Today is Miscarriage Awareness Day, which falls halfway through National Pregnancy and Infancy Loss month taking place all of October. While still highly stigmatized and surrounded by secrecy, #miscarriage and #infantloss rates remain high and we all can work to help remove the shame around it. No one is alone in this struggle. Check out @ihadamiscarriage, started by one woman who was brave enough to share her story, inspiring others and changing norms along the way. // regram @ello.vanessa
"The magnitude of sexual harassment, rape, assault is very real. If you write this in your status, perhaps more people will understand how much it effects us, how almost everyone has endured it.” Thanks to actress Alyssa Milano for starting the #metoo movement. Take to social media to #jointhemovement - share your experiences or simple say "me too" so that people can understand how widespread this issue really is. #riseup #monday #mondaymotivation // regram @mayralouise

It's a very important day today: World Mental Health Day. Take a quick moment to ask yourself what's up with your mental health, and of those around you too. What more can you be doing for your self-care? Remember that it's the small things that make the biggest difference! Meditation, yoga, keeping a gratitude journal, volunteering, reading, painting, swimming - what is it that makes your body and mind thank you for taking care of it? It's a good day to think about these things peeps! #mentalhealth #worldmentalhealthday #soimportant // photo by @neyu_ma
That unsettling feeling when you get to work and remember that your employer can #Trump your healthcare needs...Now more than ever, we need to learn about our bodies so we can have agency over them, know our options, support each other and change policy. Good thing CYCLES + SEX is coming to LA Nov. 4! Tickets go on sale TOMORROW! @cyclesandsex // regram @projectconsent art by @drawnbymary #knowyourbody #cyclesandsex #healthcare #womenshealth #thefutureisfemale
