But really. Someone please come peel me off my mat. The bi’s and the tri’s and my ego is wounded.

Be like Major give 100% to your goals, even if it’s a little delusional. He sprinted off to chase a squirrel. He thinks he’ll be able to kill one someday, I think I’ll be able to press into handstand.

We are making lemons out here.

(Aka the opportunities through work that can turn into goals reached or the lemonade). Never mind haha

my bestie Dione @prediabetes.nutrition told me she hadn’t used a scale in years, and how it changed her relationship with food and her body and ensured that her kids had a healthy relationship with them too.

I threw my scale away 3 months ago now and it changed everything. Instead of weighing myself 3 times a day to see if the number moved and choosing foods based on how it could change that number I started going off of feeling instead.

Would this food, this exercise give me more energy? Do I want to eat this because it’s delicious or because I’m bored? Do I need rest to recover or do I need to go move to help me?

I want to do things out of loving myself, not punishing myself or treating myself based on an arbitrary number on a scale.

F that.

My long term goals for health and wellness have nothing to do with a number or my weight. I was getting so wrapped up in something that was definitely ruining my progress. Not helping or measuring in a way that was healthy or reliable. Especially as a women whose cycle change hormones, water weight, mood, energy levels and so much more.

What a silly marketing concept I’ve been trapped in. taken in Louisville, Kentucky by @abe__leigh

Stretch your hamstrings, build shoulder muscle, and deepen core strength. this foundational pose can be a great place to spend lots of time. It’s a lot harder than it looks. Ensure proper form! Engaged abs, glutes, hands, and feet to help protect your body especially your lower back. Neck and spine should remain neural and always keep your shoulders from creeping up to your neck.

Keep your hips and your standards high ❤️‍🔥 taken in Louisville, Kentucky by @abe__leigh

I know how to stack my hips over my shoulders, how to breathe, how to hold firm pieces of my body, and how to scrunch my fingers but I still couldn’t hold a handstand. Even after practicing for years, it’s because I didn’t have the strength not because I didn’t have the skill.

The Spider-Man challenge has really helped me to have fun building strength. Strength is just as important as mobility in advanced yoga practices taken in Louisville, Kentucky by @abe__leigh

I used to hate running. now I still hate the act but love how badas* I feel during and after. Major got up to 25 miles a week during my marathon training — he’s excited to get back into it
