Summary
Good morning! Let's fill your cup back up today. Today is Day 5 of our 7-Day Cortisol Reset , and we are focusing on Nurture . We're moving into the Solar Plexus to melt away the physical tension we carry in our gut when life gets too heavy. In This Episode: The City of Jewels: Understanding the power and the vulnerability of your third chakra. The Gut-Brain Connection: Why cortisol "hits" our stomach first and how to soothe the nerves there. The Golden Bath: A guided somatic practice to nurture your "doing" center back to health.

You've nurtured the world—now, let the world nurture you. You are enough, even when you are doing absolutely nothing.
