Body Wisdom Challenge

This week, instead of giving yourself another wellness checklist, practice creating one small moment of presence each day.

The next time you find yourself automatically reaching for your phone, pause.

Maybe you’re waiting in the school pickup line, sitting outside, eating lunch, or simply have a few quiet minutes between tasks.

Instead of scrolling, take 30 seconds to two minutes and notice:

❤️ What can I see around me?

❤️ What can I hear?

❤️ What sensations can I feel in my body?

❤️ What do I notice when I allow myself to simply be here?

❤️ Is there something my body needs right now?

Jodi describes these as small mindfulness moments that can be incorporated throughout the day rather than requiring a long meditation practice.

Remember, supporting your health doesn’t always require doing more. Sometimes Body Wisdom is about creating enough quiet to notice what is already there.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

• Skin concerns women with PCOS and PMOS may experience, including inflammation, irritation, dryness, discoloration, and sensitivity
• The connection between skin inflammation and the nervous system
• Where to begin if reducing chemicals and changing personal care products feels overwhelming
• Why starting with the products you use most frequently can make healthy swaps more manageable
• Jodi’s SHAMAN framework for approaching everyday wellness
• Why Jodi thinks about sleep as a “sleep bank”
• Hydration beyond simply drinking more water
• Why antioxidants matter in skincare, food, and overall wellness
• How small mindfulness moments can fit into everyday life
• Why reaching for your phone may not give your nervous system the break you think it does
• Using your five senses to become more present

Key Takeaways

• You don’t have to replace every product in your home at once. Start with the things you use most often and work outward.
• Wellness doesn’t need to become another rigid checklist. Simple anchors around sleep, hydration, antioxidants, mindfulness, avoidance, and nature can help guide everyday choices.
• Mindfulness doesn’t require hours of meditation. Small moments of presence throughout your day can help you practice returning to your senses and your body.
• Sometimes what feels like a “break”—such as automatically scrolling on your phone—may actually leave you feeling less restored than a few minutes of quiet presence.
• Intimate skin deserves the same ingredient awareness and intentional care we give the rest of our bodies.

That idea ultimately grew into Green Goo, which began in 2008 and remains women-founded and family-owned.

📘 Healthy for a Reason: 12 Practical Guidelines to Feel Like Yourself Again

If you're tired of starting over, trying harder, and wondering why nothing seems to work, Healthy for a Reason was written for you.

For years, we've been told the answer is more willpower, more restriction, and more rules. But if you've struggled with cravings, fatigue, emotional eating, poor sleep, or stubborn weight despite doing everything "right," you know it's not that simple.

What if those struggles weren't signs that you've failed?

What if they were your body's way of asking for something different?

In Healthy for a Reason, Lindsie combines nearly two decades of nursing experience with practical health coaching strategies to help you understand what your body has been trying to tell you all along. You'll learn how to calm your nervous system, recognize your body's signals, build sustainable habits, and create lasting health by working with your body instead of constantly fighting against it.

This isn't another diet book or a collection of quick fixes. It's a practical, compassionate guide to helping you reconnect with your body, rebuild trust in yourself, and finally understand why you're healthy for a reason.
