I wish more women knew… that the way we care for our bodies directly impacts how we care for Mother Earth When we war with our Bodies. We war with the Earth. When we try to cover, shut down, or ignore the messages from our Bodies. We ignore the wisdom of the Earth. Coming into right relationship with our Body drastically shifts our relationship with Mother Earth. We finally see ourselves as the mirror. And Earth as our mirror. We decide to care for this vessel we’re walking within this...

Are as ~~mildly~~ obsessed with chocolate as I am, Reader?? I’ve always loved chocolate, she’s gotten me through many sad days and celebrated alongside some amazing milestones, too.
