thank you for reminding me to get back into stretching and that it can be done incorrectly LOL i do believe that poses can be done incorrectly (but not if its painful obvs) im literally so sedentary with no good reason to be.
i agree with all of this, especially as someone who likes to take things with more ease, but also wants to be my best self. it’s more about not beating myself up and thinking i need to do xyz because someone said so. ya girl just wants to feel good 💕
This was such a great reminder of how simple it can be to just feel a little better. I started stretching while reading this hah! I'm actually quite good with dry-brushing before a shower because I noticed how much it helps with recovery after running. Wild. I also wished for (and received) those suction cups that you use on your body in the shower - have you tried them? Brutal but so satisfactory too.
I should have instructed the stretch while consuming! Wow that’s so good to know re running recovery. I haven’t tried those suction cups but now I know my next wellness splurge…
Thank you for this. I’m the same - I’ve always been a highly motivated person and that’s fallen way out of fashion recently with all the slow living stuff. There’s absolutely room for both but I feel like I have to hide my ambition and self improvement challenges because it’s seen as pro-hustle. I like hustle.
my Pilates instructor gave me a dry brush for Christmas and it’s been sitting in a drawer since then… pulling it out today thank you very much! …also you got me with that “repetition can be a form of change”… amen!
Okay to be fair, chewing food to liquid state is hard work and time-consuming
It takes so much time…..
All here for the fiber > protein message. Apart from prebiotic sodas, it’s shocking how little pro-fiber messaging there is.
There’s a lot of pro-probiotic but not enough pro-fiber! Agreed - Poppi doesn’t count lol
Chewing is the first step of digestion :)
I know it and yet I can’t execute
That's how I feel about stretching! Lol

Totally - we all are though! It’s one of those things that I need an annual reminder to prioritize

love this !!!! any recommendations on which dry brush / where from or are they all pretty much the same? ordering asap !!!!
So I thought they were the same until I tried that one I linked from Tronque and I think it’s SO much better than the random Amazon one I used to use

Yes!! Anything that tells you that you “should” be a certain way is worth questioning imo
2025 is the year we all learn to do lymphatic drainage massages - adore this list 💛
Yes! We’re all in it together! Thank you 😇
Yes to all of this, especially eating more plants.
!!!!
Chewing your food!! Yes!!!
sounds so dumb but it makes all the difference!

Wait I love that you exchanged holiday presents with your Pilates instructor. That line always hits!!
Great new year read. Ordering that brush. Happy new year! (What is the cut off date on that?)
