Although the world is becoming mostly sedentary, our bodies still require a wide variety of daily movements in order to work well. Many of us struggle to get regular exercise, but even that can fall short of nourishing the body from head to toe.

    The coughing podcast was great. I’ve got a cold and the cough is ramping up. I would have liked to have heard more about the pelvic floor involvement and some exercises to prepare it for coughing. Thanks for a great show.
