There is no greater feeling for me than the feeling of empowering women to understand their bodies and feel at home in their skin. This lovely email is shared with permission from one of my hypothalamic amenorrhea clients. After losing her period, she worked so darn hard and not only got it back in 3 months but also this..... 💖 . “!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM CRYING TEARS OF JOY WHIL TYPING THIS. thank you for helping me understanding my body and love it so much more than I ever have. I can’t explain how blessed I feel to have the information that I have and I will take it with me throughout my whole life. I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING! “

In every walk in nature one receives more than she seeks -adapted from Muir . . . Spending time with the people that fill my heart up (thanks for that @geoffbhill), having some wild adventures, challenging my body just slightly beyond its former limits, laughing till it hurts and eating ice cream from the tub. That’s my kind if weekend. What do you do to feed your soul? It’s so easy to get caught up in the grind of life, that sometimes we forget to do things for ourselves. One thing I teach all my clients is to set aside some time for themselves in nature every week. It doesn’t have to be alpine climbing 😆! It could be a forest walk, swim in a lake or even just reading a book by a river... these all have deep meaning and value and are perhaps one of the most important things you can do for your health ❤️
