Shim'on acknowledged the physical challenges she's faced in regaining her fitness post-childbirth but emphasized a newfound compassion and acceptance towards her body. "I did it. I put Olli in kindergarten and went to take a ballet class after not going for four months. It was so right and pleasant," she wrote alongside a selfie from the studio.
She further elaborated on her evolving relationship with her body, expressing gratitude for its strength and resilience. "It wasn't that it wasn't hard to see myself out of shape, but there was also compassion, and I made space and worked slowly and didn't push and wasn't angry and managed to be. To be inside my sweet, beloved, strong, heroic body, what a body it is. That carries me day by day in rehearsals, that carries Olli day by day. Thank you body, thank you for everything."
Additionally, Shim'on mentioned undergoing a treatment session with "Ivan the Terrible" to "reconstruct" herself, calling it the best thing she could have given herself. She also completed another workout, so focused that she forgot to take a picture.
