1. “I am wonderfully made” Affirmats Yoga/Pilates Mat
Affirmats are a perfect fit for this challenge. Not only are these mats comfortable and stylish, but they provide a little affirmation to get you going through the day. I ADORE this one. ($66.00 value)
![Hot and Cold Foot Roller](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9aa390_c3c915cea0c44438ad1e7e63a4b7f729~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_980,h_546,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_avif,quality_auto/9aa390_c3c915cea0c44438ad1e7e63a4b7f729~mv2.jpg)
2. Gaiam Hot And Cold Foot Roller
Ideal for relieving plantar fasciitis, pain from heel spurs or just tired, achy feet. The unique shape allows the roller to effectively fit into the arch and the raised surface dots provide a kneading effect for extra relief. The soothing stimulation immediately relaxes muscles and eases tension. In addition, the hot/cold technology allows the roller to maintain temperature for up to 30 minutes of hot or cold therapy. Available at Amazon.com ($15.00 value)

Self-Care Challenge…
Today’s self-care challenge has less to do with ourselves and more to do with others.
![MBM 7](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9aa390_ca3311f181644b6983ab42c178fe837f~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_455,h_455,al_c,q_85,enc_avif,quality_auto/9aa390_ca3311f181644b6983ab42c178fe837f~mv2.png)
Sometimes the best thing we can do is turn our focus outward and brighten someone else’s day.
So today, I challenge you to do something kind for someone you love or perform a random act of kindness for a stranger.
It can be as simple as taking out the trash or as extravagant as buying the meal for the table next to you at dinner tonight. Whatever you do, have fun with it and notice how you feel when you take the focus off of yourself and turn it toward helping others.

Let’s workout…
It’s all about the legs today! This standing Pilates sequence will challenge your balance and control. I filmed it at the end of a long day so you will see that it’s hard work for me too! Standing Pilates work is fun way to change things up and improve your functional strength.
Enjoy!
