Strutting Your Way to Healthy Bones – New Year Edition!
Welcome to the recap of episode #4 of “Strutting Your Way To Healthy Bones!”
This is our very special, “What Do You Want Your Strut To Say In 2022?” edition. Before we dive in, here’s a little background info…
Strut Talk Runway Therapy founder Lolita Frazier is my partner in crime for this inspiring, educational Instagram Live series. This unique monthly virtual workshop is the perfect blend of bone health AND runway therapy. Bottom line? Lolita and I are on a mission to lift you up on days when you just don’t feel like yourself. Whether you’re a newly diagnosed breast cancer patient, thriver, or caregiver….all are welcome!
Lolita and I are dedicated to delivering love, community, and support when you feel all alone or uncertain. Rebuild your confidence and self-worth that you’ve lost along the way. Educate you about posture and bone health and the importance of standing stall and strutting through it! “Strutting Your Way to Healthy Bones” is a mind/body/soul journey, where one session builds upon the next.
Just in case you missed the first few episodes, you can catch them right here! Lolita and I literally turn your living rooms into virtual catwalks. I love this episode in particular because it’s a really unique blend of bone health education, healing movement and a mantra that you’re going to want to ready to yourself every single morning.
The Highlight Reel
We kicked things off with a chat about my latest, “Dear Cancer, I’m Beautiful” podcast episode which is a highlight reel of all of the most important bone health tips that I learned throughout the year as part of my special #BeautifulToTheBone series. To listen, just click this link.
Shout Out!
A big shout out to Amgen for making this special series possible! It’s been so much fun learning all about bone health, and I’ve had the best time meeting top experts and amazing bone health advocates right here in our amazing community!
Movement
Lolita showed us how to do a “wall angel.” This exercise helps strengthen your shoulder and back muscles while opening up tight chest muscles. Bottom line? It’s a powerful tool for improving your posture which is really good for your bones.
Mantra
Lolita is full of incredible wisdom and I LOVE her mantras. Be sure to read this one to yourself every morning! “You don’t need a new year to make a change. All you need is a new day.”
The Strut!
We closed out this special edition of, “Strutting Your Way To Healthy Bones” with one of Lolita’s amazing strut lessons, while talking about what your strut says about you. How you old yourself affects how you feel, and how others perceive you. She also reminded us of her strut checklist, to help you strut into each day with confidence and great posture which also contributes to good bone health:
🖤 Chin Up
🖤 Shoulders Back
🖤 Chest Out
🖤 Core Tight
🖤 Your Mind Right
That’s all I’m going to share for now, it’s up to you to go ahead and check it out for yourself! Watch it here https://youtu.be/y4ULZrO2UN4
In the meantime, mark your calendars for the next episode on Friday, February 11th at 4pm EST and lets all strut our way to healthier bones, one step at a time!
