That is exactly how it is. If you feel down, you let your head hang, you arch your back and let your shoulders fall. The feet are dragging themselves along. The soul is not feeling well and the body reflects it. It shows that you are being off colour.
When you feel good you keep your head high and you walk tall. The body shows when you are happy; to others and also to yourself. That is the good thing about the connection between the body and soul. The signals travel in both directions. You can tell your body that you feel good and the body can give you signals indicating that you feel good.
Friskis&Svettis training wants to help you send signals. High, open and easy exercises contains and creates pleasure - pleasure in movement! The feeling, the sweat and the smiles from the people in the room creates a fellowship.
