October 30, 2023158. How to reconnect with your intuition
"I wish I lived a life true to myself, not the life that other people expected of me." In her book The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying, hospice nurse Bronnie Ware shares that this is the #1 regret of people on their deathbeds. Living a life true to yourself is living a life guided by your intuition. Yes, it will protect you from what's not aligned for you, but it will also always draw you toward what you Love. We cannot live a life we actually like unless we are connected to our intuition.

In this episode, you'll learn:
what exactly is intuition?

what's the difference between instinct and intuition?

4 different types of intuition and how to know which type you have

4 ways you can reconnect with your intuition

October 16, 2023156. The pregnant magic of waiting
Are you in a period of waiting right now? It can feel so hard, unfair, frustrating, annoying, and generally unpleasant to WAIT. We typically don't associate waiting with being magical, but I know I did when I was pregnant. It was my first experience in life where I understood and truly accepted the waiting period to be "as Nature intended it."

In this episode, we'll talk about:
why you might find yourself in a season of waiting right now

the energies of the first, second, and third trimesters of waiting

4 actual things you can do that will serve you while you're waiting

October 03, 2023154. Grief and pain as helpers
On Friday morning, I woke up to a text with the shocking news that a dear friend of mine had passed away.
You may not be currently grieving a lost loved one, but we are all grieving something. A loss of a relationship, a resource, a part of our identity, a part of our ability or mobility, anything. Chances are, if you’re feeling numb, angry, blaming, or sad, you’re grieving.
What if grief was a resource to us, a helper? An ally and not a bully?

October 02, 2023153. How to reconnect with Nature
Wild Wellness is about coming home to the wisdom of Nature and your Intuition to create a life you actually like. Sounds enchanting, doesn't it? But HOW do we actually do that?
On this episode I'm talking all about how to reconnect with Nature and how it actually enables you to create a life you like.
And why the opposite is also true: being disconnected from Nature makes it impossible to experience the fullness of joy and pleasure available to us in this life.
You'll learn about:
connecting to the Earth through grounding, eating nutrient-dense foods, and learning body techniques to regulate your nervous system

connecting with the Sun through aligning your circadian rhythms to natural light and your circannual rhythms with the current season of the year

connecting with the Moon through aligning your menstrual cycle / feminine energy with your feelings, intuition, nutrition, action plans

September 18, 2023151. How to celebrate and sync with the autumn equinox and realign with Nature
Being "out of alignment" is always the root cause of our problem, and the misalignment can be biological, psychological, social, and/or spiritual, and often all of them.
Starting to come back into alignment with Nature, even in the smallest and simplest ways, makes a profound difference in how we feel, and it gives us the energy we need to tackle some of the larger steps of coming back into alignment. Plus, it's honestly fun and enjoyable! It gives us a huge boost in the short-term AND the long-term.
The autumn equinox is coming up on Sep. 23, and it's a perfect time to celebrate and sync ourselves with the wisdom of Nature.
In this episode:
What are circadian, infradian, and circannual rhythms? How they are encoded into us even in the absence of triggers from our environment like light and temperature

What is the Wheel of the Year? How everyone from witches to Christians are invited to and benefit from celebrating these earth-based holidays of the solstices, equinoxes, and their mid-points each year

3 journal/discussion prompts to orient your inner world (psychological, emotional, spiritual) to the symbolism of this time of the year

3 ideas to orient your outer world (biological, physiological, and social) as well
