You know when you jump intosomething probably a little
too quickly and you know itbecause your body is like, Hey,
this is a little too fast forme, and you start to feel a
little like under the weather,you know what you're doing
is good for you, so you justkeep continuing with it, still
(00:21):
giving your body what it needs.
Hydration, lots of tea, whichis what I've been doing.
Maybe a hot steamy shower.
Resting and it kind ofjust slowly goes away.
Well, I have been reallygetting back into what we are
focusing on for week number10 in the self-love, 100, 100
(00:44):
days of loving yourself more.
And my body is kind of like, Heygirl, we're not used to this.
What, what, where isthis all coming from?
All of a sudden?
I think I might have sortof kind of cold turkeyed
it maybe a little too hard.
(01:07):
Week 10 is all about moving yourbody and I have been doing a
lot of moving my body becausefor the past couple of weeks.
I really haven't beenin the best head space,
to be honest with you.
A lot has been going on, Alot of things have happened
post-event depression is whatwe like to call it over here
(01:30):
and getting back into theswing of things, even getting
back into the self love 100has been kind of difficult,
and we're gonna go throughthose times and those chapters
and that is totally okay.
The goal is not necessarily to.
Keep up with everythingevery single day.
And I just think of likeyelling at yourself.
(01:55):
Get up, do what you gotta do.
You're a failure.
You can't even do it.
You're not good enough.
Absolutely not.
Do not talk toyourself like that.
Do not talk to myfriend like that.
That is not okay, and thatis not how we are talking to
ourselves in the self-love100 as we know already.
We are kind to our bodies.
(02:16):
To our minds and to our hearts,and to our souls, to ourselves,
kind, kindness above all.
And if we're fallingout of routine, get back
to it little by little.
I hope that week nine wasinspiring for you, that you
(02:37):
took it easy on yourself,that you took something
that maybe you aren't.
Getting right or that isn'tclicking or that you just
need a little bit more of thatpush because you know that
this thing is good for youbecause you know that this
part of your routine just helpsyou thrive every single day.
(02:58):
So I hope whatever that wasfor you for week nine, that
you are feeling so much betterabout it as we go into week 10.
Welcome back to theSelf-Love Archives podcast.
I am your host, JuliaSalvia, also known as your
(03:19):
self-love bestie, and I'mreally being your bestie
this week because we are nottalking down to ourselves.
And let me say it again.
You are not talkingdown to yourself.
You are not beingmean to my friend.
This week is all aboutmoving your body.
I know this can be somethingthat seems so, honestly,
(03:44):
PTSD, this could seem sounal aligning so masculine.
So just like, yeah, Idon't really wanna do that.
That's why instead of sayingwork out every single day,
because that's not what this is.
We say move your bodybecause I'm not trying
(04:05):
to push you to work out.
I am trying to push you, andI want you to try to push
yourself to move your body.
That means whatever it meansfor you on so many different
levels, so many differentspectrums, so many different
environments, so many differentactivities that you can do under
(04:27):
the scope of move your body.
Because when we thinkabout working out, we
really only think oflike one thing, the gym.
Maybe like lifting a weight,going to some workout class
that really doesn't tickleyour fancy, no moving your body
because it's more importantthat we move our bodies,
(04:49):
especially in ways that welove than it is for us to work
out in this sort of way that.
We've been taughtgrowing up, this is what
we're supposed to do.
We're supposed togo to this gym.
We're supposed totake this workout.
We're supposed to takethis workout class.
We're supposed to do this.
(05:09):
We're just supposed to moveour bodies in the ways that
we deserve, in the ways thatwe love, in the ways that
we enjoy moving our bodies.
When it comes to the selfloved 100 challenge, 100 days
of loving yourself more, I'mreally specific about how we
(05:31):
use certain terminology in thischallenge, in this journey,
because this is your journeyand there are certain things
that don't really matter.
When we're just trying to loveourselves more and love our
bodies more, and love our, ourbrains more, and our hearts
more, and our soul more likeyou shouldn't be concerned
(05:52):
with working out like mostchallenges have in them, right?
Work out.
Work out this amount oftime, do this, do that.
I just want you to be concernedwith how you move your body.
Go on a diet, go on some sortof diet, do this, eat that.
I just want you to be concernedwith how you're fueling and
(06:13):
nourishing your body in theways that you know how to
do this.
Do that.
Go meditate.
Go go for a walk.
Do that.
I'm not concerned with howyou spend time by yourself.
I just want you to spendtime with yourself.
You see what I'm saying?
(06:34):
You see what I'm saying?
So when it comes to week10 in moving our body.
I really want you totake that exactly as
it is moving your body.
That could mean so many things.
I could come up with a list ofhundreds of different ways you
can move your body, but I'llstart with these five dancing,
(06:56):
stretching, going on a walk,maybe going on a bike ride,
or playing any sort of sport.
And if you're like me andyou do enjoy working out.
But if you don't, and that'snot how you find joy in
moving your body, don't move.
(07:17):
By all means, do notmove your body like that.
Go on a walk.
Go on a run.
Go play a little tennis, pick upthe basketball that you haven't
touched in a while, maybe tryout a new type of class that
you've been wanting to try.
I think I took a classonce with the fabric that
(07:38):
hangs from the ceiling.
I don't know what that'scalled, but it has like
a really cool name to it.
I tried that once.
It was embarrassingly.
Joyful, like it was one of thosethings that I had so much fun
moving my body in that way.
And if someone askedme to go do it again, I
would 100% do it again.
(07:58):
But it wasn't my way ofconsistently moving my body.
And that's what I wantyou to find for you.
I want you to find consistentways to move your body, but I
also want you to try differentthings because you're not
gonna know if you actuallyenjoy them unless you try them.
So here's the thing.
(08:19):
We know that moving ourbody is good for us.
We know that when we are movingour bodies, we are actually
giving our bodies the abilityto function properly just
as everything else, rest,nourishment, hydration, that
altogether is working to provideour bodies with a long life when
(08:43):
we move our body in any way.
We are allowing our bodyto circulate for the blood
to circulate throughoutour bodies in the ways
that it's supposed to.
We are not supposed tobe sedentary people.
We are not supposed to sit allday at a desk or on a couch.
We are supposed tomove our bodies.
(09:03):
There are so many things thatmoving our bodies can do for
our bodies, but also for thelongevity of the life that we
are living here on this earth.
I want you to find joy inmovement, however that looks
for you, and I want you tofind something that you can
do on a consistent basisthat helps move your body.
(09:25):
I'm not talking aboutspending two hours of
movement every single day.
I'm talking about startingsomewhere and consistently
building on that.
So if your movement thisweek looks like stretching
for 10 minutes a day.
That's amazing.
That is wonderful.
(09:48):
And then you throw inmaybe a wok, maybe one
of your friends asked youto go dancing with them.
Maybe you did go try outthat class where you're
hanging from a piece offabric from the ceiling.
I really gotta figure outwhat the name of that is.
Like aerial something.
(10:08):
Either way.
Maybe you are using thistime to actually spend
more time with yourself.
Finding a local classthat you can take that
really excites you.
That's really different.
Trying out the Pilates,place down the street,
or yoga on the beach.
Find something thatyou truly, truly enjoy.
(10:32):
Find something that you canbe consistent with weekly.
And the number one thing is.
Do not forget to allowyour body to rest as well.
I know that we can kind of goon one extreme or the other
where we are very minimallymoving our bodies, or we
are really taking our bodiesto the max level possible
(10:54):
and stressing our physicalbodies out so much that we
forget, Hey, you need to rest.
So make sure that thereis some kind of balance
in there for you.
Like right now I'm feelinga little under the weather.
Nothing like contagious oranything like that, just
like a little congested andnoticing that my body needs
(11:16):
maybe a little bit more restthis week when we can be in
tune with that according towhat we're doing overall.
But maybe that.
We've moved our body a littletoo much or worked out our body
a little too much this week,it's okay to take a step back.
You not working out today ornot moving your body today
(11:37):
is totally okay 'cause yourbody still does need rest.
But the goal is, as italways is, is to find
balance in between themovement and the rest.
So for week number 10, I wantyou to find something that you
can be consistent with somethingthat allows movement into your
life, whether that's 10 or 20minutes or maybe 45 minutes a
(12:02):
day, I want you to try somethingnew or plan something, a new
way to move your body thatmaybe you haven't tried before.
And the third and finalthing that I want you to
do for week 10 is I wantyou to make sure that you
are balancing your rest.
With your movementand that's it.
(12:22):
For week number 10of the Self-Love 100.
Please, please, pleaselet me know how you moved
your body this week.
Come back, tell me whatyou signed up for, what
you are going to tryfor the very first time.
Um, if anyone goes rollerskatingor to one of those bungee like
(12:42):
trampoline, like mini trampolineworkout classes, I need to
know, I need to hear about it.
Maybe you did boxing.
I can, I can throwa couple hands.
Let me know what you tried outthis week, and I will see you
back here for week number 11.
(13:03):
Bye.
You know when you jump intosomething probably a little
too quickly and you know itbecause your body is like, Hey,
this is a little too fast forme, and you start to feel a
little like under the weather,you know what you're doing
is good for you, so you justkeep continuing with it, still
(00:21):
giving your body what it needs.
Hydration, lots of tea, whichis what I've been doing.
Maybe a hot steamy shower.
Resting and it kind ofjust slowly goes away.
Well, I have been reallygetting back into what we are
focusing on for week number10 in the self-love, 100, 100
(00:44):
days of loving yourself more.
And my body is kind of like, Heygirl, we're not used to this.
What, what, where isthis all coming from?
All of a sudden?
I think I might have sortof kind of cold turkeyed
it maybe a little too hard.
(01:07):
Week 10 is all about moving yourbody and I have been doing a
lot of moving my body becausefor the past couple of weeks.
I really haven't beenin the best head space,
to be honest with you.
A lot has been going on, Alot of things have happened

and we're gonna go throughthose times and those chapters
and that is totally okay.
The goal is not necessarily to.
Keep up with everythingevery single day.
And I just think of likeyelling at yourself.
(01:55):
Get up, do what you gotta do.
You're a failure.
You can't even do it.
You're not good enough.
Absolutely not.
Do not talk toyourself like that.
Do not talk to myfriend like that.
That is not okay, and thatis not how we are talking to
ourselves in the self-love100 as we know already.
We are kind to our bodies.
(02:16):
To our minds and to our hearts,and to our souls, to ourselves,
kind, kindness above all.
And if we're fallingout of routine, get back
to it little by little.
I hope that week nine wasinspiring for you, that you
(02:37):
took it easy on yourself,that you took something
that maybe you aren't.
Getting right or that isn'tclicking or that you just

(02:58):
So I hope whatever that wasfor you for week nine, that
you are feeling so much betterabout it as we go into week 10.
