Heather Cockburn Thank you & thank you extra for the positive vibes!! It’s really phenomenal how much it has all helped me have a way better experience than I thought. I knew I wanted to have one last fun barre dance before surgery then the gratitude meditation was beyond perfect, thanking all of my body for what it does. I’m going to continue that for sure throughout healing! In the meditation I had during and after surgery, it imagines outcomes in healing, and getting back into full energy to dance a 60 m/body sesh is my end goal as that feels like full freedom and expression! 🌟 One of my affirmations I had the anesthesiologist say as I was coming to in recovery room was that “I’d feel rested upon waking and ready to walk easily.” Once I really woke up all I wanted to do was get up and walk! Incredible how much it all helps!! Having this platform of positivity for the mind/body connect is so healing. Lots of love to you Heather ☀️🌈💛

Barre positivity helped my surgery be a success!

Hi everyone! I wanted to share with you that I had to have a hysterectomy surgery yesterday due to extremely painful menstruatuon cycles from uterine growths and I also have C.I.R.S. (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) so I was worried about surgery that it would set off more pain. I did Marnie’s Barbie barre 60 minute class the day before which was AMAZING and then the morning before surgery I did the gratitude meditation, really tuning into my body. Then the hospital let me listen to a meditation affirmation CD during surgery which I think massively helped. If anyone has an upcoming surgery I highly recommend Peggy Huddleston’s book, “Prepare for Surgery Heal Faster.” This photo is before surgery( the after is much more fatigued)… but I’m doing so much better than I thought! Will be with you all in spirit while I heal and can’t wait to dance again soon!! Lots of love to all 🩷
