I noticed this in the grocery store…

Hi there, So let’s start here… I was standing in the grocery store the other day—right at the checkout. You know that moment where you’re waiting in line, half-looking at the magazines, half-thinking about what you forgot to buy. And there it was. A Reader’s Digest issue… talking about AI. It caught my attention. Not because AI is new. But because of where it showed up. Right there. It made me pause for a moment. Because over the past few weeks, we’ve been talking about how technology has shaped the way we move. From Walkmans… And now—this. This is something I hear a lot: “I’m not sure about it.” And honestly, that makes sense. We’ve seen this before. New technology shows up… I ended up reading the article, and what I appreciated most is how it approached AI. Not as something you have to jump into… But something you can understand—and use—within your own comfort zone. From a movement perspective…this is where I think things get interesting. Because AI isn’t about replacing your body or your experience. It’s another tool. A way to ask better questions. But here’s the key: You don’t have to go all in. You don’t have to figure everything out. You can stay right where you are and simply be curious. So let me ask you this: What if AI wasn’t something to master but something to experiment with? Next week, I’m going to share something I’ve been working on. It’s simple. For now, if you’re curious, take a few minutes to read the article. And just notice what stands out.

Hi Reader, As we move into the thick of gardening season and spend more time outdoors tending to our yards, flower beds, and vegetable gardens, it can be helpful to ask ourselves a simple question: How am I preparing my body for these activities? For many people, gardening is a labour of love. We look forward to the warmer weather, the longer days, and the opportunity to get our hands in the dirt. What we don't always look forward to is how our bodies might feel afterward. A few hours of...
Reader, have you ever said… "My right knee is my bad knee." "My left shoulder is the problem." "My good hip is doing all the work." I hear comments like this all the time. And I understand what people mean. They're talking about the side that hurts. The side that feels stiff. The side they don't trust anymore. The side that doesn't seem to cooperate. And every time I hear someone describe their body this way, I find myself thinking the same thing: What if we're missing the point? Because...
Hi Reader, There’s something about June that draws us back outside.
