Let's Do Pilates Together!
Everyday messy life in my living room pilates setup!
For 7 years now, I’ve loved doing Pilates at home with The Balanced Life Sisterhood. What I’ve loved about Robin Long, who created The Balanced Life and leads all the workouts, is that she’s like a best friend doing pilates with you in your living room. Since I started doing her workouts in 2014, I’ve so appreciated how she fosters healthy and strong body image over being a certain size or appearance. My body seriously craves it now, and it goes hand-in-hand with the heavy lifting, more explosive actions of farming tasks - my core is more strengthened and I’m more in control of my body so I can feel stable when I do things on the farm.
AND a few fun connections…
1) My dear friend Susan Manes, who was also my old roommate from before I met Steven, now works for The Balanced Life!
2) Robin Long has also recently signed on with my same literary agency, Illuminate Literary. So excited for a future book from her!
If you want to try it out first, join the Feel Good 5-Day Pilates Challenge that starts Monday, March 1st! It’s totally (yes, actually, really) free, and you do it from your own home…

What Is The Balanced Life Sisterhood?
It's a community of women who are looking for something that's flexible and realistic in the midst of their busy schedules. Something that helps you build strength + reduce stress on a daily basis, from wherever you are and whenever you need it.
The membership includes a really fun-and-easy-to-use app (and website) with a library of hundreds of Pilates workouts, tons of nourishing anti-inflammatory recipes, a wellness mission each month, private Facebook group, online community, and lots of encouragement and support. So, you can take advantage of all of that, OR you can just have your daily workout (and a library of workouts to pick from) anytime you want to do pilates from home.
Yup, I’ve done Pilates in my pajamas, squeezed in 30 minutes while dinner is cooking, or even done workouts on my bathroom floor. Wherever and whenever, it still works wonderfully.
Here’s the very first day I did pilates with The Balanced Life in my Dallas living room with an infant and toddler tearing up the room. LOL!
The other day, I did my pilates on the front porch in the warm sunshine which was so life-giving after the ice and snow we had last week!
Not a bad view…
One of the things I love about pilates is that I feel like I’ve gotten a full body massage and a workout at the same time. Every muscle feels like it’s been stretched, I feel more connected to my body and more peaceful. After having two babies (and the last one being a homebirth VBAC), pilates has helped strengthen my core in so many ways.
The workouts are anywhere from 10-30 minutes long, and you can choose which one to do each day, or follow the pre-scheduled calendar.
