Hi Reader! December is the perfect month for giving—and I’m sharing a gift that might be a little unexpected. If you or someone you care about struggles with sciatic pain, today I want to give you a little twist (or shall I say a side bend) on a classic move. Sometimes, the best way to ease pain is to disrupt the usual routine and find your own path to relief. Is your sciatic nerve cranky right now—sending fiery, burny, sharp pain down your leg? I’ve got a playful, effective way to address it: what I’m calling a disruptive move for sciatic nerve relief. Meet Pelvis Presley—my new sidekick making their debut on camera! Pelvis and I are here to help you explore your sciatic nerve in a fun, informative way. Think of it as a “swiveling sciatica” experience—your nerve gets to move in a new direction, side to side, instead of just the usual forward and back. Here’s the video in a nutshell:
Then, don’t miss watching the second exercise—it’s a playful side-bend that shows your nerve a whole new way to move! The goal? Awareness. Understanding where your nerve lives, what movements help, and how small changes can make a big difference. Try it for yourself, and then hit reply to let me know how it feels! Here’s to giving yourself the gift of movement and relief this December. Stay well and happy moving, Lisa P.S. Swivelling Sciatica has made its on-camera debut, thanks to Pelvis Presley. Hopefully your sciatic nerve doesn’t start singing—but if it swivels, that’s a win in my book. P.S.S. Ready to move with confidence and ease your pain?

Happy Sunday Reader, You can’t watch the Olympics without seeing it. Athletes arriving with their teammates.Coaches leaning in during tense moments.Training staff standing quietly in the background. And then the cameras pan to the stands. You see the proud parents of Connor McDavid during the men’s hockey game.Spouses. Partners. Families. People who have traveled across the world simply to say,“We’re with you.” Community is everywhere. And it makes me pause. Because while most of us aren’t...
Hi there, Independence matters. But so does connection. This week I shared a short video on Instagram (and Youtube) about how movement changes when we share it with someone else. 👉 Watch it here:https://youtube.com/shorts/cq99k9CvKEs?feature=share When we move in community, we build more than strength. We build accountability.Confidence.Momentum. And that’s exactly what happens inside Mindful Movement. Let me be clear about what it is — and what it isn’t. Mindful Movement isn’t another...
GLP-1s (glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists) are being talked about everywhere right now — often as a way to speed up results.

These medications—originally developed for diabetes and metabolic health—are now part of mainstream culture....
