When adaptation becomes survival
It can feel creative, wise, and freeing to find a different way of doing things. A way that works with your body instead of against it. A way that helps you keep going, keep moving, keep living.
And then there are times when adaptation does not feel inspiring at all.

New Year, Same You (and that’s the whole point)
Hello lovely Mob and suporters, and Happy New Year. If January feels a bit loud or heavy, you’re not alone. There’s so much pressure flying around to change ourselves, improve ourselves, push harder. We’re not doing that here. Mobilates is a place to come exactly as you are, wobbly, tired, low-spoon, hopeful, all of it. This year (and every year) we’re choosing nurturing, body love, gentle safe movement, and a community that reminds you you’re already enough.

We Know Our Bodies - and We Deserve to Be Heard
Our wonderful Leanne recently shared a post, which I think will resonate with too many of us. She asked us to record short videos about times we’d been dismissed or mistreated by medical professionals. The response was overwhelming, because, sadly, so many of us have a story, usually multiple stories.

The frustrations of being ill, but there are benefits...
Those with the least energy will push themselves to the very edge to support others. And those who are the poorliest, who barely have reserves of their own, are often the ones trying to make a difference in the world.

It Wasn’t Just a Tick Bite 😱
So, can you believe it? I’ve got Lyme Disease. On top of everything else I’m already managing with hormones and endometriosis, this feels like a cruel extra. I don’t feel that great to be honest.
