The Wellness Blog

with Melissa Pickell

Hello! Welcome to the Wellness Blog with Melissa Pickell. Here, I create opportunities for you to consider what needs to be released and let in, to allow you to manifest your vision for your health, wellness, and peaceful relationship with food and your body. I share heart-centered questions, ideas, journal prompts, support and guidance. 

Joyful Movement

There was a time when I was absolutely driven to “do my exercise” and didn’t even consider whether it brought me joy. Many of those years included relentless movement according to calorie expenditure, heart rate monitoring (for calorie expenditure), and “doing” more than one strenuous activity in a day if the calorie expenditure didn’t meet my requirements.

Food means so many things

Did you ever wish you could be one of those people for whom food is “just fuel”?
I used to wish my relationship with food could be to not care what food tasted like, but only that I had enough nourishment to fuel my activities. There are so many pieces that inform our relationship with food. I grew up in a family of gourmet cooks and people who paid attention to how food was presented. I have a wide and discerning taste palate and care about the way food looks and tastes. Food as fuel-only just isn’t part of my world.

Express Yourself

The throat chakra is all about expression, making choices and decisions, and using our voice. The mouth and throat are the entry point for food and liquids. So it makes sense that any imbalances here could have a profound effect on our relationship with food and how we eat.

It’s Ok to Take Care of YOU First

As a young working mother I used to say that if I could just get to the gym before starting the rest of my day, I would be happy and would be a better mom and partner. Lucky for me I have a partner who was willing to do the morning routine with young children to “allow” me to take this space for myself.
