If you’re a woman, you have the unique capacity to give to others. It’s crucial to know that caring for yourself first is a non-negotiable step. Without it, the things you do for others will eventually drain you. Instead, fill your well. Focus on a few key areas of self-care so that you’ll be able to give out of the overflow. Read on for some ways to get started. 

1. Get Support

Reaching out for support is crucial. There are so many sources of life-giving support. First, consider your social and family circle. Pick out a few supportive people to who you can turn in times of need. Also, consider spiritual support. Being a part of a healthy religious or spiritual community can be a source of joy and refuge no matter what season you’re in.

If you have touchy issues that need an unbiased perspective, connect with a high-quality counselor. Also, don’t forget about your physical health as a woman. Are you in a situation where you need extra assistance? Try doing a search using terms such as unplanned pregnancy Des Plaines, IL to receive comfort and resources. 

2. Maintain Healthy Boundaries

Personal boundaries delineate where your personhood ends and another’s begins. A key part of thriving in relationships is to have boundaries that are not walls, but aren’t too porous, either. In dealing with loved ones, confusion about boundaries is a basis for conflict and pain. If you take the time to intentionally do boundary work on yourself, you’ll be able to have healthier, more fulfilling relationships that are nourishing rather than draining.

3. Serve Others

A great place to practice boundaries is in service to others. When you’ve determined that serving a particular place or person is a positive thing, pick out where you’d like to serve. It might be a community group, nonprofit, or health setting. Also, rethink your everyday life. Family life, vocation, and the interactions you have every day have the potential for service. 

4. Learn Assertiveness

Speech and behavior that is neither passive nor aggressive is the sweet spot of human communication. Get some good feedback from a trusted supporter about your style of communication, and practice assertiveness skills in non-threatening environments. Soon, you’ll build your assertiveness “muscle” and will be able to use it in more challenging situations.

5. Maintain Healthy Habits

Eat healthily, hydrate, get enough sleep, and design a sustainable exercise program. Make the process as pleasurable as possible; you’ll be able to stick to it and change it up as you get older. Remember to stay up-to-date on your healthcare appointments, too. 

6. Prioritize Friendships

Friendships and community connections are tied to happiness and longevity. Even if you’re a homebody, make the effort to identify a few people and connections that are nourishing for you. Staying connected helps you keep problems in perspective, encourages you to lighten up, and provides variety in your life. 

Effective care of oneself requires discernment. Consider these ideas as you create your self-care plan.

Happy International Women's Day to all the women c Happy International Women's Day to all the women crushing it despite getting less pay, less startup funding, less everything when it comes to business. Let's do more than recognize women.
In 2023, it's time to:
*Buy from women-owned businesses
*Give women a seat at the table, preferably the board
*End all male speaking panels
*Invest in women startups, including those focused on serving women
*Include more women in clinical trials
*End toxic work cultures
*Support paid maternity leave policies
*Fill the wage gap between men and women
*Donate to nonprofits serving women
*Let women take time off of work for painful periods without stigma or penalty
*Work harder to specifically include and apply all of these principles to women from marginalized groups such as black women, disabled women, LGBTQ women, and females identifying as nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer.
And so. much. more.

No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children trick or treating on Halloween. Those reports you hear on the news simply aren’t true! ⁣
⁣
However, if you are attending a Halloween party for adults, ask if the candies, goodies, or drinks are special or infused! Edibles are more common at parties as an alternative to alcohol, especially in states where the plant has been legalized for both recreational & medical use.⁣
⁣
If you’re not used to consuming, try a small piece or half a piece, drink plenty of water, and make sure you have a safe place to sit if needed. And always call a rideshare aka Uber or Lyft home!⁣
⁣
Happy Halloween! 🎃💀👻⁣

Happy National Mushr00m Day! 🍄 ⁣ Which is you Happy National Mushr00m Day! 🍄
⁣
Which is your favorite Medicinal Mushr00m?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It's more important than ever to take mushr00m supplements. Here's a little about how my favorite four mushr00ms work:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Lion’s Mane Mushr00ms: great for improving focus and memory. Lion's mane promotes neurogenesis, or birth of new brain cells.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Cordyceps Mushr00ms: great for fighting fatigue and increasing length of your workouts. It's especially helpful for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue patients.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Turkey Tail Mushr00ms: great for supporting your immune system. Clinical trials have looked at its role in fighting cancer.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Reishi Mushr00ms: what can't the queen of mushr00ms do? It fights cancer, boosts the immune system, improves mood, levels blood sugar, and promotes heart health.⁣⁣

9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a da 9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a day to celebrate them?
Well in the United States & many parts of the world, they are still illegal, similar to another misunderstood therapeutic green plant we celebrate on 4/20. 
I've worked hard over the years in Denver & many other states to help decriminalize shr00ms and help people access information on how to use them for medical, spiritual, and stress relief purposes. I suggest following @decriminalizenature & @doubleblindmag for deeper info.
How are you celebrating today? ❤️ 🍄 ❤️

I’m not the only one, right? 😜 👩🏻‍🔬 💚
As a neuroscientist, I put out the first book on the potential causes of endocannabinoid deficiency and how to balance your ECS with or without plant medicine. 
From stress to medications to diet to your genes, there are so many ways your ECS go go haywire. The fact that so many people respond to plant medicine is likely because so many of us have severe imbalances.
