Beloved, good morning!🤍 How is everyone doing this week? We’ve been working on our courses for you all & one that we felt called to provide was on Prayers & Daily Confessionals🙏🏽 They will be centered around work, self love, workouts, & family. & they will be completely free to access for anyone in the community no matter what tier you are. We hope you all utilize the course whenever you need. We love you family & can’t wait to show you more!

You were made on purpose, for a purpose. Before you ever stepped foot in a gym, before you ever hit a goal weight or a PR, you were already worthy. Your value was never tied to your performance. So many of us start a fitness journey from a place of punishment — trying to fix something we think is broken. But what if we flipped that? What if every workout was an act of gratitude instead of shame? What if you moved your body because it’s a gift, not a burden? That shift in identity changes everything. You stop trying to earn your worth and start stewarding what you’ve already been given 💛 Move from a place of love. Not guilt. Not fear. Love.

Read the whole chapter in several versions HERE 1 Corinthians 12 Living Bible 12 And now, brothers, I want to write about the special abilities the Holy Spirit gives to each of you, for I don’t want any misunderstanding about them. 2 You will remember that before you became Christians you went around from one idol to another, not one of which could speak a single word. 3 But now you are meeting people who claim to speak messages from the Spirit of God. How can you know whether they are really inspired by God or whether they are fakes? Here is the test: no one speaking by the power of the Spirit of God can curse Jesus, and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” and really mean it, unless the Holy Spirit is helping him. 4 Now God gives us many kinds of special abilities, but it is the same Holy Spirit who is the source of them all. 5 There are different kinds of service to God, but it is the same Lord we are serving. 6 There are many ways in which God works in our lives, but it is the same God who does the work in and through all of us who are his. 7 The Holy Spirit displays God’s power through each of us as a means of helping the entire church. 8 To one person the Spirit gives the ability to give wise advice; someone else may be especially good at studying and teaching, and this is his gift from the same Spirit. 9 He gives special faith to another, and to someone else the power to heal the sick. 10 He gives power for doing miracles to some, and to others power to prophesy and preach. He gives someone else the power to know whether evil spirits are speaking through those who claim to be giving God’s messages—or whether it is really the Spirit of God who is speaking. Still another person is able to speak in languages he never learned; and others, who do not know the language either, are given power to understand what he is saying. 11 It is the same and only Holy Spirit who gives all these gifts and powers, deciding which each one of us should have.

I used to dance when I was younger and I remember always stretching before my dance classes but I never thought to ask why. It was just what we did. But now as a coach I understand the importance of it💡 I want you to think about this in 2 ways. There’s static stretching and there’s dynamic stretching or functional stretching by another name. You want to use dynamic or functional stretching as a warmup before your workout. These movements should give you some joint prep, increase blood flow, and prep your body to put in effort during the workout. This is also a good time to practice checking in with yourself. What needs more activation or extra attention? Take that moment to get yourself ready. Once you’re done with your dynamic stretching get to work🔥 Static stretching is the slow and still stretching that most of us think of when we hear stretching. It’s what I would do before dance classes actually. These movements are calculated and are meant to be held for seconds/minutes at a time. This can aid in recovery and resetting after the workout. This is also a good time to reflect on the session. What went well or how did you surrender today? Do you stretch before or after your workout? Vote below💪🏽 Remember take time to care for the body Jesus went to the grave for✝️ Your body is a temple. Train like it.
