Confession: I am NOT an exercise fan, and I've struggled over the years to stick to a daily routine. After my adolescent years and as I became a mom, it became harder and harder to make time for exercise. Then, in my 30s, I had a sense that I should be moving more and feeling terrible just wasn't normal. Fast-forward to my 40s and now, 50s, and I have found exercise routines that I enjoy, that keep me motivated, and that help me feel my best. In this episode, we're diving into all things exercise and the solution you may never have thought would help your headaches.
