Labby spies waterfowl.

Surprisingly her hound brother had next to no interest. It’s chipmunks or bust for him these days.

Saturday thoughts.
-
I’ve been practicing centering more throughout my days to try and maintain a sense of equilibrium through this latest season of the pandemic.
-
In one practice you connect with your front body as representative of the future and back body as a representative of your history and your ancestors.
-
It helps to think of the love of thousands having your back as you move through the troubling present.

Your Jazzy the Spazzy Labby moment o’ the day.
-
I recently got a program offered by @livingbeyondobedience called Wow Your Walk, because, we’ll, our walks could use some wow and much less OW!
-
I learned this week that my lil retriever loves hunting more than retrieving. And, what does she love to hunt most? Socks!
-
I mean this dog is a nut! This morning I came downstairs, she hunted up a sock, courtesy of Theo, and brought me her spoils.
-
I think she’s telling me all about her bravery in finding the sock.
-
She’s our one and only Lab-Indoor-Sock-Triever

Sometimes as I’m picking up around the house I stumble across little love notes my kids make each other.
-
Their friendship and love is one of my greatest joys.

I’ve been playing around with a new #style and have been enjoying it! This was a #tattoo #design done for my friend @jen12hope21 to commemorate our #friend from elementary school who died. It was her concept, where she would get #lungs tattooed in a #floral arrangement, and when displayed upside down, it would make a #heart . Done in #procreate on #ipad !

Super excited for today’s workshop, Breath and the Nervous System.
-
After the learning portion we’re going to do a few explorations of ways to help bring the social engagement system online to help make breath more accessible and we’ll explore some movements to help unlock the diaphragm if it is not moving well.
-
If you missed out on registering but would like to have access to the recording of this and join us live for the two upcoming workshops, comment below or message me!

Did someone say #nationalsonsday ?
-
This kiddo. I love this picture so much because it captures his essence so well. On the go, joyful, curious, outgoing and always able to find the thrill in what he’s doing whether it’s reading, playing soccer, cards, math, legos or singing In the Heights at the top of his lungs.
-
Love you to the moon and back and I’m so lucky to be your mom.

Love this girl so much! Her creativity, wit, intelligence, empathy, and ability to make a trip into the kitchen for a snack into a contemporary dance exploration. I’m lucky to be her mama.

Love this post from @flow.state.space
-
I am always asking everyone from my clients to my children “where do you feel that in your body?”
-
When we slow down enough to listen, it is astounding the things our body has to tell us.

What are the simplest things you are doing that bring you joy?
-
Meditating with Jazzy nearby is one for me. Being on our newly painted and decorated three-season porch is another.
-
These simple acts can have such a powerfully positive impact on our wellbeing.

Tell me yours in the comments.

After talking with a dear friend about the current state of overwhelm around the duration and impact of the pandemic I wrote a blog about the impacts of living in a state of extended trauma.
-
I don’t know anyone who hasn’t felt pushed past their capacity in the last 20 months.
-
We are past the point of quick fixes or nervous system hacks. We need simple practices in the regular.

Have a read. Link is in link tree in my bio.

You are not alone.

One very sweaty (auto-correct wanted that to be sweary…they’re not wrong!) HIIT workout done. 🏋️‍♀️
-
I love my yoga, but my body craves variety. These workouts are all about Breathless and Burn. Pushing until those two points forces me to rest and lights up the parts of me that need lighting up - I’m talkin to you middle aged hormones!!
-
Going to go take a slow stroll around the block to cool down.
