I was first diagnosed with Pcos when I was 16. The solution offered was oral contraception. I was on glucophage and androcure in my twenties and my weight was a challenge for all of it. It was a dark period where I felt hopeless and that my health depended on everyone else. Then I had the penny drop. I wanted to get healthy and take my life back. I embarked on a journey to heal my hormones and get my menstrual cycle back. I combated hormonal acne and weight gain with balance and love. I am now medication free and healthy. This coming Saturday I will be sharing my journey at a special event. All About Eve. Join myself, @lalunalafemme and @hormonal.harmony @rootscapetown for a morning where we will be discussing menstrual health, hormonal balance, cycle syncing and journaling with the cycles of the moon to create a life of abundance. Lunch will be served from WHOLE -bowl food for balance and local artisans will display arts and crafts. Have you ever been in a dark place, missing your period or feel like your body is betraying you? This one is for you! Get your tickets to come and learn how to live in harmony with your beautiful body.

We have the opportunity to shift our behaviour an infinite amount of times. What it requires is for us to have the willingness to look inward. To look at all our past childhood traumas and heal them through self work and love. The hardest part is to admit we aren’t perfect. Making yourself vulnerable and sharing true connection offers you a ‘me too’ moment with another. In that moment you will realize you aren’t alone. We are all finding our way through this crazy beautiful thing called life. The question is, do you think your life is as good as it gets and if not, do you have the courage to design the life you want? •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #selflove #healing #thetrufflejournal #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #yogainspiration #selfcare #selflovejourney

We’ve just moved into our new place and to be honest it was a major finish line I’ve been running toward since Bali. It feels good to start settling into a place that is going to be home for a while to come. Something that is our base camp. I can’t wait to nest and turn our home into a sanctuary filled with way too many plants, happy memories and many many dinner parties. The next few months have some exciting things coming up and right now I am counting my blessings because there are so many. It’s been a magical time for me to see the power of manifesting and knowing that sometimes you need to go through a little mud to end up growing but no matter what, keep running like the wolf you are 🌿🐺 here’s to new beginnings and thanking the universe ✨•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #thetrufflejournal #balilife #bestinbali #explorebali #manifest #beautifuldestinations #sheisnotlost #wearetravelgirls #dametraveler #girlsborntotravel
