Today you learn the secret to the uncanny success my clients experience when it comes to getting rid of annoying pain and ultimately KEEPING the pain away!

The secret???  HYDWYDWYDI!!!

What's that mean?  It means what's really important when it comes to remodeling and rewiring your posture for a pain free, active, and energetic life is…

How You Do What You Do When You Do It!

It's about EVERY MOMENT!  This moment to moment awareness of living your life with maximum effeciency and maximum congruence or alignment of your joints is what allows your brain to "rewire" your movement pathways for smooth, integrated movement!

Yes, you can accomplish some significant rewiring with a daily exercise routine and I prescribe corrective exercise for everyone!  

BUT nothing compares to rewiring HYDWYDWYDI when it comes to remodeling and rewiring your posture for protection from disc injuries, sciatica, arthritic degenerative disease, carpal tunnel, plantar fascitis, and all the other completely preventable and often even reversable life-stealing conditions!

Enjoy this screencast that goes over some simple corrections to some of the common movements that "chew up" your joints when done incorrectly.

Be sure to let me know if these help you and what else you'd like to know how to do without injuring yourself by leaving a comment below!  Thanks!!

A few episodes back I got some good suggestions for future videos and today I respond to Maggie May who wanted to know the best way to lift and carry a child.

Young mothers (and fathers, and grandparents) should ALL watch this video so if you know anyone who's regularly lifting a child (or anything else for that matter) everyday…share this with them!!

Remember…"little hinges swing big doors"!  And today's "little hinge" is a very important one for saving millions of backs and necks across the world!!

Be sure to leave a comment to let me know what you think of the video and also let me know what activity of daily living YOU would like to see covered on an upcoming episode!

Until next time…Happy "pulsing"!!

Pay really close attention to this video because it helps you avoid  the most toxic movement program ever…"The lift and twist" with a flexed or "rounded" spine. 

Snow shoveling is a classic example of a disc blowing maneuver that can put you on the road to be grumpy, disabled, and eventually a burden to everyone around you!!! 

AND NOBODY WANTS THAT!

Every moment of every day can be a highly effective, pain relieving, spine sparing exercise if you pay attention to…

HOW YOU DO WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOU DO IT!
