Welcome back to DAY 2 of Refresh Your Hormones! Quick! Grab a friend to join with you... it's so much better to do these things with your girlfriends.
We're back together today and I wanted to meet you where you are at. If you're here, you've likely started "doing" things that you *thought* would help you, but they seemingly aren't doing as much as you had hoped.
Let's talk about the emotional and spiritual side of who we were created to be as women, and how we can lean more into the way our bodies were meant to work and to heal.
When we lean into our feminine energy a little more in our motherhood, nutrition, hormone balance journey it really helps us to shift out of the restriction mindset, the perfectionist mindset and to be more in tune with what our bodies are telling us and WHY.
Physically the pituitary gland in the brain runs the show when it comes to stress and how your body responds to stress, and it speaks directly to the adrenals and the ovaries. These hormone systems are speaking to each other, and if your body is not getting signals of safety, it directly affects the way your body makes and detoxes hormones because it will prioritze keeping you safe.
In this episode:

• [03:32] Why does it feel like I'm doing something wrong or my approach is wrong because I still have symptoms...
• [06:01] Masculine Energy vs. Feminine Energy
