Resonance – Episode 11
Verbatim Transcript
Speaker: Viktoria Levenberg
Yes, it can actually be great to move your body in a way that doesn’t involve running 1,000
miles on the treadmill. Find movement that brings you joy. Find movement that lights you up.
If we stay stuck, then we also are perpetuating an environment which can be the great
breeding ground for disease and ailments and illnesses. That’s not sustainable. And that’s not
how, like, your body is listening.
Alright, well, welcome. Welcome this week. We are talking all about movement and really
about how there is no one set in specific way of moving that is right or wrong, but really how
you are uniquely bio individual, and how to find that movement that feels good for you.
And also why you may actually be more favoured and lean towards specific types of
movement than others. So I really look forward to sharing this with you, so let’s dive in.
Welcome to Resonance, a podcast for ambitious, heart-led humans craving more balance,
depth, and aliveness in their lives. I’m your host, Vik—health coach, yoga teacher, facilitator,
and fellow high achiever learning to live in tune with my nervous system, not against it.
This space is here to remind you that you can have it all: the career, the success, the
fulfilment—all aligned with your truth. Through honest conversations, expert insights, and
practical tools, we’ll explore how to work with your body, mind, emotions, and spirit, not
against them.
And the best part? You don’t have to stay stuck in survival mode to get there, because true
well-being is not about being perfect. It’s about being in resonance. Let’s dive in.
The episode today was inspired by a conversation I had with someone who is really into like
intense types of movement, you know, like BFT, CrossFit, let’s go, um. And I was explaining to
them why that is not for me.
Um, and I was like, oh, you know what, actually a lot of people don’t talk about this. So it
might be something that, um, you would enjoy to hear. So let’s dive in, because I’m sure you
would love to hear that, yes, it can actually be great to move your body in a way that doesn’t
involve running 1,000 miles on the treadmill, lifting weights nonstop all the time at the gym,
or like doing that weird prescription routine that your PT gave you like six years ago.
Okay, so let’s dive in. Let’s just talk about moving your body.
Um, I, as a health coach, you know, have worked with many clients who have struggled with
incorporating movement into their life. And actually I want to share a story of one client
who—that was like one of her first focus areas when we started working together. She really
wanted to bring more movement into her day-to-day life.
And she, um, shared, um, you know, she started with like trying Pilates. And she had all the
gear, like she had the mat and everything, and she researched some YouTube videos and did
it like here and there, but it really wasn’t sticking. Like it wasn’t becoming a habit. You could
just tell she was not enjoying herself.
And so we worked with that and a couple of other things. And over the time, uh, really
interestingly, she shared things that she loves and ways that she loves to move. One of which
is Zumba, which is like a dance kind of workout. And the other is walking out in nature, and
specifically there was like a really special place that she loved to go to, whether it was with
her partner or without, and um, like go to the duck pond and visit the ducks and kind of just
really enjoy that.
So as soon as she identified these types of movement that truly light her up from inside, all of
a sudden her ability to bring movement into her day-to-day routine like skyrocketed. Yes, of
course there was still adjustments and, you know, like habit building and shifting—like we are
human beings. We have these big brains that do a lot of thinking and a lot of overthinking for
us, right? Um, otherwise we wouldn’t be overwhelmed and stressed out all the time, haha.
Um, so yeah, of course there was still some habit building, but it became much easier when
she found things that she enjoyed.
So I, if there is like one thing you take away from today’s episode, I hope that it is this: find
movement that brings you joy. Like, find movement that lights you up.
Because we all know, right? Like it’s important to move our body. I’m pretty sure I’m
preaching to the converted here, that you understand it is good for you, right? Like the
doctors tell you about it, the media tell you about it, everyone tells you about it.
But like, let’s just like take a step back and understand the why. Like, our bodies are made to
move. Like literally, if you look at the way we are anatomically structured and built, you can
see that our bodies weren’t built to be sitting at a desk for eight hours a day and then
blopping on the couch.
Like, what a waste of potential. I’m sorry, I’m just gonna call it for what it is. Like, our bodies
are so incredible. We can do such great things with them. And we can feel incredible.
It just takes a little bit of effort. And I tell you what, and I told this actually to the same client
as well: an object in motion stays in motion. So the hardest part is starting. The hardest part
is getting out the door. It’s getting in the car, it’s getting off the couch, it’s putting the
runners on.
And I know it, because I’ve been there, guys. Like I used to train for marathons, which
involved running pretty much every single day. It involved going out on like 20+ k runs on the
weekend. Like who does that, what an idiot. No, I’m kidding, like it was great.
Um, but of course I also didn’t feel like it, right? And I knew that it just took that first step.
Sometimes I was like, okay, I’ll just go out, and if I really don’t feel like it after 1K, I can turn
around and go home. But like it just took that first step, and then once you’re in motion, you
stay in motion.
So I just wanted to share this because, yeah, it is hard. It is hard, especially if you haven’t
moved for a while. Like Cam and I went to the gym yesterday, and he hadn’t been to the gym
in ages. His body is sore as shit today.
I understand that because his muscles are like, oh my God, what just happened? Even though
he like used way less weight than usual, and I think he did like less reps, right? But like still, of
course, if something’s new or it’s been a while, or you’re moving it in a different way, you’re
gonna feel a bit strange.
And there will be resistance. That’s just the nature of the game.
So if you have been trying to get more movement into your day-to-day routine and you’re
kind of looking at people out there who are doing it and you’re like, oh, that’s easy for you to
say because you’re this and that—it’s like, actually no. I have the same resistance. I have the
same blocks. I have the same laziness that comes up. But how I respond to that is probably
different. And that is because I have found movement that brings me joy.
So back to the why. If I haven’t convinced you by now that, like, we are built to move, think
about the fact that our bodies are literally like up to 70% water, right? Like I still just find that
so fascinating, that we are up to 70% water.
And what happens to water that stays stuck in a pond that’s got no flow in it? There’s
disease. Bacteria. It’s yucky. It’s like dead, right?
Like, so don’t you think that the reason that all of water is in flow—the ocean tides, the
waves, the rivers, all kinds of mobile bodies of water—are healthy? And so if we are mostly
water, then if we stay stuck, then we also are then perpetuating an environment which can
be the great breeding ground for disease and ailments and illnesses, right?
So we need to continue to move so that we can move through the stuff in our body, but also
things that come up.
So you are here most likely because you are stressed, overwhelmed, overworked, burnt out,
or you’re like one of my family and friends and you really love me—and for that I really
appreciate you, either way, haha.
If you are here, you have probably experienced a lot of stress, right? And movement is an
incredible coping tool for stress. It is an incredible tool for boosting energy.
So like, I’m sure you would have had that experience, or if you haven’t, you’ve heard of
someone who had that experience, who like didn’t feel like it, and you’re like, oh, I could just
stay on the couch for like the rest of the day and I don’t wanna move and I don’t wanna do
anything ever again.
And then you somehow manage to find that motivation and get out there, and then you do
the movement, and then afterwards you’re like, oh, I feel so alive and so awake and I feel so
great, and like the endorphins are going through, right? Like the happiness hormones and the
energy is just like—because you brought some fresh umph into your body.
Right, like that is why movement is so important. And of course there’s all the other health
benefits, but look, that’s not what we’re talking about here today.
What we are talking about here is finding your movement.
So, what if I told you that your regular form of exercise didn’t have to be the traditional
running, weightlifting, CrossFit, biking, rowing that you see out there. Like, what if I told you
that there is any kind of movement that brings you joy that counts?
So here’s an example: for a really long time I used to discount anything that wasn’t like a
traditional kind of movement. And that’s actually also part of the reasons why I didn’t do
many of the things that bring me joy, because I was just like, oh, well, no, because unless I’ve
like clocked these calories on the treadmill, it doesn’t count, right?
So what are some examples of movement that are a little bit less traditional that could still
count? Well, um, cleaning the house. Like maybe you don’t really enjoy it, but hey, like on a
day where you’ve cleaned the house—man, you have done a workout. I don’t know about
you, but like I am zonked after I’ve cleaned the house.
So that’s a big one. Um, dancing. I mean, like games, right? Like badminton, pickleball, tennis,
volleyball, basketball. Um, swimming, even like out in the ocean. Running around playing with
the kids at the playground, or at the beach, or skating at the skate park, rollerblading.
Um, yoga, obviously. I did a big episode on yoga just before, so I didn’t want to kind of make
this all about yoga again. Um, but yeah, there’s just like, oh my gosh, the list is never-ending,
right? Like there are so many ways that you move your body that get you off your ass and get
you moving—that counts.
Okay, so please stop being like, oh no, well, I need to go to the gym and I need to make sure I
do the 15 reps of the biceps curls, and then I gotta do the chest press. And like, yeah sure, if
that’s your jam, go for it.
But like, if that makes you deflate and freaking like, ugh, then that’s probably not where you
should start.
Now, on that note though, I do wanna stress that—ah, look, meet yourself where you are,
right? Like if you’re not moving your body right now, then at least just start to incorporate a
little bit more that brings you joy.
Because that’s where we wanna start. Then once you’ve got that routine, like once that
becomes a habit—and here’s the thing—like motivation isn’t enough because motivation is
finite. And this is why coaching is so important, right? It’s like I help people build long-term
sustainable transformative habits so that they don’t need to come back.
Like, I know I’ve done my job right when a client finishes up with me and they’re like, cool,
thanks, like see you when I see you. But they don’t need to come back, because I give them
the tools so that they are equipped for success for the rest of their life.
And so if you are relying on motivation to get your butt off the couch, um, that might work
for a short time but it is not sustainable. It’s just gonna get you back on the couch and not
moving again. Um, so really find what brings you joy. Like, that is a really great tip and that
will make it easier for you to build that habit.
If you need help, obviously get help. Um, but that would be where I would start.
Then once it’s truly a habit—and let me tell you something, like it’s not really a habit until it’s
a way of life, right? Like you know something’s like truly part of your lifestyle when you’re like
on holiday and you’re like, okay, where can I—like I travel with my yoga mat, for example. So
I know my yoga mat fits exactly in a specific spot in my suitcase, and that is a specific spot in
my suitcase that is always reserved for my yoga mat.
‘Cause I just like, I don’t need a gym, I just bring my own with me, right? Like if I’ve got my
mat I’m happy. I know other people who are like, cool, if I’m traveling, I’m gonna book that
hotel and I’m gonna make sure that the hotel has got a gym, or I wanna make sure I’ve got
access to a running track, or blah blah blah blah blah, right? Like that’s when you know the
habit’s so ingrained, when you like build your life around it almost rather than having to have
that ongoing conscious effort.
So once you’re in that space with your movement practice, then you can evolve to the next
step. And that is where you really make sure that you have your—hah, dessert menu. I don’t
know why that analogy just came. No, not dessert menu. Just like your menu of specific kinds
of movement which all play a specific role.
So ideally in your joyful movement repertoire you have three kinds of movement.
There is cardiovascular activity—so for the heart, right, for our heart health, it is so incredibly
important. It is something that just gets our aerobic activity going, it raises the heart rate, it
gets us to use our lungs a little bit more, it gets us into that elevated heart rate state. That’s
one area, and I’ll give a few examples of each of those in just a moment.
Um, the second area that’s really important to weave in is strength. So yes, you do want
some kind of strength-based exercise. So for those of you who maybe like really don’t enjoy
strength exercises, this might be the area where you need a little bit more support to really,
um, create a more sustainable way forward and have that habit built up over time. But it is
crucial. And I’ll share again a little bit more about why in just a moment.
And then we’ve got mobility as well. So mobility being in the sense of like flexibility, balance,
being able to move freely. And again there are specific types that fall under that umbrella.
So we’ve got cardiovascular or heart, strength, and mobility. Why heart? I think I’ve already
spoken to that, alright—like heart health, our lungs, enhancing our lung capacity, keeping all
of the apparatus here in our upper body kind of young and healthy and functional.
Then why strength? Incredibly important for us to be able to go about our day-to-day life,
right? Like our muscles are so critically important for us to be able to do things like get up off
the couch—pun intended, kind of. Um, but also they, you know, play such an incredible role
in things like hormone stabilization. And especially as our bodies age, especially if you’re a
woman, especially if you’re peri or menopausal, you need to make sure that you have
strength training because it’s really important for your ongoing health and well-being.
And then why mobility? Well also because it really impacts your quality of life, right? So like,
you know, I’m sure you’ve probably seen someone who like drops something and they can’t
pick it up.
Or here’s a really great example. One of my students at yoga, like they were a private client
for a little while, and a few weeks after practicing regularly with me every week they were
like, oh my gosh—and they’re standing on one leg and putting their sock on—like I can’t
remember the last time that I put my sock on while standing. Like I’ve always had to sit down.
Like, so that’s mobility. That’s balance and flexibility and just, yeah, the ability to move your
body freely in your day-to-day life and also prevent injury.
Like, that’s where strength and mobility also really come into play, because if you’re strong,
you will naturally be able to resist more disruptions that come your way, as life does.
However, also if your mobility is really good, then let’s say things like, you know, tripping on
the sidewalk or whatever—you are more likely to catch yourself and prevent injury.
So what are some examples of these three different criteria, and what are some both
traditional and less traditional types of exercise that would fall under there?
So when it comes to heart and cardio, it could be as simple as walking, right? Like, so for
example, that’s what that looks like in my life right now. Um, I walk Piper, which is Cam’s dog,
every day—most days. And it’s like a really nice big walk, like a 40-minute walk, and it’s just
like a leisurely walk. I’m not walking super fast or anything, but it still gets, keeps that heart
working. It keeps those legs moving. It keeps the body, that water flowing through the body,
right?
Um, and then what are some like less—well, some other traditional ways would be like
jogging, running, high intensity interval training. Some less traditional ways would be dance,
or maybe even sex.
Yeah. So, you know, even that can count as joyful movement because it is cardiovascular
activity, it raises your heart rate. So those are some ideas.
Then from a strength perspective, um, so really, you know, your kind of typical one would be
the weight lifting at the gym, right? Like, you know, using weights and in repetitive
movements, some kind of weight-bearing exercise. That is personally what I strive to do
ideally. Um, based on like guidelines both in the US and in New Zealand and kind of most
Western countries, you do that at least two days a week. Um, and so that’s what I am
currently working on.
I’m gonna be totally honest, like I’m not perfect with it, but that is the goal—to at least do
two sessions at the gym every week. And I just split, like I keep it simple for myself. I do like
upper body, lower body. That’s enough. Um, but you could totally nerd out on that side.
Now, some less traditional ways of getting strength—I mean like this one’s probably the one
where, as I mentioned earlier, like the traditional route is probably the more easier one to
take. But there could be other things like, um, I don’t know, maybe you like work on a farm
and you help like moving all the fruits and stuff around, or like carrying heavy boxes. Moving
house is a big strength exercise.
Um, that, you know, I’ve gone through many times and it’s very triggering for me, but yeah,
that is a strength workout. Um, so just think anything that’s kind of weight-bearing would
then count as strength.
And then mobility-wise, well, you’ve got your kind of standard just stretching, but of course
then there’s yoga, you know. But there’s also so many other ways, just like tuning into, like a
massage could be great for mobility because it works into the tissues of your body. And like, I
mean, who doesn’t love to get a massage? I definitely do.
Um, swimming is also really good for mobility. It can also be really great for strength and
cardio depending on how fast you go, but just that movement of the joints and being in
water is really incredible for mobility.
Um, think of other like balancing acts like acrobatics—I don’t know, I’m just trying to be really
creative here and think outside of the box there, right? Or like, um, what else might have you
balancing on one leg? Um…
So I hope that this gives you a bit of an idea of what each of those could look like. And um, as
I’m sure you would have guessed by now, my mobility practice is very much rooted in yoga.
Um, and I kind of alternate between vinyasa and yoga nidras and Yin as well.
So, um, to be honest, even yoga can tick most of those boxes—probably less so the heart,
unless you’re going to like a hot yoga class or a really intense one. Um, but trust me,
especially if you go to like a more dynamic class or, um, yeah, there is a lot of strength in
there. Using your body and actually working with your body and doing strength is one of the
best ways to build that muscle mass, because you are literally just working with yourself
against gravity. And that’s pretty cool.
So look, I think I just wanted to give you these examples because so often we tend to limit
ourselves to what is kind of standardized, what’s out there, what’s easily available. And that
doesn’t have to be the way for you.
So for example, if I were to share like the evolution of my personal movement journey, I
mean luckily I have been quite active for most of my life, um, because an object in motion
stays in motion, right? It’s just kind of part of life. But, um, I think like my regular movement
started around my early teens when I joined some teams at school. Like I started playing
volleyball and basketball, and then I dabbled in soccer a little bit, and I did some track and
field stuff.
Um, I’m sure there were some other things in between, like Mom tried to get me to do
ballet, and I think I tried hip hop for some time as well, you know. So like definitely a lot
there, um, but mostly stayed in the team sports.
And that was like a really big part of my life. But also at that same time I was like a real gym
nerd. I mean if you can’t tell by now, I’m quite a health nerd in general. So I was like studying
some things about nutrition, and I even did like a personal trainer course, and I was like
really—I was like my own personal trainer. It was pretty cool.
And like I’d take all my girlfriends with me and like train them as well, and worry that the gym
would think that I’m like, me having paid clients at the gym, even though they were just my
friends. Good times, good times. Um.
So that was kind of my routine for most of my young adolescent years. Um, and then as I
came into my kind of early 20s, I spent most of my time just at the gym and doing a lot of
cardio exercise. So like a lot of that standard way. And I think part of that was just also
because I was being so hard on myself and like that’s just the only thing that I accepted as
movement.
Like, don’t get me wrong, I’d do like a yoga class here or there, or like go on a hike, or I was
part of the volleyball team at uni as well. But it was—it’s a bit different. I think I started—
that’s when I kind of started to go through some stuff.
Um, and then as when I moved to New Zealand, so like around my mid-twenties, that’s when
things just got a little bit weird, hahaha. To be perfectly honest, I started to go through a lot
of stuff. Um, and while I kind of kept that routine going of like a little bit of basketball, I tried
tennis for a little while, um, did some gym and running, there was a lot of, uh, shame and just
bigger damaging issues where movement wasn’t a priority.
And it was, if anything, I was actually probably using movement to punish myself even more.
Which is really important to know—that like this is why I’m really stressing that movement
should be something that brings you joy. Because if you’re just doing it because you’re like,
oh my God I ate that cake and now I need to go for a run and burn it off because I’m such a
terrible person—like, that’s not sustainable.
And that’s not how, like, your body is listening. Your body knows what you’re doing and it
disagrees. And it’s just, it ain’t gonna help you, just, let’s put it that way.
Um, and I think my most intense movement period was when I started running a lot. So
here’s a funny story of how I got into running my first marathon.
Um, it was not long after like a really intense breakup, and I was chatting to a friend who had
signed up for the marathon here in Auckland. And I was like, oh, well if you can do it, I can do
it, ‘cause you know I’m a little bit competitive.
And so that’s what I did and started training. And I tell you what, it wasn’t probably until like a
couple months out that we were talking about like, oh, like what time do you think you’re
gonna finish, blah blah, ‘cause we obviously wanted to meet up and like celebrate at the end.
And I was like, oh, look, I’ll be happy if I finish it at all, you know?
And he was like, what? Like, what do you mean? I was like, yeah, I don’t know, like it could
take me four, five, six hours, I don’t know. Like, as long as I’m there before they close the
event, I’ll be super stoked. Because a marathon, for those of you who don’t know, it’s like
42.2k or something. Um.
And he was like, wait, you’re doing the full marathon? I was like, yeah, well that’s what you
said. You said you signed up for the marathon, so I signed up as well. He didn’t tell me that he
signed up for the half marathon. I was like, you freaking kidding me?
So here we are—he’s like training for the half, I’m training for the full. That’s how I got roped
into my first marathon. Um, but it was really fun, it was quite an experience and quite a
learning. And I think running a marathon—which, by the way, if you’re not aware, like the
human body is only designed to run for about 30k or so at a time, so anything beyond that is
really pushing the body to its extreme—um, which like was a really interesting experience of
just noticing the mind game.
And how like, if you believe you can do it, you will do it. And like getting in the flow state and
being in the zone and just, yeah. It was a really cool experience. And I did it again. I was like
hooked on the marathon drug, so to speak, you know.
I ran my second one. It was pouring torrential rain, it was horrendous, and I still did it. And I
was supposed to do my third one, but that’s when I started to go through a lot of my kind of
inner world transformations and step more into the version of who I am today, I guess.
And that’s when I started to actually soften and listen to, like, what my body needs. And
that’s when yoga started to play a bigger role in my life. And so while, uh, even these days
like I will still go for a little run, like just a couple k here and there—especially if it’s like rainy
and Piper needs a run, like I’ll just take her for a run because she can’t go play in the mud
like, and she’s just gonna slip and slide, you know.
Um, and I—so that’s how I kind of get my cardio, is either through walking and/or running.
And then doing the strength-based exercises at the gym, it just resonates with me, you know.
I enjoy it, I know what I’m doing, it’s fun, I feel the effects of it right away.
Um, and then yoga is a big part of my life too. But here and there I’ll like go and dabble in
some other practices, like Pilates, or intensity interval training, or right now I’m really eager
to try dance. I actually really wanna try burlesque dancing, which would be quite fun. I mean,
I would also love salsa, but I don’t know, burlesque is calling me. So I think that would be
pretty cool.
Um, and like I dance here in my space all the time to like just process emotions and move
some energy through my body. So, um, yeah. This is just kind of sharing with you like how we
and our preferences can change over time.
And I guess the last piece that I wanted to leave you with—and I alluded to it at the start—is
that different types of people will resonate with different types of movement. So it’s not
necessarily just what brings you joy, but you also, whether you know it or not, like your
specific type of body, mind, energy, emotion, spirit, personality, um, is more predisposed to
certain types of activity than others.
So I’m not gonna nerd out on this too much because that could be enough content for a
whole different episode. But just for now, know that you will likely gravitate more to more
masculine, Yang, active, intense kind of movement as your preferred way of movement.
Or you will more likely gravitate to more of the feminine, more of the Yin, soothing, slow,
nurturing, restorative kinds of movement. Now of course, both play a role in our life and we
likely kind of intertwine and move between the two depending on—especially as females—
our cycles, etcetera.
However, chances are that just you, your predisposition, um, does influence what you
resonate more with, but also your stress levels.
So just think of it this way, right? Like if you’re already exhausted, stressed, burnt out,
overwhelmed, overworked, barely getting enough sleep, and then you’re getting up at like
4:00 a.m. to go to a 5:00 a.m. CrossFit class, which is like pumping you with cortisol and
you’re already overflowing on cortisol—do you really think that’s sustainable?
And I say that because I know someone specifically who desperately needs just some Yin and
some rest in their life, yet they keep pushing themselves. And they wonder why they keep
crashing and burning.
So yeah, I think just start to pay attention to what you gravitate towards, but also like, are
you gravitating to it for the right reasons? Is it because you think that that’s what you should
be doing, or is it because it’s what feels good and helps you process your day and release?
Like is it energizing you or is it exhausting you?
And if it’s not what feels good, then I would just invite you to develop a beginner’s mind. Try
something new. You’d be surprised how many options there are out there for you.
So thank you so much for listening to today’s episode. I would really love for you just to
contemplate—maybe journal or maybe just have a think about—what is a way of moving
your body that brings you joy. And when you figure out what that is, how much of it in your
life do you currently do? Like, like let’s say it’s dance for example, right? Like if you love to
dance, like how often do you actually go out dancing, or even just like dance in your room or
whatever, wherever it may be, go to a dance class?
And then like how much would you like to do compared to what you’re doing? So just a
couple really interesting questions to sit with.
I am so grateful, as always, for your presence. May you always be in resonance. Sending you
so much love, and until next time, bye for now.
Alright, listen to this. I get asked by overworked, overwhelmed, burnt-out high achievers how
they can release their stress without sacrificing their productivity all the time. And that is
because I have been one of them.
I’ve been able to heal my relationship with stress all the while increasing my energy and
achieve more than ever before at the same time. So for the very first time ever—I’m so
excited about this—I am going to be pulling together and teaching a really small, intimate,
select group of students how to detox from stress so that you can say bye-bye to burnout
and overwhelm, and instead you can skyrocket your energy levels all the while being more
productive than ever before with ease.
Doesn’t that sound amazing?
So if that’s something that you’re interested in, if you are done struggling with stress and
overworking and you’d like to be a part of this special training, send me a message and let’s
have a chat. I’d love to see you there.
The views and opinions expressed by guests on Resonance are their own, and do not
necessarily reflect the views of me, Viktoria Levenberg, LVNHealth, or anyone working within
the LVNHealth brand. This space welcomes a diversity of ideas, experiences, and stories. Part
of Resonance is learning to take what aligns, and gently leaving the rest.
Also, while I am a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach and deeply passionate
about well-being, this podcast is intended for educational and inspirational purposes only.
Resonance does not substitute personalised medical, psychological, or therapeutic advice.
Always seek guidance from qualified professionals for any physical, emotional, or mental
health concerns.
