When it comes to exercising our bodies, we have to navigate the similar dogma that pervades the nutrition world where the obsession with “diet” and “weight loss” dominates the conversation.  The impetus for moving our bodies needs to go way beyond burning calories, thinner thighs and 6 pack abs.  We need to embrace the depth of benefits that comes when we learn to coordinate and control our bodies in ways that activate the full healing capacity of this incredible organism that we occupy.
