I just completed a certificate with Tom Myers who wrote Anatomy Trains. Fascia continues to cause me wonder and awe.
Did you know…. Fascia forms 15 days after conception as one chain. Myers likened it to origami as it folds and unfolds on itself until the final part is formed. The cleft of the upper palette. Our entire fascia system is connected. So fascinating.

I found this video and thought I would share. It might be worth a try. I struggle with claims of root causes since the body is layered in its ability to adapt. That being said, I talk with my clients regularly about what to do regarding a shallow breath, a head drawing forward, etc. and we walk through a breath work process to aid the body and talk about the tight muscles. I hope you find this helpful.

On a personal note: I am a mother of 5. Today is my second son's birthday. He would have been 24 today. He died of brain cancer when he was eight. The grief is in my body. I can feel it in my shoulders and neck today. The beauty that comes out of my pain is what I give to my clients. I forget that connection at times. This week I was reminded of it as I worked on my clients. It was my clients' gift to me. Grief and gratitude blend to create a beautiful moment. Thank you to all my clients who shared themselves with me this week.

Did you know that fascia, your body's connective tissue, transmits neurochemicals like seratonin and dopamine? Yes, it is true.
