Fixating on a ridged diet or workout trend, may get you immediate results…but it’s not sustainable because it will deplete you.

And physically that translates to inflammation, visceral fat around the mid section, weakness & exhaustion.

If you are a mom, mover, maker, people pleaser, perfectionist or all of the above, these 6 morning rituals will literally change your energy, mood, and the way you show up each day ☀️

These habits have personally become sacred to me, and the rare days I don’t make time for it, I feel more scattered with less energy to give out.

More than anything this time is for YOU. Before phones, emails, obligations. It’s pretty much the most important time of day.

Are you doing an of these now? If not, has anything else helped? Let me know your thoughts 👇

Strong Abs, Healthy Spine ✨

Join me in the sun-kissed dunes of northern Cali ☀️. A few clips from the latest class, just added to my virtual studio!

Here we are working on strengthening our abs in flexion, while simultaneously stretching mobilizing that spine. If your back is feeling stiff, this is a really great flow for unlocking tension.

Give this Pilates sequence a try, & turn up the volume for cues 📣

(1) Roll up variation, single leg. Add in a twist.
(2) Roll down into single leg stretch
(3) Side lying hip strength & mobility
(4) Saw Stretch
(5) Neck pull, roll up variation

Ps, I love filming in studio, but during the summer, I try to film as many classes as I can out in beautiful nature.

You can hear the birds & breeze, & feel the ocean air even on screen.

All of my members say that is calms their nervous systems and energizes them at the same time ✨

July Recap ☀️

It’s my first summer living in Sonoma, and it’s the most present I’ve been in a long time.

I had an epiphany in the midst of burnout early this year, that I no longer wanted to live the way I had been - getting so caught up in my to do lists that by the end of the year I couldn’t remember anything.

This summer I’ve been creating space everyday for something that feels like a vacation…

Beach picnics & ocean/river dips after teaching, connecting with family & new friends, hikes in new locations, new recipes.

Giving yourself space to put aside to do lists and create daily novelty is often the antidote for overwhelm, and the catalyst for energy, creativity, & inspiration ✨

Who feels me on this?

All you need to feel like yourself again during & post travel ☀️

(1) Take Electrolytes or Mineral Drops first thing in the morning and before/ after flying - It will help keep you hydrated, boost your energy, & reduce water retention.

(2) Get your feet in the earth 🍃. Walking or doing gentle movement barefoot in the grass, water, or sand helps reduce inflammation & reorients your body after travel.

(3) Take Magnesium before bed 🌙
It helps with muscle relaxation & getting you out of that wired/tired state.

(4) Movement! If you’re sitting for long periods, especially flying crunched up in weird positions, your body needs movement to help you stimulate lymph flow & circulation, and bring fluidity back into your joints & muscles.

(5) Put your legs up against a wall. This is one of the best things to do to reduce swelling & inflammation after traveling or sitting for a long time, & to help you unwind ✨

My 7 Day Travel Workout Plan + Jet Lag Reset will take you from feeling stiff, swollen, & depleted, to grounded & rejuvenated.

Strength training is so important, especially for us women over 40…but how you move determines how long those results last…

When you layer in Pilates foundations (breath, alignment, and deep core activation) you’re not just training muscles, you’re training your nervous system and movement patterns.

This is what creates true body resilience 👇

✔️Better muscle recruitment: Activating deep core muscles & stabilizers improves how your larger muscles fire, so you get more out of every rep.

✔️Joint support + injury prevention: Proper alignment and control reduces unnecessary strain on joints, especially the spine, hips, and shoulders.

✔️Improved force transfer: A strong, connected core allows energy to move efficiently through the body - meaning more strength, without overcompensation.

✔️Nervous system regulation: Breath-led movement helps you stay out of fight-or-flight, so your body can actually adapt and recover.

I love Pilates by itself, and I love strength workouts rooted in Pilates.

It has what has hands down led to the best results in my 20 years (100,000 + hours) of teaching real clients ✨
