A menstrual cycle is the monthly series of changes a woman’s body goes through in preparation for the possibility of pregnancy. It is a hormonal driven cycle which is no joke for women as it comes with the baggage of pain and inconvenience we all have to endure.
Manjushree Ahirrao, Co-Founder, Vastu Raviraj told HerZindagi that "an understanding of the relationship between psychiatric disorder and menstrual characteristics is important in the assessment and cure of women. Menstrual cycle regularity and length have significant associations with specific current and lifetime psychiatric disorders. There are certain guidelines according to Vastushastra for women to keep a natural flow of energy at home. A woman makes a house, she strikes a balance between her social and religious responsibilities as she shoulders a wide variety of tasks at home. Vastu shastra helps to solve business, financial, physical and mental problems."
Here are a few remedial measures that menstruating women can incorporate in their daily life to get some relief, as suggested by Manjushree.
The Sleeping Direction
To get relief during periods females should sleep in the southwest direction.
Defects In South West Direction

Similarly, issues in the North-East direction implies a cut in the NE direction. Having a toilet or kitchen in the NE direction creates health problems in women related to the uterus.
