      <image:caption>Multiple works from artist Andreana Rosnik, including: “Recipes for a Flare,” a collage communicating the danger and inflammation that comfort foods might cost us internally, which took me back to my own fights with food. “Portrait of the Artist as a Colon,” a zine (a small art booklet) illustrating her challenges living with Ulcerative Colitis. As an artist who also draws colons, I appreciated Andreana’s refreshing take on a digestive system fraught with issues. Her “colon wyrm” and “biblically-accurate intestines” deserve a spotlight as well, and could easily be made into merch and tshirts for other folks with colon issues.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Nancy Hart’s acrylic painting, “COW,” (top right) depicted a pink cow silhouette on a black and white backdrop to represent one of her many inherited allergies. Marnie Blair’s print, “Snakes and Rivers,” (center) echoed ideas of transformation and survival on the surface of a blue disposable medical drape. The layers of meaning and the subtle ties to both the body and environment appealed to us as we were curating the show.</image:caption>

It doesn’t mean you’re “cured.” With IBD, there’s no one-size-fits-all version of wellness/remission, but it means your body is operating at a manageable and comfortable baseline. When you’re in green, lean into it! Move your body (if you can), make plans, enjoy safe foods, and take note of what helps you stay in this zone. Celebrate ‘green days’ without guilt. They are precious!” There are bullet points with “green light signs” below, the text reads “No Signs of Infection or Illness, Up-to-date on Medications, Overall Mental Clarity, Overall Emotional Stability, Doctor Cleared for Basic Activities, Feeling Energized/Rested, Eating Well-Tolerated Foods, Regular Bowel Movements, Healthy Consistency of Stool, Medications Working Effectively, No Incontinence, No Urgent Bowel Movements, Stable Lab Work, Hydrated, No Constipation, and Minimal Pain/Bloating.” Scattered throughout the page are graphics of a stoplight, a full gas symbol, a fully charged battery, and a green thumbs up."</image:caption>

You’re not necessarily flaring, but your body is whispering (or maybe even raising its voice a little). Yellow can be subtle and easy to dismiss, but it’s the most important time to pay attention. In the yellow zone, it’s time to pause and reassess. This may mean: Canceling plans, taking a rest day, eating safe/bland foods, booking a doctor’s appointment, requesting follow-up lab work, reintroducing self-care routines, and more. Yellow isn’t failure. Yellow is wisdom. You’re responding to your body before things worsen. Think of it as preventative maintenance.” There are bullet points with “yellow light signs” below, the text reads “Borderline Lab Results, Mild Changes in Appetite, Changes in Digestion, Low Mood/Increased Anxiety, Sleep Disturbances, Mouth Ulcers, Chronic Nausea, Slight Fatigue/Brain Fog (Not Explained by Medications), Slightly More Frequent/Urgent Bowel Movements, Mild but Persistent Abdominal Discomfort, Decent Consistency of Stool, Mild Joint Pain/Inflammation, Migraines/Headaches, Changes in Skin (Inflammation, Acne, etc.), Worsening Menstrual or Premenstrual Symptoms, or Chronic Bloating.” There are graphics of a yellow stoplight, a half-full gas symbol, a ‘low battery,’ and warning/slow signs.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A light blue background with red EKG patterned boarder. The text reads “Red means something is wrong. It's time to STOP everything else and prioritize your health immediately. This is where IBD forces you to pay attention, whether you’re ready or not. Red means it’s time to: contact your gastroenterologist, take time off school/work, let someone else step in to care for you, follow strict diet/symptom-management protocols, reevaluate or switch medications, get imaging or scopes done, advocate HARD for yourself if you’re not being heard, and go to the ER or urgent care if needed. Red is scary, but it doesn’t mean failure. It means your body is fighting hard and needs you to listen.” There are bullet points with “red light signs” below, the text reads “Ongoing/Sudden Incontinence or Urgent Bowel Movements, Labwork w/ Significant Abnormalities (i.e. Inflammation or Anemia), Complete Loss of Appetite/Ability to Eat, Sudden/Dramatic Weight Loss, Emotional Overwhelm, Not Responding to Medications, Severe Abdominal Pain, Blood in Stool, Mucus in Stool, Dehydration, Fever, Vomiting, or Extreme Fatigue.” There are graphics of a red stoplight, empty fuel tank, ‘stop’ and ‘warning’ signs, and a red low battery symbol.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Two side-by-side photos of Alexis, a young woman with medium-brown skin and dark brown hair. There is a graphic of a curvy yellow arrow, pointing from the first photo to the second. The photo on the left is from Alexis’ freshman year of college, after just being diagnosed with IBD. Alexis is standing in front of a wall of ivy, wearing comfortable clothes. She is smiling, but looks pale and tired, with a bit of prednisone “moon face.” The photo on the right is from Alexis’ college graduation. She stands in front of a walkway with many arches, wearing a blue graduation cap and gown, with a yellow stole, and is smiling widely.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Infographic text reads: One in three women will experience a pelvic floor disorder in her lifetime. One in four women (older than 20) experiences pelvic floor symptoms. Inflammation -- Individuals with IBD often experience pelvic floor dysfunction, which can manifest as pelvic pain, urinary incontinence, or constipation. The inflammation and irritation associated with IBD can lead to muscle tightness and dysfunction in the pelvic floor area. Bladder Function — Many patients with IBD report urinary symptoms, such as urgency and frequency, due to the close proximity of the intestines and bladder. Inflammation in the bowel can affect bladder function, leading to discomfort and urgency.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Pelvic Health and IBD: An Infographic - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Infographic text reads: Surgery Implications — Surgical interventions for IBD, such as colectomy, can affect pelvic health. These surgeries can lead to changes in bowel habits and may result in complications like pelvic floor disorders, which can further impact quality of life and pelvic health. Stress of Managing IBD — The stress and anxiety associated with managing a chronic condition like IBD can lead to muscle tension in the pelvic area. Psychological factors may also exacerbate symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction, as stress can influence bowel and bladder habits.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Pelvic Health and IBD: An Infographic - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Infographic text reads: My Experiences — I recently visited Mayo Clinic in Rochester to participate in their 2 week intensive pelvic floor therapy program, as I am part of the 25% of women who has experienced pelvic floor symptoms! My time at Mayo left me with hope, homework, and healing! Some tangible tips I can share are to try and use the bathroom whenever you feel the urge or create a routine of using the bathroom at mealtimes, invest in a squatty potty to engage in the correct biomechanics, and practice getting in touch with your body to hopefully reduce the stress going to your pelvic floor (deep breathing and vagus nerve exercises are great places to start!)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Abject art: ‘Chicken Knickers’ by Sarah Lucas  ‘Abject’ The definition of abjection is "the state of being cast off." Julia Kristeva devised the intricate psychological, philosophical, and linguistic idea of the "abject" in her 1980 book Powers of Horror. She was influenced in part by the older views of Georges Bataille, a dissident surrealist and writer from France. Refuse and corpses, according to Kristeva, "show me what I permanently thrust aside in order to live." In reality, the term "abject" refers to all biological processes or physical characteristics that are viewed as impure or improper for discussion or show in public.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Learning to Center Myself in my IBD Journey</image:title>
      <image:caption>Gumbo is a thick okra-based stew that is native to the American South. It is the official plate of the state of Louisiana and has Creole and Cajun varieties. Creole gumbo tends to have seafood, dark roux, and filé powder from the sassafras plant. Cajun gumbo typically incorporates chicken, but variations will be found for both of these recipes in different households. There is often the presence of onions, bell peppers, and celery in this stew, but any of these can be omitted or substituted if they risk triggering a flare-up.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Learning to Center Myself in my IBD Journey</image:title>
      <image:caption>Mafé is a sauce made with peanut butter and tomato sauce. It is usually served over rice or couscous with meat. At Teranga, they prepared it with chicken but this can be served with a vegetarian or vegan substitute. Jollof rice is also native to West Africa (my mom says that it's absolutely native to Senegal but every country seems to have its own variation and claim to the recipe!). It gets its bright red appearance from tomato paste and spices. I grew up eating jollof rice almost exclusively with fish, but it pairs well with other meats and vegan options as well. The trademark flavor can still be obtained by excluding any spices or peppers that may aggravate a flare-up.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles - Learning to Center Myself in my IBD Journey</image:title>
      <image:caption>Plantains are a fruit related to the banana that exists all over the African Diaspora. It is an incredibly versatile dish that can be a snack or an entire meal. I grew up eating them fried in oil but there are other recipes that prepare them by roasting or even with an air fryer.</image:caption>
