Exercising with purpose is better than exercising with intensity. Most of our ailments come from mental and emotional self-abuse than physical.
Ever thought about how movement can heal the mind and body? Nathan’s story on the Voices In Recovery Podcast is a testament to just that. Battling addiction, Nathan discovered the transformative power of purposeful movement. His journey didn’t just lead him to personal recovery but also to a career in movement therapy, helping others find healing through mindful exercise. Nathan's book, 'MYOfascial Exercise: For the Modern Day', encapsulates his dedication to this approach.
In this episode, Nathan delves into the concept of 'ketosis of the thoracic'—the adverse effects of prolonged sitting—and how slow, intentional movement can significantly improve overall health. He argues that exercising with purpose trumps exercising with sheer intensity. Nathan also sheds light on the role of fascia in maintaining posture, the difference between voluntary and involuntary nervous systems, and why judging health by appearance can be misleading.
Nathan’s insights emphasize that movement is crucial for both physical and mental well-being, especially in addiction recovery. His story is one of resilience and hope, illustrating how purposeful movement can be a cornerstone in the journey to sobriety. Tune in to hear Nathan’s inspiring journey and learn how mindful movement can transform lives.
