EP. 83 - Dr. Bo Cicak | Is Modern Movement Destroying the Way We’re Meant to Live?
In this mind-expanding episode of the ALLSMITH Podcast, Bryce Smith sits down with Dr. Bo Cicak — the founder of ANIMA Movement Center and a modern-day philosopher of the body. Together, they dismantle the illusion that fitness and health are found solely in reps, metrics, and aesthetics.
Dr. Bo takes us on a journey back to the nervous system — the original operating system — and challenges the mainstream narrative around movement, posture, trauma, and performance. This conversation will make you question everything you thought you knew about how we’re supposed to move.
From primal restoration to nervous system liberation, Bryce and Dr. Bo explore how modern movement culture may actually be robbing us of the vitality, connection, and embodied freedom our ancestors once knew. They dive into the emotional toll of disconnection, the epidemic of chronic tension, and the power of reclaiming your own inner rhythm through presence, curiosity, and community.
This one isn’t just about how you move — it’s about who you’re becoming.
