Did you know 17-53% of the population experience anxiety during relaxation and meditation? Jill Miller, author of Body by Breath and The Roll Model, and the co-founder of Tune Up Fitness, speaks about bringing awareness to breathing and what it means to modulate the nervous system according to different experiences throughout life. While explaining the autonomic nervous system, Jill describes the three zones of breathing and how they are manipulated through times of digestion and healing to exertion and through emergency situations. Furthermore, she discusses diaphragmatic tension through the context of "sucking in the stomach" and pregnancy changes. Then, she dives into the role of interception and how breath relates to both short-term and long-term pain. Finally, she explains relaxation-induced anxiety and how working on fascial tissue can leverage motility around the respiratory muscles and allow for relaxation. Let's dive in!

We've talked a lot on this podcast about the selfie sermon: the kind of iPhone video native to Instagram influencers. Easily weaponized by conspiritualists, this sermon is equal parts intimate confessional, prophecy download, and motivational coaching, directly transmitted from your favorite self-anointed maverick expert. Social media seems perfectly designed for such hypnotic performances and spiritual darshans. But in the brick-and-mortar world, yoga teachers have long blurred the line between acting and teaching, space holding and theater, and ritual ceremony and fitness. If all the world's a stage, as Shakespeare had it, the wooden planks of the yoga studio—and the digital platforms built in ether—demand that teachers embrace a role, adopt a script, and sell a story to their audience. What we want to know is: where does the performance end and yoga begin, or perhaps more to the point, is there even a difference?Our guest host today is Jill Miller, who many listeners will know from her hugely influential body of work in yoga and movement as founder of Tune-Up Fitness. She's also a former actor, which played an important role in her transition to full-time yoga instructor. We're going to start today with an excerpt from her 2017 TED-style talk that she gave in Toronto titled, “Lights, Camera, Yoga."

Jill Miller is a mentor I've admired for years and I'm excited to have her back on the show talking about soft rolling, fascia, medicinal advancements in rolling and more.

Self-Care does not equal beauty practices and services. It's available to all. Its goal is to give you the tools and resources you need to have the impact you feel inspired to make.2- The most important way to practice self-care is to be in a deeper relationship with your nervous system to recognize when you are edging towards depletion, so you can put extra strategies in place before you are burned out. These strategies can include yoga, physical activities, breath, meditation, diet, sleep, and more.3- Boundaries are another way to practice self-care: recognizing what you can say yes to, sustainably, and learning to offer an honest no when it's not sustainable for you. Get in the habit of saying I'll get back to you, so you can truly feel into it.4- Organization is another tool that will help you manage your life, schedule, and energy input and output. It will show you a clear picture of where and how you need to create spaciousness in your life.5- Find the choices you have available to you within your current circumstances and make the choice that supports you to show up the best way you can.QUESTIONS SHE ANSWERED DURING THIS EPISODE:Self-Care is a buzzword. Why do you think we still need to have this conversation… to continue to talk about it?What is self-care for you?In contrast, what is promoted as self-care, that might not really be it?What are some examples of self-care practices that would be available to all?ABOUT OUR GUESTAfter teaching yoga for ten years, Mado met her fairy godmother business coach.

ADULT CONVERSATION: Real talk - I had never even heard of the pelvic floor until my colleague, Molly Sommerhalder, told me she was leaving her job in public relations to start a business that focused on strengthening the pelvic floor! And from talking to Molly, I learned how common it is to have issues with the pelvic floor. In fact, 27% of women 40 to 59 will experience a pelvic floor issue or condition. Once I heard that, I knew more women would benefit from hearing about what she teaches. And some of the symptoms could be: Constant need to urinate Uncontrolled release of bowel or urine during daily activities Painful sex  Vaginal dryness or imbalance Tight or loose pelvic floor muscles Feeling like your pelvic floor is hanging low Molly is the proud founder of Swan in the Lotus, Yoga and Wellness. She's a woman's embodiment coach and a yoga teacher. She's on 50 Shades of Kay to answer your questions and share what she has learned on her lifelong journey to healing her high-toned pelvic floor.

Obviously, she was wrong. In 2015, she completed her first teacher training through YogaWorks under the mentorship of Chrissy Carter and has been teaching full time since. After almost ten years practicing yoga, and only yoga, she developed pain in her hips. More yoga and passive stretching didn't help. Instead, she had to completely rethink her practice, and therefore her teaching, to give her body more strength and stability. This led Markella on a path of discovery, advanced education in anatomy, kinesiology, and biomechanics, and further training. Now she helps people move and feel better while doing the practice they love and in their daily lives. Her teaching style is grounded, light-hearted, and rooted in resilience and exploration. You can connect with her at markellalos.com or on Instagram.

Faust and his wife, Jill Miller, co-founded Tune Up Fitness in 2009. Stay In Touch With Jill and Robert Episode 58 with Jill Miller Book Website Facebook Instagram YouTube Show Notes We change this up a bit this week and begin by talking about how Jill Miller met her husband, Robert Faust. Prior to fitness, Robert’s background was in the entertainment and marketing industry, and so his expertise combined with Jill's creativity made for the perfect partnership, both in life and business. We begin by talking about the importance of our intellectual property (IP) and how we can often feel pressured to give our content away for free in exchange for the “opportunity” and “exposure.”Robert reminds us of the importance of remembering the hard work and hours of research and practice that you put into your programs and products, and that it is always good to get advice when these types of opportunities come your way. Intellectual Property can be broken apart, and so Robert also invites us to look at all aspects of the content we own, to future proof our work and our future career, that we all have worked so hard to create. It is always good to have everything written down, so there is nothing left to chance. We talk about how we can expand our reach and do great things in the world, doing something for the greater good but not the expense of our own health and happiness. We explore the poverty mindset that often comes with being a creative and the importance of facing our money stories and beliefs around finances and success. We go into how our self-worth will contribute to how we view our worth in the world, and that this is work we all need to do to be able to find the balance between giving to others and taking care of ourselves. We move to talk about the "free" culture, and how it is essential to look at how you can inspire others and grow your profile without giving "everything" away. I talk about why I do the podcast and how we can all create content that ties back to you, your purpose, and how you want to impact the world for good. We discuss how Robert and Jill try and balance, work, family, children, and life. I love the honesty of this part of our conversation and how it can be challenging to balance passion, purpose, and self-care. Jill talks about the balance between creativity and productivity and how it can sometimes be hard to find, especially when it comes to motherhood. Robert reminds us of the importance of planning. He believes that a lot of people fail to plan out their vision and understand the steps and milestones that it takes to accomplish their goals. He invites us to also look at what it takes to work backward and come up with just a few first steps that will get you closer to that next milestone. When we plan it helps us build both the confidence and competence to reach our dream goals. Jill reminds us that in addition to being strategic and doing the marketing, we also need to have people around us, who believe in us, and who will give us a chance to put our work out in the world. Our creativity and ideas cannot only happen in our heads, but the place where they will grow into their potential is out in the world as we beta test our materials. We wrap up the show talking about the importance of being authentic, as this way when you share your unique voice, the right people will find you. Robert also reminds us to credit the people who we have learned from. Once again, it is the ripple effect and allows us all to remember that the world is big enough for us all to succeed.

  If you've been doing a few minutes on a rower and half-ass rolling on a piece of foam for your recovery, you may have already figured out it's not enough.   Our guest this week, Jill Miller, founder of Tune Up Fitness and author of The Roll Model, said it perfectly, "Healing happens in our restorative state".    Your body is an adaptive machine.    If you want to get stronger and faster, you need to put the same amount of attention on how your recover if you truly want to be able to access the most out of your body and training.   We spoke with Jill about how we can better prepare our bodies to push hard and stay healthy while training by recovering better.    Although Jill's background is in the yoga world, the information she shares goes far beyond warrior poses and OMing. She has an amazing amount of knowledge of the human body and has developed tools and practices on self care, particularly with fascial work and mobility.    In this episode, Jill shares her strategies and translates some the science behind down regulation, recovery, and how we can optimize and train our bodies to recover faster and more efficiently. Her information is as unique as it is important for hard-charging athletes.    You'd do well to tune in and listen.    Lastly, be sure to check out Jill's therapy self-massage tools and Yoga Tune Up programs designed to help you recover from training more effectively, relieve pain and stress, and improve balance and strength at her website here.  daily.barbellshrugged.com/tuneupfitness   Enjoy the show, Mike

This "How I Broke Into" interview is filled with stories of courage and self-discovery, and provides tremendous insight into how a global brand can result from the initial efforts of one person’s decision to forge a new path. Here are notes from the show: Jill's love of yoga and fitness began early on. She has a love/hate relationship with business--she grew up in a solar community and her family's business was solar. She worked in the family business from a young age. As a child, Jill was on the standard American diet, was overweight, teased, scrutinized. She discovered Jane Fonda's Workout and Raquel Welch's Yoga Program (Total Beauty and Fitness). She discovered how important a teacher, even one on video, is. But she overdid t with the videos and became anorexic. We discussed "The Best Little Girl in the World" (1981) with Jennifer Jason Leigh (I wrongly said it starred Ally Sheedy). Anorexia/Bulimia is the #1 cause of death in teenage girls. For Jill, falling in love led to a path to self-love. She started studying shiatsu while attending Northwestern University, and this led to healing. The Coregeous Ball is part of her product line; it's a soft, grippy pliable ball meant for self-healing. She never planned to teach. But she was inspired by her mentor Glenn Black at the Omega Institute. Shortly before 9/11, she decided to explore teaching. She enrolled in the 200 hour Teaching Program for yoga. She felt inhibited by the rigidity of the teaching program's failure to take time for body and tissue sense. She started to change the way she taught. Jill became known for her lateral abdominal churning--Nauli Kriya--and had an 8 page spread in Yoga Journal. Her mother worked for JetBlue, which has a family program of flights all over the U.S. Jill offered to fly to yoga studios all over the country. "I had balls. And now I have a ball products business." She does compassionate cadaver labs with Gil Hedley so movement educators can see the anatomy on the inside. Yoga Tune Up does not stay in the yoga space. Center for Pain Rehabilitation - Mitchell Prywes, MD, Danbury, CT Hospitals are finally embracing all parts of well-being. Tune Up Fitness has 500 teachers worldwide. Jill's husband Robetr is a serial entrepreneur. 6 months into dating, he came to a 3 hour core workshop and couldn't believe how fast it flew by. He said, "We need to bottle this." The collapse of her mother and step-father's business made Jill reticent to build a business. She licenses materials and products globally. The Roll Model is being translated into other languages. "Self care health care." She has shared perspective with Dr. Kelly Starrett, best-selling author Becoming a Supple Leopard and Katy Bowman, author of Move Your DNA. She doesn't quite feel like she's arrived yet. We discussed the school system and deskbound kids. She recommended Starrett's Deskbound: Standing Up to a Sitting World.  I mentioned how much I enjoyed Starrett's appearance in 30 Days of Genius on Creative Live, in which he mentioned Jill. She did programs on breath, fascia, and pre-natal fitness for Creative Live. "We met at a time when all of us were trying to reach people." Robert is her business backbone, loves building businesses. It's scary to go along with new initiatives. Jill knew, in writing her first book, that she need to capture the soft-tissue soft tool market, so she did The Roll Model instead of a book on breath. That will be her second book. She has become known as a go-to expert in the field of fascia. She is impressed with Wim Hof's breathing method. Her daily practice involves soft tissue self-care, walking, range-of-motion exercises. Josh Landis is a strength and conditioning coach that has been helpful.
