I hope you're having a lovely weekend and if you're doing the Sleep Kickstart, this is a quick reminder that today and tomorrow are freestyle days. So revisit any of the movement videos from the past 5 days and notice how it feels the second time around. Also, the full sleep course is here whenever you want to dive in: #😴 Introduction Thank you for participating this week and stay tuned for a fun new ritual coming in July! 😘

Today is our last "formal" day of the kickstart (tomorrow and Sunday, you get to freestyle and revisit any of the movement videos that you liked from previous lessons). Before we slide into the weekend, I'd love to know: If I ran this sleep kickstart again, what would make it even better for you? - 🍵 A daily moment of calm - 🏃‍♀️ Moving my body gently - 📵 Less screen time at night - 🌿 Trusting simple over complicated

So much of our lives is spent reaching, striving, producing, strategizing (especially when you work for yourself). Basically, yang energy. Doing that chronically tends to throw off sleep (it does for me). Last night I ended up doing some impromptu bellydance to shake off the day and an upsetting conversation I'd had. I just knew that I couldn't try to "positive think" my way out of the heaviness of the convo. For me, bellydance is a soft and playful/creative place to rest. Basically the yin/feminine energy to balance the yang/masculine energy of the outer world. We need both for harmony in our health and just life anyway. And it did the trick: I shimmied off the heaviness! 😅 👉 What's one form of movement that helps you soften out of "doing" mode and have the movements in this kickstart helping you to find it? P.S - Years ago my bellydance teacher mentioned that Shakira was one of the very best out there as far as technique. Since my teacher was from Morocco and knows the authentic thing, I paid attention. I guess hips really don't lie!

Quick one today: did you get your movement in yet? Also, did you do it in the morning or evening? For me this morning was a walk and a few minutes qi gong (the spinal mobility and heart opening movements always feel great in the morning, especially when the sun's bright).

It's day 3 y'all! By now you're probably starting to get into the flow of things so I'm curious: what are you enjoying the most as you go through this kickstart: the movement, the tea? Both? Drop your thoughts 👇
