(not interested in a MONTH OF MORNING MOVEMENT? Scroll down a bit so you can opt-out of these MMM promotional emails) Hey Reader, Today my brand new A Month of Morning Movement program started. I've been excited for this one for awhile, mostly because I created it by request based on a survey I sent out a few months ago about what folks wanted for their daily movement practice. I don't know if you filled out that survey, but I have a hunch this program piqued your curiosity. Maybe even your interest. So I'm sending you the third class from A Month of Morning Movement, a 13 minute spinal mobility practice to make your shoulders and back feel really good. Because even when you have an absolute bonkers day, if you want to move, you can. I hope you enjoy this small taste of what A Month of Morning Movement is like. If you do choose to sign up, you'll also get 8 minute yoga flows, 15 minute strength training sets, 10 minute core focused practices, and 15 minute mellow movement. If you're ready to get back into a movement groove, A Month of Morning Movement will make it ridiculously easy for you. Short, fun, accessible classes, delivered to your inbox every day for 31 days. It really doesn't get easier than that. Unless I was with you at your house. Consider this a much more affordable and accessible alternative 😉 Click here to join A Month of Morning Movement! And check out my pricing options -- created with all budgets in mind. See you on the mat soon! Naomi |

Hey Reader, I love core work. I might be in the minority and believe me, I get it. Core work is not easy. But getting stronger is also not easy. And while core work won't help me build bone density or help me build the larger muscle groups of my body, doing core work helps in other ways: More trunk stability when I'm doing heavier lifts More support and stability through functional movement like walking, running, twisting, and picking up my kids Moving with more ease generally There are...
Hey Reader, This morning, I woke up early to move my body like I always do. I am a person who has a daily movement practice, which is a little bit abnormal. Apparently only around 20% of women (according to a 2024 study) have an intentional daily movement practice. I like moving my body. It's also my job to teach people how to do it. And lots of evidence points to the fact that a regular (if not daily) movement practice, including resistance training and cardio, is important for health,...
Hey Reader, Last week I talked about how there's a lot of really bad advice out there when it comes to answering the question, "how do people find time to exercise?" Part of the problem is that lots of folks see exercise as an all or nothing endeavor. If you can't do a "full workout" it's not worth it. Except science doesn't back that up. Current science suggests that small bursts of movement or exercise are as beneficial as longer workouts. The point is to keep moving as you get older,...
