Inner Wisdom Health, Titirangi (2025)

08/09/2025

We’ve been taught that many symptoms in our cycle are “normal”—but they’re not.
Painful periods, fatigue, mood swings, acne, irregular cycles… these are common, but they’re signs your body is asking for attention.

Your cycle is your health compass, reflecting not just hormones, but also stress, gut health, nutrition, and emotions.
Contraceptives may suppress symptoms, but they don’t solve the root cause.

✨ The good news? With the right support—nutrition, lifestyle, nervous system, and emotional care—your cycle can flow in harmony again.
It’s also important that your practitioner refers you or runs the tests needed to rule out other conditions like endometriosis.

✨ WATCH this space: I’m coming back to NZ soon, full of energy to reactivate consultations and workshops!

28/05/2025

Yesterday I attended a seminar that promised to talk about a “better health” for the future….
I walked in hopeful—and left with a heavy burning heart…

Because the conversation was not inclusive.
It was led through a masculine lens, disconnected from reality.
No mention or recognition of Indigenous health.
No acknowledgment of women’s health crises.
No attention to trauma, systemic inequities, or the nervous system.

Instead, we heard about fasting as a universal solution—
a diet approach that can actually harm many women.
Food was spoken about with fear, restriction, and judgment.

And it made me reflect on the deeper crisis we are in:
🧠 A global mental health emergency, especially among women
🍽 A massive rise in eating disorders and disordered eating
📉 82% of women report struggling with their relationship to food and their body
💔 Misinformation, toxic health narratives, and the absence of compassionate care are only making it worse

We are living in a moment where wellness is often sold as control.
Where healing is oversimplified into hacks, plans, and protocols that ignore the complexity of being human—especially in a body that has been silenced or dismissed.

So today I want to share what I believe in:
A model of care that feels human.
That sees the whole person, not just their symptoms.
That honors the intelligence of the body.
That recognizes that health is shaped by context, relationships, history, and culture.

— 75% of biomedical research is done on male bodies
— Most medications are tested and dosed for men, despite women being the majority of users
— Endometriosis takes 7–10 years to diagnose
— PMS affects 90% of menstruating people, yet it’s barely researched
— Only ~11% of NIH funding is allocated to women's health

This isn’t accidental—it’s systemic.

But I dream of something different.
A paradigm of care that is cyclical, slow, embodied, and grounded in respect.
That includes science, yes—but also the body’s wisdom.
That centers compassion, safety, and sovereignty.
AND WHERE EDUCATION IS IN THE CENTER ❤️

That’s what I’m here to build.
And if this message resonates with you- thank you for being part of the CHANGE.

💔 For decades, women’s health has been underestimated, misunderstood, and often reduced to just reproduction. Real pain is dismissed as "normal," deep symptoms are masked with pills, and too often we’re left without answers — just silence.

🤍 That’s why me and are building a project that aims to change this narrative — through holistic support, science-based education, and true empowerment. In all the important areas 👀

📣 Your voice matters.
We’d love for you to take a few minutes to fill out our survey. It will help us shape a space for women and people who menstruate — one rooted in wisdom, care, and connection to the body.

👉 The link to the survey is in my BIO
Thank you for being part of the change 💜

✨ What a beautiful experience to witness how everyone wanted to share their stories — how we all carry some kind of history around our bodies, and how deeply those beliefs are shaped by our families, culture, trauma, and society.
Thank you Relish festival, and for the beautiful curation of the workshop space — and for allowing me to share my passion and connect with such a beautiful community 🌱💛
We explored the roots of our relationship with the body and food
🌀 Here's a glimpse of what we covered:
🔥The Body as a Battleground of Ideas
Our bodies are not neutral. They’ve been shaped by cultural, medical, and social expectations. Many of us grow up learning how we should eat, look, and behave — often disconnected from what we truly feel or need.
⚡ Fragmentation & Disconnection
We’ve been taught that others know more about our bodies than we do. This leads to mistrust in our own signals and biology. But knowing your biology is power.
🧠Where Beliefs Are Born
Body stories come from families, friends, fitness culture, trauma, media, and more. Many are inherited and unconscious — until we begin to question them.
😶 Diet Culture & Health Myths
Diet culture moralizes food and equates weight with health, pushing restriction as willpower. But research tells us: weight is not the main determinant of health, and most diets fail long-term. We need contextual, compassionate, and culturally-informed nutrition, not black-and-white rules.
🧠 The Nervous System & Eating
Our relationship with food and hunger is deeply influenced by our nervous system. When we feel unsafe or stressed, digestion and hunger cues are dysregulated. Safety is foundational to reconnect with body trust.
💜 Embodiment as the Way Back
Embodiment means living in the body rather than observing it from the outside. It’s a practice of feeling, sensing, and responding with kindness. It’s also how we reclaim self-trust.
This was not just a workshop — it was an opportunity of remembering🌿💫

❌ No, pain it's not "normal."
❌ No, you're not exaggerating.
❌ No, your pain should not be ignored.

🌿 Endometriosis is not just a "bad period." It’s a systemic inflammatory condition that affects the entire body—disrupting immune function, the nervous system, and quality of life.

🔥 The pain is often as intense as active labor contractions.
🌙 The uncertainty of when the next flare will hit causes constant anxiety.
💫 It is physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausting.
🌻 It affects 10% of women, yet takes years to diagnose—often dismissed as "normal."

👁 You can’t always see it. Many live with endometriosis in silence because their pain is invisible to others.

💡 Surgery is not a cure. While it improves pain in some, long-term relief is not guaranteed—30-50% of cases experience pain recurrence within 5 years.

🧠 The nervous system plays a crucial role. Trauma, chronic stress, and nervous system dysregulation amplify pain and inflammation. This is not just a gynecological issue—it’s a complex condition requiring a whole-body approach.

✨ We need more than just surgery and hormones. An integral approach to manage endo can include:
✔ Pelvic floor therapy
✔ Nutrition
✔ Nervous system support
✔ Emotional & psychological support
✔ Adapted movement & exercise
✔ Supplements & herbal support
✔ Acupuncture

💜 You are not alone. Chronic pain does not define you, and you deserve compassionate care that sees your whole body, not just your symptoms.

🔍 This also means questioning the system. Maybe endometriosis isn’t explored as deeply as it should be because it forces us to challenge how women’s pain is perceived. It’s easier to blame the body than to fix the system that ignores it.

💜💜💜 Your body is not the problem

🔍 "Just listen to your body" – A very confusing and difficult idea for many....

Developing interoceptive awareness—the ability to read and respond to our body's signals—is an incredibly IMPORTANT skill.
🧠But for those who have experienced chronic stress, intense emotions, or trauma, the body can often feel like a confusing and even overwhelming place.

This might contradict what many suggest in social media, but the reality is that your body doesn't just hold wisdom. It also carries lost memories, repressed experiences, and deeply rooted emotions. All of this is stored in your nervous system, often manifesting in certain behaviors.

So, when we ask someone to "trust their body,"is much more complex than that....

A trauma-informed and nervous system-based approach involves first establishing a foundation of safety and stabilization. From there, it's about slowly, and in small doses, learning to differentiate and integrate the various signals and messages that come from the body—often with support.

The truth is, learning to trust is a continuous process, and we're all on that journey together.

From a nervous system perspective, it’s crucial to understand that our body doesn't always reflect the absolute truth. Sometimes, it reacts from a place of defense or survival. The key is learning to listen to these signals without assuming they always convey the definitive truth.
Learning to differentiate them is one of the most important parts of regulation and connection with the body 🌞

✨ In my consultations, we dive deeply into the nervous system and behaviors, fostering change slowly and in a way that allows you to learn to trust yourself. ✨
