In the Wild Soul Sacred Body Membership, I host monthly community Q&A calls to go deeper on themes of self love, healing, wholeness, and liberation. To give you an idea of what it’s like to be on those calls, I asked for questions on Instagram and pulled out the top three submissions:
How can I navigate injury, illness, chronic pain, or the changes in my body as I age?
How can I heal from my anxious attachment style?
How can I start feeling my feelings when I’ve avoided doing so for a long time?
As I work through these topics, I Iook back on a range of personal and professional experiences and offer up resources that my clients and students find to be useful. I also share what you can expect from the membership, including access to workshops and meditations that explore each of these questions in a richer, more nuanced way.

Quotes from this Week’s Episode of the Embodied Podcast:
Whether it's injury, illness, body pain, weight gain, weight loss, or various conditions and disorders, I look at all of it as invitations for deeper liberation, embodiment, acceptance, respect, and love for the self.
Acceptance is not approval. You can accept something and have immense compassion for it, and also want to change it.
As you get in your senses you can notice patterns.
Doing practices that don’t require you to mentally process feelings and emotions helps to resensitize you.
Terri Cole has these three questions, which are: Who does this remind me of? When have I felt this way before? And why does this feel familiar? Those three questions get to the root of what's going on.
I didn't deny myself a friggin’ thing because I gained weight. There are a lot of people who withhold and deny themselves things and experiences because they don't feel comfortable or confident in how they look. I refuse to do that.
