In this episode I bring you violinist and body mapping expert Jennifer Johnson.
We discuss what body mapping is, its effect on our body, the daily actions she recommends in order to stay healthy and mentally balanced, how body mapping helps with nonphysical issues like stress, and much more.
Jennifer shares many impactful concepts. I know you're going to walk away completely inspired by this conversation with her.
