Struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, irritability, anger, toxic stress or pain? One of the most effective ways to deal with mood disorders, trauma and pain is to work on your mind muscle connection. Too many of us are walking around without feeling our feet and the muscles that work to help us move. When your mind is connected to your muscles you are able to engage more muscles, which in turn reduces anxiety, depression, irritability and pain as endorphins are released and blood flow improves. Connecting your mind to your muscles results in better body results that last longer. In this episode Dr. Jannine Krause breaks down how you break through trauma with exercise in an interview with her Crossfit coach Meredith Beard.
