In part four: host Manoush Zomorodi explores the connection between our posture and our mood. A lot of us associate our neck and back pain with spending hours hunched over our phones and laptops.

Neuroscientist Peter Strick discusses his groundbreaking research on why exercising our core muscles lowers our stress.
