I remember a long while back listening to someone (though I can't recall who) share how trying to recover from an eating disorder in the society/culture we live in is near synonymous with an individual battling alcoholism trying to recover living in a bar.

And woooo-ee did that hit.

Many moons later, here is my rendition.
Both ice cream, but different flavors.

If you take one thing from this post, I hope it is this-

The invitation to come back home is always there for you🌷

It doesn't matter how long it's been.
It doesn't matter how deep the wounds.
It doesn't matter how broken you feel.
It doesn't matter if you can't feel that as truth right now.

She remembers. Your body remembers.

Wishing you a life of FULLness, ALIVEness, and one that is EMBODIED🤝

It is only going to get harder in the world we live in, I fear.

But we can choose it for ourselves- one small choice at a time, one hour, day, week at a time.

Healing generations before and after us🌱

Rooting for you, always🌷

It's time for a remembrance...

Of a woman's body as her compass.
Of a woman's intuition as science.
Of a woman's cycle as sacred.
Of a woman's lived experience as evidence.
Of a woman's knowing as truth.

Somewhere along the way, a woman's lived experience, her values, her BODY, seem to have been removed from evidence based medicine.

Dismissal of worry surrounding absent menstrual bleeds— "it's normal" she's told, "we will have you start birth control to regulate your cycles".

Something within her feels unsettled. She knows.

A diagnosis of unexplained infertility— "your only option is IVF".

The whisper within says "there's something more". She knows.

Inner turmoil, angst, emotional rollercoasters, PMS, something isn't quite right— "let's start you on an antidepressant".

She feels a disconnect. Is this truly the answer? She knows.

Low desire, absent libido, pain with s3x— "this is normal in long term relationships...drink some wine, just relax".

Her v***a tells a different story. There's an inner voice within. She knows.

It's time to call out the systems that dismiss the wisdom of a woman's body.

Systems trained to fear what they don't understand.

A woman who is fully embodied, fully alive, fully connected to her life force...

Is powerful.
Is untamed.
Is a threat.

It's time to come back home to your body, to her.
It's time to listen to the whispers.
It's time to reclaim your power.

It's time to remember...

Your body is the evidence.

There is no black + white.
There is nuance.
There is benefit to a variety of approaches/care.
This is not polarizing.
This is a call for more *curiosity*.

This is a call for deeper attunement in your conception journey.

Relationships, intimacy, pleasure, receiving.
The wisdom and communication of your body.
Congruence between what you say, and how you live.
Processing, tending to, integrating unresolved emotions, trauma, wounds.

All of this ^ *deeply* matters and is deeply impactful.

But, you probably haven't been asked about nor explored it.

Does this resonate with you? Do any of the questions in particular hit home?💭

I would love to hear.

Rooting for you, always🌱

Let's talk about true root cause.

Simply removing the very behaviors you adapted to keep you safe can lead to more felt sense of *threat* in the body.

Re-nourishing and coming to a place of energy abundance + availability is a non-negotiable, but how you get there can either support and nourish your nervous system in feeling SAFE, or further perpetuate a fight/flight/freeze response.

It can be the difference between temporary recovery vs. finding yourself back in the throes of HA months or years down the road.

How do you want to reclaim your magic?

Does this resonate with you? I'd love to hear⬇️

Balancing effort with ease.

​​Modifying your exercise regimen and/or approach is often a necessary measure to take during HA recovery as exercise can further contribute to a low energy availability state and perpetuate stress on the system.

You may wish to maintain intense exercise in recovery and counteract the energy expended with an even greater increase in caloric intake, however, I would strongly encourage some reflection in this circumstance…
The inability to be flexible with exercise suggests a dependence, or compulsion, which deserves gentle + compassionate attention to achieve true liberation.

As with many things, finding balance and harmony is key.

Save this for later as a reminder of the power of the cool down🌀

If exercise is the summer, the cool down is the winter.
If exercise is the inhale, the cool down is the exhale.
If exercise is the contraction, the cool down is the expansion.
If exercise is the work, the cool down is the rest.
If exercise is the doing, the cool down is the being.
If exercise is the yang, the cool down is the yin.
Think of your cool down as the closing ritual that whispers to your body, I am safe.

Rooting for you, always—

Something hits different re-sharing this letter to my younger self this year, with my daughter here💜

I'm so proud of younger me.

"Most of all, I hope you know you are enough—
Just as you are.
You always have been, and you always will be."

Can we take a collective sigh💨

Ahhhhh.

This post felt appropriate with a lot of charged energy circulating right now.

Every inhale needs an exhale.
Every contraction needs a relaxation.
Balance. Harmony.
Safety.

Being stuck in an inhale can be a physical manifestation of being stuck in a sympathetic-dominant state.

A body that is in a chronic state of protection mode.
A body that lacks trust.
A body that lacks safety.

Bring it back to the breath.
Your body holds the wisdom.

Welcome in some curiousity...what's coming up for you?💭

Rooting for you, always✨ Em
