Physical Therapy with Anastasia – I was in a tremendous amount of pain. I felt like I wanted to punch a wall, but she works miracles with manual therapy. I felt a ton better afterwards and it lasted through tonight. This evening I did 20 mins on the spinning bike at home.
Walking feels like the easiest way to get a workout in, especially when you really aren’t feelin’ it! Interstitial Cystitis + Hip Bursitis + Swelling that I can’t get rid of + My usual horrid leg pain + Can’t think so much (AKA – Brain Fog) = The Devil reincarnated 5x and mixed altogether — just because it’s fun. That is all. Oh .. But I did get #Just5Minutes in — 45min treadmill walk. Not super fast, but enough and I love my IntelliSkin sports bras! IntelliSkin is supposed to mimic taping or Kt tape, and help provide a gentle reminder to keep proper alignment. I’m not a huge fan of bracing and braces typically don’t work well for me, so have several years of encouragement, I broke down and bought both a few IntelliSkin & AlignMed products to try.
Today’s practice – it was hot! Hot yoga class at Down Dog Yoga in Bethesda, MD 1.5 hr class
Today’s practice – Yoga and Alignment with James Foulkes at The Mindfulness Center I’ve been so sore lately and very achy with a ton of muscle spasms. So, I took it easy today and did an Alignment Yoga class, bought way too much food at Puree, and then crashed when I got home.

We have 1 more week of summer before my babies go back to school. I promised to take them to All Fired Up, a paint your own pottery place, at some point this summer. And since we haven’t been and now have very little time to make sure we go, I decided to take them today and get a yoga class in as well. The kids went to All Fired Up, and I went to The Mindfulness Center (TMC) for Dave’s 12pm yoga class.
Couldn’t leave my Little Bub out! AcroYoga with my baby boy before we started the 9hr drive home from vacation last week. I was smiling and laughing be because of this little guy rocks. He battles sensory processing issues, pretty severe anxiety, chronic fatigue – all associated with #hypermobility. However, there is nothing this kid will not do if he sets his mind to it. He amazes me every day, and I’m so proud to be his Mama. Originally posted on Instagram – https://instagram.com/p/BJoPTGNApDc/
AcroYoga with my baby girl (and my little Bub) before we started the 9hr drive home after a week of vacation. We have been practicing SUP-yoga all week, and nailed all poses, but fatigue and end-of-vacation-week-attitudes got the best of us yesterday. So, we practiced for a few minutes on the lakefront beach we got in the car. And then we decided that we are so good that we need to teach a child/parent AcroYoga class. We even had a videographer – video recording of our class coming soon! 😜
