Mobility: Building body faith and balance
Hypervigilance in the body, whether from chronic pain or previous injury or our beliefs about our health can break our faith in our body and its capabilities. Mobility is the pathway back to body faith and freedom of movement. Basically it’s reconnecting with all of the things we took for granted when we were younger. Strength, stamina, balance and coordination. That’s our work IN today we’re looking at using mobility to stage our own personal body faith revival.
When it hurts to move something has to change
One of the biggest myths about movement is that if it hurts you shouldn’t do it. And if we’re talking about an acute injury like a broken arm or torn acl then yes that’s true. In the acute phase of an injury we need to hit pause. But what if the source of our pain isn’t known, or the treatment isn’t knowable. I’m talking about the kind of chronic pain that our medical professionals can’t find a reason for or have no cure. That’s our work IN today. We’re discussing the connection between mobility and chronic pain and how we can use movement to change our experience in the body.
Yoga Snacks: Snack on movement all day long
Even when you can’t get to the gym for that HIIT class or your favorite 90 minute vinyasa, you can still snack on movement throughout your day every day.
