Lorena

Women’s health, the nervous system, and the quiet science of feeling at home in your body.

Lorena joins the Health lane this edition, writing from Madrid by way of Bogotá. A health & wellness consultant by training, she covers the parts of women’s health that rarely make the front page — hormones, stress, the long conversation between mind and body.

Her writing is warm, unhurried and a little bit poetic — and allergic to shame. Wellness, the way she tells it, should feel less like a punishment and more like a homecoming. She writes in two languages and thinks in both at once.

What Lorena covers

Mental health, out loud.

The overlap of mood, hormones and habit — and how to talk about it without flinching. Warm, plainspoken, shame-free.

Mind–body & the nervous system.

Stress as a physiology, not a mood. How rest, breath and a regulated nervous system quietly do most of the work.

Women’s health & hormones.

Cycles, perimenopause, thyroid, the things women are told to push through. Written plainly, without the supplement pitch.
