Why I ❤️ Body Rolling and wish more people knew about this!

✨️90 min of body rolling w yamuna balls✨️

The goal of this beautiful body work
✔️to create physical space to reduce friction in joints and preventing joint replacement
✔️stimulate the bones!!!Yes the bones are living tissue and They matter a lot!
✔️ realign the supporting tissues (muscles, ligaments, tendons)
✔️stimulate the blood flow, energy into your living tissues
✔️reduce pain
✔️making your more aware, conscious
And the list can go on and on

🧨By staying in one place, we begin to sink down, breathing slowly and deeply and our nervous system begins to unwind and start releasing tightness, tension from all layes or our body

The Yamuna Body Rolling is

✨️healing
✨️nourishing
✨️grounding
✨️connecting
✨️supporting your body

After practice, students report that they feel
❤️calm and relaxed
❤️spacious and ligher in the body
❤️more aware and connected to themselves
❤️grounded
❤️move with more ease for ex.play golf much better
❤️less pain

Tomorrow, I am offering this class online.
Saturday at 8am

How we feel emotionally and physically has such a profound impact on how we feel energetically and mentally.

✨️When we are tired, overwhelmed, tense, or carrying too much, we often have less space — for ourselves, for others, for joy, for connection.

✨️And when we slow down, breathe, move, roll, and give ourselves a moment to simply be… something begins to shift.

We create space.

Space to feel..

Space to breathe.

Space to listen.

Space to reconnect with ourselves.

This is why I believe bodywork can be so much more than exercise.

Sometimes, when we create space in the body, we create a little more space for life, too. 🤍

This morning I received a message from one of my students telling me how much she enjoys my class and how grateful she is for me.

And honestly… it felt really good. ❤️

I know my value doesn’t come from other people’s approval. That’s an ongoing inner practice for me.

But being appreciated feels good. Being seen feels good. And sometimes, we simply need to hear that we matter.

It got me thinking…

How often do we feel grateful for someone but never actually tell them?

So maybe today, send that text. Tell your friend, your family member, your favorite teacher or instructor—or even your pet 🐾—how much you appreciate them.

“I’m grateful for you.”
“I’m so glad you’re in my life.”
“You make a difference.”

Don’t assume they know.

**Tell them. ❤️**

One of my favorite ways to give my hips some space — especially after biking. 🚲

Sit on a Yamuna ball, placing it between the sit bones. Take a few slow breaths and imagine the breath moving all the way down into the pelvic floor.

Then, very gently, begin to roll the ball toward one sit bone.

Nothing forceful. Just enough movement to create a little more space through the pelvis and hips.

I love this after a long bike ride because it feels like a reset — releasing some of the compression and inviting the hips, pelvic floor, and surrounding tissues to soften.

Sometimes the most effective work is incredibly simple:
breathe, create space, and let the body respond.

Today I went biking with a friend from Springfield to Old Town.

On the way there, she was my guide. I felt safe knowing she knew the way.

But on the way home, I had to go on my own.

And I noticed how scared I was.

I didn’t fully trust myself to navigate an unfamiliar area. I questioned whether I could actually do the whole trip alone. My mind came up with plenty of reasons to doubt myself.

And then I thought… isn’t this what life is like?

We’re on a path. Sometimes we have a direction, but we don’t know exactly where it will take us. We make wrong turns. We get lost. Unexpected things happen. We get tired.

At one point, I actually ended up in the woods. 😄

But I found my way back.

Not perfectly. Not without fear. Not without getting tired or making mistakes.

But I did it.

And I realized how much fear can hold us back when we believe we need to feel confident before we take the next step.

Maybe we don’t.

Maybe we can feel the fear, acknowledge it, and go anyway.

Maybe courage isn’t the absence of fear. Maybe it’s trusting ourselves enough to move forward while the fear is still there.

My friend inspired me to take this trip.

And somewhere on the way home, I realized that the bigger journey was mine.

I want to remember this:

I don’t have to know the whole way.
I just need to trust myself enough to take the next turn.

Even when I’m scared. ❤️

This morning, while my husband and kids were still sleeping at the hotel, I quietly slipped out for a walk.

I wandered through the peaceful streets of the beautiful medieval town of Kutná Hora, breathing in the fresh morning air and enjoying the rare gift of silence. No rushing, no expectations—just me, walking, noticing, and being present.

On this vacation, I made a promise to myself: to take care of me.

Not only when life is calm, but especially in the middle of busy days—traveling, being with family, spending 24 hours a day together, and all the beautiful chaos that comes with it.

I've realized that taking care of myself doesn't have to mean something big. Sometimes it's simply giving myself twenty or thirty quiet minutes, listening to my own thoughts, and remembering that my needs matter too.

This walk reminded me that I don't have to disappear in order to take care of the people I love. The more I care for myself, the more present, patient, and joyful I can be with them.

So this is the promise I'm keeping—not just on vacation, but every day: I won't forget myself.

Wish me luck😁❤️✨️
