In this episode I talk with Steve Haines - bodyworker and author of the 'Really Strange' graphic books on pain, trauma, anxiety and touch.  I really enjoyed riffing with Steve on topics close to both our hearts; including the sensory role of fascia, language and metaphor to promote health and healing, and athletic performance. We look at that essential key; which is what it means to feel safe….something Steve’s books really help to promote.

You can find out more about Steve and his work on his website: bodycollege.net

Almost 20 years ago, I studied archetypal patterns and Sacred Contracts with Dr Caroline Myss. What became apparent was that every single one of us expresses ourselves physically, emotionally and spiritually through archetypal shapes and patterns of body and behaviour. It became a wonderful resource to all my teaching in bodywork and movement therapies. Now, for the first time, we have created a course in which you can map your own Archetype Profile – of psyche and soma. When they come together, you will find clarity and confidence with your own inner compass!! 

Here is a link to find out more and join us on the course:

This interview with Mina Blair is one that I hope leads you to read her beautiful book "Not for the Last Time" (available on Amazon). Mina, as a mother of two girls, in a corporate world, got on with her life (as any of us do) to manage her family and pay the bills. The book is an exquisite story of the courage to stay with life, whatever happens, finding your way from the inside out. Mina is clear, concise and relentlessly "real" in describing her journey from corporate life, through counceling, to becoming a yoga teacher. We met some of the same teachers along the way, in our respective journeys - and Mina (without being mawkish or dramatising anything) led me back via different routes through so many of the same fears and features of my own story. I didn't put her book down until I had finished it - and I am left in awe of this gorgeous, dedicated woman who knows who she is and yet, every day, lives in wondering what that means on the mat. (For herself and her "mat-chat" clients! Brava Mina! Brava - delighted to know you.

It was a pleasure to interview Jan Trewartha, Director of the British Fascia Symposium and creator of The Fascia Hub. It is an exciting time to be part of these events as the Fascia Hub has now opened its Membership (go to their website for more information) where you can dive deeper with lots of bonus material, insider interviews and events that don't get to the public domain. This episode will give you the very human back story to Jan and her dedicated work in the field. It will inspire all fascia fans to join in with this delightfully varied and informative "HUB" of all things related to Fascia....and of course, putting it into practice. Jan's hallmark is her care of the practitioners - as you will hear! Thank you Jan!!

I loved interviewing Sarah Cox as someone whose life is devoted to empowering others. On so many levels. Sarah embodies the alchemical principle of "transforming the lead of our wounds into the gold of our gifts" (to quote Caroline Myss) Her work (with Zephorium products) is worldwide and exceptional - yet it came from a deep inner strength and determination to survive and thrive and serve others. Here is why she had to give up her passion for ballet and turn it into helping others move forward in their own lives. It is such a beautiful example of someone removing pain and improving performance against the odds of all sorts of physical conditions. You might find it as inspiring as I did.

This podcast is all about understanding fascia and the four different ABC Masterclasses we are offering. What difference can they make to you? We look at the myofascial matrix-in-motion and at giving you the "fasciategrity code" to understand Living Tensegrity.  Then we spend time on EmbrYOU, the part of you that doesn't have to remember anatomy; but knows from your life-long internal network, how you self-assembled into a unique expression of the remarkable human blueprint. Each of us did!! So imagine having a way to body read that, in Posture Profiling? After all "what makes us all the same, is that every single one of us is unique". This soft graph is the key! I would so love for you to come and join us. Thursday evenings 7-9pm UK time, 1, 8, 15 and 22 July - starting this week with a gorgeous offer for you.

United we stand...and we are not the only ones! Trees have always fascinated me. The more we learn about them, the more we appreciate their shapes and functions, the more we can learn about ourselves. In this short episode, we consder Peter Wohlleben's book The Hidden Life of Trees and I read a short excerpt which is about improving "tree performance" and their reliance on light and water. He had me at the chapter title "United we stand, Divided we Fall" Guess what?

This episode is an interview with Kylie Hennessy, someone who fascinates me because she has so effectively combined science, therapy and a deep respect for people in her mulit-disciplinary career and practice. Art meets science in this gentle conversation about what it is, in Kylie's experience, that is happening at a molecular level, biochemically, in the body - and how that knowledge is used to help people, appropriately, through yoga therapy or other suitable interventions. We get to talk about Candace Pert and Molecules of Emotion and how significant a state of presence can be in the art and science of a multi-disciplinary practice. It was such a delight to share this time with Kylie, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
