I try to change up the style of class so I’m not too much in any body part. For example, I’ll do a more barre class one day and then do one with more floor work the next. I also spread out my workout days so that there’s built in rest. Also, the classes from May/June with the float floor work have been very good for overall mobility and flexibility.

Of course M/Body has book girlies! Kristin Hannah’s newest book The Women, about nurses during the Vietnam war, is a great read. Thoughtful, romantic and totally sucks you in.

Hey Yvonne

I wanted to share my experience. An amazing dermatologist helped me deal with a version of this. #1 only clean soaps, moisturizers and cleansers (mine is Vanicream)

#2 I use a therapeutic sulfur mask (mine is Peter Thomas Roth) every single day.

Once things cleared up, I stuck to this routine and it’s changed my life and my skin. We’re bombarded with messages that we should have a complex and expensive skin care routine but like Marnie said, simple and clean is best. Having skin issues can really hurt our self-esteem so I’m sending you love and healing.

Happy Birthday Linnea! Here’s what I’ve learned - this decade, more than any other, is about being exactly who you are. No apologies, no explanations. It’s liberating in ways I didn’t anticipate. Physically, I try to eat clean and well. Sleep is super important. Finding ways to destress and center (for me it’s meditation and walking). A big thing for me - don’t hold stuff in, it manifests in all the wrong ways. Wear the cutest stuff you own, don’t wait for special occasions. M/Body has been with me for 4 years now and it’s made me stronger than years of cardio, weights and Pilates. I wish my 25 year old self could have known how good my 40’s would look and feel. The number is one thing but the vibe? That’s all you baby!

What a way to celebrate an anniversary! Since this coincides with my 4 year anniversary, here's 4 ways that M/Body has M/powered me:

Loving my body for being able to do all these moves (yes, even the planks).

Showing up for myself 4x week for 60 mins classes in cute fits that make everything more fun (yes, even the pushups).

The wisdom Marnie shares between all the four sets of 8's follow you off the mat and changes you.

In #40, the first Halloween class, Marnie said "no more compromise" and those 3 words have been transformational to my soul (and my booty).

Love to the whole fam!

Moves on moves on moves! This class is perfect for the season - grounding us in the earth while challenging us to bloom.

Hey Costanza! I like having a core group of go-to’s for each meal so that I choose from the “playlist” rather than have to make brand new decisions each day. For example, breakfast is eggs or sweet potato. Lunch is salad with chicken or with turkey and dinner is one of 10 options. Even the treats are from a “best of” list. That way, I don’t have decision fatigue or a sense of a good/bad food day bc all options are good. Hope this helps!

Controversial take but would love a Zoom fundraiser. M/Body is such a community-oriented space and it would great to workout together for a cause - Glutes for Good!

New merch idea: a muscle tee that says: "Beyonce, Cher, Tina, Marnie & Me"💪

At peace, in my power, in my happy place.
