This solo episode begins with a grounding moment from Melissa for a soft return to the breath and a gentle reminder to come back to presence. The heart of this conversation is a powerful lesson: when we try to control other people’s reactions, we’re really being called to regulate ourselves first, to create calm and safety within, before expecting it from the outside. Melissa reminds us life will always bring its waves—the highs and the lows—but what truly matters is how we move through it all. We explore what it looks like to bring more peacefulness into the everyday, starting with how we show up for ourselves in the morning. If you find yourself feeling reactive or easily annoyed, this is your invitation to tune in. There’s so much power in the pause, because it’s in those quiet moments that true certainty begins to reveal itself.You can find The Period Program now on melissawoodhealth.com! Follow us on Instagram at @melissawoodtepperberg and @melissawoodhealthLimited Time Offer: Use code movewithheart when you sign up for a monthly membership to get your first month FREE on melissawoodhealth.com.
