Peace is not found by fleeing discomfort, but by sitting with it, at 44.4°F. Embrace the discomfort we have choice over. This waterfall is one of my favorite chilly places to return to a place where I often go to find my grounding, my clarity, my breath. Day 5 of 91. #bendoregon #coldplunge #coldshower #myhappyplace #444
On this warm summer night, our tribe gathered high above it all, to be present, to release what no longer serves.
At Oregon’s second highest drivable peak, we breathed with intention, each inhale a return, each exhale a letting go.
And as the sun slipped behind the mountains, we danced—not to become anything, but to remember we already are.
Just breath, rhythm, and the quiet joy of being here together. #sunsetdance #livewithintention #bendmagazine #bendoregon #findyourtribe
Somewhere along the way, people forgot how much they needed each other.
So we gathered at sunset.
Breathed together.
Danced together.
And remembered.
More sunsets. More movement. More connection.
Follow @getupandgroove for our next gathering soon.
Bend, Oregon
What started as a simple idea to bring more connection, movement, and joy into public spaces has grown into something really special.
Honored to see GetUpandGroove featured in @bendmagazine and grateful for every person who has danced, connected, and helped build this community with us over the last few years. Thank you @miradavs for the excellent article.
We’re just getting started.
