Redefining Movement

Today I want to share why I love handstands – and how a handstand can change your life!

If you’ve never done a handstand, don’t worry – I was right there with you! I thought I’d never do a handstand in my life, and by the time I was 36, I still hadn’t. But then I started working with neurologically impaired patients.

I saw how they were able to remap their brains to do incredible things no one expected them to be able to do, so I thought, why can’t I remap my brain too?

And I’m so happy I did. Beyond the physical movement of getting your weight onto your hands, which has a number of health benefits, it moves energy in the body, potential in your spirit, and your belief in yourself.

Today I am joined by my dear friend and business partner, Kristen Fletcher.

We talk about all of the things that inspired my journey into movement and she asks me questions about venturing into yoga, becoming an entrepreneur, discovering my mission, and how to find what fuels you.

I want to introduce all of you to an exceptional physical therapist, a movement specialist, and a biomechanical, anatomical wonder: my brother John Frank (who is just one of my brothers because we’re triplets)!

If there’s one person I’ve learned the most from, it’s definitely John!

And since people often send me questions about yoga, today I ask John these questions so we can get a physical therapist’s perspective on various aspects of yoga and movement.

Buoyancy is such a beautiful concept – a lightness or resilience of spirit, or, in a sense, cheerfulness – and today I explore how we can bring more buoyancy into our yoga practices and our lives.

To get a feeling of why buoyancy is so precious, I suggest saying the word out loud. It’s almost like sensational onomatopoeia – when you say it, you feel it!

Imagine floating in water, when you can truly feel the sensation of buoyancy. It’s a return to our birth body, the uterus swimming pool we used to be swimming in, and this is a state that most of us strive to return to through our spiritual and physical practices.

In yoga, we often talk about how we have everything we need; we are essentially this beautiful essence, then life happens to us and hardening happens to us so we adapt in good and bad ways to different situations and different movement patterns. And when we can return to this essence of who we are through movement, it allows us to embody that delightful cheerfulness!
