Happy Wednesday and it’s time for Mr. Bates and a little wisdom from him. The cold weather has hit and so Mr. Bates has enjoyed much more activity and has been moving more and playing harder. In fact his poor sister is just trying to keep up with him. The more intense play has both Mr. Bates and his sister sleeping more soundly and they are not as restless as they usually are during the night. Sound like maybe there is a connection don’t you think? Movement and exercise isn’t just for your body but it also is for your mind. Pilates is a great example of moving and connecting the mind to everything that is going on. When we move and are learning new things it takes energy. It feels good and stress and anxiety can leave the body and mind. Then just like Mr. Bates you shall sleep soundly and heavily. #wapilates #mrbates #mrbatesthedog #bordercollie #roughcollie #josephpilates #houstonpilates #workoutmotivation #mindtobody #sleeplikeababy #exerciseforthemind #silverstreetstudios #pilateshouston #contrologia #movementismedicine

I want to wake up and be more thankful I'm not where i used to be. Instead I wake up being disappointed I'm not where I want to be or should be. As the girl on the left I told myself so many times I would be happy to be the girl on the right. Yet, here I am still saying not good enough! Wanting to push further is not a bad thing but not even being content with how far ive come is idiotic. Fuck that noise! I want to strive to be more body positive! No one is going to love me the way I can love myself so what am i waiting for. I need my mind to be as healthy as my body or this is for nothing. They should go hand in hand. Here's to being proud and not ashamed. #exerciseforthemind #progressnotperfection #beforeandafter #weightloss #naturalweightloss #tonyfromgoahead #mindovermatter #morphingmonday #stopcomparing
