Physical Healing is important, but we cannot underestimate the effect the mind has on our tension and stress levels.

Susie says: …’In these unprecedented times it becomes essential to learn practical ways to calm and align our minds...’

These practices aim to help you to:
· Be less tense and reactive, feel calmer and more in charge of your life.
· Relax more, worry less,
· Develop resilience, better manage difficult situations,
· Find balance in your daily activities, improve relationships
· Bring more joy into your life
· Think more clearly, sleep better
· Find an inner space of calm to keep returning to
· Feel more assertive, more confident, clearer about what you want,
· To be Able to establish clear and appropriate boundaries

With time and practice, it’s possible to deeply transform old patterns and limitations,
and experience inner peace, abundance and fulfilment.
This workshop will give you a taste of some meditation and mindfulness practices.

CELEBRATING NAIDOC week in Australia! Medicine Leaves 111. By artist Stevie Jean O’Chin 2019

Stevie Jean O’Chin is an Aboriginal artist of the Kabi Kabi, Waka Waka & Koa tribe on her father’s side and Yuin Nation on her mother’s side. Her works are inspired by her surroundings and the stories told by parents and family elders.
We celebrate the creativity, healing and knowledge being passed to all, by elders past and present.

This year’s theme is ‘ Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up!
The theme is an acknowledgement that a genuine commitment to achieve institutional,
structural and collaborative reforms for Aboriginal and Torres strait Is people must be accompanied by action.
We look forward to seeing the next steps toward just outcomes and healing for Indigenous people in Australia

The Amazing Human Nervous System!

They blow the minds of health professionals all around the world with
Latest research on best pain management, pelvic pain, healthy nervous system and facts about the incredible complexity of our nervous system.
There are many practical tips and implications for the clinic.
Variability, precision, constant rapid prediction and re balancing are a normal part of our biology on a microscopic level.

The ‘Explain pain’ book is a resource Susie lends out to her clients… anyone know who has it at the moment!?

Exercise is a big part of ‘ neuroplasticity ‘ (Ability of the nervous system to change) and good health, including healing.

Do you know where your ‘CORE’ muscles are? Are they working well to support you during the day?
Real Time Ultrasound Biofeedback can show you how these muscles work! You can make an appointment with the physiotherapists at Activate Physio. Evolution Pilates to assess your deep abdominal and back muscle function.
Pelvic floor muscle function can be indirectly assessed non invasively via placing the ultrasound on the lower abdominal above the p***c bone. See the ‘lift’ of the bladder neck to get the idea of the correct muscle contraction of the area.
Who can benefit from Real time ultrasound biofeedback ?:
* After episodes of low back or pelvic area pain * post partum before starting exercise, especially Pilates. * athletes , dancers and trainers wanting to check their muscle control and fine tune performance Challenge your core with our specially tailored exercise sessions after your assessment!
