As the founder, CEO and educator of GST Body, Anna has spoken about holistic body care through fascia around the world, partnered with top athletes, surgeons, physicians and celebrities, and been featured in various publications, from Shape to Elle, Net-a-Porter to The Wall Street Journal.

On today’s podcast, Anna shares with us how our bodies are a “divining rod” pointing us to the roots of our bodily struggles. Her message of healing and vitality starts with us and how we can start healing ourselves with motion as medicine.

3 things you’ll learn in this episode:

1. The science of fascia and why it’s vital for health and wellness
2. How to harness motion as medicine

Think back to the last time you felt triggered - whether it was an eye roll from your kiddo, a rude comment from a neighbor, or being stuck in rush-hour traffic - being triggered activates our nervous system’s fight, flight, or freeze responses. 

But here’s the catch, when we’re triggered, we can’t just tell ourselves to calm down. We have to communicate safety in a way our nervous system understands.

In today’s episode, you’ll learn effective body-based tools to help communicate safety to your nervous system and bring yourself back into a state of balance. 

Learn how these practices can help discharge stress hormones, enhance sensory awareness, and promote emotional regulation.

There’s no escaping it - sometimes life’s just really hard. 

But even in the hard moments, we have choices.  And being intentional about our mindset is a major key to navigating life's toughest seasons with grace and purpose.

Today, I share about a season of big changes for our family, as we prepare to leave our home of 15 years in Miami for a new adventure. From closing my law firm to uprooting our family, the journey has been filled with both excitement and lots of tears. 

As we navigate the unknown, I've discovered powerful lessons about resilience, faith, and the strength we gain from life's challenges.

Listen in for a powerful mindset shift around adversity & resilience.  This mindset will help you find purpose in pain, and prepare you for the next season of growth and opportunity.

Today’s [rewind] is a throwback to episode 183 from last year all about how to create calm and safety in your nervous system.

In today’s [rewind] episode you’ll learn 5 different somatic (body-based) tools to create a sense of calm and safety in your nervous system.

These are exercises you can do any time you’re feeling dysregulated to help bring your body back to safety and ease it out of a fight, flight, or freeze stress response and back to regulation.
