What if there was a relationship between your body's posture and your health?

I got to sit down with a good friend here in town, Janis Isaman, and we talked about all things posture and wellness. We go beyond the surface level of 'core' strength myths, exposing the truth about six-pack misconceptions and diving into the peculiar postural challenges drummers face. This enlightening chat strikes a chord as we connect the glamorization of victimhood in music subgenres to the lifestyle pitfalls that often ensnare musicians. It's a conversation that tunes into the body mechanics critical for any artist's longevity.

Key takeaways for you:

Learn how to break the sedentary lifestyle with simple, consistent movements that will improve your posture after hours of sitting at your desk or playing your instrument!
Get some practical advice from the best-of-the-best in postural alignment to incorporate into even the busiest of lifestyles to treat and prevent chronic pain.
Learn how you can maintain your well-being and enhance performance through body awareness and mindful movement.
Pick up top-secret strategies for keeping an active lifestyle amidst the rigorous demands of touring and studio sessions.

Under The Radar: Secrets To Success For The Independent Musician

In a recent study, 73% of independent musicians reported having experienced mental health issues.

Traditionally, the Rockstar Lifestyle was all about sex, drugs and rock n' roll, right? Well, with that kind of lifestyle comes a lack of energy, focus, motivation and drive. Injuries occur, we become addicted to substances, experience anxiety, and depression and as a result, our relationships suffer and we end up resenting the thing we were born to do: make music.

Sound familiar?

Your poor lifestyle choices are killing you, literally and you're the only one stopping you from achieving your dream of being a successful musician. Time for a change, wouldn't you say? Learn from industry pros and musicians just like you how to make better business decisions, eat clean, move intentionally, and develop a performance mindset so you start to see success both on and off the stage.

This is the Musician Wellness information station and the only podcast on the planet creating Rockstars, one musician at a time. Our goal is to uncover the best-kept secrets of success and make them accessible to you, the independent musician.
