“Mindful movement turns exercise into a conversation, not a demand.”

Have you ever finished a workout and realized you barely paid attention to what your body was doing?? Like your mind was racing through a to-do list while your body went through the motions? In this episode of The Exercise Experiment, we’re slowing things down and tuning in.

Mindful movement isn’t just about being present. It’s about listening to your body and respecting what you hear. Whether it’s pushing a little harder when you have energy or permitting yourself to rest when you need it, mindful movement is a game-changer for building a sustainable and joyful relationship with exercise.

If you're tired of pushing through pain, feeling disconnected, or just treating workouts like another box to check, this episode is your invitation to move differently.

  • What is mindful movement really about?
  • When pushing through pain backfires
  • How I learned mindful movement through hiking
