    <description><![CDATA[Our relationship with our bodies is as complex as any relationship between two people. The only difference is that when things get tough- pain, confusion, dysfunction- we can't burn bridges with our body, divorce it, or put it in a time-out. Not for long, anyway, without significant consequences. 

This podcast is part exploration, part "learn from my mistakes" documentation of my journey towards nurturing and healing my relationship with my body, and my experience working with other peoples' bodies. 

I am a human being fascinated with gait biomechanics, bodywork, and healing from chronic pain and injuries. I have history of anorexia, orthorexia, and exercise addiction. Years of my life have been wrapped up in my identity as a dancer, a career which ended with a string of injuries. These themes run through each episode as I share what I've come to experiencce as "true" (for now). 

I hope that some of what I share is helpful on your own journey towards a more nourishing relationship with your body- A liberated body, which becomes your vehicle for living a life that is meaningful for You.]]></description>
