IMAGINE…a sacred space for women to (re)define and pursue wellness on our own terms, directed by internal wisdom rather than external prescription.
IMAGINE…mindfully exploring how to care for ourselves considering how our trauma, both collective and individual, affects our wellness journey.
IMAGINE…examining our habits, patterns, behaviors and beliefs through a lens of radical self-compassion, shifting conditioned criticism to courageous curiosity.
IMAGINE…embracing a new paradigm of wellness that authentically empowers us and our communities rather than sustaining capitalism, patriarchy and white supremacist culture.
Let’s face it, the wellness thing is tricky these days. Conflicting information abounds! For example: “Go plant-based!” but also, “Keto’s the ticket.” or, “You should fast first thing each day.” then it’s, “Eat breakfast or you’ll wreck your metabolism!” then there’s, ” You gotta lift weights, no…yoga!, wait-walking is all you need.” All these confusing messages can leave us feeling less than and super stressed. Furthermore, few wellness programs are trauma-informed, nor do they address the damage diet culture (and the oppressive systems it stems from) has done to our mental health and relationships with food, our bodies, exercise, rest and more.
This is why we’ve created Wise Woman Wellness: an innovative wellness community.
