The mind is a powerful tool that we can use for or against ourselves. We all have a critical voice in our heads that lead us to believe the stories of insufficiency (not having enough, or that we are not good enough for example). The good news is that there is another way we can use this powerful tool in our lives- one that will support us.

It's only $54/month for four live energy sessions, resources for rest, and a compassionate supportive community.

We've been taught to believe that rest is a reward. That we can only rest IF we finish all the things, and as long as someone doesn't need us. This is toxic patriarchy, and there is another way to think about rest. Let's talk about the other possibility and how we can live our lives from a place of unconditional rest.   Let's change your relationship with rest, and yourself.

Society has conditioned women to believe that we need to keep doing in order to be loved. That doing may look like losing weight, being pretty, being smart, having a beautifully organized and picture perfect home, being the right amount of whatever without being arrogant. This causes us to constantly be doing to seek approval, belonging, and love.  What's actually true is the opposite. Being instead of doing is the antidote. It's time to detox from the constant messages of "doing" in today's world.

That voice in your head that says "I don't want to" is really resistance. Noticing and becoming aware of the resistance is like following the yellow brick road to what you really want. Sometimes the resistance is because you are doing something you think you should be doing, and sometimes it is pointing you back to what is going to really serve you in your life. Want to know how to tell the difference? Listen in to this week's episode of Whole Body Upgrade.

I’ve been noticing a lot of turmoil in my life. I’ve been going through some health issues lately and getting frustrated with the lack of knowledge and answers. I’m finding myself going through my processes again and using the 5 wellness bodies to see what’s out of alignment. What’s happening physically, emotionally, mentally, energetically, and spiritually?

Sometimes answers aren’t forthcoming, and that’s ok. No matter what, I’m showing up for myself with compassion and love. I can only do the best that I can at this moment. Each moment is another opportunity to show up for myself the best I can.

I had a magical moment with my refrigerator the other week. There’s been a problem with the fridge for some time now that my husband and I have been avoiding. Everything was still functioning but there was a small drip happening that let us know something wasn’t right.

After weeks of this, we finally looked at each other and decided we had to do something. My husband got to fixing the leak and  I threw out anything that had been in there for too long and started cleaning. At the end of the day, there was magic in that moment. The leak was fixed and the fridge looked amazing! I felt more calm and frankly even felt more organized in my life. It’s like my own life got a reboot.

I realized that this is exactly how life works. My experience has been that something little needs attention and we ignore it over and over for a variety of reasons. You may not know how good you can feel, but I do. I know how good it can be for you and I want to show you that you can be clear, certain, and inspired in your life.

What is balance really? I find that the term is so often misused. Society uses it as a way to keep up old habits or bad habits that they’re not quite ready to get rid of. However, being balanced is more about caring for your body and providing what it needs. I want to challenge you to start creating balance in a way that will protect your body and your energy. Listen to this week’s episode to find out how.

Are you truly caring for yourself the in the way that you deserve? In this week’s episode I talk about different ways to care for yourself and how to learn to treat yourself as the sacred life force that you are. 

So many times, perfectionism is holding us back from the healthy changes we want to make. Looking at where we are vs. where we want to be can be daunting and overwhelming. And then, when we take those initial steps, the first mistake tends to send people spiraling back into their old habits. How do we fix this? We remember that compassion and progress are much more effective than doing it perfectly.

Your health and purpose are directly correlated. So many times, I encounter clients who are in survival mode - everything they do and every decision they make is just to get by. Everyone experiences this at some point in time, but when you can transition out of that mode, you start to see the possibilities for your health and for your life are endless.

Sometimes a perspective shift is all that we need. For years, I was unhappy with my body and the way it looked, but over time, I realized how amazing my body is and that it can truly do incredible things. In this episode, I talk about being in awe and wonder of the world, how it can change your perspective, and how to start practicing on your own. 

When I was diagnosed with PCOS I knew that traditional medicine was not the right path for me. I was determined to find a better way, a way that has an all-encompassing view of the body and what it needs. This is what led me to create my Centered Wellness Framework which has helped me and others through many health struggles and is something I want to share with anyone who is feeling stuck or overwhelmed with their health.

If you're focused on that "one thing" that you believe is holding you back, you may be going about it all wrong. So many times, what is holding you back is not exactly what you think it is. In this episode I dive into the root problems of what is actually holding you back from making positive change and how to solve them.  

When things are difficult and challenging, you may find it hard to do the things you know will support you. And it is exactly in that moment when we need to show up for and take care of ourselves. In this episode, I talk about what it looks like and the how of learning to commit to yourself. 

Many of my clients can’t quite see what’s on the other side of the current challenges they are dealing with, and they don’t believe that they have the ability to change. They don’t see what’s possible on the other side of the transformation yet. There is enough awareness that there current experience is not what they want. They know there has to be a better way. And yet, many of them hold stories about themselves or about what’s possible. They seem more like a fact in their heads about what is REALLY TRUE. They are arguing for their limitations.They are fighting for the idea of who they are now, not the possibility of what could happen and who they could be.

Talking to the trees and being in connection with nature is a particularly powerful healing source. In this episode, you'll learn the value of being in nature, how to listen to the trees, and the value of being in reciprocity. Don't live near the woods? You can do this with any tree, bush, or flower around your home!

Many women give away their power. What do I mean by power? The power of speaking what you really want, making decisions, and telling people what you need. Women have a history of giving away the power - often because they have been conditioned this way by the patriarchy and the systems in place to purposefully keep women down-- and how it manifests is wanting to be accepted, wanting to belong, not want to get anyone angry. Often women don’t want to rock the boat! What you may not know is that it's not just emotional; it’s an energetic giving away of a part of who you are and what you want. When you decide that "it’s fine" and not state what you really want, or to not use your voices, or you are silenced in some way, you are giving a way a part of your energetic self. Don't give away that power that you have that is YOU. 

I hear many people say that they want things to be different or they want to feel better or they want clarity, and yet they don’t have the tools. With the tools I have learned over the years, I can offer a new way of looking at things for them. Some people are all in and have reached a point where they just can’t continue to live life the way they have been living it. They are all in. They make space for the inner work they need to do and they make room for the outer work (like changing the food). There is a commitment. In this episode, I talk about what being "All In" on your health looks like and why support is so important. 

When my mind is overly active and telling me all that is wrong, the quickest way to peace is through surrender. Surrender is a sacred practice and one that no only allows your mind to rest, but also allows the space for change and for solutions to come thorough If you mind is filled with worry, there’s no room for love and solutions to appear. If you mind is filled with love, if your mind is filled with this knowing that you can offer it, that you don’t have to do it all yourself, then solutions do appear.

Outrageous Openness, By Tosha Silver: https://amzn.to/3aZSgtu

This episode is all about listening deeply to help your health and wellness. When you listen deeply you are listening to your body and the messages provided. These can show up in lots of different ways. It could be the pain in your side, the heaviness in your chest or the lightness throughout your body. When you notice there is a sinking in your stomach, listening deeply is about seeing what message that sensation has for you. This could be emotional, energetic, and can be connected to thoughts and beliefs that we have. These thoughts can be our own or could be passed down from ancestral beliefs, or past lives. Listening deeply is listening to what is needed in this moment in any of the wellness bodies- typically we tend to pay more attention to the physical symptoms first. Sometimes this listening deeply is also about what the body needs- movement, more vegetables, less inflammatory foods. We can listen to the body on all levels, and that listening offers opportunities for healing, health and wellness. Listen in to learn how to listen deeply to help create health and wellness. 

This episode is all about setting yourself up for YES. What do i mean by that? So often when we want to make a change, we find that we need to say 'no' to the old habits or patterns that we have be relying on. This could be thoughts in our heads or food that we reach for or ways to deal with emotions. This can be really challenging if you find that you have to say 'no' all the time when you are used to saying YES. And in fact you can feel like a young kid. In this episode, you'll find out ways to say YES that still make you feel good about how you are treating your body. 

In this episode, I talk about how and why managing the energy wellness body is hugely beneficial in your health and wellness. By managing your energy, you’ll find that you get stuck less often and that you have more energy. The bonus is you you won’t be as exhausted all the time! Listen in to learn how to manage your energy body. 

In this 4 part series, How To Make Sustainable Change, we’ve been talking about change and how to make change in steps that are sustainable- and not just sustainable in the “I’ve got to get this done” but in ways that are kind and compassionate. So far we’ve talked about self-compassion/gratitude as the first step to change, and then we talked about the mind, and last episode we discussed the importance of energy to making change. This week we are going to talk about compassionate self-discipline. Find out what that means and how to tie all the steps together to make change towards health and wellness in your life.

We are made of energy and if you don't know how to manage energy, you can pick it up in other places or from other people. We as a society haven’t been taught how to manage energy because we weren’t taught that we ARE energy bodies so we don’t know how to keep our energy to ourselves or check to see if other people have given their energy to us. Energy is another hidden piece of making change that we'll explore in Part 3 of How to make sustainable change.

In Part 2 of the 4 part series in creating sustainable change is the HOW. How to make long term change in your life with kindness. This episode I talk about a piece that you may have noticed in the last episode- it’s the thoughts that we have or the conversation we have in the head. This is the HOW to change how we feel about ourselves, but also what you are believing. The conversation in your head as a major part of change that is kind and compassionate. One of the biggest changes I find that my clients need to make in moving towards health and wellness is not just the food they are eating but the conversations they are having in their head. When you change the conversation in your head, you change your emotions, which change the actions you take each day.

We have a choice between choosing the shadow and the light. This solstice light a candle, or have a fire (safely) in the backyard, somehow connect with that divine light that is within you and EVERY single person that is on this earth. You come from light, you are the light, and there is nothing wrong with you.

Each day, we are either making decisions that are going to serve our future health and wellness, or they are serving the immediate wants that we have now. This episode talks about the “broke” health decisions and how they influence your life, and the "upgrade" health decisions that put you in a place to upgrade your health. You'll learn how each decision brings you closer to becoming your future self, and how to make more upgrade decisions, and how they are investments you put in your health bank account that will give you so many good health dividends. 

Most of us fill our days with social media, news, junk food, caffeine, work, with a side of a constant conversation of self-pressure and doubt. I’ve heard the phrase “Life is made up of moments” and if those moments are what make us up, we’re filled with coffee, wine, and negativity. What does that leave space for? Frankly, not much. And for some this is exactly the life that want- and that is totally fine!  For me though, I want more. I want space. I want space to decide what I want in my life. And I also what space to see what might want to happen. I want space to dream. I want space to allow things to enter into my life and delight me. And that space, is where all the magic happens.

Boundaries aren’t just for saying “no”- we need them in all parts of our bodies. This episode is about using the five wellness bodies to create healthy boundaries creates more space in your life to feel better and have more energy.

When big changes or transitions come about, when the daily to do list slows down, many women notice that they don’t know who they are- who they really are. They notice a feeling of not being whole, or feeling disconnected from their body, or not knowing what they want in life. In this episode we'll all about how to find yourself again. 

The secret to change is that you have to become a whole new you. The person you are now, has to learn to do things differently, one small step at a time. Each little step adds up, until one day, you realize you have become a whole new you. You've become your future self. Want to meet your future self? Listen in and you'll learn why part of the change process includes becoming a new you, and meet your future self.

In this episode, we talk about how accepted a woman's pain is in the western society. Oh, it's because we're aging, or because we've been in a car accident, or because we have children. We need to accept that we will be in chronic pain for the rest of our lives. Or.... do we? No! Let's talk about exactly how good it can get and how much better you can feel. It is attainable for you.

In this episode, we talk about how to tell if you are ready to start your whole body upgrade by determining which of the four phases of change you are in.  You can connect with me on a free chat by following this link.

Your body has a lot to tell you. Many times, messages from your body can hold the key to things you are struggling with in your life. But - we aren't really used to listening for the messages! It requires finding stillness and witnessing yourself without judgement. So, together, we will close out this episode with an exercise in deep body listening.

Many women try to make changes using knowledge and willpower, only to find they aren't enough to make big (or even small!) changes. What happens in your mind when you try to change your eating habits? We'll talk about why it's so challenging to stop eating things we know aren't serving us, and how we can gently start to reframe and try in a different way.

In this episode I talk about self-compassion: What it is, what happens when you are not compassionate toward yourself, and some (small and gentle!) actionable steps you can take right now to start practicing.

In this episode, we explore the case of one of my former clients. Faced with a surgery she wanted to avoid, she instead created new rituals of self-love and crafted a deeper relationship with her body and with food.

Getting unstuck is the primary wish most clients have when we start working together. Last week's episode I  talked about how important energy is to getting unstuck. In this episode I'll talk about getting unstuck using a different wellness body, that has some overlap with the energetic wellness body.  I'll be talking about the spiritual wellness body and why this wellness body is so important for removing the stuckness that so many women feel. Listen in to learn how you can identify unbalance in the spiritual wellness body so you can get unstuck, feel better, and have more energy. 

Physical pains, stubborn emotions, even recurrent thoughts are all problems that my clients and students experience. The good news is that they often see relief when we clear the Energy Wellness Body. The Energetic Wellness Body is a critical part to health and wellness and unfortunately, many people in the US don't know about it. Listen in to this podcast as I talk about this little known concept of energy, and how it can help you feel more vibrant. 

Today I'll teach you how to build a strong foundation of health and well-being. The last few episodes talked about systems and paradigms  crumbling and falling apart, and this is about building something new. Many people have pieces and parts of wellness and this episode offers a way to make it a strong foundation for your life, using the Centered Wellness Framework.

The world is changing before our eyes. It’s in a state of turmoil, and I believe it is also the great undoing of generations of systemic problems. While it’s so hard to watch it all unfolding while fighting for the values we want to see, it’s offering us an amazing opportunity. This episode is all about how there's a shift happening to new systems, both externally and internally. 

Today we'll talk about the underlying problem with the "Treat Yourself" culture that surrounds us. Women are often sold the message that if you've had a hard day you need to "Treat Yourself" with a reward (usually sugar or wine).  I'll talk about how it's a false sense of self-care and what you can do instead to take care of yourself. 

Many of my clients and friends have been struggling lately, and I'm no exception. This episode is all about how to use the 5 Wellness Bodies (with real examples) to help when things are really hard- like during a global pandemic! *Note, I to use a few choice words in this episode, so wear headphones if listening around young or sensitive ears*.

Have you ever noticed that our current systems here in the US are designed to sustain a problem? In this episode, I'll talk about how different systems in our culture are currently perpetuating a problem, and how we have the power to change now to make a difference in our own health. 

Do you feel stuck?

 In this episode, we'll talk about what does it mean to be stuck and use the 5 Wellness Bodies to spot where the stuckness is located.
