The Mind Body Project
After over a decade in the health and wellness industry, Aaron realized that our bodies change only short term unless our mindset changes for the long term. The two are forever linked and our bodies will follow to places where our mind takes it. We are continually building up new ideas and tearing down old ones in our construction zone we call our mind. Join Aaron each week as he shares ways to continually work on our infinite construction zone as well as sharing the construction zones of his guests.
