#03 Knowing Your Body Better and Why It Matters; Sex, Instincts and More

Why does it really help us, as women, to know our body better? Find out in this episode. From knowing/learning the names of your genitalia — because let’s face it men know theirs pretty well, right? — to listening to the body’s instincts and intuition. So many women come away from birth deeply affected by what their body now feels and looks like. I gently invite you to get to know your body better, to tune inwards and be an advocate for yourself.I speak about:knowing the parts of our genitalia and why many of us don’t knowmy healing experience at a ‘Paint Your Vulva’ workshopAnna Lou Walker’s book ‘The Little Book of Vaginas’the clitoris and how it is not one single pointpracticing love and reverence for the body, especially post-birthhow the body speaks up with instincts and intuitionthe benefits of yoga for tuning in to the body's wisdom and our truththat we all deserve to be continent and confidentself-pleasure and knowing what feels goodsupport for pelvic floor issues and upsetthe different signs of our health and not self-silencingfeeling comfortable ‘down there’ is just as important as anywhere elseThemes: Women’s Health, Sex, Intuition, Self-Advocacy, Self-Care, BirthI mention Lucy Rowett, Sex and Relationship CoachAt the end, I share a poem by Danielle DobyConnect with me on InstagramSign up for my weekly newsletter at www.thebirthrecoverycoach.com
