Yes, PMS can be a good thing!
We talk about PMS all the time at Self-Care Cafe, but it's not the PMS you're thinking about. We're usually talking about our holistic view of self-care which includes the Physical, Mind, and Soul areas of our lives and how dieting and pursuit of weight loss takes you away from living your life.
Tune in to find out which areas of your life can be included in self-care (hint: all of them can be!), how they're connected, and how to reclaim your authentic, true self.
Mentioned in this episode:

CW: Mention of eating disorders.

Let's chat about how Intuitive Eating and meal planning can co-exist!

Being stressed about what's for dinner every night is no fun. Join us to find out how meal planning can help you avoid these situations (most of the time) and let's you have the best of both worlds—flexibility in your food choices AND choosing foods that make your body feel good.
