Sometimes the best way to get kids involved (or at least not bothering you) while you're trying to stretch, is by keeping it fun! 🐕 So, today's assignment is to do a themed stretching session all about animals! Pretending to be animals can be REALLY fun! I put a yoga sequence in the post at the bottom for you to follow along to a flow all about animals! (or you can make your own fun with animal stretches) ⭐ BONUS: do some bear breaths before getting started! When we make deep guttural sounds, it tells the body to relax! One of the fun ways to do this is by bear breathing. Everyone takes a deep breath in, and then you make a deep guttural growl like a bear while releasing the breath. 👇 Once you've completed today's assignment, copy & paste the template below into your own post: Title: Day 2 Did you follow the yoga sequence of make your own animal stretches? How did you feel before and after the flow? Did you do the bear breathing? How did you feel before and after? What part of today's exercise would you like to incorporate into regular life? *add a video or picture of you (or your kids) pretending to be an animal

Super silly dance party! For the version with music, click here 👇🏻https://www.instagram.com/stories/healthylivingwitherika/3818768403657740011?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igsh=cGNvZThiNXZ4N2E3 How did you feel before your dance party? annoyed and sensory overload How did you feel afterwards? Fun, more energy In what ways did it reset the tone and energy for the day? Just took my kiddo upstairs to reset our energy from the moodiness of those downstairs.

I’ll let you decide! So today at church I was picking up my kiddo from Sunday school and one of the moms had on a hat with the name of a local doula agency on it. We chatted for a bit & I told her I’m a post Partum doula. Turns out she’s the OWNER of the agency! 😮 She asked for my phone number and said they are SO busy and could use another postpartum doula to contract out to! Then she sent me the “application” to work with them. And although, it would be a subcontract gig on their pay scale, I’m overjoyed at this connection! What’s something positive or unexpected that has happened in your business recently?

Okay… the weather, well this polar vortex snowstorm that’s landing on half the country in the next couple days, seems to be all that anyone is talking about lately! So I’m curious?! What part of the US do you live in and what are the weather predictions for where you live? Let’s see who’s predicted to get it the worst! Mine is in the comments 👇🏻

I need a good 5 day health challenge to get me moving! So, i'm thinking of doing a 5 day movement challenge (small kid, busy schedule, and anti-athlete approved). I wasn't going to make it a group challenge but would something like that be helpful?
