Happy Monday! It's the first week of Spring. The season of new beginnings. I don't know about you but I can feel myself moving into the next season of growth and change and know I have some work to do. I think I am ready now...how about you? What do ... 

This past weekend I led a "GIRL ON FIRE" Yoga flow to honor Women's History Month. I wanted to share the playlist with everyone. Hope you enjoy the mix of "GIRL POWER" anthems on your next walk, yoga session or just plain singing out oud in the car! ... 

While most people would say that I am a super confident person, I don't think I have always lead with confidence. There was a time that I would NEVER wear a 2 piece swim suit. Not only would I never wear one, but I would also never take a picture of ... 

Personally, I'm not ready for the resolution talk for next (week) year... but I DID spend some time reflecting today. With all that's going on, I'm feeling the weight of this year coming to an end and realizing how much we've really gone though. I've... 

Grab a pen and some post its and join me in front of your mirror. Let's work on giving those negative thoughts the boot! I would love for you to drop in the comments all of the fabulous things you said to yourself and how you felt after the practice!... 

Hello AthletaWell Squad- I would love to hear from you. There are three questions in my mind around Holidays, Mental/Physical routine, and Values. The holidays stress me out a little but I find ways to stay physically and mentally balanced through sh... 

It was this time 4 years ago, at the busiest point in my full-time fitness and yoga teaching career, that my body said “ENOUGH.” I was demo-ing a movement during my 5th class of the day and felt a dull pain that had been lingering in my low back sudd... 

I can use this reminder on the daily. If there's resistance to getting through a task or through life, find a companion, be authentic, and get through it together. This is a text from a client. Accountability and compassion are everything. #AthletaWe... 

Happy November, AthletaWell Fam! I always find the beginning of each month to be a good reminder to pause, check-in with myself, and get clear on what I want to cultivate and step into this month. Over the last couple weeks I've been dealing with som... 

Often we get so focused on the end result we undervalue the process. Forgetting to slow it down, take in one day, one moment at a time. It's not always easy to be fully present but when we are we can see that is where the lessons are. It's important ... 

Good morning team ☀️ Yesterday a client expressed to me the ebbs and flows of her relationship and said "I spun out of control because I felt like I couldn't control it." At any given moment we are driven to have control over the chaos. There's one t... 

Several times a week I take a bike ride in prospect park in Brooklyn. There is a MAJOR hill that is difficult for almost everyone going up it whether walking, riding or running. This morning as I was getting up the hill this guy who was running proba... 

My daughters are in their early 20s and are out of the house again (covid brought them back ). Even though they are leaving, I'm really not sad about it; I'm actually really happy. They are doing great things and I couldn't be prouder. I'm also more... 

I've spent a lot of my life worrying about being too big or "too much." From growing up in the ballet world and constantly receiving messaging about not letting my body get too bulky, to being told I'm "loud and intense" when I'd speak up about uncom... 

What's up team. Naming your feelings can be a nice way to reflect and release energy. Go ahead and look through the list of Feelings and Body Sensations and name the ones you had today. Feel free to leave it in the comments! (Source: Hoffman Institut... 

Hi Everyone!Today starts weeks 2 of the Body & Self love challenge and this week we are focusing on setting boundaries. If there is one way to show yourself respect it is to set boundaries with those around you. While it isn't always easy to say no e... 

It's unfortunate that we live in a society that promotes shame around size, celebrates smallness instead of fullness, has created so much bias around what we think able bodies look like, and pushed movement as a form of punishment for what you eat in... 

Remember when Leo was running around some beach, with his tummy out and everyone was like “omg! He’s so hot! Dad bod in full effect” (though, he’s a consummate single). Why, may I ask, is the same consideration not made for women? Why is it that duri... 

There's been such a pleasant evolution of body positivity over the last 10 years and I am HERE for it. But, as a physical therapist, I see people when they're injured and their body isn't exactly doing what it normally can do, which sometimes trigger... 

My husband asked me to wake up extra early this morning to load packages in his car for work. I had a headache and knew I needed to sleep in instead. I was so afraid to disappoint him. I told him I was going to sleep in instead, and he didn't mind at... 

Here we are in the height of summer and here in NYC the weather has been like we are living in a jungle. It couldn't be more hot and humid. Even with this crazy heat I still see and hear women saying that they "can't" show there arms because of whate...
