In this episode, we're joined by Sarah Ezrin, an award-winning author, yoga educator, maternal mental health advocate, and mother of two. Sarah shares her insights on protecting your energy as a woman by honoring the natural cycles of your life — through menstruation, motherhood, postpartum, and menopause. We explore the profound challenges of motherhood and the often-overlooked postpartum experience, emphasizing the importance of rebuilding "the village" to support mothers in today's fast-paced, individualistic world. Sarah's perspective on parenting as a practice of connection highlights the power of yoga's core principles in cultivating deeper relationships with ourselves and our children. Whether you're a yogi, a mom, or simply someone seeking to trust your intuition and live more authentically, this conversation offers practical tools and heartfelt wisdom to help you approach life with balance, grace, and intention.   You can find Sarah on Instagram @sarahezrinyoga and through her website!   Resources: • Get started with functional lab testing & health coaching → • Let's connect on instagram → @theholistic.remedy   We chat about: 04:21 — Introducing Sarah Ezrin: author, yoga teacher, mother 05:58 — The female nervous system is built to feel more deeply 08:01 — How to protect your energy throughout your menstrual cycle  11:26 — Grounding practices to regulate your nervous system 17:15 — How to come out of a more depressive "low" state 19:20 — Embracing the natural shifts in a woman's life: from menstruation to menopause 21:23 — Pregnancy and learning how to listen to the body 23:07 — The struggles of the postpartum period 26:08 — Rebuilding the village our ancestors had in postpartum 28:26 — Protections for postpartum recovery  31:45 — The impact of individualistic society on motherhood 34:05 — Yoga culture: the physical poses vs the core philosophy 37:37 — Shifting from a rigid yoga practice to mindful movement 39:01 — The inspiration behind Sarah's book "The Yoga of Parenting" (resource) 41:23 — Using non-attachment in parenting: creating space for your kids 44:16 — Tapping into your intuition and listening to your gut as a parent   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.
