🌍 Friends, I need your help!🌎 I volunteer run a virtual Climate Change Club for tweens and teens & need some guest speakers to come talk about some of the topics they're interested for the year. If you are or know someone who specializes in the following, please reach out 👇 #climatechange

Resources for dealing with war and disaster-related stress can be found here. #war #stress #ptsd

It's 🔶National Infertility Awareness Week🔶 and one thing I do not see anyone talking about is infection mitigation to reduce the risk of fertility complications. Repeat SARS2 infections affects male and female fertility (lots of studies show this). #niaw2025 #nationalinfertilityawareness #ttc

Your body knows before your brain does. That tension in your chest. The irritability. The insomnia. It’s not “just stress.” It’s data. #highriskpregnancy #birthtrauma #infertility #pregnancyloss #medicaltrauma

👩🏻‍💻 You don't have to keep Googling at 2am. 🤔 You don't have to keep wondering if this is "normal" 😢 You don't have to go through this alone. 👇 #somatichealing #traumarecovery #birthtrauma #medicaltrauma

As a somatic trauma professional, I'll say that sometimes deep healing is not what you need. Especially in a world where most are living in functional freeze, sometimes diving into the "deep healing" world is counterproductive and even harmful. #highriskpregnancy #lossmom #preemiemom #nicumom

A big part of my job when talking about Ruvelle is showing people that stress physiology CAN and DOES affect pregnancy outcomes even if your MD doesn't know about it AND that doesn't mean you caused your pregnancy complications. It's not my opinion, it's backed by science. #highriskpregnancy

Very cool to know that 2 books that will be published soon feature and highlight the work that we do at Ruvelle! A great reminder for people preparing for and going through a high-risk pregnancy & NICU/preemie parenting that we are here, filling gaps left by the medical & mental health industries

And yet why am I the only person on my clients’ care team who is talking to them about infection mitigation efforts like wearing respirators and increasing air filtration & ventilation?? The medical field is failing pregnant people again… #highriskpregnancy #pregnancy #pregnant #covidisnotover

They are taking away the right to protest. They are taking away the right to express political opinions. They are taking away the right to protect your health. These are all fundamental human rights. Do not be silent about losing them.

Non trauma-informed approaches tell you the WHAT: "joy is a priority" or "rest is non-negotiable". Trauma-informed approaches teach you the HOW: rebuilding somatic capacity. When you're inspired by the what, but don't know how, that's when you reach out to Ruvelle. #highriskpregnancy #birthtrauma

People come to Ruvelle when they're sick of having a restricted diet to improve health, they know stress is affecting their reproductive/perinatal health but relaxing is not an option, & they're ready to address the missing piece of their health * health care puzzle. www.ruvelle.com #pregnancy

Wowwww Martin Freeman's Scouse accent in The Responder is SO good. #TheResponder #MartinFreeman #BritBox

I have just discovered Tana French’s books and I think I’m in love. I just adore her writing style. It’s so luscious and inviting. 🥰 Anyone else a Tana French fan? #BookSky #TanaFrench

If you are seeking joy & pleasure right now without also building somatic capacity for the realities of right now, you’re numbing. Many will read that and think I’m saying don’t feel joy & pleasure. Read it again.

Had such a fun time chatting with @lemonslisteninglibrary ! We talked about books but also waaaay more than just books. I can't wait for you to listen! buff.ly/kSSO4C3 Thanks for having me on Randie! #PodcastSky #Podcasters #AuthorSky #BookSky #HighRiskPregnancy

My latest post is now out. I show how Trump's attacks on science and universities are neither random nor new - they fit very precisely into the authoritarian playbook. This means we can guess what might come next and prepare - and we must! christinapagel.substack.com/p/censor-pur...

Please stop teaching people how to "calm" their nervous system when 1) a nervous system is not ever supposed to be calm, it's supposed to be responsive and 2) feeling calm does not mean someone is regulated. /rant

Sometimes I feel like we've been talking and teaching about trauma too much and it's taken away from the core of the work that we do at Ruvelle. "We don't teach trauma healing or stress management for the sake of feeling calmer." 👈 that part It's always been about...👇 #pregnancy #pregnantlife

A NICU nurse planted the seed to write Pregnancy Brain. Indidnt believe her that I could write a book. Years later, Pregnancy Brain poured out of me, Body Language Journal was published & I have a list of TBW book ideas! Life works in mysterious ways… Happy World Book Day! 🥂 #booksky #authorsky

Why do I do celebs wearing books? 1: it tickles me to see covers come to life—mine and others’ books 🥰2: the work I do & what ppl go through re loss, high-risk pregnancy & prematurity is heavy & serious. I take any opp I can to ease the heaviness & remind that resources are available! #booksky

📚Celebs Wearing Book Selena Gomez so perfectly captured the look of Body Language Journal but the Oscar for best Pregnancy Brain outfit goes to…Adam Sandler 😂 Get your copy of the Body Language Journal and Pregnancy Brain at ruvelle.com/shop #authorsky #booksky #highriskpregnancy #birthtrauma

Oscars are today! Another opportunity to have some fun. 🥰🤩 But in all seriousness, I love how much Pregnancy Brain and Body Language Journal have HELPED. Actual measurable changes to health. That’s what I love about being an author! #authorsky #writingcommunity #booksky #writersky #pregnancybook

When you approach stress as a **physiological** response and NOT a mental health or mindset issue, this is the type of health shift that's possible! #gestationaldiabetes #pregnancycomplications #pregnancybrainbook #ruvelleshop #pregnancylife #psychoneuroimmunology #maternalfetalmedicine

Love that Pregnancy Brain is still helping #highriskpregnancy patients get the support they need and deserve! 🥰 Therapists, OBs, MFMs, midwives, doulas, let’s get this resource into more people’s hands. Contact us to carry Pregnancy Brain for your patients/clients! #authorsky #pregnancybook

possible Ice cream dripping down your arm sticking to your skin like the heat of the sun. The gentle warm breeze of late afternoon makes the trees dance for you as your phone rings with the news you've been awaiting for months, for years, for your whole life. #authorsky

Feedback like this means the world 🥰 📘Pregnancybrainbook.Com & 📔 bit.ly/ruvelleblj #authorsky #writingcommunity #booksky #writersky #highriskpregnancy #birthtrauma #medicaltrauma #nicuparent #lossparent

The trouble is, most trauma-informed health support is what patients, client, and professionals NEED but isn't what they want. #entrepreneurship #smallbusiness #stressphysiology #stressandhealth #psychoneuroimmunology

The biggest misconception about #leadership is that how we lead is a choice when in fact how we lead is intricately tied to the state of our nervous system. Yes, even if you feel calm, cool, collected. 👀Because how calm you feel does not tell you how regulated you are.👀 ⤵️ #nervoussystemregulation

Celebs wearing books at the BAFTAs! 🥰 Pregnancy Brain & Body Language Journal both available via link in my bio! #AuthorSky #WritingSky #BookSky #Highriskpregnancy #Preemiemom #LossMom #BirthTrauma

You know how you cannot journal your hunger pangs away? This is exactly why you cannot journal your medical trauma away. Thoughts do not change physiological reactions. This is why our Body Language Journal is just that, about the BODY. Get yours: bit.ly/ruvelleblj #AuthorSky #TraumaHealing

Today is also a good day to remember the political cowardice that enabled the right to undermine COVID mitigation measures.

The Coordinating Committee of Defend Public Health has released the following statement about the confirmation of RFK Jr. as HHS Secretary.

It's the perfect day to work on my manuscript—dark, cold, gloomy, rainy. But public health died today so I think I'd rather just curl up under a blanket with some tea and watch a show instead. Back to writing tomorrow. #authorsky #writingsky #writersky #booksky #publichealth

Between a long day of meetings and work I saw the news about the HHS. This is a terrible thing for public health and the future is going to be complicated. But I'm here to remind you that I'm still here sharing science-backed info about

Friend: Your gift is challenging people to think differently and that's valuable. It’s just a harder sell in a world that leans toward quick fixes and comforting platitudes. Me: Dammit why am I always drawn to things that are hard to sell??

You can be early in your healing journey even if the loss or medical trauma was years ago. #ruvelle #birthtrauma #medicaltrauma #pretermbirth #highriskpregnancy #nicu #pregnancyloss

Healthcare is shifting, but burnout remains. If you work in reproductive, perinatal, postpartum, or pediatric health, you need more than just “stress management.” Regulation isn’t about calming down—it’s about

Trust in healthcare is at an all-time low, yet the need for access to quality care has never been higher. While increasing education and access to health information is critical, information alone isn’t enough—patients struggle to absorb it when they’re stressed and dysregulated, and practitioners
