Pain doesn’t need a tough approach—it needs this


Reader,

Ever wonder how someone goes from being afraid to move…to confidently walking, stretching, bending—even hiking again?

That kind of transformation doesn’t happen overnight.

And it doesn’t come from “pushing through the pain.”

It comes from something smarter.

Something more supportive.

It comes from a process.

In Episode 4 of Move Smart, Feel Better, I’m sharing the exact 3-step method I use with my clients inside my signature virtual group program, Movement Rx—the same approach I’ve developed over 25 years of helping people move with more ease and confidence.

It’s not about pushing harder or doing more.

It’s about tuning in, working with your body, and moving in a way that feels safe, clear, and sustainable.

The 3 steps we’ll walk through are:

1. Awareness – Noticing where you are, what you feel, and what your body is communicating.

2. Articulation – Exploring the movements available at your joints (aka your “pure movement”) and what that reveals about your mobility.

3. Action – Personalized, supportive movement based on how your body moves and what feels right for you.

This framework is the foundation of everything I do with my clients.

And it works.

It’s how we move from pain to progress—without fear, force, or frustration.

🎥 Watch now and see how this process might just be the shift you’ve been looking for.

And if this resonates, stay tuned.

The next video is your personal invitation to go deeper inside Movement Rx.

Stay well and happy moving,

Lisa
