Redefining Movement

Brett Larkin started playing around with video and yoga about eight years ago, and that spiraled into what is now her full-time job. She teaches yoga on YouTube, has a mobile app membership site and does online teacher trainings. Brett never saw herself making a livable income from teaching yoga, so showing other people that it is possible to make money doing what you love is one of her greatest passions.

Plank pose is amazing! It’s actually a developmental stage like crawling. A lot of babies will pop their knees up and they're in a plank, and you're like, holy moly, look at that strong, little baby! It’s a great workout for your core and also strengthens your wrist and hands, triceps and spinal muscles. Not to mention lengthening the neck and toning the buttocks. So we should be doing plank all the time.

Better posture is possible, and it can dramatically improve everything, including the way you breathe! 

Today I’m talking about how proper use of one particular muscle - the longus colli - can help you find a better position for your skull on your neck, get proper oxygen flow to your brain and resolve tension headaches.

Tune in to hear my best exercises for strengthening this muscle and reprogramming the way you position your skull - think of it as core work for your neck.

Did you know there are scientifically proven benefits to being kind? Kindness lowers cortisol (the stress hormone) and increases our energy, level of happiness and even our lifespan. People who are perpetually kind also age more slowly than others!

Today I’m sharing some great ideas for acts of kindness from The Great Kindness Challenge. The ideas include: go a full day without complaining, donate something to your local animal shelter and smile at 25 people.

But most of all, get out there and be fearless and kind!
