Have you ever noticed that when you're stressed out your shoulders feel more tight than usual?

Or that your jaw tension is through the roof when you have a stressful presentation coming up?

It's no big surprise to know that stress, pain, and tension are connected - that what happens in your body and what's going on in your brain is connected by a two-way street.

In this episode, I'm joined by licensed therapist Natalie Moore who blends holistic modalities like mindfulness, somatic psychology and breathwork into her work.
