Here’s a video from one of my favorite instructors 💖
Alternatively:
* A quick intense workout. I have the Melissa Wood Health app and she and her instructors really keep me sane. This is a free ten minute workout by her on YouTube that I LOVE. * Meditation. Tara Brach has so many for free on YouTube and the Insight Timer app! Her RAIN method guided meditations are really helpful for processing emotions. * EFT tapping. Seems wacky but it works… here’s a guided tapping video for depression. * Eat a sumptuous dessert * Drink lots of coffee * Deep clean and declutter! Very soothing * Hug a pet * Take a hot bath

🤸It is so nice to take a chill moment for yourself, and it’s really hard to. I’ve never been to a studio (yet) cause I‘m broke and anxious. I like it because it doesn’t feel like a competition, not even against yourself. It’s just moving into a position and trying to chill. It’s fine if you can’t reach your arms or whatever that far, whatever feels good, whatever your body likes. Even if it’s just 10 minutes, it really makes all the difference to check in with how your body parts are feeling, including your brain.
I am procrastinating my yoga right now.
I like Yoga with Kassandra and Yoga with Bird on youtube. I hope at least one person gets into yoga this way with me!

Best remedy against depression for me. Well right after sleep, hanging out with friends and eating good. It's low effort (bc I can do it in my room), high reward (endorphins yippee). Personally prefer Lilly Sabri's videos as she has a good balance between being motivational and reminding me to keep good form.

I unsubscribed for a while because my puppy was attacking me every time I would exercise so I resigned myself to a sedentary lifestyle but I think soon it will be time to get back on the horse. She offers Pilates, barr, yoga, standing counter workouts, pre/peri/postnatal workouts and dance workouts from herself and several other instructors. There are a lot of videos that use resistance bands, Pilates balls, Pilates circles and ankle/wrist weights too. Try the linked video to get a feel for her style!! Before I signed up for her membership I would just do her free videos on YouTube! I should do this workout right now honestly… 🤧 (edit I did it and it’s crazy how different I feel) I love her because she doesn’t talk about the visual results her workouts will help you achieve but about how good it feels to exercise for your mental and physical health!!! She offers meditations too!
I would also recommend 30-day yoga challenges from Yoga with Adriene or Travis Eliot both will really whip you into shape and help you build foundational strength.
I recommend Ballet Beautiful with Mary Helen Bowers if you hate yourself and want a cold waspish ballerina to punish you humble you and nearly kill you. It’s extremely challenging but rewarding.

It lends a reflective and wistful tone to written communications imo…

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
