How can slowing down to "body time" support your healing process?

There is a HUGE difference between the speed of your mind/emotions and your body. The mind moves quickly, and the emotions, while not as fast, are still far faster than the body itself.

So... what happens when you slow down to the rhythm of your body, your cycles, your womb, your tissues?

THIS is where healing happens.

When we move too quickly, we're forcing things. We can miss opportunities to receive the healing that's available for us.

And of course, this makes sense. We live in a world that is constantly requesting for us to be faster, do more, produce efficiently.

But the truth is, when we slow down, we can tune in, we can listen, we can hear our inner wisdom, we can receive nourishment and care and connection.

In today's episode, I share about a few different examples of body time.

Then I lead a 20 minute guided embodiment meditation to help you connect with your own personal wombspace time. Slow, present, connected.

Have you ever wondered if there was a connection between your menstrual cycle, hormones and ADHD or other symptoms?

I know personally I've seen a lot more inattentiveness myself during the few days leading up to my bleed. You?

But today's guest, Adele Wimsett of Harmonise You, specializes in the link between ADHD/neurodiversity and hormones, particularly in the perimenopausal years.

And she did a small clinical trial with some of her clients, tracking their hormones alongside their traits.

While she didn't find clear patterns, she did see some evidence of the importance of progesterone in easing back some of the symptoms.

We also talk about some of the other research that's been done over the past several years showing links between ADHD and things like PMDD, postpartum depression, histamine sensitivity and menstrual cycles.

It's a quick interview PACKED with gems from Adele's clinical practice and research.

I hope it provides some insights on how cycle/hormone tracking can be a missing key to unlocking some of what's behind various mind, mood and physical symptoms!

Listen to learn:

• how ADHD and various hormonal conditions may be linked
• some of the research on estrogen and ADHD traits through the cycle
• what Adele found in her own clinical research
• why she thinks progesterone is foundational in the perimenopausal years

What comes up when you hear the term "vibrational medicine"? Does it feel appealing or repelling?

I know how easy it can be to dismiss more subtle therapies, especially because so many of us are oriented to our tangible, physical senses.

But then again, I bet you've experienced energy of place, people or experiences before. The inner knowing, or feeling, that something feels good or feels off.

The subtle qualities present when hanging out with particular plants (or people).

And what about music, song, sound healing, gentle breathwork, meditation, etc?

The truth is... vibration is E V E R Y T H I N G.

So when we think about chanting mantras, it makes sense that the words themselves matter, as does the energy we cultivate while chanting.

And then there are flower essences, which are the energetic imprint of flowers captured in water on a sunny day.

These subtle practices, according to today's guest Brooke Sullivan, are potent remedies to help transform and heal our emotions and our minds.

Personally I have had particularly significant results from working with mantras before, several times. So I wanted Brooke to come and speak to them, and also to flower essences, for these wobbly times we're in.

She shares some pretty incredible stories, and drops so much wisdom throughout our conversation. I hope you love it!

Listen to learn:

• what vibrational medicine is
• how ancestral traditions always incorporated vibrational medicine
• what a mantra is, and some potent examples and stories about them
• what a flower essence is
• four flower essences that may be supportive for you in these times!
