celebrating joyful movement

We spoke to Nike ambassador, model, dancer, and founder of 'The Curve Catwalk', Trina Nicole, about joyful movement and body compassion. As a successful dancer whose performance credits include Nao, Lizzo, and even Beyonce, Trina champions joy through movement. We discuss challenges she's faced with body image issues and her journey to body compassion through re-discovering her love for dance.

what is body neutrality?

Do you wish you could feel more in tune with and at peace and compassionate for your body? We sat down with accredited trauma psychotherapist, Lauren Baird, to discuss how we can work toward body neutrality.

The body’s circadian rhythm relies on factors during the day that prepares the body for better sleep, and how and when you are exposed to daylight has a huge effect on your nocturnal patterns.
