Another incredibly helpful episode! I can sense the care + thoughtfulness you put into each episode, Nicole 🀍

I loved what you said about breath work (and I’m guilty of forgetting this practice because it’s so simple!) and it reminded me how useful it was this summer as breath work got me through each contraction while I brought my second baby into this world. Learning three breathing patterns/exercises helped me immensely this time around. So thank you for the reminder of to keep this in practice.

And I also love that rewatching shows is tending to my nervous system. Persuasion (the latest Netflix version) and Guernsey Literary + Potato Peel Pie Society are my fave films to rewatch.

Glad this was a supportive episode, Courtnie! A lot of people have a similar reaction to breath workβ€”it sounds so basic, how could it possibly be helpful? But I love the ease of it, especially once you figure out the patterns your body likes best. I think that version of Persuasion had some pretty critical feedback when it came out, but I enjoyed it too!
