I'm not a Burning Man "Lady", but this 7 minute clip is sparkly, colourful and fun! It also shows the immense creativity us humans have. An EASY watch, yet still thought provoking. Enjoy! Irene. http://www.youtube.com/embed/ahv_1IS7SiE
Yesterday was a big pause. I'm back from NYC and it seems airline travel wipes me out much more these days than a few years ago. My system is a heck of a lot more sensitive to being pressurized. Perhaps it is 'age', but I'm quite sure it is [...]
Click here to re-tweet "This video is lovely and just what the doctor ordered on this last day of August. (What are you doing to grow today?)" I've always equated September with the start of the year. http://vimeo.com/18305022 It must be the whole back to school thing I think? [...]
I get a lot of the same questions from folk, trying to 'figure out' what I do, or how 'I work'. It's not an easy bunch of questions to answer because everyone is different and we all have different experiences with body-work, body-based forms of psychotherapy, movement classes etc. [...]
Click here to re-tweet Achy Back and Knees? Why getting more flexibility and "smartness" in those ankles will help ease the ache (trust me on this one!) If anyone knows about achy knees it's me. Most chronic aches and pains, especially in the knees and lower back, [...]

I ended Part 1: Refining the Somatic Practices: The Story of Jenny and Susan, with this question: "How can we evolve our somatic practices to meet the changing needs of people, not to mention the diversity of people coming to us, especially in a class format?" First of all, [...]
In my life, two major (health-related) events have catalyzed my quest for learning very detailed ‘stuff’ about my own body and various healing modalities and medicines. The first were a handful of pretty bad knee injuries that weren’t getting better with conventional therapies (actually the knee pieces got fixed [...]
One of the things I am really excited about is bringing in other bloggers and highlighting them on The Human Groove. It seems my generation (those born somewheres between 1975/73ish to 1982/85ish) are seeing the importance of sharing, collaborating and not being afraid to trade our secrets. Openly. I [...]
