This is what I have been feeling in my body recently - and something clients have been sharing too.

“I really needed that.”
“I didn’t realise how much I needed that.”

Lately I've been thinking about opposites - elections have a habit of doing that.

Then I started thinking about our yoga practices, and how we often learn to favour one thing over another:

effort over rest
movement over stillness

Sometimes I wonder if we’ve become deeply polarised in the way we think, practise, and relate to ourselves.

And if that goes against the nature of the body itself - which is always adapting through relationship, balance, and interconnection - what impact is that having on our being as a whole and our relationship with others?

A Spinal Energetics session may include subtle movement, stillness, and moments of integration - but it's not something you perform.

It's a body-led process shaped by the nervous system, at its own pace.

We often talk about nervous system regulation as something to 'do' - but I believe that it is more accurate to understand it as something the body re-learns through experience.

When we’re in prolonged sympathetic activation, it’s not just that we feel stressed, it becomes harder to shift states at all.

Rest doesn’t always feel accessible. Slowing down doesn’t always register as safe. Even when life looks calm on the outside, the internal system can still feel 'on'. This is what people often describe as feeling wired.

In my classes, I see this often.

People arrive and find it difficult to focus.
In restorative yoga, it can feel surprisingly hard to actually rest the body. In meditation, when things become still, the mind can feel louder, not quieter.

And then there are other times - where something shifts.

The same practice, the same space, but the nervous system begins to downshift, and you really feel it. People often comment afterwards; "I didn’t realise how much I needed that.”

We are not trying to force calm - we are trying to create enough safety for the body to re-learn what it feels like to not be in activation.

Once we have experienced what it feels like to not be in a constant state of activation, something becomes clearer.
We begin to notice what actually supports regulation in daily life.

Practices like restorative yoga, breathwork, or Ashtanga Yoga really help in this but also time outside, walks in the park, being in nature, how we pace our days, what we consume, our relationships etc.

Often it starts with a simple reflection - "I didn’t realise how long I’ve been holding myself in this state.”

I offer Spinal Energetics in a few different ways, depending on your needs and availability.

Each session works with the nervous system and body to support regulation and help release stored tension.

If you’re unsure which option is right for you, feel free to message me to explore what would best support you.

Sessions are available in London & online.

If you’ve come across Spinal Energetics online, you may have wondered what it actually is - or why sessions can sometimes look unusual.

When I first came across this work, I was sceptical.

Some people feel the effects straight away, others take a few sessions - for me it took a few sessions before something really shifted.

There was a moment where things opened up and I felt more clarity, more connection, and a deeper sense of ease in myself.

It’s quite difficult to put the experience into words, but there is a real depth to this work.

I now offer 1:1 Spinal Energetics sessions in Primrose Hill, London.

If you’re curious or would like to know more, you’re very welcome to message me

Once a month, we gather to lay down our weary bodies - but it's more than just rest.

We allow the nervous system to recalibrate, find space, release tension we didn't even know we were carrying, and connect with others in our virtual studio.

When we leave, we feel lighter, calmer, clearer and more grounded - and that's why we keep coming back.

This Friday 6th March, we will focus on the good and explore Lao Tzu's idea that "The supreme good is like water which nourishes all things without trying to."
