It’s deep in horses and humans. In humans it is the deepest anterior muscle. That’s hard to grasp. The psoas connects the pelvis to the thigh bone and its main purpose is to flex the hip as in marching.

Unfortunately with all the sitting we do these days, I see people using it to stabilize the pelvis ( hence low back pain).
Learning to release the psoas and building your core to support your low back is something I teach most of my equestrian clients.

It’s a new week

✨MONDAY MOTIVATION: Give Yourself Room to Begin Again

A new week doesn’t have to mean pushing harder, moving faster, or doing more. Sometimes, the most meaningful progress begins when we pause, take a breath, and notice how we’re moving through the world.

The Alexander Technique invites us to bring awareness to our everyday habits, release unnecessary tension, and discover a little more ease in how we move, work, and live.

This Monday, give yourself permission to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and approach the week with curiosity rather than pressure.

You don’t have to force progress. Sometimes, you just have to make room for it.

Wishing you a week filled with greater awareness, ease, and possibility.

Constructive rest

In a world that never seems to slow down, give yourself permission to pause. 🌿✨

The Alexander Technique invites you to turn inward, reconnect with your body, release unnecessary tension, and discover a little more calm in the everyday.

Sometimes, the most meaningful thing you can do is take a moment for yourself.

Such a powerful reminder from F.M. Alexander: sometimes progress isn’t about trying harder—it’s about noticing what may be getting in the way.

The Alexander Technique invites us to pause, become more aware of our habitual responses, and create space for something different to happen.
