On today's episode I am joined with Erica Hornthal. Erica is a dance and movement therapist and licensed clinical professional counselor. She is also known as the "Therapist Who Moves You. "
Erica is also the Author of a new book Body Aware, a step-by-step journey how a mindful movement practice can slow down thoughts to lessen anxiety and panic and impact how and what we feel.
When we talk about movement, most of us think "exercise". But the way we move our bodies, how we walk, roll, dance, stretch, stretch, connect, and take up space - is about so much more than physical fitness.
Erica shares about how our movements impact our mental health and wellbeing and when we change the way we move, we can change the way we experience life. She even shares a little gentle practice with us during the episode.
Body aware helps readers to learn and identify where they physically hold their emotions, understand and interpret their body's unique language, explore bodily sensations, identify emotional blockages and upgrade harmful thought cycles to patterns that instead foster resilience, emotional regulation, and productivity.  During the episode she even shares a gentle movement practice.
