260. Why Every Breast Cancer Survivor Should Try Pilates with Guest Nina Prol

In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Nina Prol, an experienced oncology nurse and SurvivingBreastCancer.org's  amazing Pilates instructor. Nina has been a vital part of our community, offering free, virtual Pilates classes that are accessible to anyone.

We dive into the benefits of Pilates, especially for those undergoing cancer treatment. Nina shared how Pilates can help manage the side effects of treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, and hormonal therapies by promoting gentle movement and honoring the body's capabilities. She introduced the concept of "exercise snacks," which are short, manageable bursts of exercise that can be easily incorporated into daily routines.

Welcome to the conversation.
