Testimonial: Alkalign Saved Me

by | Feb 8, 2018

Dear Erin,

 

I have just returned home from a routine run through Wunderlich Park in Woodside. As I was running down the mountain, enjoying the spectacular morning and accompanied by an inspirational book on Audible, somehow my footing gave out beneath me. As I realized I was not going to regain my footing or avoid falling, my next thought was how to brace myself so as not to do a complete face plant (a little embarrassing here but a funny visual, I know) or have a serious injury. Somehow, Alkalign popped into my mind as I was losing ground, and in that moment, I was able to keep myself up until I could find a safe place and position to land. This is where my Alkalign training of the past almost 10 years comes in. Without having attended your classes, I would not have had the strength or bandwidth to pull this off. Oh, did I mention that I got up, brushed myself off, scanned my body for injuries and continued my run with only a couple of very minor scrapes?

 

In the end, I did not come to Alkalign to lose weight (I didn’t need to) or get fit (I was already in shape). I came to strengthen, tone and stretch. Never would I have known all these years later that Alkalign continues to keep me safe, strong and in one piece while living my active lifestyle.

 

Thanks to your dedication, creativity and guidance, I have received beyond measure what I expected. The community of women are among the loveliest on the mid-Peninsula.

 

Keep up the amazing work!

 

Much love,
Suzanne

It Doesn't Have to Hurt to Work

A NEW, 2-week FREE program we are offering to any and all who want to get off the hamster wheel and try something that 1) works and 2) you will enjoy in the process. No more beating yourself up and spiraling the shame drain thinking you have to do more and be more. We embrace a philosophy that it doesn’t have to hurt to work. The extremes aren’t sustainable. Be kind to yourself. Be kind to your body. Slow, steady and sane wins the race of life. And we are here to help you along the way.

Hi! I’m Erin and my passion in life is helping others feel better by helping them get out of their own head. So much of our relationship to food and fitness is a reflection of deeply rooted beliefs that were imprinted on us at a very early age. These beliefs drive all sorts of behaviors, many of which are not good for our physical or mental health. I know this first-hand. As a former calorie-counting cardio queen I played right into all the toxic messages about what it meant to be “healthy”. That all changed when I hit rock bottom. Since leaving my corporate career in 2009 I have been fully committed to shifting the narrative and helping people experience better physical health by unpacking unhealthy beliefs. My biggest inspiration are my two young daughters, who I hope to raise in a household that openly illuminates and addresses the misinformation instead of adopting it.
