Thrilled to say that this is the first EVER M/Body challenge where I’ve hit my original goal within the challenge period (woohoo!). I completed 45 workouts (something I didn’t think I would hit because I didn’t do any “formal” workouts during a 6-day vacation) and 48 wellness activities. And it all happened without fatiguing or stressing my body. Over time, I’ve made regular workouts a real habit (I try to work out 4-5 days a week and add in as much extra walking as I can), but this challenge was confirmation of just how much this habit has been incorporated into my life, and to how well I’ve been able to listen to my body and what it needs. One day I felt that I needed to “relax”, for instance, but realized I needed movement to do that: so I did a gentle yoga class, which was exactly what I needed. It’s these little things that show me just how much movement has entered my life, and how grateful I am to have turned a priority into a healthy need (all with the help of M/Body and this amazing community, of course). Feeling really proud!

Commented on Integrating the chair more? 😍

I have a love-hate with chair dance workouts. Safety for me is #1 when working out, so I can sometimes be a little hesitant or anxious when trying a semi-unfamiliar tool. This chair dance was challenging in a good way, both mentally and physically--I'm still sore!--but I do wish that some aspects of it had been slowed/broken down a little more so I felt more confident/comfortable throughout. I would love a foundational chair class in the future: something that breaks down moves in a step-by-step way that we'll incorporate and build upon in future chair classes, if they become more frequent. I don't know if chair classes will ever be something I'll want to do all the time, but it is fun to see the new challenges that can come from a new tool! And future classes will allow me to see which of my home chairs work best, too :)
