Καλή άνοιξη!🌼 On the last day of February, Greeks will weave bracelets of red (representing life and passion) and white (representing purity) string and wear them around the right arm or left foot to welcome the transition of winter into spring and to protect the cheeks from burning in the sun.🧛🏻‍♀️☀️ When the bracelets are removed varies from region to region: at the end of March, the beginning of May, when flowers begin to bloom, or when birds begin to return home. The bracelets are then tied to the branches of a tree so that it may be fruitful, and so that birds can use the strings to make their nests.🌳🐦 This tradition dates back to ancient Greece, and I’m tickled to be participating alongside my ancestors.🇬🇷🏺 Here is my #Martis bracelet this year, complete—of course—with a #mati charm for a little added protection.😉🧿 #Καλήάνοιξη #happyspring #martisbracelet #kalomina #καλομηνα #greek #greece #greekmysteek #goodluck #evileye #protection #martismadness #handmadejewelry #diybracelet #marchbracelet #μαρτη #instajewelry #hellomarch #wakeupwakeupitsthefirstofthemonth #spf #hellenicaesthetic #martakia #evileyejewelry #springtime
Hi. So. I’m being treated for a stress fracture in my ankle and just like the tibial plateau fracture of 2017, this injury is puzzling to the doctors. Par for the course. While this is a very, very minor injury (more of an inconvenience, really), I still caught myself yesterday growing frustrated. I started comparing myself to other people in my gym and dance circles, cursing this additional hurdle and delay getting to the level I want to be physically. However. I have multiple sclerosis. I have osteoporosis. I had a traumatic leg injury less than two years ago, forcing me to stay off of it for 9-10 months. And I was just learning how to walk again at this time last year. Apples to apples comparisons don’t work here. So, I may still look awkward af when I’m at the studio or at the gym, but you know what? I’m dancing. I’m flipping tractor tires. I show up. And I’m kicking ass. 💪🏻 #whatarethose #dasboot #stressfracture #thembones #osteoporosis #multiplesclerosis #ms #msawareness #msawarenessmonth #applestrong #ifiwanttolive #itsonlyabruise
