Protecting Your Bones

<p>Ensuring that our bones stay strong throughout our health span means not waiting until retirement to think about it. Bone health expert Margie Bissinger shares how we can take care of our bones pro-actively, beyond just exercise.</p> <p>In a really interesting congruency with Chinese Medicine, Margie's research and experience illustrates just how interwoven our bone health is with all kinds of other parts of our lives, even as far as our happiness. Taking care of our bones early on in our life can help us to align with being powerful and feel like the victor rather than the victim as we work with other aspects of our health.</p> <p>Just as a heads up, some of the links that follow are affiliate links for Margie's programs.</p> <p><strong>On Today’s Episode of A Healthy Curiosity:</strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why increasingly sedentary lifestyles are driving an epidemic of osteoporosis</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">How digestive problems can affect bone density</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The silver lining Margie identifies in an osteoporosis diagnosis</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">What effects stress can have on your bones</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The drastic results she’s seen from teaching patients about happiness</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Margie Bissinger is a physical therapist and integrative health coach.
