Yoga For Premenstrual Tension
Symptoms
A long list of symptoms have been attributed to PMT. Some of the more common ones are: headache, bloated feeling, weight gain, breast tenderness, back or lower abdominal pain, irritability or aggression, depression and anxiety, mood swings, tiredness, and/ or poor concentration and they may become accident prone.
No-one knows the exact cause of PMT suggested cause is abnormal sensitivity to hormones. Some women may be more sensitive to the normal levels of the hormone progesterone released into the blood during the second half of the menstrual cycle. One effect of over-sensitivity to progesterone is a reduced level of a brain chemical called seroton in, which is involved in controlling mood. According to yoga this is seen as exaggerated manomaya kosa activity which is. excessively speeded up loop of thoughts in the mind in response to demanding situations ( external or internal). This speed of thoughts when maintained over a long period of time can manifest as uncontrolled disturbances of PMT at the psychological level. Emotional upsurges and outbursts are typical manifestations of this uncontrolled speed. Over a period of time this disturbed balance in manomaya, kosa level results in prana imbalances. The excessive prana blocks the nadis and settles down in the reproductive system as PMT. Although the PMT appears to be related to menstrual cycle it is a manifestation of a generalism balance. Women with excessive vata prakriti tend to have more symptoms of PMT.

symptoms
A woman can do several things that may improve the symptoms of PMT.
Avoiding stressfully demanding situations at home and work in the time before a period is due. Get away from the irritating situation for a few minutes to a solitude, practice Kapalabhati (40/min) for 2 minutes, followed by one cycle of Nadisuddhi and Bhramari chanting. This would have cooled down your emotion and when you get back to the same demanding situation you will be a different person. The reaction would have changed to a much softer one almost to the level of tolerance if not full acceptance as a yogi.
