Let your movement be your medicine

We are all deficient in movement, whether we are athletic or not. Because movement and exercise are two different things: it is not by going to the gym or running every Sunday that you move in the sense that Katy Bowman means. In this revolutionary book, she demonstrates that every day, for our health, the smallest part of our body must move. We should move ten times more, and more evenly, as our hunter-gatherer ancestors did. The gap between what we physically achieve today and what our body is capable of has become immense. This lack of movement has a considerable impact on all our tissues, our bones, our muscles to our cells. Like junk food, it gradually locks us into pain and chronic illness. Regain health through natural movement Katy Bowman appeals to natural movement, daily and regular movement. To succeed in our transition to a less sedentary life and a more functional body, it offers more than 40 exercises aimed at correcting our alignments, our posture, our adhesions, the mobility of our joints... And provides valuable advice to help us change our habits so that we move more and above all that we move better! The Origins collection looks at the way of life of our hunter-gatherer ancestors and their modern heritage. By exploring who we were, where we come from, we better understand the origin of the ailments from which we suffer and what should be done to prevent them.
