Introduction and Foot Masterclass 

There is so much wisdom in pain and injury. Pain is evidence for change and the opportunity for transformation. The victory is in the process, not the outcome. It’s time to step into your integrity. It’s time to be courageous and fearless in your pursuit of exploration. You have the ability to trust your body again. You have the power to find balance. You can unleash the warrior that lives within you. That is the process of finding yourself. That is the process of movement discovery. This podcast will help you release the warrior within, to build resiliency, to trust yourself, and to have the confidence to move through life with unapologetic authenticity.

What type of movement should I do? Is there a “perfect” end all, be all exercise regimen? Too often we reach out to others for answers that are within us. Your body knows what it needs if only you were willing to sit with and learn from the pain and discomfort you are trying to get rid of. In this very first episode of Rooted in MVMNT, our host Matthew is sharing the questions we really should be asking ourselves. When was the last time you took action on something you learned at a seminar or podcast like this? How about the last time you were in pain, how long did you sit with the intention to learn from it?  Everything you feel is information. The vision of this podcast is to give you the tools to be empowered to take action with the confidence to move through life with unapologetic authenticity. Whether you take on that challenge is up to you.   01:00 Accomplishing anything well requires effort. 02:15 Are you listening to what your body needs? 04:40 What can we learn from pain? 07:00 How do you reduce the likelihood of injury, or get rid of chronic pain? 10:30 The mindset shift that needs to happen in order to get out of the rut you’re currently in. 12:00 What kind of movement makes you feel good? 14:50 Your body knows what it needs, trust yourself enough to listen to it. 17:00 What type of movement am I “supposed” to be doing?    Check out this book mentioned in the episode:  Man’s Search for Meaning - Viktor Frankl   ……………………………………   Connect with Matthew Zanis and check out how to work with him:   Follow Rooted in MVMNT on Instagram | @rootedinmvmnt Website | https://rooted-in-mvmnt.mykajabi.com/ Order the  Foot Health Course  Schedule a  Remote Movement Assessment
