GIVE YOURSELF MORE TIME

Here's what I think most women get wrong in their healing journey: they don't give themselves enough time.

When you're living cyclically, you genuinely feel like a different person from week to week. And that different version of you? She might wake up with a brand new idea, a new mood, a new recommendation from a post or a book or a podcast — and suddenly you're pivoting again. All that constant shifting just dilutes your effort.

Here's what I'd suggest instead: commit to one full cycle.

Whatever philosophy you're exploring, whatever modality you're trying — give it a full menstrual cycle or lunar cycle - 30ish days. One complete round through all the versions of yourself. That's long enough to actually gauge what you're able to receive and benefit from within that container.

Your body needs to ground first.

Before you can integrate insight, your nervous system needs to stabilize. Think about it this way: a breathwork session might bring you a genuine breakthrough — real clarity, real revelation. But if your system isn't grounded enough to act on it, the insight just floats away. It never moves from knowing into doing. And the doing is the whole point.

This is an earth-based philosophy. Your body is of the earth, of nature — and it's the vessel holding all of it. The consciousness, the wisdom, the self-awareness, the ability to read energy and the world around you. All of that needs somewhere to land. A system that can actually receive it.

WE’RE GETTING CARRIED AWAY WITH THE ASTROLOGY

There's a lot of talk in the wellness space about jumping timelines, speeding things up, doing the right manifestation technique and arriving somewhere new. And sure — life can change in a split second. Miracles happen. But the daily practice is about grounding into your body so you have the capacity to receive what's coming. You're not healing yourself to arrive at neutral. You're healing yourself to experience the fullness of life — the beauty, the highs, the lows, the challenge, the growth. True connection. Joie de vivre. Being genuinely in love with your life.

All of the mindset work, the spiritual work, the energetic work — it has to land in the body. And your body runs on roughly a monthly cycle.

So give yourself a month. It's almost common sense, and yet it's genuinely hard when everything around you is moving fast. ADHD is the norm in our generation and being a multitasking women will keep you starting over again and again unless you give yourself some guard rails.

Commit. See it through.

The women I work with — the pattern I see most often is this: they forget what they were actually focused on. A goal gets fuzzy. A block gets abandoned halfway. A mantra or practice that was helping them gets dropped, and suddenly they're in despair thinking they don't have the tools. They do. They just didn't hold on long enough.

Find your North Star. A guiding practice, a guiding container, a ritual that holds you — and then observe how it works for you across a full cycle before you change course.

And then yes, change it seasonally. Because you will need to. You are not the same person in summer as you are in winter. Your practices need to reflect that. But season-by-season evolution is very different from week-by-week abandonment.

Commit to the cycle. Let it show you something.
