223 Ericka Thomas: Stop Working Out: Navigating the Stress Curve

"We live in a culture of stress and systemic dysregulation. Stress, tension and trauma live in the body and are at the root of so many chronic health issues today. Fitness professionals are in a unique position to be boots on the ground to make a profound difference in our communities. Yet few get the training they need to help them navigate their own stress curve let alone for their clients. Bringing a focus to the work IN instead of the work OUT is a good start. "
Ericka is a highly caffeinated coach, course creator and entrepreneur with a certification collection that includes a registered yoga teacher, trauma release exercise provider and health coach. She is the owner and founder of Elemental Kinetics online trauma release studio. As a refugee from the body brand nation and host of the podcast The Work IN, she offers mentorship and professional perspectives to help fitness professionals and wellness educators who want to set themselves apart using a creative, trauma-sensitive approach so that they can get lasting results for their clients and avoid burnout for themselves. 

3 top tips for my audience:
1. Understand and embrace your influence for yourself and others. Your energy is so powerful and you deserve the grace to protect it.
2. Cultivate curiosity about what’s going on in your body and then practice letting go of the judgement you’ve attached to it. 
3. Opposites create balance so let yourself rediscover the things that bring you joy!
