Congratulations You're Burnt Out! (Now What?)

In this episode Abi treats us to the ambience (ie. Illinois sounds) of mid-summer, and as a check in to learn more deeply about the issue of Burnout. But then specifically to also outline what healing and moving forward during deeply exploitative and trying times can look like. You'll want to have your notebook handy for this episode, with explanations for the patterns we find ourselves in, to how to build community that can sustain us- she holds back nothing from her years of working at the intersection of personal and communal wellness. So you if you're burnt out- congratulations! Here's your loving answer to "Now what?"

Marketing Healing is Problematic (We Need to Talk About Trauma)

In this episode Abi gets all the way up on the soapbox: how "Healing" is marketed is hella problematic, especially around the topics of trauma release, mindfulness, recovery, and embodiment. As a trauma informed yoga instructor and embodiment coach Abi walks through the red flags of much of the online advertising for "trauma informed" workshops, retreats, and online guides and clarifies what trauma healing typically, actually, looks like.

Self Love Again (The Glue of Integrated Healing)

In this episode Abi talks about Self-Love. Again. Discussed as the glue that holds all healing modalities in place, self-love yet again makes a topic appearance on the pod. A deep, ongoing source of compassion and curiosity, self-love serves as a foundation for self-care, healing, and inspiration. This episode ends with one of Abi's affirmations, from her poetry book, "Interwoven into Everything"- which can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/Interwoven-into-Everything-affirmations-scenes/dp/B0BXNF2MQK/ All music by Jazz Honegger.

Niyamas (Yoga Guidelines for Wellness Part 2)

In this episode Abi covers the second "branch" of a yoga practice, the Niyamas. These virtuous guidelines promote a "right use of energy", along with their prior "branch" partner- the Yamas. (Listen to Part 1 for more about them!). Like in Part 1, Abi offers embodied examples of how these observances have shaped her life. If you're interested in learning more, Abi highly recommends the book, "The Yamas and Niyamas" by Deborah Adele. To support the pod: www.patreon.com/abigailjewell All music by Jazz Honegger.

Grumpy Growth Edges (When Self Love Calls Us Out, On Ourselves)

In this episode Abi discusses her past year and how in listening to her body her diet began to change for the better- all as a person who hates diet culture. In untangling her more stubborn values from her actual bodily needs she covers how change takes time, guidance, and how her intuition is never wrong. CW: Diets; Autoimmune/chronic inflammation
