S2:16 The One About Relaxation With Shelly Prosko

What if relaxation is less than relaxing? What if you hate the word "relax" and what works for others doesn't work for you? We recorded this podcast on the most stress-filled Tuesday, also known as Election Day. But don't worry, we didn't get political, and we DID offer two calming meditations right there in the podcast. We talked a lot about what relaxation is and isn't for different people, and you're going to love our guest expert's take on this topic! Shelly Prosko is a physiotherapist, yoga therapist, educator, author and pioneer of PhysioYoga with over 20 years of experience integrating yoga into physiotherapy within a variety of specialty areas including helping people with chronic or persistent pain, pelvic health issues and professional burnout.
