Do you ever go to move and notice your body resisting the movement?

 

Almost like your body put the brakes on and was like, “Woooah, I don’t know if I like this movement.”

 

Let me tell you why this is happening: your past experiences are shaping your reality or what you believe to be true. It’s your body’s way of protecting you from the pain you are afraid of (even if you’re not experiencing any pain!) This anticipatory reaction can keep you stuck in a cycle of fear and limited movement which could result in MORE pain.

 

Understanding this can take you from pumping the breaks to cruising down the highway with confidence.

 

In this episode, you’ll learn how to recognize and release fear-based movement patterns, use breath to initiate safe and effective movements, and build a consistent practice that fosters trust and reduces pain.
