In this episode of the Perfect Flow Podcast I talk with Hazel Boot of Mind in Movement about the relationships between exercise, movement and lifestyle. Hazel studied exercise physiology and aligns closely with thought leaders like Katy Bowman in her interpretation of modernity’s problems. It was fascinating to hear her perspectives on the potential root cause of runners’ injuries and the process she works through with her clients to resolve these problems.
The topics we cover are:
- Her background and passions
- The difference between exercise and movement
- The difference between posture and alignment
- How she works with her clients
- Common injuries and her approach to treating them
- Interventions she uses
- Motivation and purpose
Hazel is overflowing with knowledge and passion and I’ll be following her very closely for years to come. You can find her work at www.mindinmovement.co.nz. She references Katy Bowman’s work, which is summarised in her book Movement Matters and on her website Nutritious Movement.
