I'll have to catch the 5 year anniversary class on the flippy flop which bums me out. 5 Years of working out virtually with this fantastic G/Family, and Marnie for 11 years, makes me so whole I can't describe it. but you guys know. I'm getting verklempt.. Have a wonderful Wonderful live experience. Marnie, you know how I feel about you, you goddess you. I am missing the live to attend the City of 29 Palms Strategic Planning Session and try to, among other things, convince the city manager not to give away precious resources and land to developments who will harm the natural flora and fauna of Joshua Tree National Park and surrounding areas. Why it's on a Saturday from 10-3? ..Desert style.  Remember to Breathe.  Open your eyes and look in to the light. xo 

CREATIVITY ACTIVITY #1: Blurts and Affirmations

Make a blurts and affirmation list.

Blurts are any negative or self-critical thoughts that surface when you unleash your creativity. Your affirmations counteract these blurts by replacing them with positive, empowering statements that reshape your internal narrative. 

Examples:

• Blurt: I always mess things up.

  • Affirmation: I am learning and growing every day.

• Blurt: What I want doesn’t matter.

  • Affirmation: My desires and dreams are important.

• Blurt: You’re just wasting your time.

  • Affirmation: Every creative act I pursue enriches my life.

The practice of replacing blurts with positive affirmations leverages neuroplasticity and can re-train our brain, turning negative self-talk into empowering beliefs!

NEW THEME + ACTIVITY INTRO 

Happy April and month of Creativity! For this new season, we’re going to try something fresh — each week there will be a fun activity posted on the Community Board. Every activity is designed to nurture your creativity and growth.

We also encourage you to get a journal and explore doing longhand, stream-of-consciousness writing every morning — no judgment, no expectations, just whatever lands on the page (try to aim for 15 minutes).

We'd love to be a part of your journey, so please comment and share your experience here as inspiration 🤍

Check back here tomorrow for your first Creativity Activity 🎨

Hi fam! I just had such a powerful workout experience I have to share! Fullbody flow 380.I have something going on which is causing me such anxiety and as soon as I got into the workout I felt this big rush of anger. And I kind of realised that as a 'nice girl' this is not an emotion I really allow myself to be in so it was getting all twisted up as out of control anxiety. The situation is still a mess but at least now I am not all knotted up and there is something about this anger energy which is very dynamic and maybe what I need to sort stuff out. Those are my thoughts! plus I get a shout in workout 380 which is always nice 😍
