Mbody Retreat 1 Roommate Reunion!! Maggi came through Denver and I got to see her! We were roommates at the Italy 2023 retreat. Her jumps are WAY impressive; so much air! This photo has been edited to see the mountains, which is prettier than the industrial park where we took the photo. 😂

Intention and Eclipse revelation.

Had to share this story because reflecting on it I realized a lot, especially after the post I made here a few weeks ago about life being rough and refinding my creative intentions (which has been going good! Wrote the 1st act of my feature film and have been writing lyrics in my notebook again!)

Our 14 year old nephew is up for the week and loves to make ghost hunting videos with Caz and I for our silly little paranormal youtube we started to find some fun while were home for the foreseeable future. (My mans mom was diagnosed with ALS and we're full-time care taking and unable to tour)

It was the night of the lunar eclipse and we had a big storm. Tornado came thru earlier that day and everything was okay but there were branches and trees down everywhere. So like silly heads, we set out to a spot near us with a windy dirt road that leads to a creepy tunnel. Well we took our big conversion van up and there was a huge tree down blocking our way through to the tunnel. We had to back the van down the windy road in the dark. I was guiding the van with a flashlight in hand and there's a beautiful waterfall we love to hang out at with a very narrow stone and dirt bridge that the falls empty into. While guiding Caswyn across the bridge, the dirt road gave out under my foot and I thought i was gonna take a little slip, I hike a lot and am used to that, but this time I kept going. I fell off and into the ravine, hitting rocks and slid straight into the rushing water. Everything changed in a second and a million thoughts went through my head during those 12 feet. The rapids were super high and I was totally submerged but got my head above water and made it to a rock where I gathered myself and realized nothing was broken! I was okay aside from a huge scratch and gnarly bruise on my thigh and a bruised hand. The best part is, somehow I kept the flashlight up and out of the water, my nephew said "I statued of liberty'd that shit"

So in reflection, and with today's meditation. Earth did catch me when I fell and the water held me and somehow, even though I fell off a bridge, my light didn't go out. We fall and can get back up and I fell hard and far, in more ways then one lately. Everything can change in a second but I felt protected.

I share this story for that reason, and yes, i'm incredibly lucky I didn't get injured or worse. And while it was scary, its given us a lot of joy to laugh about. I had on shorts, sweatpants over them and a sweater and my woodland slippers 🤣 i felt like a swamp monster emerging from the depths when I climbed out. We still made our silly video and watched the eclipse with Cazs mom at the end of the night. It was a life changing moment and I had to share 💙 even in the darkness we still hold the light, even if we fall we can get back up and Earth has our back. I also learned, we can even fall and tumble with grace and learn from it when we get back up. Love yall so much, so grateful for this community and the life we have.

Here's a photo of the bridge I fell from, and the eclipse from that night 💙

Wow y’all! I just realized I’ve hit my SIX YEAR Marniversary 💪✨🌈🙌❣️ I don’t know the exact date anymore but I know I joined M/body in August 2020 so I could participate in the 60 day challenge- what a source of joy during COVID! This has been SUCH a place of strength and happiness for me these past 6 years and I plan to continue for as long as my body allows🥰 I’m so grateful for this platform and for all of you badass babes cheering me on along the way 😘

After Marnie spoke about her Care Bear last week I got my old Care Bear out. Sending a Care Bear stare to you all ❤️

Hello lovely fam,

I'm here again asking for strength and positive energy. I have suffered another loss in my life. Yesterday I found out that my dearest and closest friend (who lived about 4500 kms from me) died after a short illness. She was only 65. I'm gutted. I didn't get to say goodbye. The grief weighs heavily upon me.

Be sure to tell your loved ones how you feel about them. Don't wait till tomorrow. It might be too late 💔😢

Hi community!

I would like your help :D

I'm now 4 weeks post partum and would like to slowly ease back on the mat. Can anyone recommend some light workouts to start out with?

After close to a month, I’ve finally landed back on the mat. I’ve completed all my missing live classes and welcomed our new theme(which always feels perfectly times for my life).

My sweet mother had her left kidney removed due to a renal cell carcinoma, and I immediately went to take care of her. I held her hand before the surgery, and promised that I would be there when she woke up. We eased into a daily routine of movement, pain management, healthy eating(I cooked everyday!) and all the girl talk. I helped her shower, gave her pep talks, and sat on the floor next to her bedside every night while we watched Britbox until bedtime. It was work but I felt privileged to be in the position to care for my parent who has always cared for me.

So my intention is to care for myself in the same loving, powerful, healthy way I cared for my mother. Give myself grace to catch up to my healing, be loving in healthy habits, try to never question my progress as too slow and to find the fun and joy in the hardest of times. Grateful for the love and support of the M/BODY fam, who never waver in offering light and strength. Thankful that I always have a place to return, keeping me balanced and in the light 💛💫

Hi everyone ❤️ I have something I would gratefully receive your thoughts / ideas / experiences about. I get quite anxious with some intrusive thoughts - manageable most of the time 🤣 - but I often find that exercising can set the anxious thoughts off while I am doing it. Even though in the longer term I know it’s so good for me. Does anyone have any advice or thoughts on this - it is so frustrating for me as I think it stops me getting to the mat / puts me off doing the longer work outs. Thank you so much! Emily
