Having the best day in Pittsburgh with the @caliabycarrie fam and feeling v lucky. ❤️ One of the biggest perks of this job is being able to connect with other like-minded women from all over the country. 👯‍♂️ ⠀
⠀
It’s been so cool to see where we all are coming from... Chicago, Vegas, LA, Houston, NYC, etc. ✈️💕 Love that IG has the ability to bring people together and create a sisterhood, no matter the distance or individual experiences. ⠀
⠀
In fact, I met many of my close friends through social media! How about you? TAG AN INSTAGRAM TURNED IRL FRIEND BELOW! 👇🏼#StayThePath #MelDoesYoga #PartnerYoga

QUICK Q: WHAT’S YOUR GO TO COFFEE ORDER? ☕️ When I’m not getting matcha, mine is typically an oat or almond milk latte with 1 pump of vanilla. 👌🏼 ⠀
⠀
(FYI - places like Starbucks put 4 pumps of syrup in a “grande” latte which is about 20 grams of sugar.) ⠀
⠀
Of course if rainbow birthday cake lattes are on the menu, all bets are off. I’ll 💯% order that and enjoy every last drop of sweetness. 🌈🤪 #ItsCalledBalance #LatteArt

Yoga is always better with these two pupperonis. 🐶💕 BTW I have some exciting news!! I recently filmed 3️⃣ bodyweight “yoga sculpt” classes for @gracexstrength and am happy to announce that they will be released in March! 💕 ⠀
⠀
This subscription service is tailored specifically for Christians ✝️ who want a safe space to practice yoga. Each video is 20 min and the theme I focused on was “love,” drawing from 3 of my favorite Bible verses. ✨ ⠀
⠀
Think of it as a simple way to incorporate Christian beliefs into your practice: no Sanskrit, no chanting “OM” and no mentions of “the universe.” ☺️⠀
⠀
You can save 10% off the annual subscription with code: MELT20.

I‘ll share a sneak peek of the videos soon and hope to see you on your mat! 💕#MelDoesYoga #ChristianYoga

I DID A THING 🎨🙈. I haven’t painted in a really long time and I’ve NEVER painted on a wall before. But yesterday I got this idea in my head that our office needed some jazzing up. 🤪 So 5 new paints, 4 hours, and lots of going up and down a ladder later... here we are!! ⠀
⠀
I originally had a vision to make the fruity floral prints so much bigger, like a true mural. 🍊But I chickened out and went with a smaller print that was a bit more in my comfort zone. 🙈 It’s not even close to perfect and yes, I could have bought a stencil or decals... but this feels special and I’m so happy I did it. 🎉 ⠀
⠀
Watch till the end to see how it came together. 💕😂 #WallArt

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞'𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞! ❤️ I know this holiday is a bit cheesy but Vday weekend will always be super special for us. ⁣⠀

WHAT’S YOUR FAV WAY TO UNWIND? 🛁 I know this colorful #Galentines inspired bath may seem a bit “extra” but it’s v necessary for me, and here’s why... ✨ ⠀
⠀
NYC has a way of making us feel the need to always be “on” and stay busy. We’re constantly taking shortcuts to get somewhere faster (cue the shower wipes and dry shampoo 🤪). And we praise productivity like we’re winning a prize for it. ⠀
⠀
Not gonna lie, sometimes we just need to CHILL the eff out and acknowledge that rest and relaxation are JUST as necessary as working out and eating salads. 🥗 💕 ⠀
⠀
So whatever this may look like for you, give yourself permission to take time for yourself. ✨ You deserve it, bb. #SelfCareTip #GalentinesDay

Channeling so many happy vibes during last week's brunch for dinner event with @HappyEggCoUSA. 🍳 💕 As many of you know, I've been pescatarian for the past 2 years and eggs are definitely a staple in my diet. 🥚 As much as I love them, it's super important to me to only support and buy from companies that treat their hens with lots of love. ⠀
⠀
Terms like "cage free" are so misleading because typically the hens are still in overcrowded conditions and never step foot outside. 😔 That's why when I heard about Happy Egg and their Always Choose Happy mission, I knew I needed to help spread the word. 👏🏻 ⠀
⠀
Their hens are raised under the highest animal welfare standards with over 8 acres of pasture to roam. 🐓🌿 Their feed is vegetarian, nutrient-rich, all natural and hormone-free, which means higher quality eggs for us. ⠀
⠀
And tbh, you can totally tell the difference! The yolks are SUCH a vibrant orange color and all of the egg dishes their team whipped up tasted incredible. 🧡 ⠀
⠀
I'm pretty sure I had 3 helpings of the tuna tartare (pictured here) but shhh, it'll be our little secret. If you want to get your hands on these eggs, be sure to check out the store locator on their website. 🥰🐓🍳I already told @bayphillips that it has to be on our weekly grocery list. #AlwaysChooseHappy #Sponsored

𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐠𝐢𝐟𝐭. Instead of getting caught up in what our bodies 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵, let’s try to shift our mental dialogue to how grateful we are for what our bodies 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘥𝘰 for us. ✨ ⁣⠀
⁣⠀
Our body is always fighting for us, getting us from place to place, allowing us to hug the ones we love, and keeping us alive while we sleep. ⠀

7 EXERCISES YOU CAN DO WITH SLIDERS! No, not the burger kind 🍔🤪, I’m talking those little disks you’ve seen at the gym and probably ignore. I teamed up with @silhouettebyalexis to demo some of my fav moves that she incorporates into her classes. ⠀
⠀
They may be underrated but these little guys can add a huge challenge to your workout! 👏🏻 Not only do they increase your balance and core strength, but they force EVERY muscle to be engaged during each move. 💕⠀
⠀
Have you used slider disks before? 🤔SAVE THIS FOR YOUR NEXT WORKOUT! #barreworkout

AND THE MOST FUN WORKOUT AWARD GOES TO...💋💃🏻 (sry, still thinking about #Oscars2020). You all know I adore my sculpt and yoga classes, but it’s no secret that I have a very special love for cardio dance at @305fitness! ⠀
⠀
It’s legit a vibe you guys. ✨ Live DJ in every class, super girly studios (I mean look at these stairs), the most upbeat & energizing instructors, and maybe the best part... the community. ⠀
⠀
No one judges. ⠀
⠀
You can be super extra and wear leopard print biker shorts in the dead of winter and everyone will cheer you on for it. 📣 And the workout itself is KILLER! 🔥 Cardio dance, hip hop choreo, HIIT, and toning all come together for such a fun experience. ⠀
⠀
If you’re in NYC and wanna check it out, Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to go! 👯‍♀️ All the studios will have treats, giveaways and fun photo opps + classes after 2pm at their UES studio are “Bring a Friend” (meaning your +1 is free). 💕⠀
⠀
Tag your Galentine and get ready to #MakeSweatSexy 💃🏻

SELF LOVE IS NOT SELFISH. 💕 {#TelefloraPartner} It’s simply about being mindful of what it is that brings you joy and allowing yourself to honor that.⠀
⠀
Since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and LOVE is top of mind, I decided to treat myself to all the necessary self love today by: ⠀
⠀
🌸 Meditating for 15 min this morning⠀
🌸 Snuggling with my pups⠀
🌸 Ordering the most gorgeous handmade flower bouquet from @teleflora. (This beauty is from their 2020 Valentine’s Day bouquet lineup and was delivered by a local florist.)⠀
🌸 Decluttering and cleaning my space to bring all the good vibes.⠀
🌸 Booking a fun dance class ⠀
🌸 Eating super nourishing food that makes me feel amazing⠀
🌸 Calling my bestie to catch up on life⠀
⠀
Honestly, sometimes it just takes a day of prioritizing yourself to make you feel a million times better. 💕 How are YOU practicing self love? #LoveOutLoud⠀
