Faith Kelly - I got the chance to listen to the playlist this morning. I added it to my library. Thank you! I loved it. I used to sing and play a smidge bit of piano, so it's comforting listening to our fam. Def in good company. I miss singing so much. You all inspire me. Can't wait to here more about your tour!

Hey Rochelle KaplanRudolph I'm sorry to hear about your pain. I can imagine its not so fun. Im sorry youre going through this.

I experience on and off knee pain in my left knee. For me, it's typically when I am leaning to forward in particular knee bent positions which is remedied by stacking my ankle to knee to hip alignment. My left ankle is weaker than my righ and it tends to roll in causing a chain reaction to my knee and hip. I purchased an affordable ankle brace and ill wear it on occasion to get a lift in that ankle. I'm not exactly sure what you're experiencing but I hope it gets or has gotten better!! Love you lots Rochelle! I hope you are well!

Hey Nina, how are you? This is a great question here and wonderful comments.

Currently, I've began meal planning/prepping. I cook from scratch (mostly) and I found its incredibly simplistic and creative. I've found joy and peace in this. It lessons my anxiety to know what the family meals are regularly. We eat the same weekly, unless it's a special occasion. Its veggies, fruit, grains, and protein. And yes, balancing out eating plenty of protein for has been a priority, I'll have protein shake when needed, specifically on days I weight train. I began weight lifting with my husband a few months(along with m/body routine) a few times a week for my personal goals and bonding with him.

I drink my water, take a multi-vitamin, not too much caffeine, and a daily walk as a meditation and to get fresh air, sunshine,and perspective. And most importantly, loving others whole heartily, remembering we all human who are worthy of love and respect.

Saving grace: M/BODY has been a constant in my life for 2 and half years. It has brought joy into my life that makes my heart smile. ❤️ I recognize that through the trauma I have experienced I get scared to be vulnerable at times and I get lost in waves of fear, I am sorry for that. It's still odd to me connecting virtually and yet I still feel a connection with you all. Maybe because our hearts know no bounds. I get scared I'll be judge based on what has happened to me when I desire to be loved for what my heart is made of and not what I've been through. And when I'm dancing, the fear and bad things cease to exist and only love is present. Everything makes sense being in the moment while dancing and playing. For all who has had their hearts pierced with pain, grief, and loss you are not forgotten ❤️ This work has reminded me of that. This work has reminded me that I can let go of the shame I've carried & I can soften, I can learn to forgive, and that there is so much joy to be had even in the midst of our sufferings. M/BODY has helped me do this through physically moving my body daily, by allowing me to soften and listen to the depth of my heart. And you all have accepted me with such love and grace even at times when I couldn't accept myself. ✨️ It's a gift I'll always appreciate and keep in my heart. Thank you. It's absolutely beautiful. In my heart, M/BODY embodies grace and beauty. I love you. Thank you for listening.
