**An Invitation to Reset—Gently and Intentionally**

Your body is wise.

When your hormones feel “off,” it’s not a sign that something’s broken — it’s a sign that your system is seeking rhythm, nourishment, and restoration.

At KAI Acupuncture, we created the 7-Day Hormonal Reset Plan as a loving pause button. It’s not a crash diet or a quick fix. It’s a slow exhale. A way to come back to your body with care.

This free guide is your permission slip to simplify, soften, and realign. Whether you’re managing stress, fatigue, painful cycles, or emotional ups and downs, this 7-day plan is a beautiful place to start.

Here’s how to use it — and why it works.

What the 7-Day Hormonal Reset Is (and Isn’t)

This is not:

A restrictive cleanse
A complicated protocol
Something to “get perfect”

This is:

A gentle rhythm of rituals, meals, rest, and reflection
Designed to support your hormonal health naturally
Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, nervous system support, and lifestyle alignment

You’ll find simple tools like:

Warm lemon water rituals
Suggested meals (rooted in warmth + nourishment)
Gentle movement cues
Sleep hygiene tips
Acupressure and breathing practices
Daily journaling prompts

Think of it as 7 days of returning to center.

How to Use the Workbook

You can download the workbook [here], print it out or follow along digitally. Each day includes:

Morning

Warm Lemon or Ginger Tea: A simple start that supports digestion and gently wakes the system.
Breathe + Set an Intention: Pause for a few deep belly breaths. Ask, “How do I want to feel today?”

Midday

Nourishing Meals: Prioritize warm, grounding foods — soups, steamed greens, root vegetables, and healthy fats like avocado, flax, or tahini.
Slow Down While You Eat: Digestion begins with presence. Breathe between bites. Chew. Feel into the nourishment.

Evening

Screen-Free Wind Down: Begin unplugging by 9 p.m. if possible.
10:00–10:30 p.m. Bedtime: According to Chinese Medicine, this honors your Kidney and Liver meridians — guardians of hormones and energy.
Journaling Prompt: Reflect, release, or offer gratitude. Each day includes a suggested prompt like:“What am I learning to trust in my body?” or“What needs to soften in my routine?”

Daily Practices & Themes

Each day also offers a focus or affirmation, such as:

“Rest is reproductive.”
“My body deserves rhythm.”
“Slow is strong.”

You don’t need to do everything perfectly. Simply showing up to these practices is enough.

Who This Reset Is For

This plan is perfect for you if:

You feel tired, wired, or overwhelmed
You experience hormonal symptoms (PMS, irregular cycles, mood shifts, acne)
You’re navigating perimenopause or post-birth depletion
You’re preparing for fertility or coming off birth control
You simply want to feel more in tune with your body

You don’t need a diagnosis to deserve balance.

What Makes This Plan Different?

Most hormone plans focus on testing or supplements. While those can be useful, true hormonal health starts with nervous system regulation + daily rhythms.

This reset supports:

Liver Qi – which helps process emotions and metabolize hormones
Spleen Qi – which governs digestion and energy levels
Kidney essence (Jing) – the root of reproductive vitality
Heart + Shen – the emotional anchor of your cycle

It’s holistic. It’s seasonal. And it’s based on the belief that you don’t need to fix your body — you need to hear it more clearly.

Bonus: Acupressure Tips for Each Day

Each day in the plan includes optional acupressure to support stress, cramps, or flow. These are easy to do at home — no needles, just your own two hands.

Some examples include:

Spleen 6 (inner ankle): reproductive and digestive balance
Pericardium 6 (inner wrist): calming anxiety, easing nausea
Liver 3 (top of foot): soothing irritability and stuck energy
Kidney 1 (bottom of foot): grounding, especially before bed

Apply gentle pressure for 30–60 seconds while breathing slowly.

What to Expect During the 7 Days

Clients often report:

Improved digestion and elimination
Less bloating and brain fog
Calmer moods and better sleep
Greater awareness of emotional patterns
A renewed sense of connection to their body

Remember: this is just the beginning. These 7 days re-pattern your system — and can be repeated monthly or seasonally.

Pairing the reset with acupuncture is one of the most powerful things you can do.

In-clinic, we will tailor your treatment to:
