Who we are

Our website address is https://embodiedwellnesscenter.com.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Visitor Data

Form blocks (inquiry forms, contact us, email list submission) 

When you submit information to this website via web form, we collect the data requested in the form in order to track and respond to your submissions. We share this information with WordPress, our online store hosting provider, so that they can provide website services to us.

Blog comments

This website includes commenting functionality on some pages, which enables you to post a comment. This website collects personal data when you post a comment, including:

    • Your name (which will be displayed as part of your posted comment)

    • Your email address (optional, to let you know if someone replies to your comment)

    • Your website URL (optional)

This website includes “likes” functionality on some blog posts which enables you to “like” a post. This website collects personal data when you like a post to try to prevent the same person from liking the same post during the same visit, including:

    • Information about your browser, network, and device

    • Details about the web page or content you shared or proposed to share

    • Your IP address

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Rest is not laziness.
Rest is not falling behind.
Rest is not something you have to “earn” after completely exhausting yourself.
In a culture that constantly pushes productivity, slowing down can feel uncomfortable, guilt-inducing, or even wrong. But your body was never designed to stay in survival mode all the time.
Rest helps regulate your nervous system, improve focus, restore energy, and create the capacity to keep showing up for the things that matter to you. Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is pause.

Anxiety doesn’t always look like panic attacks or obvious worry.
Sometimes it looks like:
-Overthinking every decision
-Putting things off because you’re afraid of doing it wrong
-Needing constant reassurance
-Trying to keep everyone happy
-Feeling like you have to earn your worth through productivity or perfection
These behaviors are often protective responses rooted in anxiety. Understanding the "why" can help us foster self-compassion instead of shame.

Unfortunately it’s usually option D for me! Sometimes the hardest part of having free time is figuring out what to do with it.
