I just had to share my useful if not slightly painful lessons learned from being a lapsed M/Body participant. I hope this helps the "older" members of this community. I'm 55 and realized that I needed to return to lifting much heavier weight. For many months now, I reduced my M/Body workouts from 4-6 times per week to only 1 while doing heavy lifting circuits 4-5 days per week. Every time I come back to M/Body, I get my ass kicked: my balance is way off, I'm drenched in sweat, and I fatigue much more quickly than in the past. While this is wonderful in many ways to challenge myself, it has also been very humbling. I realize the importance of BALANCE and how impactful M/Body has always been for my brain and body. My new goal is 3 M/Body workouts per week and 3 heavy strength/circuit training. 😍

Just came to say that I have been there with my own child when he was a teenager. I will never forget how he behaved for at least 2-3 years or the gross misrepresentation/delusion he had about his family, HOWEVER, with a amazing therapists, time, maturity, patience, letting go, lessons learned, and medication (him), our relationship has turned a 180 and I have my sweet boy back. My husband and I learned to keep quiet and non reactive, to be present, and to be good listeners as much as humanly possible. We really had to play the long game and it paid off. It's so hard to see your child in great pain and unable to regulate, but don't give up! You are not alone in this experience and I wish you peace.

Welcome to your 50’s. I’m fast approaching 56 and I can safely say that following M/Body has been hugely helpful to me since I joined. I’m so very grateful that this program and community exist. 💖

Sending you a virtual hug! I lost my 15 year-old dog a few weeks ago and it’s truly awful not having him here. He was my trusty workout buddy. I understand the loss. 💔

Thank you everyone for your kind words. My boy crossed the Rainbow Bridge on Tuesday. I took yesterday off from work and for once was able to join the Wednesday live! This helped me so much, even though it was rough not having him in the room with me as always. He was nearly 15-1/2 years-old and had a great life. 💜

This is where my dog always hangs out during my M/Body workouts. Today was his last Saturday live. 💔 (ignore the senior dog proofing floor coverings 🤪). I know there are so many pet lovers here who understand. I actually felt a lot of joy this morning. I am always lifted up by an M/Body workout and Marnie’s words! 💜
