Balance Your Cycle, Balance Your Life.

1:1 Coaching with Arya Kemeny

What Your Cycle Is Trying To Tell You

+ simple, natural steps to ease symptoms

It's time to fill your cup

The week before your period, are you tired of…

  • Snapping at your partner or coworkers and then feeling guilty two minutes later

  • Canceling plans you were genuinely excited about because now you feel antisocial, irritable, and drained—then feeling guilty for letting people down after saying yes

  • Struggling to make decisions—big ones like career or relationships, and even small ones like what to eat—because you’re out of touch with yourself and overthinking everything

  • Setting health goals, only to abandon them when that hard week hits again, and feeling like you’re starting from scratch every month

  • Watching others have the balance, energy, and focus at work that you want while wondering what’s wrong with you

  • Dragging yourself through the week with bloating, breast tenderness, fatigue, and a foggy head—feeling off in your body but trying to power through like nothing’s wrong.
  • Feeling like a totally different person the week before your period—like you’re living in extremes and nothing feels stable or in sync.

You’ve tried podcasts, supplements, and maybe even the pill or IUD. But somehow, you still find yourself back in the same place each month, telling yourself it should be different, and feeling like you’re stuck.

Hi! I'm Arya, founder of Downstairs Alchemy

Our mission is to help females alleviate their menstrual cycle symptoms, naturally & holistically.

For years, I dealt with intense period cramps, PMS that left me irritable and depressed the week before my period, hormonal acne, bloating, sore breasts, and recurring yeast infections in the second half of my cycle.

I didn’t even realize my mood changes were related to my hormones—
I just thought it was part of who I was.

I was put on hormonal birth control to manage my symptoms, but it only covered them up temporarily and made things worse in the long run. I tried restrictive diets, and spent way too much $$$ on skincare thinking it would clear the acne.

Nothing truly helped.

Everything changed when I studied naturopathy in France and learned about root causes, how the systems of the body are connected, and how to support the body instead of suppressing symptoms. Things would’ve been so much easier if I had someone like me back then—so now, I make it my mission to be that person for others.

You Don’t Have To Suffer For Any Longer

“Aside from the valuable information shared about the interaction between diet, lifestyle, and body systems, what I loved the most was Arya’s very “human” approach to the entire process.”
