Energy check time ⏱️Are you alert or are you actually wired?

As someone who can run a loooong time on empty, I have to check in with my energy often. I ask, “Am I actually alert and ready to be productive right now? Or am I going off fumes and just totally wired?”

And if the answer is wired, I have been trying to really honor rest and lean into my no’s.

Here are 3 of my fave ways to check if I’m ready to plow ahead or if I need some downtime👍🏻☑️

✅ Check your peripheral vision: When we are under stress, we lose the ability to see wide range.

We get tunnel vision, literally and metaphorically, and can’t see the bigger picture.

✅ Eyes wide shut: This is my number one tool to tell if I’m sleepwalking or actually participating in the human race.

I can have my eyes open and interact with people and get a whole bunch of stuff done, but if the second I close my eyes, they resist being shut and start darting around- I’m prob wired.

✅ Notice your spine: Speaking of sleepwalking, we also tend to sleep-sit and sleep-stand.

A lot of us create a false sense of alertness by puffing our ribs forward, but this can also be adrenalizing.

Out for a walk with the kiddos today and after I did one of my typical huge exaggerated sighs, I noticed my 2yo was doing the same from the bottom of the stroller.

I laughed and crouched down to see him, assuming he was just mimicking me, but when I got to eye level I noticed the sweetest thing.

He wasn’t mocking or copying me. He was FULLY immersed in his deep breathing.

This was such a proud mother moment. I’m always anxious about all the bad habits or behaviors of mine they may inherit.

I forget we inherit the good too.

If my kids only learn two things from me in this lifetime, let it be love and breath.🙏🏼

Who would’ve thought 🤷🏻‍♀️🙆🏻‍♀️ or maybe it all makes sense in the bigger picture

Either way I am LOVING helping moms connect to their core and pelvic floor (this is the same thing but for now I will keep talking about them like this while society catches up) and be able to find strength and space in their bodies they’ve never experienced before, even before kids!!!!

If you’re in the Bay Area and you want to explore Mindful movement for moms come join me at @mettamamamarin Tues 7/23, 930a for a pop up of my new pelvic floor focused fitness class Cardio Core Sculpt.

COMMENT CORE BELOW FOR LINK TO SIGN UP.

I’ve been really hard on myself lately (“lately”, ha! who are we kidding…)

I’ve been telling myself that I’m longer a “real” writer since I don’t post on Substack or publish articles as regularly.

How can I claim to be an “author” when I’m nowhere near starting a second book?

It’s not that I haven’t been writing.

I’m working on something special for moms of young kids, and it requires a lot of introspection, brainstorming, and copy. So much copy….

Potential unpopular opinion🚨 I’m a better mom

Potential unpopular opinion🚨 I’m a better mom the less time I spend with my kids

I need time by myself to be able to show up fully for my children. It’s a non-negotiable for my mental health.

But what I’ve realized over the years is that the act of self-care is not in the activity I choose to do during that “me-time”, it’s my ability to take it unapologetically or to be apologetic but still do it anyway.

The self-care is the boundary of saying, “I love you, but I have to choose myself first right now so that I can give you everything you need later.”

COMMENT Me below to have a micro-breathwork practice dropped in your inbox ASAP. We don’t need hours away from our kids to recharge. It’s amazing what 3 min can do!!!!

…but also give me those uninterrupted hours too plz 🤣

Mama and Dada’s 3rd night out in 5 yes😱 😱😱

I do not recommend letting that much time go between dates! Though if it’s challenging to get coverage we get it….

But man, did we need this = Just to be Ben and Sarah and not just Dada and Mama

Q4U🤷🏻‍♀️ for the parents with partners: How do you handle date night ? Do you have them regularly or are they rare?

I f-ed up…

I missed a beautiful window where I could’ve been resting and refueling and wasted it trying to get my kids to go outside.

All they wanted to do was to stay inside and play their RESPECTIVE GAMES (yup that is correct, solo quiet play) and I had this big idea we’d all be outside playing together (which usually means more intensive parenting from me) and I clung to it, because that was MY VISION.

Instead of leaning into the quiet space and embracing it, I spent the 30min negotiating with each of them 🤦🏻‍♀️

And theb right when I realized “omg I should just chill and enjoy this time!!!!” and sat on the couch to chill, they wanted to go outside so I could watch them play.

Don’t miss these moments! Had I leaned into the natural break I would be 100x more present right now but I missed my opportunity.

Don’t miss yours.

Moms headed to Paris now have one less thing to worry about as they compete: Being away from their babies. @allysonfelix, a mother of two and the most decorated track and field athlete in history, has teamed up with Pampers to create the first-ever nursery in the Athletes Village. The nursery will offer a space to help athletes bond, nurse, and spend time with their babies amid grueling schedules. Inside, it’s stocked with supplies like diapers and wipes, spaces to play together, and a private breastfeeding area.

Felix, who now sits on the International Olympic Committee’s Athletes’ Commission, said the launch of the nursery represents “a shift in the culture” around female athletes. “I think it really tells women that you can choose motherhood, and also be at the top of your game and not have to miss a beat,” she said. For more on the new Olympic nursery breaking ground in Paris, head to the link in our bio.

Understanding where I’m at in my cycle has helpe

Understanding where I’m at in my cycle has helped me have soooo much compassion for my changing moods, body and attitudes!!!

Usually when I’m feeling all nego Nancy and wanting to 🖕🏻 the world I look at the calendar and I’m like ohhhhhh it’s the end of my #lutealphase duhhhh

If you’re still in your fertile years, I invite you to pay attention to how you change week to week. Notice how much we fluctuate and rather than fighting against it, see if you can flow with it!

How much energy could we save if we let our bodies lead???

But what is “THIS”?… This whole “18 summe

But what is “THIS”?…

This whole “18 summers bull💩”? Nope!

This cuteness of the two kids playing quietly? Nope!

The “THIS” that so MANY of us moms tend to miss out on are the quiet moments where we GET TO JUST BE.🙏🏼

We go from one stressor to the next and even when there’s pauses (which there always are btw, because that’s how energy works! It’s science- what goes up, must come down), we totally miss out on the break; because we’re either still caught up in what just happened or stressing about what will.

Learn to lean into the pauses.

Breathe into the quiet moments.

Put down the responsibility backpack, even if it’s just for a few moments, and when the intensity builds back up again (which it will because that’s how energy works!), you will have replenished a bit to handle it.

Try it and lmk how it goes.

Studies show that even just 1 minute of quietude can have a lasting impact on your mental health !!!!

Moms, we all have ONE minute and as we know, a happy and healthy mom is the key to happy and healthy kids.
