Liisa, I feel this deeply. I’m so sorry for the painful road you are on! I have a similar situation with my dad who is estranged and in poor health. I only share because I understand how very strange it is to grieve a difficult relationship and lament what you might have had in a different life. Sending love and prayers for you and your family as you support them too!

Caroline, connection!! I get decision fatigue too so some weeks I line up my workouts on the calendar based on what the live sessions are that week. For example, this week I did a 20 minute booty Monday, and a 20 min barre Tuesday (knowing cardio was Wednesday’s live). Then I’ll do a power sculpt and finished the week with abs (since Saturday is usually a signature or targets the whole body). My choices for timing (30, 45, 60) depend on my workload or social calendar. I don’t like to do 60 min on busy days because my body craves other ways to reset my nervous system. I hope this helps! Big takeaway is you’re not alone in this!!

I did this live without ankle weights after being unwell and it was the BEST movement for me! I just repeated it WITH ankle weights and got an entirely different and impactful experience. “Strength isn’t more powerful than alignment.” I felt this to be true both times!

My intention is to focus my thoughts and energy on the glimmers with gratitude through the hurdles

I felt a solid reset to my nervous system doing the 30 min ballet sculpt and stretch /534.

This released a lot of stored up emotion in me! Such a beautifully balanced combination of movement 👏🏼

The last combo in this feel like a beautiful dance flow! I did this a second time with 5lbs (did 3 before) and it was challenging but wonderful

This challenge has been…challenging for me 😅. I’ve been dealing with a chronic sinus infection for months and I’m finally realizing you can’t wait until you “feel great” to move on the mat (those of you with chronic conditions are already fully aware, I’m sure). These are some glimmers of me and my family being in the light or choosing movement (Simba even has his own little Movement ball!).

Any suggestions for the intense days when you crave/need movement but can’t tackle a 45 min sesh? Please share!
