Stop scrolling — your pelvic floor needs this.

This isn’t about squeezing harder or doing random exercises you saw online.
It’s about breathing the right way to reconnect with your pelvic floor.

This simple pelvic floor breathing exercise helps:
* Reduce tension and holding
* Improve core–pelvic floor coordination
* Support bladder, bowel, and postnatal recovery
* Build strength gently, without strain

When your breath moves correctly, your pelvic floor responds naturally.
No force. No guessing. Just intentional, guided movement.

If you’ve been feeling disconnected, tight, weak, or unsure where to even begin — this is your reset.

Try this exercise.
Listen to your body.
And move with awareness, not pressure.

📩 Want guidance that’s specific to your body?

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐠𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤.

𝐏𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐢𝐜 𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐨𝐧𝐞-𝐬𝐢𝐳𝐞-𝐟𝐢𝐭𝐬-𝐚𝐥𝐥—and it shouldn’t be treated that way.

With guided, intentional movement, Richa Rehan helps you reconnect with a part of your body that supports everything you do—how you move, stand, breathe, and feel.

This is about awareness before intensity.
Precision before repetition.
And strength that’s built with your body, not against it.

When your pelvic floor is supported correctly, confidence follows—quietly, steadily, powerfully.

✨ Move with purpose.
✨ Strengthen with guidance.
✨ Listen to what your body actually needs.

Because real strength starts from within.
Are you ready to power up?

Your body can feel a lot like Stranger Things sometimes.
What looks normal on the surface can hide an entire Upside Down underneath.
Pelvic health issues rarely announce themselves loudly.

They start quietly — a little leakage, pelvic heaviness, painful periods, discomfort during intimacy, or back pain you keep brushing off.

Common? Yes. Normal? No.
Just like the Demogorgon didn’t appear overnight, pelvic problems don’t either. They build slowly when early signs are ignored. And waiting for a “medical emergency” is like waiting for the portal to open — by then, the fix is harder.

Preventive pelvic check-ups are your early warning system.
They help identify muscle weakness, prolapse risks, hormonal changes, postpartum recovery issues, and menopausal transitions before they disrupt your everyday life.

Because prevention isn’t fear — it’s power.
Power to move comfortably.
Power to trust your bladder and bowel.
Power to feel confident in your body.
Power to age actively and independently.

Don’t wait for your pelvic health to enter the Upside Down.
Early checks = easier fixes.
✨ Show your pelvis some care today.

The internet can make almost anything look glamorous, shocking, or “natural”—and that’s exactly how trends like the period blood facial go viral. But here’s the truth most people don’t say out loud: just because something comes from your body doesn’t mean it belongs on your skin.

Menstrual blood is not sterile. It contains bacteria, tissue, and cellular debris that are meant to exit your body—not be reapplied to your face. Using it as a skincare mask isn’t “holistic,” “ancestral,” or “powerful”… it’s simply unsafe and can cause irritation, infections, and breakouts.

In a world obsessed with quick fixes and shock-value beauty routines, it’s important to pause and ask:
Is this trend backed by science—or just by views?

Your skin deserves care that’s safe, clean, and supported by actual dermatology and physiology—not random experiments packaged as empowerment. Real wellness comes from understanding your body, not misusing it.

Let’s choose education over exaggeration, and facts over fads.

Freezing your eggs isn’t “overreacting” — it’s proactive, informed future-planning.
It’s choosing your own timeline, your own autonomy, and your own biological flexibility — instead of racing against a clock set by society.

Here’s the truth:
🧬 Egg freezing preserves your younger, healthier eggs for the future
⏳ It gives you time — to grow, build, heal, explore
🙅‍♀️ It’s NOT desperation — it’s empowerment
❤️ And it’s absolutely okay if motherhood isn’t immediate or linear

If you’re thinking of egg freezing, or even just curious about fertility options — you’re not alone, and you’re not “late.” You’re in control.

Let’s talk openly, without whispers or shame — because women deserve clarity, not silence. 💗

𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧’𝐭 “𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠.” They’re finally being heard.
For generations, women have been taught to whisper their pain—whether it’s about periods, pelvic pain, sexual health, pregnancy loss, postpartum changes, or intimacy struggles.

But silence has never protected us—awareness does. 💗
If you’ve ever felt dismissed, minimized, ignored, or told “it’s normal, just deal with it”—you are not alone. Your voice matters. Your body deserves respect. Your experiences deserve validation.

Let’s break the cycle of shame.
Let’s normalize the conversations our mothers never had the chance to speak.

Let’s build a world where women aren’t brave for sharing—just human.

✨ Share this if you believe women’s health should never be taboo.

PCOS isn’t “just a hormone issue.”
It’s fatigue, cravings, mood shifts, stubborn weight, irregular cycles — and a body that feels like it’s working against you.

But movement can be medicine when it’s the right kind of movement.
Not punishment.
Not “burn more / eat less.”
But gentle, hormone-supportive exercises that:
• reduce inflammation
• support insulin balance
• improve ovulation
• calm cortisol & stress response
• reconnect you with your body

If you’re struggling with PCOS, you are NOT alone — and your body is not broken.
It’s asking for care, not criticism. 💛

Save this, share this, and tag someone who needs this reminder today.

A new era in women’s health doesn’t begin in silence — it begins when we speak.
Standing on the Climax Conference stage today wasn’t just about sharing knowledge…
It was about reclaiming space, challenging stigma, and reminding every woman that her body deserves clarity, not whispers.

For generations, women were told to “adjust,” “ignore,” or “hide” their pain.
But this era is different.
We’re done being quiet. We’re done normalizing discomfort. We’re done waiting for permission to understand our bodies.

Today, we spoke openly about pelvic health, intimacy, postpartum recovery, and the everyday struggles women carry behind closed doors — because real change begins when conversations become louder than taboos.

Here’s to a future where women’s health is not an afterthought…
but a priority, a right, and a movement.

Let’s keep building this era — together.

Honoured to be speaking at the Climax Conference in Ottawa tomorrow 💛

As a pelvic health physiotherapist and women’s health educator, my work has always been about helping women understand their bodies without fear, shame, or confusion.
Because when we learn about our bodies, we start owning them — with confidence.

This panel on V***a & Vaginal Health is more than a discussion.
It’s a step toward normalizing conversations that should have always been normal.

Let’s learn.
Let’s talk openly.
Let’s break the silence together. 🌿

See you tomorrow, Ottawa 🤍
