There are times when we are suffering internally so badly that our facade, so carefully constructed to protect ourselves, starts to crumble. At times like this we can make the choice to keep hiding from others and from ourselves, to keep pushing down the past and all its pain, or to start facing our trauma. This is the bravest thing we can do, but this is also the path that will bring us through the pain into joy again. This is the time in which we can commit to authenticity, no longer hiding behind a mask. And this is the time in which we can rediscover the beauty within us that nothing can kill, no matter what we have been through.

This internal pain can be helped with light touch therapies. We teach our students to use their hands intuitively, gently, with respect; they are facilitators not fixers. Their job is to help the client heal him/herself while holding the space for them.

If you, as a therapist or as a movement educator with hands-on training, are looking for your next step, take a look at our next Fascial Unwinding and Energy Awareness course in May 2027, which is designed to blend with most modalities and take your awareness and skill to the next level. It is now open for booking. Please visit the link for more information or to book your space - https://www.bodyinharmony.org.uk/fascia-training-courses/fascial-unwinding-energy-awareness

Have you been considering cosmetic surgery?

One of our most recent blogs explores both sides of the story - what people hope to gain, what they worry about, and how social pressure plays into the choice. What is rarely discussed, but covered in this blog, are the potential effects of the scars and resulting adhesions after the surgery. If you’re considering cosmetic surgery (or are curious about someone else’s decision), this could give you some clarity.

❓ What risks are worth knowing about?
❓ How does surgery really affect not just how we look, but how we move, feel, and heal?
❓ How do we decide whether it's worth it?

If you want an honest, thoughtful take (written with compassion, not judgement), this blog is one to read - https://www.bodyinharmony.org.uk/blog/the-pros-and-cons-of-cosmetic-surgery

FREE WORK TO YOUR SCARS WITH MY SUPERVISED STUDENTS.

Even the smallest scar can have the most unexpected effect locally and, amazingly, far away from the original site of injury. This is due to the continuity of the fascia, the connective tissue that sheathes every structure of the body so that, top to toe and back to front, we are connected - every little bit of us.

So, just as if you grab a tablecloth in one corner, the ripples spread out through the cloth, if you have a restriction in your body, which will affect the fascia, the effect can easily cascade through the tissues. The actual damage resulting will depend on your personal history - injuries, emotionally tense areas, old scars, arthritis, fibrotic areas of tissue.....every single person is unique.

With Sharon Wheeler's ScarWork we use the lightest of touches, applying a series of techniques to work on different types of scars. It's not painful. We are a professional training course provider. We look after you, our volunteers, and we supervise our students well. If you would like to learn more, take a look at the following booking form link, and maybe you'd like to join us next month, Sunday 6 - Wednesday 9, for one or two sessions? https://form.jotform.com/262241346818357

The photo below shows before and after work on someone with such severe adhesions from an old surgery, that they were due to have more surgery to correct the damage; one of our students did this work in two x one hour sessions. The surgery was cancelled. It's not always that dramatic but we have consistent first class feedback from our volunteers, and we would love to help you. And you'd be helping our students.

We look forward to helping you.

I have discussions with clients and students about the lack of 'layers' in the body. I think Gil Hedley, Integral Anatomy, below, has put it in the clearest way possible. Full fascial and structural continuity of the body, but with different textures, functions, etc. An understanding of this continuity is important when considering how scars and adhesions can affect parts of the body far from the original injury site. Read on - thank you Gil!

Once qualified in Sharon Wheeler's ScarWork, what's your next step? Hear from one of the therapists who took our Specialist Training in Pelvic and Abdominal Scarring......

"This course has been on my wish list for a while and when I heard it described as a game changer, I knew I had made the right decision. Jan, your courses affect me on a deep cellular level, challenge me as a person and a therapist and always leave me wanting more!

"The Pelvic and Abdominal Adhesions course is truly a game changer. It has given me the confidence to play, listen, investigate and feel, and I am so excited to take what I have learned back to my clients to support them.

"The way you teach, your passion and skill and love for what you do puts your courses above and beyond, and the groups of therapists you attract are always incredible."

- Louisa Sisson, Student

Scarring can have a deep and lasting impact on children; emotionally, physically, and socially. From fear and pain to self-consciousness and difficulties with touch, the effects often run far deeper than the scar itself.

In a recent blog, we explored how scars shape a child’s experience, how families can support healing, and why positive touch and acceptance matter so much.

If you work with children, are a parent, or simply want to understand this important topic, this is a must-read. Read the blog in full here - https://www.bodyinharmony.org.uk/blog/working-with-scarred-children-a-case-study
