MeM 1: Introduction to Movement Es Medicina: SuperMarkRock

Que onda, thanks for taking a moment to get my video of you and listen. Truly appreciate the time. I am grateful for your time and attention to this message.

If we have crossed paths, you've heard at length, you have heard me speak about mental health and wellness, well-being, physical or spiritual health, and about how I believe in the healing properties of movements. You've heard me talk time and time again. If we have spoken, I am sure I am quite positive you have heard me speak about prioritizing your mental and physical health, your mental and physical health, and even have asked, what are you doing?

What are you doing for your own wellness? Every single person, every single person that I have spoken to or met over the past five, six, seven, eight years, I push movement on. Yeah, I do.

I push movement. I share my mantra, my personal philosophy, that Movement Es Medicina. I have developed with so many in my life who have encouraged me, challenged me, held me accountable, pushed me, and supported me in my wellness journey, specifically my healing.

I want to share that Movement Es Medicina. Movement Es Medicina. I truly believe that.

I am a Movement Enthusiast. Walking, cycling, hiking, stretching, yoga, swimming, strength training, and two-saddles, running. I am a Movement Enthusiast.

I believe in the healing properties of movement and what they've done for my healing.

You have seen some of the physical transformations since I began this journey, whether on IG, Facebook, or seen in person. However, it is my mental health, my mental well-being, the healthy rituals and habits that I want to highlight with you. I want to encourage you to move with me.

Move with us. Movement Es Medicina community. My journey, as well as those that I've met, or have built an active lifestyle with, have not always been committed to building healthy habits in their lives, or for their communities, nor for my life as a matter of fact.

Life was life, you know. Life was life, let me tell you. I experienced professional and professional challenges that have built up over the years.

Not only, I began my healing journey. One day, stepping outside and going for a walk, while listening to one of my favorite bands, I was going to fight. That changed everything for me.

Absolutely everything.

Not once did I say, today is the day that I am turning my life around. Today is the day that I'm going to start a fitness or wellness journey. Not once did I say this.

Not once I said I'm going to join a gym. Nor did I say today is the day that I'm going to begin healing.

Not once did I say that. That walk is all it took. That walk while listening to Earth, Wind, & Fire.

Keep your head in the sky. Never forget it. Pain the way for me into a life of prioritizing mental health, creating healthy rituals in my life.

Joy, uplifting. My aduanas and aduanos, juntos. Together we built this.

I am from a community of resilient chingonas and chingones. Community of badasses. I am the descendants of revolutionaries, farm workers, blue collar workers.”

I am from blue collar roots. A community of lowriding, bumping oldies, funk, manzana's, where we wore dickies and wore button collars all the way to the top. That's where I come from.

Yo soy Chicano. A Chicano who prioritizes joy and an active lifestyle. I'm a brown man who runs, cycles, walks, practices yoga, stream trains.

I'm a Latino who wants to prioritize and normalize health, wellness, and fitness for our gente, in my community.

I am a Chicano who practices grace and forgiveness. I am a dope, educated individual. I am.

I believe in ancestral accountability.

Not only to ourselves, our communities, but to future generations that are coming behind us. The future generations we represent, essentially a future ancestor state of mind. I believe our ancestors' prayers are still carrying us, and will continue to do so.

I believe that, as they continue to pray for us, as we heal, grow, and more importantly, thrive. All that being said, I want to introduce you to the Movement Es Medicina podcast. Finally hit that record button.
