About this episode

Laura and Sarah discuss movement patterns and interview Manoush Zomorodi about the benefits of small movement breaks for health.

Laura and Sarah open with a discussion of their own movement patterns - do they track steps? Then author and NPR podcast host Manoush Zomorodi joins Sarah for a fascinating discussion of how incorporating small movement breaks into the day can have an outsized impact on health and well-being. Her new book is called Body Electric (she’s Laura’s book twin, with the same release date) and is out wherever books are sold! In the Q&A, a listener asks for tips on staying helathy while traveling frequently for work. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
