RESHAPE YOUR EXERCISE, YOGA, AND EVERYDAY MOVEMENT, ONE PART AT A TIME

We make hundreds of movement choices all day long, whether we know it or not: Sit or stand? Hip to the right or to the left? Heels or flats? So how can we make the choices that leave us feeling and moving our best? It starts with alignment–how our body is positioned throughout the day, whether working, exercising, or resting. Rethink Your Position is your guide to everyday alignment. Learn how to:

  • Align your head while looking at your phone to avoid a “tech neck”
  • Open tight shoulders by repositioning your elbows when driving or at a computer
  • Vary your carrying style at work and at home for a stronger core and happier lower back
  • Switch up the way you walk for happier feet and knees
  • Change your sleep-shape to wake up feeling refreshed
  • Find even better form in your regular yoga, Pilates, or fitness workout

Katy Bowman

Bestselling author, speaker, and a leader of the Movement movement, biomechanist Katy Bowman is changing the way we move and think about our need for movement. Her eight books, including the groundbreaking Move Your DNA, have been translated into more than a dozen languages worldwide. Bowman teaches movement globally and speaks about sedentarism and movement ecology to academic and scientific audiences such as the Ancestral Health Summit and the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition. Her work is regularly featured in diverse media such as the Today Show, CBC Radio One, the Seattle Times, the Joe Rogan Experience, and Good Housekeeping. One of Maria Shriver's "Architects of Change" and an America Walks "Woman of the Walking Movement," Bowman consults on educational and living space design to encourage movement-rich habitats. She has worked with companies like Patagonia as well as non-profits to ensure diverse socioeconomic groups benefit from her "move more, move more of you, and move better" message. Her movement education company, Nutritious Movement, is based in Washington State, where she lives with her family.
