👀 👀 👁 👀 👀 👁 👀 👀 The phrase “ The eyes are the windows to the soul” holds truth. #eyehealth take care of your eyes. Our eyes hold 6 muscles 💪 And we don’t thank them enough!! Seeing far away, reading, driving and so on our eye gates play a large role in our wellness. If we are not seeing clearly spiritually and physically it can cause so many delusions and uncertainty. Let’s start by paying more attention to our eyes like when they are dry or when we are rubbing them too much. A trip to the eye doctor will be a momentary sacrifice but in the long haul you’ll be thankful! #eyefloaters #PVD #healthylifestyle #posteriorvitreousdetachment #eyegate #wellnessjourney #blackhealthmatters https://www.instagram.com/p/CXUckvmpmqm/?utm_medium=tumblr

Experiment - Automatic Random_Reblog - Ask me !

Hi 👋🏽 I’m Le’Nise, a nutritionist, women’s health & wellbeing coach and trainee yoga teacher (I fully qualify in November🎉). # On my feed, I talk a lot about the power of food to help and to heal, about changing the narrative around the menstrual cycle, periods and hormones and of course, about how incredible our bodies are. So many of us believe pain, lethargy and major discomfort are a normal part of having periods and being a woman and I want to assure that they’re not! # Pain is a sign that something is wrong and not something we’re supposed to just put up with and endure. # With my nutrition and wellbeing clients, we spend a lot of reframing what is normal for them and using food, lifestyle, stress management, movement and self-care changes to increase energy, help them feel more in control of their hormones and menstrual cycle and help them feel more like themselves. # Yoga is a powerful way to help balance hormones so look out for a few videos soon with simple techniques to help restore balance and reduce stress ✨ . . . . . . #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #yogi #yogainspiration #yogaofcolor #blackgirlyoga #colorsofyoga #blackyogis #blackyoga #eatlovemove #keepitsimple #nutritionaltherapist #nutritionist #sistersofyoga #hormones #hormonehealth #hormonebalance #blackhealthmatters #menstrualhealth #blackwomenshealth #healthyblackwomen #blackwellness #naturalhair #naturalcurls #naturalista (at London, United Kingdom)

I am back for the 2nd annual 31 Day Raw Vegan Challenge. This goes more in-depth than the 5 Day Raw Vegan Challenges. May 2021 marks my 6 years of eating raw vegan. I was plant based for almost 3 years at that time and decided to do raw vegan for a month but I felt so good spiritually, physically, emotionally, and mentally that I did not stop and now here I am 6 years later. I wanted to use this time to celebrate myself and my growth. This was not just a change in my eating. It has been a change in my life spiritually. Join me on this 31 day challenge of eating raw and have fun! There are no rules. Just have fun, get creative, and set your own pace.

Mental Health Stigma in the BIPOC Communities

??Did You Know??

The Community of Color is disproportionately impacted by disparities surrounding our mental and physical health.

The Community of Color is also plagued by Mental Health Stigma that stems from multiple factors including, Culture and Beliefs, Historical and Racial Trauma, Lack of Culturally Competent Care, Intersectional Discrimination, and Stereotypes.

Systemic Racism is a major factor in why communities of color continue to be underserved, marginalized, and ignored.

The standard healthcare system is not designed nor properly equipped to address the disparities that severely impact communities of color. While some strides are being made to help address these disparities, one of the biggest problems is that we do not have enough representation in the fields and positions to properly address these issues.

Studies have shown that in demographics where there were more providers of color, the quality of health of the community members improved, there were fewer reports of ER visits by these members, and an increase of members seeking routine care.

I came into the healthcare space, not only wanting to make a positive change but also to bring awareness to why we need more representation and community education.

The Black community has the highest rate of disproportionately being misdiagnosed with chronic or severe mental health disorders and conditions, such as Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, BPD, etc. Even though, they may be suffering from severe depression, stress, and anxiety. This is also true for the woman population as well.

Without acknowledging the environmental, socioeconomic, and social well-being factors of an individual, you are not fully addressing what could be contributing to a decline in mental and physical health.

It’s True ! ➖ 👉🏾 Our body can naturally detox and get rid of toxins on its own through these organs 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾 💗 Lungs - filter out carbon dioxide, molds, allergens, and toxins in the air. The lungs can naturally detox by inhaling and exhaling deeply, breathing in salt air by the beach, eating foods with spicy flavors 💗 Skin - absorbs waste then releases it through sweat. Exercising is one of the best ways to sweat and release toxins. You can try dry brushing, epsom salt baths, as well as sitting in a sauna 💩Intestines (colon) - absorb the nutrients from what we eat and pushes them through our blood stream and eliminates the toxins leftover as solid waste so it doesn’t recirculate into our blood 💗Kidney - filters our blood, and eli by products of waste and produce urine to flush the excess from our body 💗Liver - everything that we eat or put on our skin goes into our blood stream and is processed through the liver ➖ 🌿This happens naturally when we are eating foods that keep out body functioning properly 📣However if you feel any of these symptoms below your body may need some extra help eliminating waste ���If you’re gaining weight 😵If you’re constipated 😵If you’re experiencing skin rashes, acne, or eczema 😵If you’re always feeling tired These symptoms can be addressed by increasing the amount of exercise you do, incorporating more foods that support detoxification and elimination (leafy green vegetables, root vegetables, fermented foods, fresh fruit, nuts and seeds, legumes, water and herbs) get enough quality sleep and breathing deeply ➖ 💞LIKE and SHARE this post with everyone you know 💞TURN ON MY POST NOTIFICATIONS 💞FOLLOW @exploringessence ➖ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #exploringessence #eatwellbewell #blackhealthmatters #blackhealthcoach #plantbased #detox #21daydetox #detoxing #detoxingmybody #healthyself #fastingtips #intuitivehealth #herbalhealing #eatlikeyougiveafuck #naturalhealing #mamaearth #earthwoman #blackvegansofinstagram #veganweightlossjourney #holistichealing #vegangoals #unlearnandrelearn #imjustheretomakeyouthink #healingtrauma #weightlosssupport #decolonizeyourmind #blackhealthlifestyle https://www.instagram.com/p/CQqStHohmdg/?utm_medium=tumblr
