Hey sweet friends,
Welcome to the BootyByMich monthly lifestyle newsletter.
Each month I’ll be sharing with you what books I’m reading, recipes I’m cooking, questions I ask myself, my favorite workout of the month, thoughts I’m having, products I like (no promoted ads here!) and more.
This is a full personal BootyByMich inspiration page as a go-to for staying inspired when it comes to fresh ideas to connect with your mind, body, and environment; from my world to yours.
The Great Gatsby
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Why not read some classics?! As you know, I absolutely love to read…when I find a good book, its like hitting the jackpot leading me into an escape into another world. I haven’t found one I’ve loved recently… so I thought, why not read some great classics! these two are on my list this month!
Wuthering Heights
Emily Brontë
The 30-40 degree heat has been getting to me! At the end of the day I absolutely love to curl up in bed and watch some shows to recharge and refresh! Here are three shows that I watched recently with my rating! These are available on Netflix and Prime.
1. YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBOURS (BBM RATING 4.5/5)
2. BETTER SISTER (BBM RATING 4/5)
3. WE WERE LIARS (BBM RATING (3.5/5)

This may not work for everyone, but this is what I use :)
My back is FEELING IT after packing for the move, and I am freaking determined to open up my chest and pull those shoulders back where they were before all this moving began! I am committing to the 7 days POSTURE/UPPER BODY posture program! If you’re travelling and need a posture/ arms reset this is for you!
Slowly starting to make my way back to for videos on BBM!!I've never stopped doing A.S.S Blasts or posture videos - OMG they have saved me during pregnancy.I have been walking a ton, and while Laken naps putting on a quick video to do - I legit only have about 10-20 minutes.
I want to shut my mind, follow along while feeling productive, calm and effective in my workouts. These are two and whatI have tried last week!
Ps- Butters are life saving right now as my body is SO TIGHT from everyday life, postpartum body, lack of sleep etc…
What are your small, simple ways you show yourself love?
What creates joy within you, for you?
For me simple rituals that I have adapted into my life are writing, making my morning coffee (or exploring new coffee shops) and moving my body.
I don’t have to travel far for these simple acts that can change my mindset, uplift my mood or even just remind me that time with myself (my mind and body) is a gift that I really want to cherish in little ways daily.
I don’t put pressure on myself when it comes to journalling.
I have my journal and pen by my bed or near my couch, when I sip my morning coffee it feels almost like a habit to reach for it and write. This happens 3-4 times a week and I freely write how I'm feeling or what comes to mind.
I remember falling in love with journaling all over again when I was really wanting/needing to reconnect with myself. It just felt so damn good writing out my thoughts (even though that's not always easy) and writing my life, for me, by me.
What brings you peace?
What brings you joy?
What allows you to feel most YOU, that you can be your authentic self?
Whatever it is, implement it into your week, as a way to touch base with yourself.
We want to hear your story! Your motivation, authenticity and experience is worth sharing and I can’t wait to hear how you got started, where you are now, and what you are working towards, your experience with BootyByMich and how it has impacted your life. How long have you been a member for? One week, or over a year? What’s your BBM routine like? Share the vibe of your environment you create for yourself, any rituals you have before movements?!
You have the ability to share your ups and downs with us, and motivate us all. Send me a message to be spotlighted in the future. Pictures of progress can be sent too (I would love to see your progress, but no pressure at all!)
I am so excited to begin the new year with you all, continuing to grow this community all over the world!
You are my biggest motivation and I thank you for that.
Let’s ease into 2025 with patience, intention and enjoyment, as we build one block at a time for achieving a strong foundation for a long lasting healthy and happy way of living.
