Episode Synopsis

AMDG. St. John Paul the Great had a great love for the integration of physical activities and virtues. That passion is built into Kolbe’s approach to and curriculum for physical education. In this episode, Chris Bates and Christina Davin visit with Bonnie and Steven about how physical movement can be a daily source of joy for homeschooling families. From getting the wiggles out during class to staying active in times of year when the weather isn’t hospitable, the group discusses the importance of intentionality and opportunities to build fitness, find satisfying activities, and occasionally inconveniencing ourselves for the betterment of the whole. They also touch on how movement and activity can provide quiet time for introverts, the importance of nutrition, and the dynamics of physical limitations and adaptations.
