Today someone asked me what being 'embodied' means? and what it means to practice work to improve 'embodiment.

As a Physiotherapist and Psychologist sometimes I use words and phrases and forget that someone might not have a concept on the meaning.

So, here I'm attempting to give a simple explanation, with examples on how we used to appraise for 'embodied skills' years ago, and how things have changed.

Let me know is any of this resonates.

Many people have problems with Osteoporosis, and as Founder of Better Bones for Life ™ and OsteoProSisters I'm frequently asked to answer questions.

Here are 5 commonly asked questions and answers.

Remember if you are based in the UK you can book a 20 minute review appointment to discuss options. Here is the link 

FAQ 1 : “If my DEXA scan is ‘okay’, do I still need to worry about fractures?”

FAQ 2 : “What are the earliest signs my bones might be getting weaker?”

FAQ 3: “What’s the single most effective exercise for bone health after 50?”

FAQ 4 : “Should I take calcium and vitamin D?”

FAQ 5 “What are the biggest ‘bone thieves’ after 50?”

This podcast is following up on a BBC Radio program question they asked me to address and I recorded this afterwards. The podcast briefly outlines why it is important to have a digital detox. 

If it's not something that you've come across before then have a listen in and consider trying it out every now and again. If you have a family you can maybe have one evening a week where you set aside an extra hour and put in place a digital detox for the whole family.

It's a bit radical maybe to consider switching off the internet, switching off your phones and screens etc and finding other things to do. It's a great opportunity to read books, have conversations, catch up and have a family meal and also to spend time literally relaxing without the pressure of our never-ending system of screens.

Have a listening you might learn something and you might be interested in trying something out at home have a great day 

love you J xx

This podcast today introduces you to a wonderful new development.

2025 is a fascinating time for me, and I hope you pick up the excitement in my voice. I've been unable to work freely and have time available to myself for nearly the last 40 years. Those of you who have children will understand the constraints that that can impose.  On top of that, I also had four Border Collies, and I'll tell you more about that in this Podcast episode.

However, for now, I hope you pick up the excitement and enthusiasm in my voice as I look forward to seeing you in person in London UK and helping you.

Based in the UK, I'm often asked to go onto BBC Radio to answer questions listeners have raise about sleep or dreams. Invariably I create a series of notes before the broadcast and only a small amount goes out on air. 

Instead of letting this information sit in a folder, I thought " I wonder whether this question might be one more people have?". 

This question was "Why do we remember strange events that took place in our dreams?

Apparently listeners phoned in and gave some quite extraordinarily 'weird' accounts of activities in their dreams !

When I went on air I wanted to answer the question, in a sensible evidence based way.

Hope you enjoy this episode and as always do let me know your thoughts.

My online practice help with your sleep is www.HowToSleepBetterClinic.com If you have trouble sleeping you can been a 30 minute consultation online.

Better Bones: The Anatomy of Movement

When I shared:

How our “invisible” bones and posture quietly support balance and wellbeing

The surprising power of your calf muscles—the “second heart”—for strong movement and healthy circulation

Simple, science-backed strategies to help you move well and build better bones, every day.

Due to time constraints I recorded 3 short lessons to serve as an introduction to Body Sensing and Movement Awareness (BSMA) and it's application to bone health and circulation. 

The recording is in total around an hour, however this is divided into:

Lesson 1 Your Feet in Contact With the Earth ( stops at around 27 minutes) 

Lesson 2 Wake Your Feet for Walking (From 27 minutes to around 50 minutes)

Lesson 3 Axis Flow Like a Fish (From around 50 minutes to 70 minutes) 

During the recording I make reference to some diagrams used in the presentation, which are not yet available for general viewing.

This is a question many of my client's ask. 

When they get their T score, test results they start to compare with their friend's.

Sometimes they wonder why they're osteoporotic and their friend is osteopenic, Specifically, a T-score between -1 and -2.5 on a DEXA scan signifies osteopenia.

Under -2.5 is osteoporotic and above -1 is considered 'normal' / OK.

Are there any clues in their past?

Well in this podcast I just cover off a short explanation about lifestyle in childhood, adolescence and during 20's to 50's.

Hope you enjoy
