The Weigh We Were: SlimPossible

day by day 🗝️

you'll flourish in time

Tonight really humbled me. I tried to be independent and walk to the kitchen without my walker because I’ve been feeling significantly better. I've been moving more, sitting up longer, and driving again. Tonight, however, I fell. Hard.

One thing I wasn’t prepared for... Losing 230+ lbs pounds means I don’t have that “padding” or "cushioning" anymore. The floor actually felt like the floor this time. My knees hit the wood, and they're bone on bone. It hurt in a way I’ve never experienced before. I couldn’t use my knees to get up. The pain was excruciating, so I had to rely on my upper body and core strength to lift myself from the floor back onto the couch. But the takeaway is this -
I could not have done that a year ago. It's the result of an entire year of consistently going to the gym, weekly aqua aerobics, and rebuilding strength when my body felt broken.

The fall hurt, but it also reminded me how far I’ve come. Going to the gym not only improved my strength, but it also improved my survival skills. It helped me regain my independence and, completely changed my life. I honestly can’t wait to get back to it. Progress isn’t always graceful, but it’s real. If I can do it, so can you. 💪🏻😁🥰🫶🏻✨

This is so true. I don't hate my old body. I just love myself enough now to make healthier choices.

The version of you shaped by 2025 deserves some grace and clarity.

Not because you pushed harder or “earned” it, but because carrying that much, for that long, leaves a mark. I know you've felt it.

You notice it when you try to find peace inside a quiet moment, but your mind grows louder instead.

You notice it when rest feels anything but restful.

When even silence comes with a kind of internal tension you can’t always name.

Or when your body feels on edge, even when nothing is technically wrong.

And when the body stays tense, notice how easily it spills outward—how that’s when it becomes easiest to snap at someone who was never responsible for your stress in the first place.

And here’s the part most people miss amidst the noise:

Peace doesn’t come from quieting the mind. It comes when the body finally feels safe enough to stop holding everything together.

That elusive state we call “being present” begins with surrender. Not of the mind but of the body.

It's a doorway into grace and clarity.

"How To Make Peace With Your Mind" is a 120-minute live experience designed to help the body soften first, so the mind no longer has to stay on guard.

We work with a nervous-system-safe approach to presence that doesn’t rely on "controlling” the mind or on forcing calm and calling it "regulation." Instead, we're creating the internal, somatic conditions where peace can actually settle.

A calm body breeds a clear mind.

If this spoke to you, consider this your invitation 🤍

Trying to navigate holiday blues and also mostly maintaining my consistent mindful eating has certainly been tricky this holiday season, but I'm doing my best and sticking in there. I hope everyone reading this has had a wonderful holiday season. 🎄✨

The comedown after a holiday (or any anticipated celebration!) can be tough sometimes, but here are some things that might help make it easier.

the things that are meant for you don’t get lost because you need time. they don’t resent you for being unsure or hesitating. what’s yours never stops looking for you, it always circles back 🌀💕💌🫧🌻

gentle reminder: let celebration be part of the journey, not the reward at the end of it 🍰💕🫧💌🌻
