About the 🎥: Sixty years after the pill revolutionized women's emancipation, "The Business of Birth Control" examines the complex relationship between hormonal birth control and women’s health and liberation. The documentary traces the feminist movement to investigate and expose the pill's risks alongside the racist legacy of hormonal contraception and its ongoing weaponization against communities of color. Weaving together the stories of bereaved parents, body literacy activists and femtech innovators, the film reveals a new generation seeking holistic and ecological alternatives to the pill while redefining the meaning of reproductive justice.

Love the description of our bones and how personal they are to how we move and exist:

I just spent the day teaching and capturing images of beautiful bones. Each of your bones is as unique an expression of you as your face. You literally manipulate your world with hands-full of bones, and walk upon it with bones undulating through your feet. Skeletons are dried bones, but yours are wet, embedded in muscle, gently flexible and deeply resonant. Though sturdy and stabilizing, bones are also ever changing, living tissues responsive to the movements of your life. They speak to the whole of you. Gotta love dem' bones! I will be sharing and discussing these images and many more during my upcoming "Live with Gil" session at 4pm (East Coast time) May 14, Explorer subscribers can sign up for that when you log in to your subscription, where it also will be archived and available for members. If you haven't subscribed, and still want to come to the talk, sign up at www.gilhedley.com for a month, just $15, and join us soon!

Representation Matters and Making Yoga Inclusive with Donna Noble

Yoga is for everybody, but the dominant image is of a young, skinny, flexible girl. Donna Noble talks about creating a space of safety and inclusivity so that people can connect with their bodies and minds.

The more restful and slow postures and practices are just as valid as the acrobatic, complex movements that are most commonly shared and seen

Staying Seen in Midlife with Skylar Liberty Rose

A conversation with Skylar Liberty Rose about taking up space as older women and being visible.

Learning to turn inwards to choose what we need and feel, rather than relying on the outer illusion of social media and other images that are presented to us.

Perimenopause, body changes and how ageing doesn’t have to be associated with loss and shame.
