THERAPY. โฃ

Movement is my THERAPY.
โฃ
When I fell in love with dance, I had no idea that it would quickly become the greatest thing I could do for myself and my body. โฃ

I lacked confidence. โฃ
I was plagued by food and an eating disorder. โฃ
But it quickly became the one outlet for my anxiety and self hatred. โฃ
It brought me joy and community during a time when I felt very much alone. โฃ
โฃ
When I fell in love with group fitness it gave me direction during a time when I felt lost. โฃ

I struggled with body image, speaking up for myself, โฃ
It taught me confidence. โฃ
I found my passion. โฃ
โฃ
When I fell in love with strength training it taught me to appreciate my body for what it could do instead of how it looked. โฃ

It taught me strength. โฃ
It helped me fight depression and anxiety. โฃ
It became the outlet that saved me. โฃ

It can be really easy to look at someone and assume they NEVER struggle with body image.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
But Iโ€™d like to argue that almost everyone from time to time has a feeling of wanting to look differently. โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
And Iโ€™ll be totally honest in saying it is likely something I will FORVER battle. โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
It would be really easy for me to tell you that Iโ€™ve completely healed my relationship with food and my body. โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
Announce that Iโ€™ve finally found the confidence Iโ€™ve always wanted and you can too. โฃโฃ
But hereโ€™s the thing… โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
Life is messy. โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
I will always be working on becoming a better version of myself. โฃโฃ
Of seeing my worth. โฃโฃ
Of battling body image. โฃโฃ
Of tackling anxiety. โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
And thatโ€™s okay. Because it’s forever improving.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
Itโ€™s not about never having the thoughts again. Itโ€™s all about hot you choose to handle them when they come. โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
Life will never be perfect. โฃโฃ
Choose to show up real. โฃโฃ
Choose to show up as you.ย ๐Ÿ’›โฃโฃ

I get asked this question at least once a week and I am always 100% honest in saying a big fat NOPE. โฃ
โฃ
I do CrossFit too. I used to feel like I had to hide that, or pretend like I only did 21 Day Challenges at home, but hereโ€™s the deal; I am a HUGE believer of finding what works for YOU and running with it. โฃ
โฃ
For some thatโ€™s the gym, others itโ€™s at home workouts, for everyone it REQUIRES support & community to stick with it. โฃ
โฃ
CrossFit has become my therapy. โฃ
Teaching group fitness classes is part of my job. โฃ
Working out at home has been another added way to improve my results. โฃ
โฃ
And hereโ€™s a really cool fact, when I started incorporating more of the at-home workouts I get my clients set up with, I started seeing huge changes in my body AND my fitness started to improve. โฃ
โฃ
Itโ€™s something I donโ€™t think I share enough and want to be genuinely honest about. โฃ

Something about moving had me terrified about maintaining my progress. โฃ
โฃ
In the past, Iโ€™ve let moving get me completely off track with my fitness journey. โฃ
โฃ
Couple that with the end of our 100 day program, a change in my gym schedule, and I knew it could easily be a recipe for disaster. โฃ
