2026: Press Play, Not Fast-Forward

The new year often brings pressure to do more and move faster. This January, pause. Notice what you’re carrying and what your body needs. Reorientation invites presence over performance and care over urgency. Even small moments of stillness support rest and clarity. If you’re already tired, you’re not behind—you’re human. Choose a rhythm that sustains you, not one that exhausts you. Visit the blog for the full newsletter at https://www.drericaandyou.com/blog

Over the past few months, we’ve explored how physical wellness goes beyond the body—it reflects our emotional, mental, and relational health. Movement is medicine. It rebuilds trust, reconnects us with our emotions, and restores strength through care. In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, remember: healing begins when safety returns to the body—when movement becomes permission, not punishment. To subscribe click the link bio

Catch Your Breath: A Body Reset for Busy Lives

Ever feel like you’re always chasing what’s next, but never catching your breath? Life moves fast, and in all the doing, we forget to feel. Movement isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing what matters. This month, reset with intention: stretch, breathe, walk with purpose. Your body is asking for care, not just completion. One mindful step at a time. 💛

How often do you look in the mirror—and what do you really see? A smile… or a sigh?

Mirrors should reflect more than judgment. What if yours became a place of acceptance instead of critique?

You don’t have to love every inch every day—but you can show your body kindness.

✨ Mirror affirmation: I see you. I’m trying to be kinder to you. You are worthy of care.

Let’s rewrite the mirror story. 🧡

🌬️ As daylight saving time nears and the chill sets in, we feel the impact of shorter days. The reduced sunlight can affect mood, energy, and motivation, often leading to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). But there’s hope! In this issue, we share self-compassion tools like mindfulness, gentle movement, and light therapy to help ease the transition. Join us in embracing this season of change with warmth, care, and self-kindness!
