Flow Into Your Happy Space – Pilates With Marilyn

Spread the love

Welcome back to Pilates With Marilyn

My name is Marilyn Harder, pilates instructor, and pilates master trainer.

This week in episode 4 we will combine an awesome mobilizing flow from shoulders, hips, and spine with the concept of physical fitness as the prerequisite for happiness. Our thought and body image topic for this week is inspired by Joesph Pilates himself. Joseph Pilates was big into the trifecta of mind, body, and soul. He believed that everyone is the architect of their own happiness and he said physical fitness is the prerequisite to happiness and that is because when we feel good in our bodies and we have generalized mobility and control of our bodies we have the tools to then fully experience the joy and zest for life.

When our body doesn’t move well, it doesn’t feel well. Which are normal parts of the human experience, we lose that ability to spontaneously erupt into the joy of life. With that, we are going to explore how movement can be integrated into our health and take care of ourselves first to maximize the joy and true happiness of the human experience. It does not mean you have to have a picture-perfect body but it’s about finding the home and enjoyment within your own.

I will see you this week, practice self-care this week.

You are worth it.

Marilyn Harder

Marilyn Harder is an ambassador of all things self love and self care. She holds both a Master’s Degree in Business (MBA) and a Bachelors of Science in Psychology from UC Davis and well over 60 certifications in the movement and wellness industry. She has an advanced knowledge of kinesthetic movement that she acquired in her work with dysfunctional movement patterns in a 55 and older retirement community. She works primarily as a Pilates Master Trainer and has taken over 150 people through the 500 hour comprehensive Pilates Teacher Training program. Concurrently, she works as Bowenwork practitioner and a Restorative Wellness Practitioner both as additional modalities to troubleshoot healing and optimal wellness. She utilizes her education in all realms (psychology, movement, naturopathic health and nutrition) in her approach to beauty. What we put on and in our bodies matters but not nearly as much as HOW and WHY we do so. Marilyn approaches health and beauty through a triad -movement, nutrition and self care. Out of self care, self love is born. And out of self love authentic purpose, passion, and works are done. She believes that all pursuit of happiness and purpose begins by anchoring yourself spiritually and loving yourself through the eyes of God.
