Lauren Leavell joins me for today’s episode. She is a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and fitness instructor with a mission to make fitness and movement more inclusive and accessible. She believes that movement should be enjoyed and used as a way of reconnecting with your body.
Lauren talks about why finding a form of movement that is health promoting is important, myths in the fitness industry about forms of exercise, and shares her advice for someone who wants a better relationship with movement. Then, Lauren provides first steps for someone who is starting to increase their movement and finding what works for their lifestyle to ensure they have a positive experience. Last, Lauren describes situations where body movement should not be incorporated in someone’s wellness journey and how to identify red flags when searching for a fitness program, trainer, or gym.
If you currently or have previously struggled with body movement, don’t feel connected to a gym in your area, or can’t find the motivation, this episode is a must listen!
