When you post a picture, do you have a habit of checking back regularly to see how many likes or comments you’ve received?

If so, it’s likely that you’re gaining a sense of validation from using social media.

While there’s no issue with sharing pieces of your life with your peers and community, things can get out of hand if you attach your worth to the number of likes you receive on an image that you post.

If you’re feeling unlike your usual self when it comes to your s*x life, it’s likely due to stress. Our parasympathetic nervous system controls our sensuality and libido. When something is off in that system (like we’re dealing with underlying chronic stress), our s*x life can suffer as a result.

If you have questions and want to dive deeper into why your passions seem to have disappeared, know that there’s nothing “wrong” or “broken” about you. You just need to take a little more time to work through your stress.

Have you been avoiding trying a new yoga pose because you don’t want to mess it up? Get out of your head and remember how to play!

Children don’t feel self-conscious about tumbling around, they just go for it, because it’s fun! Remember, if you don’t try, you’ll never learn.

So get comfortable with falling out of a pose then getting right back into it. Learn to laugh at yourself if you do something silly.

If you fall, trip, or tumble, so what? At least you tried!

Commit to moving more starting today, even if it’s just a 10 minute walk around your block. Walking is a great, low-impact form of exercise that boosts your mood and supports cardiovascular well-being. Your body will thank you for it!
