Welcome to another episode from our Thoughts on series. For those of you who have listened to The Rewire Project episode you might remember that Tony talks about the way to create adaptation in the body in physical, and other ways is to directly stimulate the brain, hence the name Rewire Project. 

Now this doesn’t require a bunch of electrodes into the brain and some Cold War era experiment and that leads us to this episode, way back before weMove became what it is I was introduced to a couple of osteopaths who started to switch me on to working with the body in order to optimise its function. One of the two osteos was and is Troy Bradley, who based in Brighton has worked worked with top flights sports people to give them boosts in performance that almost seem like magic. The sessions I had I experienced the effects of visual acuity practices and restoring connection in the body to our sensory input of hands, feet, eyes and skin. My balance improved, my imbalances and slight twists in the body caused by years of neglect whilst running, climbing and just generally pushing through rather than listening to my body and what it was telling me.

I caught up with Troy at his practice in Brighton and we had a conversation about a few of the topics Chris and I had with Tony in LA the centre of which were that the input we give our brains determines the quality of the output in movement, thought and all areas of our lives. And in turn by improving the quality of the input we can improve our output of all of these.

The sound quality of my voice is a little distant as we only had one mic and it turned into more of a conversation, however the ideas and thoughts Troy gave were too rich to hold back, so you might have to listen a bit closer for my voice but the gold is with Troy.
