I stopped by the public library today and learned that they allow patrons to check out light boxes for sadness during the fall/winter months in Ohio.
More and more I am convinced that public libraries (and those who work there) are some of the best of us.

The @WHO said, “WHO calls for menstrual Health to be recognized, framed and addressed as a health and human rights issue, not a hygiene issue” (hubs.ly/Q01hMVMx0). We at DfG are excited for this recognition of menstrual health’s human and global importance.

This is an interesting myth we heard through our research for our book!
The truth is, eating lemons actually doesn't reduce the length of your period 😀

Did you know the average menstruating person spends 3,000 days on their period? That’s equivalent to 8+ years! We're on a mission to make sure #EveryGirlEverywherePeriod spends those 3,000 days chasing her dreams - no longer held back by the limitations of #periodpoverty.
