Hi everyone, as it is my first time to follow an online program with Bev and all of you, I have just prepared and tested 'gotomeeting'. It was simple and the workshop feels like a present to myself. Looking forward to be with you all in movement. Ann

It feels so awesome that a few simple and very gentle exercises can make the shifts that my body is calling out for. My calves and thighs felt so different at the end of the session - more amazing and less holding. I can also feel re-connected to my tenderness as my fingers touch the keys and look forward to my home-play and connecting to the new marker in my body.

Hi Ladies,
Very lovely to share with you all this morning, and I'm blown away by the learning and awareness that we offer each other and that my own body offers x
Today I felt an aspect of sacredness that knocked another nail in the coffin of the idea that sacredness was something to 'attain' almost, or at least to 'uncover', and made it instantly accessible in my body - it was when Beverley you shared about the core and strength from inside as we did the simple moves, from this I connected to my authority, my 'command' of my body if you will. This felt to be the everydayness of sacredness. – Connection, authority in the body of that connection, and claiming/standing in it (and then moving of course ;) – can't get on with life standing otherwise!). So it's helped hugely in what has been coming up this previous few weeks, around handling all that needs to be done without losing myself, when work is full-on and asks that I bring everything I have, to it. I now have a new, very practical tool (a feeling in my body) to practice with in all of this. Thank you.
with love,
Rosanna

Hi Rosanna
Great to hear and more importantly can feel the depth of this understanding from your body.
Once experienced within there is no way back :)
Enjoy

As confirmation of the benefits of consistently practicing the strength and balance exercise shared in Time to Shine I have recently received the results of a general health check up that I have every 2 years. Part of the health check is a spinal assessment and in January 2016 my Total posture score, upright posture, postural flexibility and postural stability were all in the range of 'Monitor and Improve'.
And in January 2018 the total posture score, upright posture and postural flexibility have moved into 'Functional' so I am in the normal range. So at 68 the strength and flexibility of my spine has improved from where it was at 66.
A great big 'THANK YOU' to Beverley and for the support of the group and an appreciation of my own commitment to consistency with the exercises.

Thank you so much for sharing Mary,
Super inspiring and powerful.

In the time I've known you, you have quietly and consistently brought your homeplay & healing into your daily rhythm. You are a beautiful example of the power of taking the learning and living it.

A wise man has been talking to us for awhile now :)

You have shown so beautifully every person with Osteoporosis/Osteopenia is that the diagnosis can improve with healing, movement & love - amazing.

It has been a joy to share this program with you and thank you again for sharing.

with love

A very beautiful session where I could feel a greater willingness to be more transparent and let go of the anxiety I hold around body and movement. I am appreciating how far I have come from that awkward teenager who felt so aware of being disco-ordinated - wow, that feels huge. To share with all you deeply beautiful women is truly divine....

great appreciation of the divine woman you are :)

A beautiful honouring program that my body loved so much and responded to as i did . Feeling the gentle care and power of the smallest movements so supportive really allowing the love in every movement. So beautiful to be with everyone feeling our vulnerability body awareness and gentleness increasing together and the honouring of ourselves with this. Thank you and lots of inspiration that the little moments make so much difference to our lives and the joy of feeling and allowing the sensitivity of our bodies and not the overriding of doing and pushing through as the conciousness of exercise suggests and then feeling a failure.

The integrity, subtlety of this work never ceases to amaze me and riming me always that less equals more and delicacy and love are the quality inherent in our bodies if we so choose to allow ourselves that amount of tenderness.
I began the session feeling hard and strained, but hadn't realised it enough to name in when I spoke, I was trying to be what I said I had not been trying to be and that is trying to be!
Therefore when I stood up I felt dizzy, disconnected and very wobbly and very lacking in confidence.
It wasn't till we lay down and stroked our arms and completed a movement in love that I suddenly felt very tearful and wept for my lost self but also joy for my new connection, and felt warm and delicious and whole, and then I could feel the whole group connect with a beautiful stillness and a deep sense of their bodies, it was beautiful.
I had a shock when I sat up and saw my reflection on the screen and realised my face had lost that hard look and my body was gentle.
Thank you Bev for all you give us --- our amazing, tender, superstar selves,
with love Joan

I agree Joan, the deepening of the group was wonderful.
the joy of you being who you truly are, vulnerable, open, loving, precious and sensitive has allowed each of us to be more of that ourselves. Each person brought more vulnerability to the session and how exquisite it was to feel and be apart of.
Joan you are a joy and thank you

A deeply beautiful session program to be part of and enjoy the realness and vulnerability of our bodies together. The everydayness of our every delicate movements with our connection to within and the melting and power from within felt from us all and staying with us from this expanding program is exquisite as you are Beverly guiding us with your light and loving words of appreciation of all we are in these gentle movements and the reflection of this in our bodies. A true treasuring of ourselves and humanity in the world.

Dear ladies,

You are each so inspiring to me, in the qualities you bring, your wisdom and the holding you offer. – And in that reflection and holding, I can also appreciate myself as well as you all :)

After today's session and the connection we have with ourselves and with each other I feel we are together, how our days are not just 'our day' but the opportunity to develop our connection and deepen the quality we offer each other. It's clear after this morning's experience, and makes sense, that we can bring a different purpose to what we do when the 'focus' is not on 'what we do' but on connection and what that means for everyone (gentle reminder to self ;))

After today's movements my body feels open, especially the upper body. These loving movements in deepening regard of myself have supported the body to let more of me out and let you in, and that's a gorgeous feeling, gorgeous ladies. Thank you

with much love,
Rosanna

This has been the most powerful series of osteo stength since I began nearly two years ago.I am finding the invitation to become more gentle and tender with myself is what strengthens my body. I love the way time and space expand in these sessions and the flow from one exercise to another is seamless and easy, no effort, just natural movement from one thing to another. The feeling that I can shine from my heart/chest only when arms are not appropriate has been a fantastic way for me to accept my grandness and shine. This has been a difficult week but in moments when I connect with that everything transforms. It's always being "on the ball", even when off it (literally)! I love that ball, it is such a teacher/reflector.
Thank you Bev and Everyone , and looking forward to the next series,
with love
Joan
