Building resilience through movement
The good news is that resilience is not a trait that you either have or you don’t. It’s a mental skill that can be strengthened through practice and over time. Let’s look at the resilient brain and then explore how it can be fortified by doing something that most of us love - moving.
A love letter to movement
I remember the early days.
Riding a tricycle around the black top at my preschool by the sea.
Doing the Mexican Hat Dance with my first dance teacher and my toddler brother chasing me.
Taking my first ballet class at 8 and performing in more Nutcrackers than I can remember.
Crushing the competition in the 4x100 relay at my elementary school’s Olympic Day.
The freedom.
The joy.
