Beloved’s!
Happy Lupercalia, the pagan holiday of nudity, animal sacrifices, and sexual rites!
(Originally, Lupercalia was a night of random sexual pairings; ostensibly, it was a poet who first linked the day to romance—Geoffrey Chaucer in his poem The Parlement of Foules. Apparently, this happened more or less by chance—Valentine’s Day is approximately the time when European birds start mating… Look out your window—are the birds getting spicy?)
And thank you for subscribing to Soul Sauce + Floss.
I’ve just posted the SNAKE to my YouTube channel, @drmlebeachwitch.
This badass martial-arts-inspired workout will strengthen your core and build cardiovascular capacity—because your fist and your foot are just the end result of. the power in the big muscles in your GLUTES and your ABS.
It features some of my ALL TIME FAV boxing, kick-boxing, and Muay Thai combos and does not require any martial arts expertise.
Ideally, you do the SNAKE | a Soul Sauce Workout and THEN you tackle Cosmic Curveballs & Dropped Mics | a Soul Floss Ritual.
SNAKE, THEN Cosmic Curveballs & Dropped Mics.
Soul SAUCE, then Soul FLOSS.
Why the SNAKE?
Because snakes know HOW and WHEN to STRIKE.
The snake is an invitation to define your moral center—i.e. CORE.
The snake’s medicine is ancient, complex, and foundational—for both HEALING and HARM.
The snake’s secret is that multiple realities exist at once until the moment we choose, and your choice creates the reality to come.
You are, for example, STRONGER, FASTER, more BEAUTIFUL, more POWERFUL, and more CREATIVE than you think you are.
My TRADEMARK ALCHEMICAL BLEND of physical movement—the SNAKE—and creative provocation—Cosmic Curveballs & Dropped Mics—is designed to jolt you into imaginative leaps and creative feats you didn’t know you had inside you.
You’ll need about 60-75 minutes total—45 minutes fitness, 15-30 minutes writing. This is a longer workout, beloveds—but guaranteed to jolt you into imaginative leaps and physical feats you didn’t know you had inside you!
(Try it! I guarantee you’ll leave with a delicious, enlivened feeling!)
