On Feb 1st, 2020 Nativ Hotel will be hosting an event called Body Mantra by Christina Marie. Body Mantra is a daytime event that educates attendees on the power of self-love and body positivity. This is done through  fitness classes, food education, fashion show, and top social media influencers sharing their knowledge on a feelings panel. Christina Marie says, “ A body-positive mindset is so important in our society today. For so long we have been told only certain types of bodies are beautiful, or that if we look a certain way on the outside we will finally be happy. I live by the belief that if we can accept who we are and what we look like in the present moment, we will love ourselves into the best version of who we want to be!”

The event goes from 1-5 PM on Saturday, Feb 1st and tickets are available on Event Brite. Ticket types include: General Admission, VIP, and Yoga with top influencer Mindful Jess.

I sat in her chair and she shared her story with me. A woman, 44 (just like me) who got pregnant when she was 19. She dropped out of cosmetology school when she had her baby girl. She talked about how for her next 20+ … Read more!
