When Holistic Healing Leaves the Body Out
A lot of women in holistic spaces say they honor the mind, body and spirit. But the body usually gets invited in last. It gets a seat at the table only after the fatigue,
After the weight gain,
After the anxiety,
After the insomnia,After the body has been whispering, nudging, and finally screaming for attention.
We will cleanse. Journal. Pull…

Over-functioning women do not know how anxious they are because anxiety looks like productivity on them.
It looks like planning, fixing, monitoring, remembering everything, helping everyone, staying busy enough to avoid feeling.
From the outside, it looks responsible. From the inside, it feels like “If I stop managing all of this, everything will…

Nobody checks on the woman who looks capable. They assume she is fine because she handles things.
Because she knows what to do.
Because she keeps going.
Because she does not fall apart in public.
But being “the strong one” often means you learned very early that your needs were less important than your function.
So you became…

There is a difference between falling apart and no longer being able to hold yourself together the old way.
Over-functioning women are praised for being strong when what they really are is over-responsible, overextended, and emotionally under-supported.
So now that your body is tired, your patience is thin and your old coping methods are not…

I’ll be honest— I’ve tried to 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 “spring energy” in January before. It didn’t make my habits better. 𝗜𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗺𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁.
Forcing it creates a very specific vibe- 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗵𝗼𝗴 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆.
Wake up behind → make a dramatic “new me” plan before coffee → crash by Thursday → 𝗥𝗘𝗣𝗘𝗔𝗧
And then you call it “lack of discipline.”
No. It’s just a stupid…

I sat down to “work.” Then management arrived.
Apparently the correct way to build a business is:
1. Open laptop
2. Pull up your blueprint
3. Get emotionally supported by a warm, purring paperweight who insists you stop forcing life
So if you’ve been trying to power-through January like it’s a productivity contest, consider this your…

I guess I could look better than I do…
for a 55-year-old personal trainer.
I gained 10 lbs this year.
Not because I was careless.
Because I was grieving.
Not hydrating.
Not sleeping.
Not eating.
You know that cycle.
And still… this body has carried me through.
Depression in my teens — the start of the yo-yo.
By 19, I was anorexic. My boyfriend had…

New year hype is fading. Now it’s just you, your body, and what you’re actually willing to do.
The first two weeks of January are loud.
Motivation.
Challenges.
This is my year.
By mid-month, the noise dies down.
And you’re left with something much quieter.
What am I actually willing to do…
on a random Thursday…
when no one’s watching…
and I’m tired…
