Replied on Lemon water > celery water

That’s a great tip- thank you! I think someone commented during the live they blend celery w/ unsweetened coconut water and I thought that was also worth trying.

Nice! Do you mean frozen greens like spinach leaves or do you man a powdered version of power greens? I also like to sneak spinach into a lot of dishes I cook, but I would love to hear any other ways people are doing it for some inspiration!

Lemon water > celery water

Day #12 and here to say the lemon water (w/ ginger, cayenne, and turmeric) has become a daily habit but I am not predicting the same for celery water. I’m down for new experiences, but I’m pretty sure I made the same face I make when drinking shots.

I’ve been adding a few handfuls of fresh spinach to my lunch smoothies (frozen fruit, Greek yogurt, milled flaxseed & water) and that has been a really easy addition of more greens. In fact, it tastes really good w/ frozen pineapple. Interested to hear others’ strategies for adding extra greens to their diet.

I did this early morning before work, but actually this would be a good one if you’re looking for a class in the evening (a more restorative class).

Hi Anna! A friend of mine loves using Yogi Toes (a yoga mat towel) to help her not feel she is sliding off of her mat. I upgraded my yoga mat to a double-sided Lululemon mat (I’ve heard very good things about eko yoga mats and Jade mats as other quality brands). I keep the grippier side on the carpet and work on the smoother side. It still moves around a bit w/ a lot of jumping, but not w/ general changes in choreography. Some brands offer thicker mats for more cushion. If you’re working on a hard floor, I would add a layer of padding under a mat (for floor series work only) and see if layers of grippy shelf liners (sometimes used inside kitchen cabinets) could help keep it in place. Hope you find options that work for you!

The hour went by faster than I expected and I appreciate the use of all the props in one class. The meditation at the end really hit me tonight- I’ve started to write down the classes where Marnie’s words feel especially poignant so I can revisit that part of M/Body’s wellness in addition to the movement and stretch of this program. I cannot say how much I appreciate the balance of it all, and the lack of focus on weight loss, bathing suit shopping, etc.

Thank you for the encouragement! Using the mirror has helped me realize it more, but I’m sure the intuitive feeling will be more pronounced with time.

Day #10: Goal for the Week

Y’all, we are in the double digits of the Spring Challenge! 🎉 I’m enjoying reading others’ goals and look forward to reading more that get posted. This week I am continuing the goal of really minding my form- I think I lean my torso forward and that’s been adding to occasional knee discomfort. So continue watching my postural alignment in the mirror and keep my chest up. Additionally I am trying to replace the occasional breathless curse word with a smile when things get challenging to send the signal to my body and mind that this ALL fun, even the hard parts (fake-it-until-I-make-it).
