Episode Summary

In this bonus episode, you will hear Erica DeMarch interview me on her Balance Matters podcast. We not only discuss my TEDx talk Your Socks May Hold the Key to Aging Better.  We also dive deep into the themes of the talk—exploring what else I would have shared if given more than 10 minutes to speak. In addition, we discuss the importance of body awareness in balance training along with exploring methods that can help with awareness through movement, like the Feldenkrais Method and yoga - powerful tools for improving balance and preventing falls.
