What Comes Next? A New Year of Movement, Insight, and Connection
Welcome to 2026!
Thanks for being here and sharing in this journey of learning about how the body moves!
Over the past months and years, we’ve explored the many ways muscle coordination gets disrupted — and how the Bridging® process uniquely offers a gentle, quick, and lasting reset allowing you to get back to your active life.
What to Expect in 2026
As we move into a new year, I want to share more relevant insights to help you better understand:
- The basic ways your muscles work together to support your lifestyle
- How that ability gets side-lined or shut-down
- Why these movement glitches cause pain, fatigue, or even anxiety
- Practical things you can do to help
Of course, there will be stories of how Bridging uniquely helps too.
In general, you can expect a broader multi-media approach so you can engage in the format that best resonates for you. Here are more details:
New Newsletter Topics in a Series Format
I’ve mapped out several upcoming themes that connect your day to day challenges with the events that have happened to your body. Yes, that list includes injuries, medical procedures, and early developmental glitches. These are things that may have happened recently, or years ago!
For each topic we’ll be looking at why you may still have muscle or joint issues, why you can still have effects many years later, and why there is more to consider when these disruptors occur at a young age.
Coming in January … Movement Disruptions From Respiratory Illness
Since we’re deep into the virus/flu season, January’s series will explore how respiratory illness can quietly disrupt movement — often long after you’ve recovered. See you next week with more!
Substack Live Q&A Sessions (coming in the Spring)
Substack is a media platform I also use for writing. One newer feature, Live Video, enables a way to meet in real time where we can have a short lesson together and time for your questions. If you’re interested, you can see short posts from 2025 here.
What topics are of interest with pain, injury, medical procedure effects, or development? I’d love your input as I shape this. Send me your comments!
YouTube Explanation Videos
Hard to believe, but our YouTube channel is almost four years old! If you have yet to tune in, we’ve created a popular series of videos explaining why life experiences can impact you in unsuspecting ways. This link takes you to the first in the series of “How Medical Procedures Mess Up Your Movement”. You can also watch so many wonderful case study videos; new ones are coming later this month.
Here’s to a 2026 of moving with more ease, confidence, and joy.
For fun …
For me … “What Comes Next?”
For much of 2025, I took part in a Wednesday morning writing group on Zoom. Being part of a writing group was a new experience for me.
Yes — I want to write a book. But an important part of that goal also meant this engineer needed to learn more about how to write in a variety of ways, ways that connect and engage with the reader. The group helped expand my perspectives!
Each session began with a short writing prompt to get us into the zone. The final prompt of the year, just a couple of weeks ago, was: “What Comes Next?” My response follows.
How would you answer this question? (You have four minutes — go!)
Once the cookies are baked and boxed,
Once the gifts are assembled and sent on their way,
Once the gratitude notes and gift cards are handed out…
A deep breath and a sigh.
A dinner with family,
and a raucous game of Uno…
Then off on an adventure.
Viewing the mountain grandeur
From the ground instead of air!
The snow and quiet of winter at last.
