The Lunar Body - Your Birth Control Options
play

12/07/22 • 36 min

This episode is all about the most highly-requested topic from my listeners—all about your birth control options. We are lucky to have numerous avenues for contraception these days. However, they're not all perfect, and not every option is suitable for every body. You'll learn about long-term, short-term, hormonal and non-hormonal methods of birth control, as well as barrier methods, fertility awareness, and emergency contraception as well. I share the percentage of efficacy with perfect use and typical use along with the pros and cons of each method to help you decide the best option for your needs.

Many people share with me that they feel like they're learning about their bodies and their intuition "too late" in life, and that they want to avoid the same happening with their children. In this episode, I share how to nurture and support your child in having a healthy relationship with food, with their body image and bodily functions, their menstrual cycle (or sibling's cycle), and spiritual practice. It all starts with you—they pay attention more than you know! The fun part is, you can learn a lot together and make it a special experience as they grow.

The Lunar Body - Cyclical Activism with Janine Mulone
play

11/16/22 • 30 min

Cyclical activism is a practice of being politically involved in a way that is ongoing and sustainable. In the same way that we use cycles to create supportive personal self-care practices, we can use cycles to ensure we are taking action towards collective change in a way we can keep up long-term. I am joined by Janine Mulone of Feel Good Retail for this episode, which is a re-airing of our 2020 podcast It's Just a Phase.

If you have ever felt overwhelmed or unsure of how to get involved, this episode is a great place to start!

The Lunar Body - Meal Planning for a Healthy Menstrual Cycle
play

11/09/22 • 26 min

As a cycle-syncing nutritionist, I’m asked all the time about what you should eat to have a happier period. While no one food is going to cure all of your menstrual woes, supporting the processes that are happening in your body throughout your cycle can certainly help. In this episode, you'll learn the basics of regulating your period through diet and lifestyle, different levels of meal planning to fit into a realistic schedule, what's happening in each phase of your cycle and how to support it all through food.

Intuitive eating is a gentle approach to health and life that prioritizes feeling good in your body. It helps you cultivate a much more relaxed relationship with food, but the process isn't always easy. It takes time and patience, and a lot of work to unlearn and reframe diet culture messaging we've learned over the years.
Weight-inclusive health coach Tomesha Campbell joins me to talk about how you can work through some common roadblocks that people typically come across when trying to adopt an intuitive eating lifestyle.
Tomesha Campbell is an experienced health coach, speaker, and blogger. She is driven by the desire to support women to break up with the scale and develop a positive body image through a weight-inclusive approach to health. Tomesha's journey with weight and body image has been a long one, but it's taught her that health is about so much more than weight. Tomesha has been featured on Autoimmune Wellness, the SPI Blog, and Boston While Black. She currently resides in Watertown, MA with her dog, Penny Deena.

The Lunar Body - Kitchen Witch Basics

Kitchen Witch Basics

The Lunar Body

play

04/13/22 • 27 min

If you’re wondering whether or not you can be a kitchen witch, there’s no initiation, there’s no gatekeeper, no certification or exam. You are one if you decide to be one!
I talk a lot about eating intentionally — thinking about how you want to feel and choosing foods that align with that goal. It’s about being present and empowered with your food choices.

But there is another type of way that we can eat intentionally, and that’s with kitchen witchery. This is choosing food for its magical or energetic properties. Making magic out of your meals, and incorporating food into your rituals.

We’ll talk about:

  • how to read a recipe
  • essential kitchen items
  • different ways you can infuse your energy and intentions into your meals
  • my favorite books for going further
  • rituals to try to get started

The Lunar Body - How Capitalism Impacts Your Period
play

01/25/23 • 21 min

Capitalism requires us to work like machines, producing the same level of output day after day. Humans just can't work like that, especially those of us with menstrual cycles whose energy, focus, creativity, and more shift from one phase to the next. This week's episode explores how this patriarchal structure of working and living can have an impact on your period and your cycle health.
