'Mindfulness' is one of those words that can sound really out there, but improving mind-body awareness can have a profound impact on how you experience the world and your sense of security in your body.

Jenn Pilotti is a GMB Trainer who's been coaching for well over a decade and just has a ton of education and experience under her belt. She's just released a new book, Body Mind Movement: An evidence-based approach to mindful movement, which is aimed at giving professional trainers the tools to develop mindfulness in their clients.

In this episode, Jenn and Ryan cover:

  • the importance of spatial awareness in daily life
  • how movement practice extends to other areas of your life
  • why interoception is crucial to autoregulation
  • how to work with pain, fear and failure
  • practical examples for better, mindful movement and increased focus

Though the book is aimed at coaches, you don't have to be a trainer to use these concepts in your own practice and workouts. If you want to move better and feel better while you move, you'll want to stick this in your earhole.
