Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) can be a scary diagnosis, and often leads women to think that they need to put their heavy lifting and high impact exercise aside because of discomfort or scared they're going to make it worse. Understandably so, since it's been identified as a potential risk factor especially when prolapse was diagnosed alongside

If you got here by Google-ing something along the lines of "breath to reduce stress," "how to breathe when I'm stressed?" or "meditation to ease my anxiety," then I'm so glad you made it here!

I’m sitting in Coffee Culture with a Medium Salted Caramel Latte on my right; my periwinkle blue water bottle to my left and staring at my blinking cursor trying to decide how I want to write this blog.

Wether I'm working with women just starting their fitness journey, or who've been working out for a while - but running into some *cough cough* pelvic floor concerns, there's one thing I need you to know - you're stronger than you think. Many women come to me with the same concern when it comes to weight training, "I don't want too get bulky" or

I'm assuming that since you stumbled upon this article, you already know what is a Diastasis Recti (DR). But just in case a trip down a rabbit hole led you here, a Diastasis Recti is typically defined as a 2 cm gap between your 6 pack muscles (Rectus Abdominus). The gap is caused by a stretching of the soft tissue, called the linea alba which
