What the Fuzz?

Did you know you’re a fuzz factory?

You grow fuzz in your body every single night. Literally.

There’s something in your body akin to saran wrap. It’s that sheer white stuff you’ve seen if you’ve ever cleaned raw chicken. It’s called fascia and we all have it—gobs of it. Sometimes referred to as our second skeleton, fascia is much stiffer than muscle and softer than bone.

Fascia doesn’t get a lot of blood flow, and so consequently, it is more rigid. As we age, it dries up and gets harder, inhibiting movement.

If you don’t stretch daily, the fuzz turns into a glorified mummification over a lifetime reducing range of motion over time.

If you don’t believe me, check out this very real video by fascia expert Gil Hadley.

We take it for granted that this is a natural part of the aging process. It’s not.

Our bodies were meant to move. Period.

Come join me and start having more fun February 25-March 1st for Light Up Your Practice.

Love and fuzz-lessness,
