We hear this all the time: “I know what I’m supposed to do. I just can’t seem to make myself do it.”

And usually, our first instinct is to blame ourselves.

👉I’m lazy
👉I have no discipline
👉I need to get more motivated

But before you decide the problem is you, get curious about the setup.

What feels annoying? What takes too much time? What are you dreading? What only works when everything goes perfectly?

Sometimes one small change can make the thing you've been trying to force yourself to do feel a whole lot easier.

What’s one thing you could make easier this week? 💜

So... how did it go?

Maybe you checked less. Maybe you thought about your body less. Maybe you actually noticed the urge to check more once you were paying attention to it.

There's no right result here.

The experiment was just to notice.

What did you notice? Share below, if you feel comfortable 💜

How often do you look in the mirror because you actually need to see something... and how often are you checking to see if your body looks “okay”? 🤔

This week, we're curious what happens if we separate the two

Use the mirror. Get dressed. Fix your hair. Check your teeth. Make sure everything is where it's supposed to be.

But when you notice yourself checking your body for reassurance, see what happens if you don't

No need to do this perfectly. Just notice the urge, and notice what happens when you don't automatically respond to it. (This goes for store window reflections too...)

We'll check back in on Friday 😉

You can't tell someone's relationship with their body by looking at their body.

For decades, Sylvester Stallone's body was held up as an image of strength and fitness 💪

This week, he told The New York Times something the public didn't know 👀

Behind that body was an obsession with maintaining it, an eating disorder, and choices he now says came at a terrible price. And maybe that's worth sitting with.

Because we're shown bodies all the time and encouraged to think:

👉 That's healthy.
👉 That's fit.
👉 That's what I should be working toward.

But a body can't tell us any of those things.

🥗 We can't see someone's relationship with food.
✨We can't see how they feel about themselves.
🏃‍♀️ We can't see what it takes to maintain their appearance.
👟 We can't see whether exercise supports their life or has started taking it over.

A body is not a health report.

And someone else's appearance was never meant to be the blueprint for yours.

Maybe fitness can be less about creating a body that looks fit... and more about building a relationship with movement that actually feels good to live with.

We hear this all the time: “I just do better when other people are there”

And sometimes finding what works for you really is that simple

Our Small Groups are capped at 5 people, so you still get individual coaching, just with a little more company

There’s nothing wrong with wanting to take care of yourself 💜

Moving your body, eating foods that nourish you, getting enough sleep, managing stress, caring about your health... those can all be really good things.

But somewhere along the way, “wellness” can start to look a lot like another set of rules.

🥗 Eat this 🙅‍♀️Never eat that
🕛 Wake up at 5
👟 Get your steps
🏃‍♀️ Do the workout
💊 Take the supplements
✍️ Optimize everything

And suddenly, taking care of yourself becomes another way to constantly monitor yourself, and do it "right" or do it "wrong"

Maybe part of wellness is also learning to turn down some of that noise. To listen to yourself and do it because it's what you want and need, and not because someone on the internet told you what your body needs. Maybe wellness isn't about becoming better at following the rules. Maybe it's about becoming better at listening to yourself

We hear some version of this all the time

“I think I need to get stronger.”
“I know I should be moving more.”
“I haven’t worked out in forever.”
“I have no idea where to start.”

You don’t need to know what kind of training you need, how often you should come, or even exactly what your goals are before you reach out

That’s part of what we’re here for

Tell us a little about yourself, what’s been going on, and what you’re hoping exercise might add to your life. We’ll talk through the options and help you figure out what makes sense
