Hi!! I'm a photographer, artist, mother, and ever hopeful that I will one day make it to an IRL class with Marnie and the fam!

This was humbling.. found so many of the moves uber challenging, and just when I felt like I should quit, or think that modifying was somehow less than (this is a battle), Marnie came in with the warmest encouragement. This class is a beautiful space to grow :-)

This is a sneaky one. I felt really connected and strong, but drenched in sweat! Loved the tree message at the end as well.

Grace totally feels like the word of the moment. Man, it’s just so hard sometimes.. we give it out to others, but not always to ourselves. I appreciate your example, and send all my hugs to you on your road to that negative covid test 💜

Thinking about others is such a good thing to get us out of our negative self view. Hang in there Beáta. Millimeters, not miles with your relationship to yourself 💜

I replied to your second post, but I want to add here: there’s so much that could be said, but this comment thread seems like a hard place to do it.. there’s so much with M/BODY that continues to challenge my own personal bullshit, and I appreciate the gentle guidance. I truly love your words.. and really thank you for your time 💜

There’s just so much that could be said with your lovely essay. I’ve screenshoted the whole thing to keep in mind. So, some background— I was a very overweight unathetic child, and teased mercilessly by friends, family, and everyone else for years. I compensated by being academic and artistic, trying to prove my value over and over through those areas. I finally took some drastic and unhealthy measures as a teen and changed my body.. so unfortunately adulthood has been fraught with fear that I would return to that state. It’s not logical or fair.. and the last few years have been a practice of dealing with this toxic habitual behavior.

Not a rant at all, but a seriously informed experience. Thank you! I do some cycle tracking when it comes to moods, my skin, knowledge on when to expect my period, etc, but it seems like it would be a huge help to think about tracking with a physical energy perspective too.

I’m definitely going to journal with this in mind for a while. It’s similar to something my own therapist had me do, but what you shared is much more structured. Thank you so so much 💜🤗

Hold on Laura 💜 deciding to slowly get back to the mat in an intentional way is so beautiful, even if depression might tell you otherwise. Love to you 💜
