There are many reasons to eat organic foods, but this is a big one...

Eating more pesticide-laced produce increases exposure to dozens of pesticides, according to a nonprofit that publishes the “Dirty Dozen” list of contaminated foods.

I'm sharing info for a fantastic online pilates (with some yoga mixed in) class... the instructor, Kimberly, is so knowledgeable. ✨🧘🏻‍♀️🕉️

This class uses a skeletal structure (pun intended) that decompresses the spine,
by increasing spinal, as well as hip and shoulder girdle flexibility and range of motion
through full body strengthening, lengthening, and alignment.

Informing this class is my expertise in meeting participants 'where they are at’, individually and collectively, on a per class
basis along with safely teaching in the moment according to desires and needs.

Each session will include proper breathing and engagement, pelvic stabilization, ribcage stabilization, spinal extension, shoulder stabilization, hip flexor & add/abductor stabilization, spinal flexion and rotation, hip range of motion…
all to decompress strengthen and lengthen the spine.

As a 500+ hour certified yoga teacher, yoga therapist, I=MX Pilates and I=MX Spinal Pilates certified instructor, and former studio owner, I teach many styles and types of yoga to novice beginners through advanced students.
One of my most popular classes is an All Level Spinal Core, wherein I teach using my plethora of experience, education and certifications in Biomechanics, Yoga and Pilates.

BAYLOR UNIVERSITY PUBLISHES LARGEST STUDY EVER ON MASSAGE THERAPY USE

July 2024

"Many people receive massage therapy and for many reasons. But according to a new study – the largest and most comprehensive ever conducted on the subject – the prevalence of visits to massage therapists is higher than one might have imagined and the reasons may be surprising."

“What our study shows is that it’s probably not helpful any longer to label massage as an ‘alternative’ therapy, with all of the marginality that the term conveys.”

“Licensed massage therapists ought to be respected as mainstream practitioners, whose profession provides a therapeutic approach not just to address pain and functional challenges but to foster wellness and overall well-being, physical and emotional.

Everyone can benefit from working with a skilled massage therapist. They’re the hidden gems in the healthcare system.” - Jeff Levin, Ph.D., M.P.H., University Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health. (Robert Rogers/Baylor University)

Flip-flops are famously rough on the body and it's NOT just because they lack support. They encourage flexion of the toes (to hold the shoe to your foot) at a time in gait when you should be EXTENDING the toes. The result is compensation throughout the body, especially the neck.
