On this episode, I share with you a mind-blowing concept for me…. why stretching is a stretch…why stretching doesn’t really work and why you can stretch and stretch and stretch without much improvement in how you feel.

Have you noticed how  even though you stretch your body, tension, discomfort, pain, still persists? I totally have! What are the most common areas of tension for you? For most people,  me included, tension commonly involves your neck, shoulders, back and hips.

I know it feels temporarily good and yummy to stretch and then what? It doesn’t last for long……back to the discomfort, right? With all of the anatomy and with all of the physiology that we learned back in med school, it was amazing to me to learn many decades later just what was up with stretching.

You will learn the relationship between stress and muscular tension and how you can do the opposite of stretching by utilizing the concepts of somatic movements to unravel the knots in your muscles and feel in your body like you do on vacation! Calm and relaxed.
