[04:25] What Brittney Learned and Unlearned
She just finished Women’s Anatomy of Arousal by Sheri Winston. Brittany resonated with Sheri’s biography because her sexuality, intimate relationships, and professional work contributed to where she’s currently at. She had to unlearn a lot of shame and guilt from her adulthood until now. She didn’t intend to go into the realm of pelvic health until she learned how women were treated in medicine. [04:25] The Importance of the Biopsychosocial Model
The psychosocial part is the reality that we live in. Learning more about your spirituality helps you become aware of the biopsychosocial parts and emotional layers in people. The pelvis is a powerful and special area in one’s body. [08:53] The Power of the Pelvis
The pelvic bowl has a set of three bones that act as a holder for muscles, ligaments, and nerve endings that supply support and structure; it’s also a house of pleasure. If you're experiencing financial, health, or emotional instability, you may have issues with your root chakra. Tapping into the sacral chakra can make you feel connected with what you’re trying to birth and the magic of creation. If you experience shame or someone crosses your boundaries, it might block the sacral chakra. Brittney: “In the womb space, there’s a beautiful rhythm that we experience as menstruators. The bleed, the build, the bleed, the build — it’s basically just a cleansing and gathering energy that goes back and forth.”
[15:59] Holistic Pelvic Care Experience
Brittney had a healing experience with a practitioner in San Diego. In that experience, she discovered that her left side, which is the feminine side, was very pronounced. However, her masculinity feels absent. The assessment made her realize her lack of “masculinity” in her business. These things may link back to other energetics in your life — and for Brittney, it was her familial relationships and religious upbringing. [20:52] Brittney’s Journey in Growth and Healing
While she’s healed, the wound needs massaging from time to time. In her relationships, she went through tough breakups and gained breakthroughs. Brittney: “...it was more like breaking open your heart to new things, whether it was experiences for yourself or another partner. But those heartbreaks really cracked me open wide to the world of even starting my own business.”
Trying out new things helped her with her growth and confidence. She’s also been doing shadow work and rea
