Redefining Exercise with Emma Marshall (Bite Size)

In this bite size episode with Tales To Inspire, Emma Marshall delves into the transformative power of movement for overall wellbeing. Emma asserts that any form of movement serves as a reminder of our vitality, aligning with the innate nature of mammals constantly in motion. In contrast, modern lifestyles tether individuals to sedentary habits, adversely affecting both physical and mental health.   Emma challenges the prevailing concept of exercise, advocating for the simplicity of movement—walking, dancing, and cycling—as vital elements of daily life. She underscores the need for a societal shift to redefine exercise, urging people to embrace movement beyond conventional gym-centric practices. Drawing inspiration from Blue Zones, Emma emphasises that the healthiest societies seamlessly integrate movement into daily activities, including dance and walking. In her dance teaching methodology, Emma prioritises self-expression over choreography, aiming to reconnect individuals with the sheer joy of movement.   She posits dance, as a primal and tool-free form of expression, as a bridge between mind and body. Emma encourages listeners to reassess their perception of exercise, urging them to embrace movement as an intrinsic and holistic component of overall well-being.  Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/emma.the.alchemist/ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/movementismedicine.uk/ Website: https://movementismedicine.uk/
