A post I shared on Insta early July 2023.
While home on vacay I had time to reflect on my current state of health and -care routines.
Y’all know me. I loathe to miss a camp and set my goal to make it 6x each week. I am very purposeful and intentional with this. Occasionally something gets me and I may only hit 5 BUT those weeks are the exception and then the following week I’m right back trying to get in 6. Camp for me is an incredible workout and so much more: community; motivation; fun; an opportunity to show my children that I actively seek to live a healthy lifestyle that includes regular, vigorous exercise; a safe place to push my boundaries and do things I never would have dreamed I could; and on and on. I LOVE to .
Since school has let out and I have had the time, I’ve added walks into my routine. I often tell others that walks are one of the most underrated forms of exercise out there. Walking is a great low-pact exercise that allows one to work the joints and maintain mobility while also providing a quiet time to reflect and relieve all of that stress we tend to carry around throughout the day. I 💗 me a good walk! (Lol but know, if you walk with me you better keep up because I’m not a “stop and smell the roses while commenting on the birds” kind of walker. I push it up and my strides are long. 😉)
I eat well, most of the time. I typically track my macros and choose foods that, more or less, are nutrient dense without all of the extra garbage added in. That being said, I am human and do allow myself to splurge, oh let’s say once a week because let’s face it, what’s the point if you can’t enjoy the more decadent, guilt-filled foods on occasion.
I go to the chiropractor regularly. I go to bed on time and strive for a quality 8hrs of sleep each night. I drink water like it’s my day job. I wash my face and brush my teeth morning and night, and do all of those (that we consider) typical self-care, basic hygiene things.
All of that said, while home away from my normal routines (and out walking coincidentally 🤷♀️) I realized I have been neglecting one of my most amazing tools in my tool belt: my magic machine 🪄 crafted and created by Ria Taute and Robey Taute at
I know I haven’t shared about it in a minute, and tbh, I have let the busy schedule of working a FT and two PT jobs, being a mom and a wife, homemaker, etc distract me from the reality that I have my 🪄 just sitting in its room waiting for me to use it! That day, while walking on vacation, I told myself that as soon as I got home that was it; I was going to set the intention to use it regularly, and so I have!
What is my magic machine? Let me reintroduce you to my EbodyRenew by Madame Et Monsieur neuromuscular electrotherapy machine. It is designed to provide intensive blood circulation, detox, and deep tissue neuromuscular-electrotherapy. It is used worldwide by professional athletes, world renowned entertainers, beauty pageant participants, and normal men and women just like me for a variety of purposes. While most look at it to lose weight, it is in fact an incredible tool to increase one’s overall health, recovery from injuries, and consequently, life.
I’ll share more on this amazing 🪄 machine, as and I like to call it ☺️ later because it really is 😮 with what all it can do in terms of health.
But as for me, and as for now, I love just laying here, enjoying my 45mins all to myself while the machine does all of the work. When time’s up, I feel rejuvenated and refreshed, muscles tightened and toned in a way that a solid workout just doesn’t quite hit.
Tomorrow I plan to use my machine to help rehabilitate a few strains I’ve been feeling lately from all of my heavy exertion at the gym.
Oh, this machine and what it can do is 😍
