Joyful movement in exercise routines! How to move your body in a sustainable and empowering way!

Written By Elizabeth Harris

Are you having a hard time enjoying your exercise routine because you feel pressured to do and achieve more?

Moving your body is supposed to be a gentle and kind process to enrich the quality of your life. But sometimes we forget why we actually want to move because of diet culture and the pressure to achieve the “ideal body type”.

Welcome to episode 17 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast. Today, we’re talking about improving your relationship with movement and embracing a more joyful approach.

We are also sharing some of the red flags and warning signs that may show up if you’re experiencing an unhealthy relationship with movement.

It’s empowering to move our body and get stronger, but it’s also important to have the right mindset and goals when it comes to fully enjoying the benefits of exercise.

Let’s rebrand wellness together!
