The advice I wish I could BAN FOREVER

"Brainy What-Why-How"

Your weekly nibble of science-backed goodness to help you move better and feel unstoppable.

🧠

What:

This past week alone, I’ve heard:

  • A physio say nerve flossing is only good for pain relief.

  • A doctor tell their patient to “just stop putting your arm overhead” (as if that’s a life plan).

  • A trainer agree someone “wasn’t strong enough” to lift heavier.

  • A yoga teacher swear she’d never do handstands because of chronic elbow pain.

Every time I thought: Oh, bless… people really need a crash course in the nervous system.

Because guess what? 

Not. One. Of. These. Is. True.

Why:

Applied neurology is like that cool kid no one invited to the party...but who secretly knows all the moves 💃 

Whether it’s because it’s a baby science, "too" complex, or because old-school training ignores it, most body pros are missing out. Big time.

Since diving into neurology in 2020, I see things differently:

• Nerves are the hotline between your body and brain. Tune them up and you reduce pain, but also boost strength, flexibility, balance, coordination—even rest 💪 

• Nothing is “set in stone.” The brain is ENDLESSLY adapting. If it hurts and you stop doing it, you’re teaching your body to never do it again 😱 

• Your nervous system puts up “perceived threat” speed bumps. Reduce the threat and suddenly you’re lifting heavier, bending deeper, living freer.

• Pain is your brain saying, “Something’s off.” Chronic pain? Sometimes it’s just your brain’s drama habit. You can retrain it.

How:

My next ​Applied Neurology training​ is where you’ll learn how to turn “ouch” into “oh hey!”

I won’t pretend I’m the only one teaching this, but hey I gotta shoot my shot 😃 

If you enjoy these cheeky little emails, why not hang out with me and go deeper?

It started for yoga teachers. Now it’s a full-on movement free-for-all.

Got brain-body mysteries? Spill ‘em! I’m all ears (and nerves),
