Game changer! Even without having kids we need to support our pelvic floor.

There are a lot of exercises you can do at home if going to a pelvic floor therapist isn't in your current budget, including Diaphragmatic breathing and tummy skin rolling.

I do hope one day health insurance covers it and recognizes the importance of this area on women(and even on men!)

In the meantime be sure to look out for my upcoming experience focusing on hormones and ways to support the "change" which includes conversations on pelvic floor health.

Not sure about you, but I love me some sweets... and because living a holistic lifestyle doesn't mean depriving us of joy(aka cookies) here are some quick tips on how to regulate your sugar spikes(which if too many can cause diabetes and other health concerns)

If you want more tips like this or have any questions send me a DM or join my newsletter subscription.

I work with nutritional coaches and wellness practitioners all over the country and would happily connect you to them!

Acupuncture, a key component of traditional Chinese medicine, has been practiced for thousands of years.

It involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to promote healing and well-being.

And yes for newbies, it can be scary!

The benefits though, definitely make it worth it, just to name a few:

pain relief
stress + anxiety reduction
digestive health
improved sleep
fertility

Reach out if you need a recommendation in ATL or S. Florida

Water is good for us whether it's cold, warm, hot, or room temperature. However, to up your game on a holistic lifestyle, try drinking room-temperature water more often.

It's important to stay hydrated, especially during the heat and after any exercise.

What people are saying about Tuesday Recess :

“Dr. Poorvi of Herbs & Kettles shared her story of connection to her homeland and how the farmers back home inspired her to bring quality back to US tea consumption.

Poorvi brings more than quality tea she also shared her culture and heritage teaching us best practices and explaining the health benefits of adding a mindful tea practice to my daily life.

But the restoration didn’t end there! After the tea ceremony we were led by Amanda Burtch in a meditative reset just days before the madness of the holidays. Using deep breathing in dim lights with just the sound of her voice she ushered me into a grateful and rested place.. And just $10?

I met dope people from all over metro and greater Atlanta- I love that Jess has brought Lululemon into our communities to give us these much needed rest spaces.”

Grace

What does it mean to give grace to yourself? To your relationship? To your life?

It’s almost like saying hey I know you are trying your best. I see you. I hear you and I know this isn’t easy. But you are doing it!

Grace is how we get up when we are pushed down. Grace is seeing our flaws but also celebrating our wins.

Grace can be a simple I am sorry for not treating you better( treating myself better) It can be the practice of forgiveness. It can be the time you said no to create a boundary.

How are you giving yourself grace today? What does grace look like to you?

I tend to get upset with myself if I critique my husband instead of keeping my eyes on myself and focusing on what I need to do. His love language is different than mine(gift giving) and I had to catch myself asking him to do something that he is not comfortable with, or it’s not his “natural” way of showing love. So I am giving him grace and myself with accepting the other ways he shows it. And I will give it the way I know how!

Gifted my husband 30 days of yoga for Valentines 💌 and we went to our first class last night together in a while! Thank you

Hello + Happy New Year! 🎆

I wanted to say hi to the new followers to this account. Welcome to Jess Pfeffer Holistic Event Planning!

As a holistic practitioner I pride myself on being available and in service to the community, whether it’s through teaching or hosting wellness experiences, or working 1 on 1 with other entrepreneurs looking for some support in their businesses or personal lives.

Last night I taught my first yoga practice to residents of an apartment complex by Ponce City Market and I really enjoyed it. I am hoping to have more offerings like that all over Atlanta in 2024, where different communities(teachers, employees, residents etc) can get a taste of what yoga is. A time for connection, breath, and a break from the day to day obligations.

I am passionate about helping people find their purpose, passion and help them plan. I love collaborating with other health and wellness experts and look forward to connecting with you more soon.

My podcast Holistically Heal-Thyself is back for Season 4. Check out the link in my bio to listen and find out about upcoming experiences in Atlanta and South Florida.

In service + connection,
Jess Pfeffer

As I deep dive into research and readings on Menopause it has brought up the topic of aging in general.

It’s funny, interesting funny not haha funny, for me to think that I am 41 and that I will soon go through this transition myself.

I sometimes forget my age and feel 16, even with wrinkles and some grays, my youthful like personality and the way I speak confuses even me!

Only recently has it hit me that aging is here, that I am considered a middle aged woman, and what does that even mean?

Perhaps I have lived 1/2 my life already? Does it mean that it’s all down hill from here?

It’s not that I never thought I’d get old, I just never really thought of it at all. Call it ignorance or perhaps being so mindful in my day to day life I wasn’t thinking of “the future”.

And now here I am— checking on the stairs to my new house, will I be able to get up them one day? Wondering if the low bean bag chairs I recently bought were a smart move long term?

Regardless if I am ready for it or not, it’s happening and the best thing I can do like most challenging or new things is practice acceptance and gratitude for what I have. How about you?!

I remember the days when I would just leave the shopping cart in the parking lot— sorry that’s what I saw growing up and didn’t know better. No excuses!

However now I know better and I take that extra minute or two to walk it back to where I got it or leave it in the designated space for them.

This small act of kindness or really just duh the obvious right thing to do is something to note. We often are rushing and need to be done with our activity or to do list that we forget our actions do have impacts on others or the environment.

Where in your life can you take an extra minute to do the right thing? To do the obvious with how you are showing up for your community, your family, your job, or better yet for yourself?!

The space between is where the magic is…

The fire 🔥 in me — I am mostly pitta ( one of the 3 energies or personalities in Ayurveda) and it has a lot to do with my digestion issues. Also why I like to do do do. It’s so hard for me to be still. Somehow I have told myself if I am not busy or being productive there is something wrong with me. That I don’t have value or worth. And I’m slowly unlearning this with the help of an adult chair coach. We are talking to the little 6 year Jessica and the 16 year old Jessica. Lots of work ahead but I am ready. Have you ever spoken to your inner child ?! Next time you do make sure to give them a hug !

Welcome 2024!

Here are my words for the year

Comment below yours-- and I will take a screenshot and have it for the end of the year, where we can reflect together on the year.

Accountability is HUGE when it comes to setting intentions, and goals, or making shifts in our actions.

Having someone to support you, reminds you how amazing you are and that you are doing your best, and that it's okay to give grace when you don't "get" it done.
