How the feet have a direct effect on the rest of your body

Have you ever considered your feet? Not much I hear you say, why would that be? Probably because most of your attention is in your upper body. We spend a lot of time in our heads, looking outwards, engaging in front of ourselves - whether on our phones, on the computer, driving cars, sitting on chairs & sofas.
In my youth I practiced ballet & dance regularly, later on in my late teens yoga took the forefront of my world. These disciplines broadened my movement vocabulary enabling me to build a better relationship with my feet.
Over the years I have chosen comfortable footwear, stayed away from heels, spent time barefoot and had a good relationship with the ground - mindful walking drew my attention to the different terrains from sand, to mud, rock, grass and tree roots.
Our feet are constantly taking in stimulus and this in turn feeds up into your physicality, giving rise to how you hold yourself, your posture, the parts of your body which lock out, whether or not your tilting more forwards or back and your natural tone.
Next time you’re out and about walking try becoming more mindful with your steps, perhaps try footwear that make your feet more active, engaged and stimulated, take it slowly to start with.
Being a yogi I often remind myself that my feet are my root system and the top of my head has a crown reaching for the stars’

Be grounded yet stand tall.

A client visited my home practice yesterday after his back had gone into spasm. The catalyst was picking a cushion up off the floor.

I treated him to a sports massage using a mixture of Deep tissue & Post Isometric stretches.

Post treatment he sent me this text:
'Thank you very much for today Alexandra! I could actually walk back to the car normally' 😁👍

This Saturday he's playing against the Top over 60s Padel ball player in the UK. (He's a tennis coach currently training to coach Padel)

Autumn does not rush,
it exhales in amber and gold,
teaching the soul how to let go
with dignity, with grace.
Leaves drift like whispers of old stories,
reminding us that beauty
is not meant to cling forever—
it glows brightest in its falling.
The air turns crisp,
inviting us to breathe deeper,
to listen to the silence
between each heartbeat.
Here, change is not a thief,
but a gentle teacher—
showing us that endings
can be luminous too,
and that within every fading color
a quiet beginning waits.
Autumn is the soul’s season,
a mirror of our own journey:
to surrender, to soften,
and to find light in the letting go 🍂

Virginia Woolf, from a letter written to Violet Dickinson, c. July 1907

Happy Menopause Day Ladies 💖🙏🏼
Looking forward to offering another Women's wellness (Menopause Yoga) today in my studio. It's our fourth one now ✨️🌺

Below Donna Ashworth's current post

I have this theory that the menopause is there to unpick us…

Not the real ‘us’ but the versions created by society and its superwoman expectations.

The versions created by the impact of decades of fertility hormones, childbirth, mothering, or the lack of all that.

A heart broken and rebuilt a million times over and a body completely exhausted by constantly reinventing itself to fit the mould of that particular chapter.

I think the menopause strips us bare.

Not to humiliate but to eventually FREE us.

And aren’t we so very lucky now that we have such control over HOW we rebuild.

These hormones that plague us so become ours to curate and administer.

And the biggest weapon of all is ours to brandish - SHARING.

No shame, fear or symptom can thrive in the light of our shared wisdom and experience.

The power is ours, what a thing.

And I’m not for a minute daring to say that any of this undoing is easy - but show me a phase of your life ruled by hormones that was easy, my love. We know what it is to battle, you and me.

I have this theory that the menopause is there to unpick the versions of ourselves we are far too brilliant and wise for now.

And we get to rebuild in the shape of something far more fitting…

the woman we were meant to be, all along.

There are so many others but this following of the above will bring many more your way. Isn’t that just the joy of an algorithm.
