Your bones just got a lot more interesting.
A study published in Nature Neuroscience last month caught my attention.
For years, doctors have noticed that people with traumatic brain injuries sometimes heal broken bones faster than expected.
So researchers wondered: if the brain can influence bone healing, could our bones also influence the brain?
They tested this by applying rhythmic compression to the shin bones of animals with brain injuries.
And get this. In one of the animal models, survival rates went from 20% to 90%.
They also found evidence that cells in the bones were releasing substances that helped protect the injured brain.
Which is fascinating, because we tend to think of bones as the framework holding us up.
But they're living tissue, actively involved in how our bodies function.
And that's just one example of why I think we need to look at the body as a whole.
Our gut, brain, and bones are all connected, and there's so much we miss when we look at them separately.
That's a big part of why I'm so excited about The Gut–Brain–Bone Connection workshop this Saturday.
We'll explore the science, but we'll also do some practices and exercises together so you can experience how changing sensory information can influence the way your body moves and feels.
You'll leave with a better understanding of these connections and a personalized starting point based on what you notice in your own body.
