Health and athletic performance have been a passion of mine since early adulthood. For the first 17 years or so, all my ideas were all dead wrong. Low-fat, high-carb, vegetarianism, polyphasic sleep. All terrible ideas. Then came the Paleo diet and lifestyle and with it success. Now I think I'm less likely to be dead wrong, and more likely to be incomplete. Katy Bowman is a witty writer I've been following for several years. I wrote to Katy her telling her about Nourish Balance Thrive and how her ideas might help me to do a better job as a coach. Katy is unique in her analysis of movement and how it affects genetic expression and cellular life. Quite possibly a missing piece! With radical, science-based health directives, Katy is taking the health-and-wellness world by storm with her bold “exercise is not movement” platform. A biomechanist by training and a problem-solver at heart, she has helped thousands reduce chronic pain, increase bone density, and improve metabolic health through movement and proper alignment. In addition to writing for her award-winning, and science-y blog KatySays.com, she is a regular source for national health publications and is regularly featured on radio, television talk shows and news segments. Creator of the Aligned and Well™ DVD series, Katy’s groundbreaking work in pelvic floor restoration has made her particularly popular with midwives, OBGYNs, and others concerned with pelvic mobility, strength, and health. Her books, Every Woman’s Guide to Foot Pain Relief: The New Science of Healthy Feet (2011) and Alignment Matters (2013), have been critically acclaimed and translated worldwide. Her most anticipated book, Move Your DNA: Restore Your Health Through Natural Movement, was released in the autumn of 2014.
