But a simple and affordable device you use at home, or anywhere? Over the past year, I've been using a healing tool from home that has completely changed the way I think about supporting the body. It's become an integral part of my own wellness routine, and after receiving so many questions from our community, I decided it was time to bring in expert Spooky2 Trainer, Jon Ellis, to discuss a technology that has developed a passionate following among those looking for natural ways to support their health. During this eye-opening conversation, we'll cover:

Breathing is a hot topic and we wanted to start the conversation with Helen Vanderburg, a world champion synchronized swimmer, gym owner, international presenter and a woman who has possibly taught a greater variety of fitness modalities than anyone else we know. This conversation includes key ways to use breath to activate, balance, and restore the body and mind and provides practical examples for exploring and expanding the use of breath with your clients and classes.Moving Conversation Socials    Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions:  Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain  https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6    Email: movingconvos@gmail.com  IG: @movingconvos  FB: Moving Conversations    Brian  IG: @fit4lifedc  FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/     Nora  IG: nora.s.john.7  FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7 

When working with clients with multiple issues, it can be easy to stop seeing the forest for the trees and get lost in the details of addressing each specific issue. In this episode we talk about how to make client sessions more effective by prioritizing specific skills and staying focused on them over time. This is how progress happens. We provided plenty of examples, tools and inspiration to support you in helping your clients make progress.Moving Conversation Socials    Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions:  Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain  https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6    YouTube: @brianricheyEmail: movingconvos@gmail.com  IG: @movingconvos  FB: Moving Conversations    Brian  IG: @fit4lifedc  FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/     Nora  IG: nora.s.john.7  FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7 

We both grew up in an industry where keeping the shoulders away from the ears and scapular stability were a foundation of upper body strength. While helpful, this is a limiting understanding of functional upper body movement. Today we take a deep dive into the nuances of identifying, training and improving scapular mobility along with building a three dimensional understanding of upper body training.

Brian just returned from a major fitness industry trade show and it got us thinking about fitness fads that come and go and fitness fundamentals that last through time. This conversation takes a look at how fitness and Pilates have evolved over the last 30 years. From group exercise to personal training to Pilates, the history of fitness reflects the growth of movement science and the growing sophistication of training techniques and equipment.

Last episode we learned about mirror neurons and the vagus nerve and other ways the brain and body connect with Anne C. Bishop, a neuroscientist and Pilates teacher. Today Brian and I discuss ways to bring the brain into training through clarifying intention, creating a safe environment and meeting our clients where they are on every level.

Anne C Bishop, creator of Brain Body Connect has spent over two decades deciphering the connection between neurology and teaching movement. In this episode, she introduces us to mirror neurons, polyvagal theory and other concepts from neurobiology and how they inform teaching. If you wonder why some cues work on one client but not on another, this episode provides some useful strategies to make your teaching more effective. Anne C Bishop graduated from Harvard University with a Master's Degree in Mind, Brain, and Education. She created Body Brain Connect because she wanted to teach others what she felt was missing in mind-body education: the brain, educational best practices and solid pedagogy.anne_bishop@bodybrainconnect.com https://www.facebook.com/BodyBrainConnect/ LinkedIn Group:  https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4308834/ Download the Pilates Brain Infographic here: https://body-brain-connect.kit.com/961d1739f1  or use this one https://tinyurl.com/pilatesbraininfographic Moving Conversation Socials    Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions:  Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain  https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6    Email: movingconvos@gmail.com  IG: @movingconvos  FB: Moving Conversations    Brian  IG: @fit4lifedc  FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/     Nora  IG: nora.s.john.7  FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7 

As movement teachers, our role is to tell clients what to do, how to move and (ideally) how to move better. This often involves correcting their movement patterns through verbal cueing, manual cueing or adding props. In this conversation, Brian and Nora discuss when, how and why to correct or not to correct. Starting with the concept of the “correction continuum” where movement correction runs the gamut from no correcting at all to cueing with such specificity the client hardly moves, we discuss strategies and case studies to illuminate common struggles instructors face when improving client's movement patterns.Moving Conversation Socials    Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions:  Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain  https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6    Email: movingconvos@gmail.com  IG: @movingconvos  FB: Moving Conversations    Brian  IG: @fit4lifedc  FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/     Nora  IG: nora.s.john.7  FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7 

The fitness world contains a wide variety of modalities and techniques. Nora and Brian discuss the roles Pilates and Personal Training play in a well rounded fitness routine. Pilates focuses on movement quality, while personal training focuses on functional abilities, when they are combined, everyone benefits. Nora and Brian discuss the roles the two disciplines play and how cooperation with talented trainers in complimentary fields can help clients reach their goals more effectively.Moving Conversation Socials    Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions:  Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain  https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6    Email: movingconvos@gmail.com  IG: @movingconvos  FB: Moving Conversations    Brian  IG: @fit4lifedc  FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/     Nora  IG: nora.s.john.7  FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7 

Following up on our inspiring conversation with Elizabeth Larkam, we discuss ways to design Reformer classes for special populations. Putting a couple of classes on the schedule focusing on clients with osteoporosis, low back pain or pre and post-natal women can bring in a loyal clientele and position you as an instructor with specialized expertise. Working with these clients requires a deeper understanding of the condition and a conscious approach to program design but it can be so rewarding to see how Pilates can truly change lives. Let us know if you are doing this already and how it's going.Moving Conversation Socials    Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions:  Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain  https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6    Email: movingconvos@gmail.com  IG: @movingconvos  FB: Moving Conversations    Brian  IG: @fit4lifedc  FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/     Nora  IG: nora.s.john.7  FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7

Key Topics Covered: 1. Design as Custodianship, Not Decoration Julian explains that design is about how a property works, not just how it looks in photos. He links design to long term wealth planning: like pensions, it's too important to leave entirely in someone else's hands. The goal is performance over years: easy lettings, happy tenants, fewer repairs, and a product that holds value. 2. The Big Mindset Shift: Property Is a Business and a Product Julian challenges the word “investment” and suggests landlords are really buying a business. Each property is a living, breathing product that gets used, abused, and needs managing. If you don't treat it like a business, it can quietly become a liability over five to ten years. 3. How Properties Become Liabilities Over Time Poor design and poor maintenance create a snowball effect: worse condition attracts worse tenants, which accelerates deterioration. Julian shares examples of developments becoming hard to sell or even “unmortgageable” due to maintenance and management issues. Legacy matters: many children don't want property, so dumping a problematic asset onto them creates stress, not wealth. 4. Why You Can't Abdicate Design to Architects and Builders Plans can pass planning and building regs but still be awful to live in. Common issues include impractical layouts, no storage, poor kitchen design, and bathrooms that don't function properly. Julian introduces the “good, fast, cheap” triangle: you can pick two, but not all three, and landlords pay the price later if they chase cheap and fast. 5. Practical Design Thinking for HMOs and High Use Properties In HMOs, the room is the tenant's home, so it must support multiple functions, not just sleep. Flow matters: kitchens, waste, smells, and shared spaces can make or break tenant experience and long term value. Lighting and electrics are often done to a builder's default spec, but that can create uncomfortable living and higher churn. 6. Serviced Accommodation Is an Experience Business Short stay guests want something boutique and memorable, not copy and paste. Julian recommends living in your serviced accommodation for a week to spot friction points: heating controls, WiFi, TV, keys, lighting, and usability. Service quality affects reviews, and reviews affect profitability. He references research suggesting superhost status can significantly lift margins. 7. The Commercial Upside: Small Design Changes, Big Profit and Value Gains Julian shares an example where improving presentation helped increase rent by £150 per month, which translated into a major profit uplift. He highlights how many landlords don't know their true profit margin, and confuse turnover with profit. Improving existing assets often delivers faster ROI than buying new ones, especially if older stock is dragging performance down. 8. How Julian Helps Investors: Training and Hands On Support Julian trains investors to become “design aware” and “design led” without needing to be designers. He offers remote consults (including Zoom based reviews), layout planning, electrical plans, materials specs, and project support via WhatsApp. His core message: be involved, be informed, and take control of the decisions that shape income and maintenance. Actionable Takeaways Treat each property like a business product, not a passive investment. Design for performance: durability, usability, flow, and maintenance, not just photos. Don't assume architects and builders will design a home that works, review layouts with real living in mind. Audit your existing portfolio before buying more, older assets may be dragging your returns down. Know your numbers: profit margin, not just rent, and understand how small rent uplifts can multiply profit. For serviced accommodation, test the experience yourself and tighten service, reviews drive revenue. Adopt the custodian mindset: build assets your children would actually want to inherit.

Pelvic floor tips to move from tension and guarding to comfort and confidence If you've been listening to this series and thinking… “Okay, I understand what might be causing my pain.” “I see how stress and mental load are affecting my body.” “But what do I actually DO?” This episode is your next step. Pain with intimacy is common — but it is not something you have to push through, numb out, or accept as your new normal. Today we're talking about practical, body-based strategies to reduce pelvic floor tension, rebuild safety, and gradually restore comfort and confidence in the bedroom. Because healing isn't about forcing relaxation. It's about creating safety. In This Episode, We Cover: Why pushing through pain makes it worse The pain → guarding → more pain cycle Why many women with painful intercourse actually have an overactive pelvic floor (not a weak one) The importance of downtraining before strengthening 360 breathing and long exhale techniques to calm tension “Hip breathers” and mobility work that support pelvic relaxation External soft tissue release before internal work How to approach dilators or pelvic wand work safely (if appropriate) The power of slowing down arousal and removing performance pressure Lube, positioning, and small environmental shifts that make a big difference How graded exposure helps retrain the brain and calm pain pathways The Big Reframe Pain with intimacy is not a sign that you are broken. It is information. Your nervous system and pelvic floor are communicating something — often about tension, overwhelm, fear, or past experiences. When we respond with pressure, force, or avoidance, the guarding increases. When we respond with safety, breath, and gradual progression, the body adapts. Your brain and pelvic floor are deeply connected — and both can relearn safety. Practical Starting Points If you're experiencing pain with intercourse, consider: ✔️ Pausing penetration temporarily ✔️ Focusing on breath and long exhales daily ✔️ Addressing hip, inner thigh, and glute tension ✔️ Prioritizing arousal before penetration ✔️ Experimenting with positions that give you control ✔️ Removing pressure to “perform” Remember: intimacy does not equal penetration. Connection and pleasure are broader than we were taught. When to See a Pelvic Floor PT You may benefit from professional support if: Pain persists beyond a few months You have a history of tearing or scar tissue You experience severe guarding or anxiety You're avoiding intimacy entirely DIY approaches aren't helping Inside RESTORE, we focus on breath coordination, nervous system regulation, mobility, and pelvic floor retraining in a progressive, supportive way. For more complex or severe pain, 1:1 pelvic floor physical therapy may be the best next step. You do not have to navigate this alone. Up Next in the Series In our next episode, we'll talk about rebuilding confidence and reclaiming pleasure — not just reducing pain. Because healing is not just about eliminating symptoms. It's about expanding what's possible. If this episode resonated, share it with someone who needs to hear that pain with intimacy is treatable — and that softness is strength. ~ XO Dr. Des

"[Multiple myeloma] is very treatable, very manageable, but right now it is still considered an incurable disease. So, patients are on this journey with myeloma for the long term. It's very important for us to realize that during their journey, we will see them repeatedly. They are going to be part of our work family. They will be with us for a while. I think it's our job to be their advocate. To be really focused on not just the disease, but periodically assessing that financial burden and psychosocial aspect," Ann McNeill, RN, MSN, APN, nurse practitioner at the John Theurer Cancer Center at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, NJ, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, TCTCN™, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about multiple myeloma.

The median age is about 69. It is more common in men than women. It's a ratio of about three men to two women that are diagnosed. It is much more common in people of African American descent with increasing global incidence linked to aging populations. Although, the highest rates are in high-income countries. So, if we look at some of the risk factors, and several have been identified, including MGUS. MGUS is a benign precursor of myeloma, and it stands for monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. Older age is also a risk factor, although we do see patients that are younger who are diagnosed with myeloma." TS 1:54 "Bone pain, specifically in the back, and fatigue, are very common symptoms that relate to things that are going on behind the scenes with myeloma. But also, patients can be bothered by frequent and long-lasting infections. So, they find that they get sick more frequently than their family and friends, and they take a longer time to recover. That could also be a presenting sign. I think there can be some presenting signs and symptoms related to electrolyte abnormalities, especially in later stages. They might be nauseated, vomiting, or constipated. Also, signs and symptoms related to cytopenias. You have to remember that this is a bone marrow cancer. So, we do have some problem with development of normal blood cells. So, we can see not only infections, but bleeding issues related to thrombocytopenia and factors related to anemia from low red blood cell counts." TS 7:15 "About 20%–25% of our patients who are diagnosed are asymptomatic. They have no symptoms. They're living their lives, they're going to work or they're traveling, playing golf on the weekends, taking care of their children or grandchildren. They are just living their lives. And at times, they go to the primary care physician and then they're referred to a hematologist-oncologist, and they're pretty surprised when they're sent to a cancer center. The way they are diagnosed in this matter is that their routine lab work, the complete blood cell count may be normal, there may be some slight differences in their hemoglobin. But what we see in the chemistry, the complete metabolic panel, is an elevation in their total protein and or an elevation of the total globulins." TS 9:22 "The bone marrow biopsy serves many purposes. You want to determine the percentage of bone marrow plasma cells. So, you want to get the degree of plasmacytosis. And then you want to do really specific tests on those plasma cells. So, you want to isolate the malignant plasma cells and determine, via analysis. So, we do the karyotype, chromosomal studies, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies, immunohistochemistry studies, and molecular studies. All of these studies are looking for specific genetic changes in the myeloma cells—looking for translocations or deletions. And it's very important to get that information because we can put patients in a category of having standard-risk disease versus high-risk disease. And that can give us a better picture of what this patient's journey with myeloma may look like." TS 13:41 "When I used to work in lymphoma, I spoke with the physicians who were lymphoma specialists, and they said that they foresee a future in having these assays that detect circulating tumor cells actually take the place of imaging studies like restaging positron-emission tomography (PET), computed tomography (CT) scans. So, it's really amazing, these tests that are on the market now and maybe not as widespread as we'd like, but there's a lot of nice assays out there that will become more popular and used more commonplace in the future that I think are going to help identify myeloma more precisely. ... If you think about myeloma, even with measurable residual disease (MRD), MRD for leukemia, for lymphoma, you take a blood sample, you test it for MRD. For myeloma, you need a bone marrow biopsy. You need a bone marrow sample. You can't do MRD on a blood sample for myeloma. Not yet. But if we perfect these assays and we can eventually detect this, then you're looking at a whole new ballgame. You can even perfect your MRD testing as well. So, it's a very exciting time for some of these heme malignancies." TS 28:09

In this episode, Dr. Jockers breaks down how everyday food choices quietly drive pain and inflammation — and how small shifts can create real relief. You'll learn why blood sugar spikes, poor-quality fats, and constant eating keep the body stuck in an inflammatory state. This sets the foundation for understanding what truly calms chronic pain.   You'll discover which foods actively reduce inflammation and which "healthy" options may actually make symptoms worse for certain people. The conversation explores protein, fats, fruits, and vegetables through a practical lens, helping you rethink how meals are built without rigid dieting rules.   The episode also dives into meal timing, digestion, and simple strategies that help the body heal between meals. Along the way, you'll uncover overlooked tools — from herbs to fermented foods — that support recovery while leaving room to personalize what works best for your body.   In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction to Nuts and Seeds 00:20 Podcast Introduction and Episode Overview 03:22 Key Strategies to Reduce Pain and Inflammation 15:14 Best Anti-Inflammatory Foods 24:53 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   If you want to burn belly fat…boost your energy levels…balance blood sugar…or relieve swelling in your legs or feet… Then you need to check out PureHealth Research immediately.   This company makes some amazing health-boosting supplements that are manufactured right here in America.   They only use natural, non-GMO ingredients that are backed by the latest science and proven to work.   And right now, you can save 35% on all of their products with this special subscriber-only offer.

Working with a client with osteoporosis and managing their expectations can be challenging as a Pilates instructor or personal trainer. Client's are often not given much guidance by their medical professional and are left on their own to figure out if their current workout routine is helpful or potentially dangerous. Our job is to keep them safe while doing our best to slow, halt or reverse their condition. In this episode we discuss strategies for minimizing risky moves like loaded flexion while working to improve posture, strength and bone density. We hope this conversation provides a starting point for better program design for your clients with osteoporosis.Moving Conversation Socials  Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions: Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6  Email: movingconvos@gmail.com IG: @movingconvos FB: Moving Conversations  Brian IG: @fit4lifedc FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/   Nora IG: nora.s.john.7 FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7

Today we are lookinga back and repeating a hot topic we discussed back in May. We are wading into a very controversial topic, osteoporosis, where guidelines for exercise tend to be vague at best. Today we touch on what it is, some general guidelines and ways to keep clients active when flexion and rotation are contraindicated. Join the conversation to see if we can make progress at developing a better answer for clients who are recently diagnosed and trying to figure out how to stay active. This is part 1, in next week's session, we discuss programming and client management strategies.Moving Conversation Socials  Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions: Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6  Email: movingconvos@gmail.com IG: @movingconvos FB: Moving Conversations  Brian IG: @fit4lifedc FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/   Nora IG: nora.s.john.7 FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7

What if everything we needed to know about what to eat was already written in the Bible?Jordan Rubin—bestselling author, health rebel, and co-founder of Ancient Nutrition—almost didn't make it past 19 thanks to Crohn's disease and a cancer diagnosis. But he discovered biblical health, an easy diet change that saved his life and is now changing millions of others.
