I love my work… it’s deeply meaningful.

But today alone, my work conversations consisted of 2 surprise deaths, a murder, in**st and various sexual assaults, the harms of patriarchy to women’s external success and men’s internal success. And wondering if balance, and thus sexual attraction, will ever be restored in heterosexual relationships.

And this is what nervous system co-regulation looks like after all of that. Puppy snuggles and cuddles.

And sometimes I dance to release. Or go to the sauna and have a full body cry.

I could numb out and not truly let the vicarious trauma and pain in, but ultimately that numbs me everywhere in my life.

It’s much more effective to truly sit with my clients and their pain, and then release it after.

In these challenging times on the planet, avoidance isn’t it. You can’t keep running, it will eventually catch you.

It’s much better to stay with yourself, to stay with each other, and transform and transmute.

What do you do to stay present, transmute, and take care of yourself so you don’t have to numb out or avoid?

If you’d like to heal this numbing pattern… instead of turning to food, drugs, alcohol, workaholism, and delulu fantasies… all the avoidance strategies… I have something coming for you in February 🌈

Today I’m coming at you sleep-deprived af but in a happy little mama bliss bubble… because isn’t this little fur baby the cutest?!?

I flew to Minneapolis to pick her up last week.. and I’m a big Prince fan so her name is Apollonia (Apple or Apple Muffin for short).

My toxic trait is I can be a pathological nurturer… when I don’t have a little vulnerable sweet one to nurture, all my Big Mama Vibes can too easily spill into the void created by grown adult humans who aren’t really adulting, showing up, or dancing in reciprocal relationship and then I get hella resentful. There… you know my shadows now.

You wanna find yours?

To drop in today:

1) Zelle $33 to hello@natashaedwina.com
2) Text (858)220-0934 for Zoom link

Join at 3:30 pm PT. Ceremony begins promptly at 3:33 by calling in the directions and ends at 4. Bring a journal!

5 things I do to stay in playfulness and magic when I’m angry with my man 🦄:

1. Write a poem, press release, or song about what he did to p**s me off and send it to him… sometimes with a sexy pic

2. Mail him telepathic letters

3. Dance out my story in 6 in heels and leather straps

4. Guide us through a past life regression with cacao to see what the REAL issue is

5. Talk to his guardian angels for some inter-dimensional diplomacy

And sometimes I just lose my shizznit the old fashioned way… channeling the collective rage of 5000 yrs of oppressed, overlooked, and overworked female ancestors across cultures.

If you are tired of the traditional models, and the one-dimensional polarity conversation… you can work with me at the soul level AND the earth level to transform, transmute, and evolve past what we’ve been shown.

There are days when joy is the thing that saves us. The laughter, the sunlight, the dancing, the ocean, the caresses, the ease… not as avoidance, but as nourishment.

Because pleasure recalibrates us.

It tells the nervous system that we’re safe. That we’re allowed to feel good. It returns color to a grayscale life.

But then there are the days we walk into the fire. The boundary. The unspoken finally spoken. The truth in our body revealed. The thing we’ve been neglecting. It can rattle us temporarily to be this courageous.

We do the hard things not to earn praise or approval, but to expand capacity and confidence. To clear energetic space for joy. To feel the bliss of release and relief.

We get to rewire patterns we once thought were permanent.

Healing requires both: The softness that soothes, and the sharpness that cuts away what holds us back.

The dance between pleasure and pain isn’t a contradiction, it’s the choreography of transformation. Of death and rebirth. Of life.

Of coming home to your true self. Your infinite soul self. We’re always on a journey.

If you’re a chocolate lover and also a mind-body health nut like me.. you will want to try this no-bake, non-dairy, full-delicious, healthy chocolate cheesecake 🫠

The wholesome ingredients make this a great luteal or menstrual week treat with sweet potatoes, healthy fats, and cacao.

I’m sending the recipe and some other mind-body treats to have you feeling extra yummy in my newsletter tonight because y’all asked for it!

Sign up at my website- you’ll also get my GutMatters ebook on nutrition and mental health! And if you’re serious about your inbox, whitelist my email so it doesn’t get lost! 💘

Other news: I also successfully went off ADHD meds.. meds were only meant to be a temporary thing while I figured out my hormones. It happened so serendipitously (though I’ve been planning to return to my juiciest self anyway), but I’d love to share with you what worked for me.

This isn’t medical or therapeutic advice, just my trial and error field research. Of course, nutrition was the biggest piece… and I created a special morning drink that tipped the scales in my favor. I’ll put that in the newsletter too!

Lastly… is it Mars in Scorpio or my Circulate+? Because I can’t get enough of my man 🔥🔥🔥 Try it out and you tell me… it’s in my links!

P.S.
I didn’t do an energy update video last week because I was soaking in all the eclipse goodness and observing the media circus and everyone losing their minds. I’ll do a video with my thoughts soon 😘 But in the meantime, don’t take the “divide and conquer” bait.. stay in your humanity!

Love,

Your favorite healer of narcissistic abuse, hypnotherapist, and mind-body science nerd 😘

Tbh I could use another 10 days here but grateful for 10 yrs of healing at the world’s only functional medicine hospital at

As I stand here on my balcony with fresh lines still on my face from my morning massage, my mind is flashing through all the ways my health could have gone very differently these last 10 yrs.

I first came to this miraculous place in 2015 for the nutrition advisor training created by the brilliant 🍏

I was going through a divorce, a PhD in Mind-Body Medicine, and transitioning from employee to F/T entrepreneur… and that’s when I learned you could get diabetes from stress alone ⚠️

Though I was eating healthy, and meditating daily, my tests showed I was right on the edge of pre-diabetes!!!

What a wake-up call 😳 I quit the job (actually 2 jobs) and started sleeping/resting more and trusting the money would come through my growing business.

Now I mentor my fellow mental health professionals and coaches to incorporate ethical & cost effective nutrition and lifestyle medicine into their practices for sustainable results! Self-careis the best preventative healthcare.

Are you interested in being certified as a Sanoviv Nutrition Advisor + immersing in a week of functional medicine health and wellness here at Sanoviv Medical Institute?

I’m sensing a pattern…

In a culture that sees “feminine” as inferior, men are not free to embrace their emotional side without rejection or shame.

A lot of boys grow up with dads who are emotionally MIA.

So mom doesn’t have a true partner- she leans on her son for support.

He becomes her little confidant, her emotional partner. But he’s not emotionally mature yet.

This can be very confusing for him, and it has a name that may trigger you: “emotional in**st”.

Fast forward: that boy becomes a man.

And without realizing it, he’s looking for the same setup in his relationships.

He wants a lover and a mother.

He craves caretaking- he saw mom mothering his dad, but he resents it at the same time (the wounded part of him that never got to freely develop emotionally unhindered by mom’s unmet emotional needs).

Example ➡️ He leaves a mess. A partner who mothers cleans it up. If she’s aware of this trap, and doesn’t want to mother him, she states her need and requests that he clean up.

Her request is resented as nagging, or control, or he rebels. He keeps her in the mother role- by refusing to move out of teenager and into personally responsible man who cares about his partner’s needs too. Dad didn’t model it. He didn’t know how. Patterns.

And his partner? She ends up exhausted, over-functioning, and wondering where the passion went.

She lost it as soon as her man slid into the role of child.. and he doubled down by staying there when she invited him to step up.

This isn’t about “bad men” or “nagging women.” It’s about ancestral cultural patterns that keep cycling below our awareness.

It’s unhealed trauma that we don’t even know we have because it wasn’t named.

But it’s slowly destroying our relationships.

The sexual desire is the first to go (some may only lose it for their partner and start an affair).

As the cycle repeats and grooves go deeper, trust and hope is lost.

In the last phase (energetic separation while still together) emotional detachment begins as self-preservation.

The good news? Patterns can be seen, interrupted, and re-written. That’s the work 🔥 But this one requires a professional.. I’m here for you ♥️
