My kids are back in school and we're slowly getting back into the rhythm of the routines that make up the school year. Some of them are the same -- earlier bedtimes, the morning scramble to get to the bus stop on time, checking backpacks for folders and uneaten food after they walk in the door after school. And some are new -- dance classes for my youngest on different days than last year and flag football for my son. It's a chaotic time of year if you have kids. And it can be really easy to feel your own routines slip and slide away as you try to stay on top of all of the things. Daily movement is typically one of those things that can disappear into the chaotic mess of a new school year because there is just SO.MUCH.GOING.ON. And yet, this is a time when you probably need a little stress relief in the form of movement. A break from being pulled in 500 different directions and none of them really benefitting you. If this feels like you and you'd like to get back into the habit of moving your body everyday, I created the DAILY FIVE for you. The Daily 5 is a monthlong program that offers quick daily movement practices with simple habit tips to make the daily movement more doable. Here's how it works: For every day in September, you'll receive a 5-minute movement practice from me. These daily practices are pre-recorded creative yoga flows, bodyweight strength, mobility work, and strength training with hand weights. You'll also receive simple, actionable tips for implementing a daily practice of movement. This program will not only help you get on the mat everyday with more ease and joy, but also with less pressure to get a longer practice in. Here's what one participant said after receiving (and doing) the DAY 1 practice: 2 weeks in, the same participant wrote: I'm sharing these 2 quotes from the same participant because I think there is power in starting and loving it, then stopping because life gets busy or challenging. You in, Reader? Click here to join the Daily 5. And check out my pricing options -- created with all budgets in mind. We begin September 1st but if you sign up sooner, you'll get a few bonus videos to tide you over until then. See you on the mat soon! Naomi Not interested in the Daily 5? No problem.

(not interested in the Daily 5? Scroll down a bit so you can opt-out of these Daily 5 specific promotional emails) Hey Reader, Today I did a 30 minute workout of heavy lifting (back squats), some supplemental weight lifting, and impact training. I'm working with a coach and she's programming all of it for me. I love it. But working out for this amount of time is somewhat new for me. For a long time, I found myself squeezing in 5-10 minute strength training practices because it's all I had the...
Hey Reader, I've been working out hard lately. I started working with a coach who designs a week of fitness programming for me at a time -- and it's been incredible. Working with her has shifted the way I have been moving my body (more on that in a few weeks!) But it hasn't always been this way. In fact for the past 10 years or so, my movement practice has been consistent but brief. Some days I'd manage 30 minutes of movement, but others were closer to 10-15. Some days, I'd squeak out 5...
