Maybe you’ve spent years treating your body like a project without even realizing it.
Improving it.
Controlling it.
Disciplining it.
Trying to keep it looking, moving, and performing a certain way.
And then perimenopause arrives and suddenly the old rules don’t seem to work anymore.
You push through the fatigue.
You exercise the way you always have.
You try to eat “better.”
You tell yourself to be more disciplined.
You look in the mirror and wonder what happened to the body you knew.
I’ve spent so much of my life treating my body like a project:
Make it stronger.
Leaner.
More flexible.
More youthful.
More disciplined.
But this season has me asking a different question:
What if my body isn’t asking to be improved?
What if it’s asking to be understood?
What gives me energy?
What depletes me?
What does my body need before it has to scream?
What happens when I stop overriding myself?
Because my body isn’t separate from the rest of me.
My breath.
My energy.
My emotions.
My intuition.
My relationships.
My wisdom.
There is a whole woman here to know.
And maybe this season isn’t about taking on another project.
✨ Maybe it’s about finally listening to the woman living inside the body I’ve been so busy trying to improve. ✨
Who can relate?
