Why do yoga and exercise have such beneficial effects on health and well-being? And what can we do to boost these effects? This Masterclass explores mindful movement, a special category in emerging research.

We’ll examine:

• the qualities that make movement mindful
• how mindfulness amplifies the benefits of movement
• the two main types of body awareness and how they intersect
• how mindful movement boosts immunity
• the brain’s proprioceptive “maps” and what they do for us
• novel movement and its role in emotional health + longevity
• the social context of movement and body agency

You’ll learn powerful ways to enhance your current meditation, movement, and exercise practices.
