Move to Remember Who You Are: Why Exercise is More Than Just Fitness
On this week’s blog episode, Minelle opens up about how movement became a powerful act of self-connection, healing, and self-love—far beyond aesthetics or performance.
The Healing Miles: Running for Mental Health
Running is a powerful way to process pain and reconnect with yourself. It doesn’t numb the pain, but instead forces you to feel everything, emotion, breath, and movement. Whether solo or in a group, running offers both solitude and connection, teaching you resilience and self-love. It’s not about speed or distance, but about showing up and moving forward, proving to yourself that healing is possible. So, if you're struggling, start running, through the pain, not away from it.
