If your bladder, belly, or pelvic floor feels off after a weekend of travel, BBQs, or broken sleep… your body might be asking for a reset — not more hustle.

Bloating, urgency, tension, and flare-ups are common after:
- Long car rides or flights
- Alcohol or dehydration
- Late nights + irregular rhythms
- Too much activity without rest

Here are a few simple ways to calm your nervous system and reconnect with your core:
- Breathwork (slow exhales = pelvic relaxation)
- Legs up the wall + gentle movement
- Hydration with electrolytes (not just water)
- A return to rhythm + mindful rest

Your pelvic floor is listening — even when your mind is on vacation.

Save this for your next post-holiday comeback this Labor day weekend.

Have you ever chased down hip tension with stretches, treated your back pain with massage or heat, or tried to strengthen your core with crunches… only to feel like you’re spinning in circles?

If so — you're not alone.

As a pelvic floor therapist and bodyworker, I see it all the time: women treating symptoms without realizing that the root of their discomfort lies deeper — in the often-overlooked foundation of the body — the pelvic floor.

There’s something sacred about the way a body softens when it feels truly safe.

As a bodyworker and pelvic floor therapist, I’ve witnessed that moment — the deep exhale, the subtle shift, the letting go — again and again. And it never loses its magic. Because healing doesn’t happen through force. It happens through safety.
This is why I love to create a safe, spa like experience and space flor my clients to truly relax. when you can release and feel totally safe that is where the healing begins. Not in a clinical setting where your body tenses up creating more stress in your body and pelvic floor. Read about my story and my approach in my latest blog post.

Flexibility over Perfection "If we don't bend we will break" Remember that some days will be smoother than others, and that's completely normal. Having a few backup plans (like freezer meals or simplified morning routines) can help you adapt when unexpected situations arise. Giving ourselves grace in times of stress can seem close to impossible but taking the time for yourself to release and rest is key in order to be able to keep going for ourselves and our families.

Let's face it getting back into the swing of things, routines, school going back in session - the fall is an amazing time of year but it is also one of the busiest times. Trying to think of self care routines on top of it all can be daunting! But building in tiny wellness breaks into the routine you have already can make a massive difference - a few stretches at your desk, a mindful walk to the mailbox, or keeping a water bottle nearby as a reminder to stay hydrated. These small acts accumulate throughout the day and don't require major schedule changes. Need some help figuring out a few small habits you can stack to keep your self care on track? Reach out today- I would love to help you build a custom routine.

“This summer, joy should be the only thing making a splash — not leaks.
If you’ve ever avoided jumping into the pool, laughing too hard, or skipping in the sand because you’re worried about bladder leaks… you’re not alone — and you’re not broken.

But here’s the truth:
Leaks are common, not normal. And they’re definitely not something you have to live with.

✨ Your body is not failing you.
✨ You don’t have to hold back or sit out.
✨ And yes — therapy can help.

Pelvic floor therapy offers real tools to rebuild strength, release tension, and restore confidence from the inside out.

Because summer fun shouldn’t come with fear.

Let’s break the stigma — and reclaim your right to swim, laugh, and move freely.”

Constipation isn’t just a gut issue — it’s often a pelvic floor story, too.

When your muscles are holding tension (especially in the pelvic floor or abdomen), it can make it harder to go — leading to bloating, discomfort, and that heavy, stuck feeling.

The good news?
Gentle movement and breath work can help release that pressure and support smoother digestion from the inside out.

Try this:

- A short walk after meals
- Diaphragmatic breathing (belly expands on inhale, softens on exhale)
- Child’s pose with deep breaths into your lower belly

Your gut and pelvic floor are on the same team — and when one is stressed, the other feels it.

Support both with softness, not force.
