Movement is not just medicine for our body, but also provides nutrients in different kind of way than the food groups. In Genius Breaks, Dr. Suzie Carmack prescribes a plan for getting movement vitamins by using the 2,4,6,8,10 method. Throughout the workday, try moving all of your joints in a full range of motion (not all at once of course!).
We could also consider that how we hunt and gather for our food can provide movement nutrients for our body. Do you drive to the store and purchase pre-cut and washed produce or a rotisserie chicken that’s seasoned and cooked already? Or do you have an organic garden bed that you plant, water, harvest and prepare for the next growing season. Do you pick, wash, cut and prepare the harvest for consumption? Working to gather and hunt food used to be part of the daily movement, but our capitalistic society has outsourced everything but the chewing and swallowing. Here are some tips for adding more movement nutrients to your day.
