Over to Aaron. Hey guys, this is Stu from one 18 Nutrition, and I am delighted to welcome Aaron Alexander to the podcast. Aaron, how are you mate? Aaron I'm well, I've got my little flex bar thing here. I'm twisting as we're conversating. It's not- Stu [00:01:30] Well, we'll certainly get into that a little bit later for sure. But first up all of our listeners that may not be familiar with you or your work. I would love it if you could just tell us a little bit about yourself, please. Aaron Also, my background is manual therapy predominantly and then crossed with a lot of training of various different sorts and started off with, or started a podcast about seven years ago called the Align Podcast. And was it the integration of various different experts, [00:02:00] ultimately, mainly around conversation of the mind body intersection in relationship. It's kind of a focus, wrote a book called The Align Method a few years ago, and that's essentially filling in the gaps of a healthy movement lifestyle in your daily life. So instead of movement being like a thing that you, or fitness being a thing that you do, I'm much more interested in the [00:02:30] way that you are, and making it be something that's part of the way that you interact and communicate and understanding how to get the most out of your breathing patterns and visual patterns and your human experience as a movement experience. That's really what the line method educates people on, and I'm still trying to figure it out myself, frankly.
