If you want to start healing go to your breath! It's the easiest most impactful place to begin. Breathing exercises, diaphragm releasing techniques, relaxation and nervous system work are all part of the foundations of movement medicine for recovery and resiliency.
Perhaps, right now you are wondering if doing any exercise is good? YES! Research shows it's important to keep exercising but to choose the right way.
- Learn easy to follow exercises you can use over and over (from 20 - 60 minute movement sequences)
- Start with the fundamentals of movement that many other programs gloss over and dont teach correctly
- Get the know how, the 'why' it's important in a series of expert interviews
- Cleanse, detox, nourish and release
- Use movement medicine as your life coach (I'll even teach you how to release emotional stress with movement)
BEGIN with a simply daily 20 minute practice steeping yourself in the rhythm and benefits of movement medicine.
BENEFITS YOU WILL NOTICE
- Your breath will feel freer
- You will feel less anxious
- Your gut will work better
- Your mid and low back will become more flexible and comfortable
- Your core stomach muscles will get stronger
- Your pelvic floor will be stronger (because the pelvic floor and diaphragm have a connection we’ll discuss)
Learn to improve your default response to stress and tap into the healing power within your nervsous system. The results you will feel will be astounding.
In Part 2 of the Recovery and Resiliency Movement Medicine Protocol we repattern our physical, automatic and unconscious response to chronic stress by learning the power of movement sequences that hold within them deep healing tools. It's like therapy without having to talk it all out.
First and foremost, to change our automatic adaptive strategies of how we respond to things that trigger us, we need to cultivate a felt sense of safety.
In the second part of the Recovery and Resiliency Movement Medicine Protocol you will learn to come along side old movement and stress patterns that no longer serve you and support new ways of being more balanced, more your wise and loving self.
The movement sequences in this part of the protocol you will learn are easy to follow, and they are soothing, strengthening and graceful.
You will break down bad habits and build new good habits and patterns of movement.
You will cultivate your resiliency and courage in movement.

In Part 3 I teach you how to build, use and express energy in a way that wont drain you.
