Sleep is a hard thing. Good sleep is even harder.The complexity of our network of systems makes it even harder to isolate the keys to getting a great night’s sleep when literally anything and everything can disturb our sleep. While occasional sleep disturbances can be normal for sure, long term sleep disruption is not. Our work IN this week is changing the way we look at the complex puzzle of sleep from a nice to have to a non negotiable priority in our health.

Eating “right” is a hard thing but not because it’s actually hard to do. Experts keep changing their minds, making unsupported nutrition recommendations that are riddled with conflicts of interest and have resulted in the exact opposite of health in the real world. That’s confusing and annoying and challenging but that’s not really what makes it hard either. Eating right is hard because we have outsourced our common sense when it comes to basic biology of nourishment for the bodies we live in. That’s our work IN today. We’re looking at 5 simple ways to reclaim the uncommon sense around nutrition in order to nourish the body, mind and nervous system.

What do you believe about your health? Who makes and keeps you healthy? Who is the expert in your physical, mental and emotional health? Today on the Work IN we’re going to talk about how our health beliefs and fear programming can make us and keep us sick, how big pharma and big food in collusion with the media and big government make that happen, and how you can take back your power.

NSDR non sleep deep rest is all the rage these days, thank you Andrew Huberman. But it has been around in the form of Yoga Nidra for thousands of years. What does yoga Nidra have that NSDR doesn’t? And will you miss it?Today on the Work IN we’ll take a look at what’s really going on in a Yoga Nidra Meditation, what’s missing from an NSDR meditation and why you may want to dip your toe into more traditional forms.

This is part two of our conversation with Colleen Jorgensen our favorite osteopath and pain care educator, about the body as a network. And last week, we were speaking in broad terms about this idea that we are all of us more than the individual systems that make up our body and how that is an important understanding and awareness for overall health. Now, we're going to take a little different approach to that same information and look at how we can apply some of this awareness as instructors in a group fitness setting or one on one with people. So you're gonna get to hear some really specific ideas and tips and ways and things that you can apply with your classes right now.

we have our favorite osteopath and pain care educator Colleen Jorgensen back with us on the work in and as you may remember Colleen is also a pain care where trainer a therapeutic Pilates yoga and Cymatics practitioner and she brings a world of experience with her to the conversation around all things wellness movements, and connecting the mind and body for real world resilience and results. Our conversation today was centered around the body as a network of systems and how we can use that network through small movements, small tools to bring big relief.
