Movement is Medicine

from The Black Massage Therapist · host Pauline Blackwood

Today's episode is a shout out about how wonderful physical movement is for the mind the body and the spirit. Movement truly is medicine and Motion truly is lotion. Healing begins with a little sweat. For those who worry about pain, body image, fitness and joy, finding a way of moving can be a struggle, but with the greatest kindness, I urge you to do just that. From the artist that creates a soundtrack to create to. To the gardener in a high rise that potters about with houseplants. To the factory worker on their morning walk to work with favourite music on headphones. To the commuter on the tube taking the steps. 2 left feet can still have a right to dance. Dance, stroll, wheel, play, climb, crawl if you haven't already. Maybe you'll find your tribe. Maybe you'll start your tribe. It's never too late or too early.   Today's show was made with less noise because of  http://github.com/Rikorose/DeepFilterNet and open source software.
