"Returning to my somatic movement class tonight after a one-week hiatus.

If I’m honest, arriving home after a long week, slipping into my pajamas, receiving cuddles from Piper and Tilley, and zoning out to some mindless TV felt far more inviting than heading back out the door. Comfort was calling loudly.

But something deeper in me — the part that honours commitment, growth, and the quiet promises I make to myself — whispered, Go.

So I went.

As I entered the space, I could feel the shift almost immediately. My nervous system began to soften. The muted lighting, the faint hum of calming music in the background, the intentional quiet — it all felt like an exhale.

I made my way to my six-foot parcel of floor, unrolled my mat, and silently applauded myself for showing up.

Tonight we are exploring movement — and the question:

What does the way I move say about me?

I’m curious.

I’m listening.

I’m willing to discover.

We begin belly to the ground.

Hands press into the floor.

A gentle rise through the chest.

Then to the knees — mimicking the early rhythm of crawling.

Immediately I am brought back to the video we had just watched — the first year of life. The miracle of it. Our bodies awakening. Seeing. Reaching. Lifting our heads. Rolling. Crawling. Standing. Walking.

And doing it all on our own.

No one instructing.

No one directing.

No one saying, “Now do this.”

We were simply wired to explore.

We figured it out in our own timing.

So profound.

Having raised three children, I witnessed development — and yet tonight I realized I had never truly seen it this way. Never paused in awe at the orchestration of it all.

And here I am at sixty years old — stunned by the miracle of it.

Next, we simply walk.

Move in whatever way feels good.

Explore.

Shift.

Add obstacles.

At one point, I notice we are all walking in the same direction, in a line.

What does that mean?

Are we conditioned to follow?

To align?

To move together?

To feel safer that way?

I wonder.

Then we pair up — performer and observer.

Ah.

This is my sweet spot.

Connection.

We begin with a gentle, supportive hug. A simple gesture — yet it feels like an agreement: I see you. I am with you.

The performer moves through suggested emotional states — joy, anger, ease.

Our eyes stay fixed on one another as best we can. We both recognize how intense constant eye contact can be. How it shifts. How it softens or tightens depending on the emotion being embodied.

One thing I notice:

The natural propensity to smile.

Even while performing anger.

Even while holding intensity.

The body seems to want to return to warmth.

This evening has been a journey.

So simple.

Yet so complex.

It awakens something in me — observation, wonder, awe.

What miracles we are.

Nothing within us by accident.

Every system working in exquisite unison.

And yet I wonder…

What dysregulates us?

Is it life?

Is it trauma?

Is it neglect?

Is it disconnection from this original intelligence?

I am deeply enjoying this journey.

And I feel a tinge of sadness knowing there is only one class left.

I don’t want it to end.

I find myself pondering:

How do I continue this exploration?

How do I stay in conversation with my body this way?

How do I honour this awakening?

I want more."

Workshop # 3 of 6. Theme: "AM I SAFE?" This is the question our Autonomic Nervous System asks. Depending on the answer, the appropriate response gets created and supported by the body. Learning to recognize what and how Safety looks and feels like is valuable when seeking to cultivate regulation through life's stressors. Below is a testimonial from this workshop. Thank you to all the participants for simply showing up and remaining curious.

Week 3 of My Journey — Expressed
Tonight’s somatic movement class was a pleasant surprise. Even the floor felt gentler — and I can’t help but wonder if the stretching, the practice, the simple act of showing up again and again… is already doing its quiet work.
The theme tonight was “Am I safe?”
And honestly… I am.
The bond forming among the seven strangers in the room is palpable. We’ve all arrived carrying our own bags — thoughts, feelings, self-judgments. We place them down in different ways, but we’re all doing the same brave thing: coming back to ourselves.
For me, there was a flutter in my chest… anxiety stirring — maybe just residue from the day. I came seeking calm and relaxation. The room held that promise: muted lighting, soft music, a quiet kind of zen. Each person releasing their day in their own unique way, landing in the present moment the best they can.
But I was also fighting a severe case of heartburn.
And that sensation takes me somewhere.
It was my most significant sensation prior to my heart attack in 2023, so my mind couldn’t help itself — linking heartburn to flutter, flutter to anxiety, anxiety to old fear. The story tried to write itself.
So I did what I’m learning to do.
I parked those thoughts.
I closed my eyes.
And I followed the instructor’s direction: return to the breath.
Tonight, I needed my eyes closed — not to shut the world out in a harsh way, but in a protective way. Like pulling a blanket around myself. I needed to go within. I needed my inner strength.
And then… ahhh. There it was.
I found it.
My calm. My zen.
A settling.
A softening.
A sense that my body is capable — that I can tap into it, trust it, work with it. Not perfectly… but truly.
It was beautiful.
And in that quiet, steady moment, I silently celebrated my journey — not because everything felt easy, but because something inside me shifted.
Tonight, I felt safe.
And that matters more than I can explain.

Dear clients, this is why I ALWAYS begin with Structural Myofascial Release techniques. See for yourself... 😊

Everyone’s obsessing over fascia now - hydration protocols, loading strategies, fascial training.

But if your fascia still looks like the right side of this image after all that work, here’s what you’re missing:

Fascia doesn’t create your posture. Fascia ADAPTS to your posture.

That dense, irregular tissue on the right exists because your body has been compensating for years.

And compensation patterns aren’t created by dehydration or poor training - they’re created by faulty signals from your feet affecting your balance system.

Here’s what’s actually happening:

When the pressure on your feet is uneven (one foot collapsed, weight shifted to one side), your inner ear detects that your body is tilted.

Your brain immediately sends signals down your spine telling specific muscles to tighten and hold you upright.

This happens automatically. Every second. For years.

Your fascia then wraps around these constantly tight muscles - getting dense, stuck, and locked in the exact places your body keeps bracing to stay balanced.

You can foam roll, hydrate, and stretch all day, but if your feet are still sending uneven signals, your brain will keep forcing the same muscle tension.

The fascia is just following orders from your brain.

The visual on the right isn’t a fascia problem. It’s a balance problem showing up in your fascia.
