Lots of love, Natalie x

Start saving your back immediately!

No, we're not talking about squatting. We're talking about a way to bend over that has nearly disappeared in our culture. And it could be one reason why back pain is so common in the U.S.

It may be an extreme message, but we can all agree on "moderation is key". Not only are devices such as phones and tablets affecting children's brains and behaviours, but posture and muscular imbalances are showing up too.

As adults and parents we should present ourselves as good role models and look at how our relationships / need / dependency with computers and devices affect us and our daily lives.

Now more so than ever we really need to take care of our bodies physically - and yes :-) on a daily basis !

How incredible is this ?!
I wonder whether we could convince New Zealand hospitals to do the same ?

Hospitals around the country are starting to grow food on their property to offer patients healthier meals. Boston Medical Center has become a leader in this trend by creating the first hospital-based rooftop farm in Massachusetts. As the largest rooftop farm in Boston, they can feed their community...

For all my exercise-lovers out there , there is always time for a gentle reminder that you should never push yourself to perform a pose, a movement, an exercise (regardless of whether you are at the gym or yoga studio).
Pushing yourself beyond your limits happens naturally and at a pace that suits your body. Go easy and protect your joints !

Warning: This article contains more physics than we’ve seen since high school. But yoga teacher Leah Sugerman happily dove into the science behind the controversial transition.

Did you know ? Sitting for long periods hugely impacts not only our long-term posture, but also affects our primary and accessory breathing mechanisms. If you don't already incorporate a regular stretching (think gentle backbends and sidebending stretches) routine, look into it - 10 minutes a day will make a huge change, plus it's a great time to slow down your breathing and tune into releasing stress.

A new study reports the rhythm of your breathing can influence neural activity that enhances memory recall and emotional judgement.

Not just great for the body....

Another study adds to the body of research showing how yoga is a boon for the aging mind as well as the body.

A fascinating read by Mark Greene and perhaps a topic most of us would take for granted.
As therapists we are very aware of how the body responds neurologically to physical treatment. But therapeutic effects aside... platonic touch is important and it is missing

Why are men avoiding even platonic contact and what damage is this causing them? Here's how we can heal the physical and emotional isolation of men.
