Did you know that core strength is critical in every movement you do? In fact, it's important to build enough core strength before building strength anywhere else. Having a strong core makes it easier to do everyday activities, leading to better balance and stability, good posture, and a healthy back. Whether you're in treatment, in recovery, or a caregiver, there are many benefits to focusing on core strength. Join us for a conversation with The Core Method's creator, Lily Horowitz who will share a workout routine suitable for all abilities and share helpful tips on: • Why building a strong core, especially post-surgery, is so important • How taking care of your core leads to better wellness • Simple exercises you can incorporate into everyday activities For the full video episode and all other episodes visit the Wellness Wednesday YouTube playlist HERE.

To do anything that the masses are not doing will require a commitment from you that will test you, stretch you, and at times come to close to “killing” you. But if you are blessed enough to be consumed with a passion for something that means more to you than life itself, you will find a way to finish your race. You will find a way to succeed with this strength of purpose.

Rocks, mountains, trees, camels, dogs, rabbits, and flying pigeons, we'll try out being all of them. Wall space is helpful for this practice, but otherwise the sequence is prop-lite. Enjoy!

How do you learn to keep your back straight? Poor posture is a common problem that negatively affects movement mechanics for almost all exercises. Trying to improve posture and technique can be difficult. In this podcast, I discuss common issues, what exercises to address them with, and how to start from zero if you have no capacity for athletic movements I refer to the book "Intervention", by Dan John=http://amzn.to/2trwPw6 which is an excellent guide how to learn how to move if you are truly movement limited. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-art-of-health/support
