The body conscious woman is fierce, strong, and powerful. She trusts her intuition, appreciates the interconnectedness of all things, offers herself expansive perspectives, and harnesses her sovereign nature. When a body conscious woman makes a decision, she moves from a place of unwavering truth, with a grounded, flexible, and fluid approach to life.
Explore the multi-layered, dynamic nature of your feminine wellness through a lens of wholeness. Reveal your unique healing path through evidence-based education, body connection practices, guided self-inquiry, and liberating perspectives. Nurture your sacred relationship with self, and reveal how this relationship impacts your entire life.
Body Conscious Woman is your companion as you come home to your body, access your feminine wisdom, and create an aligned life. Covering feminine wellness across the lifespan, from menarche to menopause, Body Conscious Woman is your holistic guide as you transition through the seasons and cycles of womanhood. Supporting you to overcome common challenges women face, and offering answers to questions often considered too delicate to discuss, this book is for any woman wanting more than the Western medical approach to wellbeing.
Access profound inner awareness, activate your intuition, and embrace a positive mind-body relationship to create a life that reflects who you are at your core.
