Exercise vs Movement

Exercise – an activity carried out for a specific purpose. 

Movement – the act or process of moving especially - change of place or position or posture.

The gut is the pathway to great health.  We don’t often think of our gut when we experience all sorts of health problems, from bloating, brain fog, autoimmunity and multiple skin issues including psoriasis, however it is the missing link to our energy and happiness.
