Hands-on, I can manipulate and massage you back together in a way that will relieve your symptoms, and if you choose, I can give you some tips on how to prevent the issue from ever returning...

33.Bringing life to the sleepy heart 8 November 2025 Download... main video group video What 'Awakening the spine' really is... In my intention to simplify, there hasn't been a single occasion when 'moving from the spine behind heart' hasn't ended up as the ultimate answer. Everything else I teach is to help all the parts of you that prevent this movement out of the way. When you move from the heart, and it is genuine and natural, every part of you will be involved in a supportive way. This workshop gave you things that make this experience clear to your own felt sense. < Previous Back to list Next >
- 32. All about the head | Acquaviva Yoga
32. All about the head 1 November 2025 Download... main video group video How to be strong enough to not need to hold your head... Whatever title or description i come up with for this doesn't do it justice... We hold our heads when we think, talk, look at something, even when we are 'relaxing'. And it is the main thing that prevents us from natural expressive movement from the thoracic spine and heart. This workshop built a step by step guide to awakening the spine through putting in the effort required to no longer require the head to hold itself... the outcome shows you what it feels like to move from the spine naturally. < Previous Back to list Next >
- Moving breathing and living from the Centre
I refer to this title as the ultimate healing because the majority of our restrictions and physical dysfunctions are sourced in a distortion in ourselves - born of being physically pulled away from our centre. Re-discovering the natural experience of the centred movement and breath leads to new ease and a different kind of strength.

- A meditation to set you up for every day....
Meditation is a key practice that is mostly skipped over, simply because of how difficult it is to both still the mind and remain upright. Here I offer a practical way of introducing a daily chakra meditation to your life, together with practices that will not only cause the mind to centre and become still, but it will also set you up physically for a new way of being in the world...
- Happy hips... How to truly free up the Psoas and the Illio-Psoas -
If the hips or lower back feel stiff, tight or painful in postures, the chances are that you habitually support yourself with a holding pattern of the psoas and/or illiopsoas muscles, and if you do that in an unbalanced way (if you are right- or left-footed), it leads to scoliotic holding patterns to compensate. Knowing this does nothing to help you, because trying to 'open' or 'stretch' these muscles will simply cause them to resist your efforts. The problem is that they are being given the job of supporting you whatever you are doing (including trying to stretch them). The solution is simple - take the job of support away from them by giving yourself other ways of supporting yourself. This will lead to an intense strengthening of muscles you probably don't even know you have (because they are currently not needed), but the good news is that this 'other way' can become effortless, because the muscles I am talking about are naturally take part in both support and breathing (IF you are not holding yourself up with the hips and spine). The first part will give you the direct experience of what it actually feels like to let go of the Psoas family of muscles, and what follows will develop the support you need to replace it - support that relates to the breath and the ground beneath you....

- Releasing Neck Tension: The Ultimate Guide to Freeing Up Your Neck
There are two very unusual vertebrae in the neck that are related to expression and thought - and moreover whether you are free in these vertebrae or not is dependent on how you are interacting with the world! On this short Yoga solutions podcast, I explain what I mean by this as well as give you a direct physical exploration of how you can liberate natural movement between head and neck, and awaken the thoracic spine so that neck and shoulders no longer need to suffer from the job of holding you up all day... Enjoy! and click the like button if you find some benefit. The full hour-long class exploring this topic will be available for all premium members later on today on the 'Yoga Solutions' page.
