10 Things I wish women knew about their bodies
I remember when I first started learning about women’s health, nutrition and physiology in an effort to heal myself, I was so utterly and completely fascinated with everything I was learning, clearly this is one of the reasons I do what I do today.
Can you believe we were taught how to make stuffed animals in home ec class or how to play parachute in gym class but never once were taught about our bodies or how to nourish them appropriately?
We shoved chicken nuggets and french fries down our throats at lunch time of if you were feeling healthy you would get the garden salad dripping with PUFA oil. Maybe even a dessert from the vending machine.
We had an hour of sex education that simply was a video showing us how to use some scented toxic tampon or pad.
We were taught nothing about our bodies.
The very vessels we need in order to do life and live deeply and fully. The very things that create life if given the right environment to do so.
Sadly, we were never given the right environment or health education to thrive.
Don’t rely on anyone for your health - the government, the doctors, that pill.
Nobody is going to save you but yourself. Knowledge is power.
Learn everything, never stop learning and be curious.
Only you can heal yourself.
