About 10 months ago, I went to the M/body retreat in Italy. I had never done a workout before and I didn’t know who Marnie was. A friend asked me to go and I jumped at the chance to see Tuscany.

What I didn’t know when I agreed to go was that this would be a pivotal, life changing decision. Participating in the retreat and meeting all of the compassionate, powerful women was like nothing I’ve ever experienced.

As part of the retreat, we completed a prompted journal session each day. I had never journaled before and this also turned out to be a powerful habit that has stuck with me.

Today, while writing in my journal, I was documenting how much my outlook has changed for the better in the last almost year since.

Doing M/body improves, strength, balance, flexibility and endurance of my body, while also doing the same for my spirit. How is that all possible , in less than one hour a day? Thank you Marnie and to the M/body community for being such an amazing resource.

Hi All! We discussed this in the chat and during the class last Saturday, but here is a picture of my gardening knee pad that I use. It is nothing special, think it was $10 at Target, but it works wonders for my knees.

As I mentioned in the chat, my knee caps have been pulled to the outside of my knee due to over development of my outer thighs after years of playing year round volleyball (which is you always being in a squat position, ha! And back in the early days of club sports, there was no such thing as cross training) and my hyper-mobility going undiagnosed/treated. In high school I went to a ortho because I use to be in so much pain and that is when I had an x-ray taken. In the image, you can see the knee caps resting on the outside bone. I use this pad anytime we are on our knees.

Hope this tip helps others.

June, relaxing, while I’m on my 4th set of 8.

Hi global family, just wanted to share I’ve been going through a really tough time. I was recently laid off from my job and haven’t been taking it the best. I struggled to workout after it and today I did an m/body 60 minutes XXX 476 and Marnie’s words at the end brought me to tears. It was exactly what I needed to hear right now and am so thankful for this platform and community 🩷

I just listened to the glucose q & a.

Thank you for that input, I always find it very helpful!

So this morning we went out on the boat, got that sunlight, got nature, saw a lot of dolphins. But I also had a cappuccino and a croissant.

Perfect harmony 🌈 for me.

There is this saying in German:

the dose makes the poison.

Which I love, because it is so true….

Wishing everyone a beautiful summer!

Hi all! I’m not on socials, and I’m feeling very curious about this 60 day challenge a couple community members created! Would anyone be willing to share? I can’t remember who it was that put it together, or I’d shout you out individually! Thanks so much 😊

Working the mini today (way past bedtime here in Europe). We both loved it, and now she knows how to count to ten, Marnie is her English teacher… 😂

I’ve just joined and wondering if anyone has had good results just doing the 20 or 30 minute workouts around 4-5 times per week? I don’t get much time for the longer workouts so would love to hear if anyone else are doing the shorter ones regularly?
