Ep 32. Moontime Nutrition Part 2: Nourishing Your Pre-Ovulatory Phase
The Pre-Ovulatory Phase or "Inner Spring" starts from the cessation of menstrual bleeding to a few days before ovulation. In a typical 28-day cycle, this approximately corresponds to day 6 until day 11. This phase has traditionally been seen as a time of dynamism, of rising energy levels and growing confidence. Here are my top tips for deeply nourishing yourself during this phase, nutritionally and otherwise.
This is second in a series of FIVE on nourishing yourself throughout your entire hormonal cycle.

Ep 29. Overcoming Elitism and Racism in Yoga with Dianne Bondy
The 8 limbs of yoga fundamentally support anti-racism, diversity, and body acceptance - and yet yoga in the west has been largely inaccessible to anyone who isn’t white, wealthy, thin, and able-bodied. In this episode I speak with the incredible Dianne Bondy, and she delivers truth-bombs with her characteristic vivacious spirit!
We talk about the commodification and cultural misappropriation of yoga, performative activism, anti-racism in yoga, and ways we can decolonise yoga in the west and finally make it accessible for people who have historically been denied access to these life-affirming practices.
