My guest today is Dr. Evelyn Higgins. Founder of Wired For Addiction®, Dr. Evelyn Higgins is a recognized international expert in the science of addiction recovery.

She is a Certified Addictionologist, Diplomate of the American Board of Disability Analysts specializing in pain management, and Diplomate of the American College of Addictionology and Compulsive Disorders.

Dr. Higgins has had the honor of advising the U.S. Surgeon General, producing and hosting a Gracie Award winning nationally syndicated health and wellness radio program, and serving as a 1996 Olympic Team Doctor and Olympic torch bearer.   With 35 years in practice, Dr. Higgins has specialized in the clinical application of the neuroscience & epigenetics behind mental health complexities and currently finds herself at the nexus of epigenetics, neuroscience, and health.

Connect with people from all over.

The Camino de Santiago, or the Way of Saint James, is a 500 mile pilgrimage across Spain that has been completed for centuries. It is a journey that has been taken by many people seeking spiritual enlightenment, physical challenge, and a connection with people from all over the world.

Dr. Higgins was inspired to undertake the Camino de Santiago after reading Paulo Coelho’s book, The Alchemist. She left her practice for 32 days and walked 800 kilometers across Spain. She was determined to find out what the Camino had to offer her.

On the Camino, Dr. Higgins was amazed by the connection she made with people from all over the world. She was approached by people from different countries and languages, who wanted to walk with her. Through conversations with these people, she was able to gain insight into different cultures and perspectives. She was also able to connect with herself and find more clarity in her life.

The Camino de Santiago offers a unique opportunity to connect with people from all over the world. It is a journey that can be taken alone or with a group. It is a journey of physical and spiritual challenge, as well as a journey of self-discovery. For Dr. Higgins, the Camino de Santiago was a life-changing experience that allowed her to connect with people from all over the world and gain a greater understanding of herself.

Find yourself on the Camino.

Dr. Higgins encountered many people on her journey, some of whom she would never see again. Despite this, she was able to form meaningful connections with them. She also encountered a priest who gave her an important message: “You know exactly who you are, but when you’re finished, you’ll be somebody completely different.” This message resonated with Dr. Higgins and motivated her to reflect on her journey and the people she had met.

Dr. Higgins also experienced physical and spiritual challenges during her journey. She had to push herself to the limits of her physical endurance, and she also had to confront her own doubts and fears. She found that the physical and spiritual challenges of the Camino de Santiago helped her to connect with herself in a deeper way. She was able to reflect on her life and her purpose, and she was able to gain a greater understanding of who she was and who she wanted to become.

Dr. Higgins’ journey on the Camino de Santiago was an incredible experience that changed her life in every way. She experienced physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual growth. She was able to connect with people from all over the world, and she was able to gain a greater understanding of herself. The Camino de Santiago is a journey of self-discovery, and it is a journey that anyone can take. It is a journey of physical and spiritual challenge, and it is a journey that can help you find yourself.

Addiction is a disease.

One thing that Dr. Higgins learned on her journey is that addiction is a disease. She was inspired by the stories of people she met on the Camino and the struggles they faced. She was able to gain a greater understanding of addiction and the struggles that people face when they are trying to recover. She was able to understand that addiction is not a moral flaw, but rather a disease that needs to be treated.

Dr. Higgins was also inspired by her own family’s struggles with addiction. She was able to understand that addiction affects not only the individual, but also their family and friends. Addiction has a ripple effect and can cause a great deal of pain and suffering for those affected.

At Wired for Addiction, Dr. Higgins is working to help people understand the science behind addiction. She is looking at neurotransmitters, hormones, and genetic snips to try to understand why people become addicted and how best to treat them. She is also trying to reduce the stigma around addiction and to show people that it is a disease that needs to be treated.

Addiction is a disease and it needs to be treated as such. It is not a moral flaw, but rather a medical condition that needs to be addressed. We need to reduce the stigma around addiction and to provide people with the resources they need to recover. We need to understand the science behind addiction and to provide people with the tools they need to make a full recovery. Dr. Higgins’ journey on the Camino de Santiago has inspired her to work to reduce the stigma around addiction and to provide people with the resources they need to make a full recovery.

Seek professional help for addiction.

It is important to understand that addiction is a biopsychosocial disease. This means that it is not just a psychological issue, but that there is also a biological and social component. People who are addicted to drugs or alcohol may have underlying traumas or undiagnosed conditions that can affect their physiology. It is important to look at the biological and social components of addiction, as well as the psychological aspects.

At Wired for Addiction, Dr. Higgins and her team are working to provide people with the tools they need to make a full recovery. They offer a 15-minute consultation at no cost to point people in the right direction for their recovery. They work with individuals, treatment centers, therapists, coaches, physicians, and even the justice system.

We need to reduce the stigma around addiction and to provide people with the resources they need to make a full recovery. We need to understand the science behind addiction, and to provide people with the tools they need to make a full recovery. Seeking professional help is the first step in the recovery process and it is important to find the right help for you.

Multiple perspectives lead to success.

One of the most important aspects of seeking professional help is to understand the multiple perspectives that are involved. This is why it is important to find a professional who can understand and appreciate multiple perspectives. Evelyn, a doctor and addiction specialist, is a great example of someone who understands the multiple perspectives involved in addiction treatment. She understands the clinical perspective, but also the personal perspective. She understands that when it comes to treating addiction, it is important to be both a leader and a friend.

Evelyn also understands the importance of seeing the person as a whole, rather than just a set of symptoms. She understands that there are multiple facets to a person, and that it is important to take all of these into consideration when treating addiction. Evelyn also understands the importance of looking at the person holistically, taking into account their family and social situations as well as their clinical needs. This allows her to provide the best possible care for her patients.

The ability to see multiple perspectives is key to success in any field. It allows us to have a more holistic understanding of the situation, to better understand the needs of those we are helping, and to provide the best possible care. Evelyn’s example is a great reminder of the importance of understanding multiple perspectives in order to succeed. Taking the time to listen and understand the different facets of a person can make all the difference in providing the best possible care.

--- Why does Movers Mindset exist?

The purpose of Movers Mindset is to create and share great conversations with movement enthusiasts. Each conversation feeds my insatiable curiosity, but I share them to turn on a light for someone else, to inspire them, or to give them their next question.

In the podcast, I talk with movement enthusiasts to learn who they are, what they do, and why they do it. I'm interested in the nature and philosophy of movement and in exploring themes like independence, self-direction, and human excellence. My interests color each conversation and provide some structure to Movers Mindset. But since I like to take the scenic route, every conversation ends up going somewhere unique.

I really appreciate your time and attention, and I don’t take it for granted.

How does having a “still mind” and striving for silent movement help to foster self-direction?

Martin Svenselius is an experienced mover who has been teaching and practicing physical movement for 15 years. He encourages others to find their own self-directed movement practice and recognizes the importance of balancing work and play. He uses tools such as offering options and scalability, setting goal-oriented exercises, and having a “still mind” to help others in their journey.

Martin's movement journey began in 2005 when he and a group of friends started exploring parkour without any knowledge or understanding of its philosophy. As he was one of the older members of the group, Martin quickly became a leader and people started to ask him questions and look to him for advice.

This quickly grew into a business, with Martin teaching multiple classes per week and dedicating much of his time to the movement practice. He found that this left him with very little time to dedicate to his own personal practice, which he found to be both mentally and physically taxing.

When it comes to teaching, Martin has realized that the key is to focus on function and movement, rather than specific equipment. He encourages his students to observe how they move, how they interpret his instructions and how they can build on that to make their movements faster, quieter or more efficient.

At the end of the day, Martin has realized that balance is essential to any successful movement practice. He believes that it is important to understand the differences between being a follower and a self-directed leader, and to be mindful of the importance of dedicating time to one's own practice. By finding the right balance between work and play, Martin believes that anyone can benefit from the joy of movement.

Self-direction is an important skill to foster in any individual, whether it be in a western or a non-western context. Self-direction involves being able to take initiative, recognize what is possible, and take action to achieve goals. To help people become self-directed, Martin has a few tools he uses in his practice.

The first tool is to offer options and scalability. Martin acknowledges that the class he teaches can range from beginners to advanced students, so it is important to give everyone the ability to choose their level of difficulty and challenge. This helps to foster self-direction, as people can recognize the choices available to them and decide what is best for them.

The second tool Martin recommends is to set goal-oriented exercises. While offering options and scalability is important, goal-oriented exercises can help people learn to think in a self-directed way. This encourages people to take initiative and strive for the goal.

In addition to these tools, there are certain skills that are important for people to possess in order to become self-directed. This includes creativity, the ability to explore, the willingness to try things, and the ability to ask questions. It is also important to be able to challenge yourself and set difficult yet achievable goals.

Finally, Martin recommends having a “still mind” while engaging in physical activities. This means keeping a calm and focused mind, even when the physical activity is challenging. It is also important to be consistent in your practice and to strive for silent movement, as this will help to foster self-direction.

In conclusion, self-direction is an important skill to foster in any individual, and Martin has a few tools he uses to help people become self-directed. These include offering options and scalability, setting goal-oriented exercises, and possessing certain skills such as creativity and the ability to challenge oneself. Additionally, Martin recommends having a “still mind” and striving for silent movement while engaging in physical activities.

Since 2010 the Women's Parkor Movement annual gathering has brought practitioners together from across the globe to share their voices and their movement with one another. From teaching workshops and sessions to designing the t-shirts and posters. It is an event conceived organized and executed by women within the community every step of the way.

http://www.WomensParkourMovement.org/

The WPKM gathering is a space for women to come together and learn from each other, to share their experiences and challenges, and to support one another in their movement journeys. The event includes workshops and sessions led by experienced practitioners, as well as opportunities for participants to design t-shirts and posters.

"The WPKM gathering is not just about movement," says Alice Popejoy. "It's about empowering women and creating a supportive community where they can learn, grow, and connect with others who share their passion for parkour."

In addition to the annual gathering, the WPKM has a presence on social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, and Discord. These online spaces provide a way for women in the community to connect with each other, to share their experiences and skills, and to support one another in their training.

The WPKM is more than just a gathering or a social media community; it is a movement. It is about providing opportunities for women to learn, grow, and connect with others in the parkour community, and to create a more inclusive and diverse space for all practitioners.

"We believe that parkour is for everyone," says Adrienne Tumaan. "We are working to break down the barriers that have traditionally held women back in the parkour community, and to create a more inclusive and supportive space for everyone to thrive."

The WPKM is an important part of the parkour community, and its work is helping to create a more diverse and inclusive space for all practitioners. Whether you are new to parkour or an experienced practitioner, the WPKM is a valuable resource and a supportive community for women in the discipline.

Adam Dipert is a Postdoctoral Research Scholar in Physics at North Carolina State University and has wowed audiences as a professional circus performer for nearly twenty years. He started studying human movement in weightlessness in preparation for his first parabolic flight in 2016, and since then he has logged countless hours exploring the frontiers of microgravity flow in pools, aerial harnesses, flotation tanks, wind tunnels, and airplanes. In addition to developing a new suite of dance moves for outer space, he has exercised remarkable restraint not asking NASA for permission to spin fire on the ISS.

And you've become only eyes, because you now no longer have a way of sensing where your body is. And not only do you only become eyes, but you're also experiencing tunnel vision. And so when you enter weightlessness, and start to develop the skills which will be necessary to become a competent movement artist in that environment, you have to first figure out how to re inhabit your body and how to come back from just being eyes and realize that you have a head and find out where your arms are, and have some idea about where your arm is, say when it's behind your back because, you know, right now on Earth, probably everybody listening to this is on earth, waving your arm. Yeah, you put your arm behind your back and and what is it that tells you where your arm is? It's the tension in your shoulder, right? It's the torque in your arm, elbow. It's it's a lot of things that are all gravitationally oriented. And so you have to come with a totally new set of skills.

This episode is far out, and far ranging. Adam and I managed to coordinate a recording session with little advanced notice… and then we proceeded to go wide and deep on circus stuff, juggling, physics, mathematics, and movement in weightlessness.

Finally, since I clearly cannot cram the visuals into the audio, you simply must float over to Adam's web site: TheSpaceJuggler.com

Kel Glaister, is a Parkour coach and movement enthusiast. In this conversation with Craig Constantine, Kel discusses how cultural and environmental differences can influence how people approach movement. Kel notes that there are definitely cultural differences in how people approach and think about movement, and that the availability of training spaces and the type of obstacles present can also influence how people move.

Understanding Cultural and Environmental Influences on Movement

In this conversation with Craig Constantine, Parkour coach and movement enthusiast Kel Glaister discussed how cultural and environmental differences can influence how people approach movement.

According to Kel, there are definitely cultural differences in how people approach and think about movement. In some cultures, there may be a greater emphasis on group activities and team sports, whereas in others there may be more individualistic approaches to movement and exercise.

In terms of urban versus suburban environments, Kel believes that the availability of training spaces and the type of obstacles that are present can definitely influence how people move and train. For example, in a more urban environment, there may be more opportunities for training on man-made structures, while in a suburban environment, there may be more natural obstacles and open spaces to move in.

Overall, Kel believes that the way people approach movement is influenced by a variety of factors, including cultural and environmental differences. This means that the way people move and train can vary greatly depending on where they are and what their cultural background is.

As a Parkour coach, Kel has likely seen these differences in action and has had to adapt their coaching style to accommodate them. By understanding and embracing these cultural and environmental differences, Kel and other movement enthusiasts can continue to promote and grow the movement community in a way that is inclusive and welcoming to all.

Craig and Seth Ruji discuss the mental aspects of their movement practice. Craig mentions a previous conversation where they discussed the mental side of their practice, and expresses interest in hearing Seth's thoughts on the topic. Seth notes that discipline and planning are important factors in their training, as well as pushing themselves with challenging scenarios that they are not yet comfortable with. He also mentions the importance of being able to identify their strengths and weaknesses in order to create a plan for improvement.

The Mental Side of Movement

In this episode, Craig speaks with movement enthusiast Seth Ruji about the mental side of their practice. Seth emphasizes the importance of discipline and planning in his training, saying, "having the mindset and mentality to be able to structure and be disciplined in my training so that I can be incremental and continue to progress." This approach allows him to make steady progress and achieve his goals.

Additionally, Seth discusses the importance of challenging oneself with uncomfortable scenarios. "The other side of it is the more hardcore specific side of challenging yourself to scenarios that you feel are uncomfortable with your current skill set." By pushing himself out of his comfort zone and facing challenging situations, he is able to continue improving and growing.

Craig also expresses interest in hearing Seth's previous thoughts on the topic, but Seth is unable to recall their previous exchange. This highlights the fact that our approach to the mental side of our practice can evolve and change over time.

Overall, the conversation between Craig and Seth emphasizes the importance of discipline, planning, and challenging oneself in order to continue improving and growing in one's movement practice.

Robbie Corbett is known for many things. In this conversation, Craig talks with Robbie about a recent passion-project which Robbie has dreamed of for many years. Robbie describes Pop Up Parkour, a construction project that creates temporary parkour spaces for schools and communities. He discusses his passion for parkour and how the Pop Up Parkour project came to be. He also talks about the challenges of creating a space that accommodates people of all sizes and abilities, and how the project has helped to foster creativity and community among parkour enthusiasts.

The Creation of Pop Up Parkour

In his conversation with Craig, Robbie Corbett discusses his passion for parkour and the creation of his construction project, Pop Up Parkour.

Inspired by the parkour spaces he saw in other countries, he began to explore his local playgrounds and quickly realized the need for a space that was more accommodating to people of all sizes and abilities. This led to the creation of Pop Up Parkour, a construction project that creates temporary parkour spaces for schools and communities. The project focuses on creating a free-flowing, creative environment where parkour enthusiasts can train and challenge themselves in new ways.

Corbett and his team work closely with equipment manufacturers to design equipment that can be used for training and competitions, and they also incorporate elements that allow for flexibility and creativity in the space. In addition to providing a valuable training space for parkour enthusiasts, Pop Up Parkour has also helped to foster a sense of community and collaboration among its users. Corbett hopes to continue expanding the project and bringing parkour to more schools and communities in the future.

The purpose of Movers Mindset is to create and share great conversations with movement enthusiasts. Each conversation feeds my insatiable curiosity, but I share them to turn on a light for someone else, to inspire them, or to give them their next question.

In the podcast, I talk with movement enthusiasts to learn who they are, what they do, and why they do it. I'm interested in the nature and philosophy of movement and in exploring themes like independence, self-direction, and human excellence. My interests color each conversation and provide some structure to Movers Mindset. But since I like to take the scenic route, every conversation ends up going somewhere unique.

I really appreciate your time and attention, and I don’t take it for granted.

--- I need your support

I want to share more of these amazing conversations, with amazing people, but I’m limited by the cost of the project. Please support what I’m doing. Every dollar really makes a difference.

My personal mission is creating better conversations to spread understanding and compassion. And Movers Mindset is one of the things I do in service of my mission. Drop by constantine.name for my weekly email, my other podcasts, writing and more.

The Movers Mindset project grew from conversations I started having as part of my personal journey rediscovering movement. The project started late in 2015, and it was initially simply a web site that shared others’ writing. The project grew, and in 2017 I started the podcast. I’ve worked extremely hard, but none of this would have been possible without so much help from so many people.

Cheers!
