Today we'll begin our 21-Day Grounding: Body Awareness practice. The invitation for the month is to spend 1-minute each day, checking in and scanning what's being felt physically, emotionally and mentally. The way we'll do that is with a daily 1-minute body scan. Here an example of how you can do this body scan: 4 Helpful tips: Time of Day: If you know consistency is challenging for you, choose a specific time of the day! Set an alarm if you need to. Have a timer to help you track your time. Location: This can be done anywhere, so let go of your limits about only doing this practice on your cushion. Try it the shower or when you're cooking dinner. Doing more: For the 21 days, just stick to 1-minute. If you'd like to do more, great, aim for 21-days of consistent 1-minute grounding. Let go of perfection: This isn't about creating the perfect meditation. Let's just try being with what arises! There is no wrong way to do this practice.

Posture, posture correctors, standing desk height, and lumbar support are all topics that get a lot of attention. Sometimes it can be hard to know what is the most important after all. Submit your burning questions on all things desk ergonomics, workday health, posture, or tips on getting through a work day with pain below! Leave your questions for Dr. Leada below including— Are posture correctors worth the investment? What is the right height for my monitor? What should my elbows be like at the desk? How can I make using a standing desk more comfortable for my body? How can I best work with my sciatic pain? Leave your questions for Dr. Leada in the comments section below, and she'll be back to answer them all on 9/13 at 12 pm PST.

This month we've been exploring how our workouts and movement routines can help us experience not just physical changes, but mental, emotional and energetic transformation as well. When we practice presence and attuning to our inner experience, movement can open the gates to releasing trauma stored in the body, returning to a state of homeostasis and deep ease, and creating space for us to show up more authentically and fully in ALL that we are, in our workouts and in our daily lives. In this Ask Me Anything session, we will explore how to practice using movement as a tool to create a steady foundation within ourselves to show up more fully and take up SPACE in our daily lives. We'll discuss questions like: What are some simple embodiment practices to release fear and anxiety around showing up in my truth? Are there any breathing techniques that can help me feel more expansive and alive? What body postures might help me build confidence to not shrink my energy or myself around certain people? What does it look like to take up space when you’re in line at the grocery store? Drop any and all questions and topics you'd like to discuss below ,and I'll be back to answer and chat with you in the comments on Wed 10/27 at 9:30am PT!
