The Body Awake

Tom Myers on Fascia, Movement, Trauma, and Integration of All That and More


Listen Later

By popular demand, and my own great interest, Tom Myers returns to The Body Awake for a second interview.

In this second round — see episode 5 for the first — we cover:

  • the nature of fascia as the body's very under-mapped "biomechanical autoregulatory system"
  • how "you" could be seen as a vessel for your digestive system to get around (at 36 min)
  • do we know what "trauma is stored in the body" means? what is memory? (at 39 min)
  • Tom's story of his own birth, and experiencing liberation from a traumatic event many, many years later (50 min)
  • a look into Tom's 1-on-1 work as a bodywork practitioner (this was of particular interest to me)
  • even a PG-13 Robin William's joke you can tell at your next cocktail party (at 35 min, 20 sec)
