It is through inquiring within that the initial awareness shift happens which allows us to take control of our health. We do a lot of things in our daily lives incorrectly unconsciously, until we become conscious of it. The good news is we’re not stuck in our old habits and ways forever - once we become conscious of them, this newly found awareness provides us with the ability to consciously optimize our efforts. This applies to physical movements such as squats as much as it does to skincare. For example, you may not realize that you are unconsciously tugging at your delicate under-eye skin area too roughly when applying your eye cream, but once you do become conscious of it, you can turn that around.Incorporating exercise into your health optimization protocol should be approached from a movement or play perspective rather than from an exercise perspective. Plus, moving when you feel like it rather than exercising when you think you should allows you to stay consistent. Blood circulation is something that is vital to the health of your skin and which is stimulated through exercise. Blood delivers the necessary nutrients to our skin to defend itself and fight the signs of premature aging. Poor circulation usually entails a decrease in reparative qualities as the waste removal system and healing process will also be weakened. This increases the risk of inflammation within the skin, which may cause breakouts or eczema. If there is a barrier deficiency or even a wound, the lack of proper nutrient delivery to the skin may also result in an inability to repair itself. Thus, the importance of getting movement in daily.What we discuss:06:40: About Josh09:55: How did Josh evolve into who he is today?23:06: What is the awareness shift?31:52: How does Josh link his system to the psyche?38:06: What to do once you remove your shoes?47:07: What is the foundation of movement in Josh’s protocol?50:45: Are joint rolls something you should be doing daily?58:30: Where to get more from Josh?1:02:00: How does increased blood circulation impact skin health?1:02:51: How does movement impact the lymphatic system?1:03:57: How does movement impact sweating?1:04:33: What skincare routine is ideal for working out?To learn more about Josh:Book: The Awareness ShiftWebsite: https://www.joshuajholland.com/ Podcast: Simply Walk The Talk Instagram: @joshuajhollandTo learn more about Young Goose:Website:
