Sphinx Movement

Let's talk about the Psoas without talking about the Psoas!
Your feet! This is where real change happens. Let me explain.

The body is a self-healing system and adapts to the demands imposed on it. This means that if you sit a lot, your body adapts to being a good chair sitter. Your HIP FLEXORS shortens, your glutes turn off, and your shoulders will turn forward, creating a tight chest and causing shoulder & neck pain.
On the flip side, if you lift weights, your body will adapt with stronger muscles and bone density. You can see the picture now.
Your feet are not different. Put your feet in shoes that are narrow, stiff, and cushiony for decades, and you will adapt:
🔸️ Your toes will lose their natural wide splay and squish together ( hammer toes, bunions, etc)
🔸️Your feet will become stiff and rigid
🔸️Your feet will lose strength and won't be able to properly support the load. This means short calves, tight hamstrings, ankle sprains, plantar fasciitis, knee pain, hip injuries, and back pain.
🔸️And forget about having a good balance with stiff and dormant feet.

Healthy movement requires strong, mobile feet with splayed toes that act as a strong base of support. And this has nothing to do if you have high or fallen arches on the foot and more about their functionality.

So, where to start??
1)Massaging your feet (self massage or check out your local reflexologist🧿 )
2) walking barefoot around the house and exposing your feet to a variety of surfaces (carpet, hardwood floor, pebbles, grass)
3) Move your feet. Work them out. This can be as simple as splaying your toes while you brush your teeth or more committed as to try TOE YOGA (I CAN HELP HERE 😉🤚🏾)
4) Wear natural footwear. The goal n is to slowly transition from unnatural towards natural shoes.

Unnatural shoes:
👠lifted heel
🥾Rigid material
👟Lots of cushion
👢Narrow toe box

Natural footwear:
✅️Flat
✅️Flexible
✅️Thin sole
✅️Wide

Of course, if you've never spent time barefoot, you'll want to ease into it just like any other activity that is new. And for those who want to turn your feet into a healthier, stronger and happier bunch, try a foot training session with this gal 🦶🏾

Do you know that goals and habits are two sides of the success coin? Good goals provide a sense of direction, and effective habits provide the mental endurance and structure to achieve those goals--and one without the other often leads to frustration and failure. Fortunately, there are several techniques to improve goal-setting skills and to form lasting good habits.

It’s almost May, and this is the most appropriate time to reflect on goals ( if any) or to brainstorm and set realistic, new strategies. Reevaluating what works and what needs to change helps us live in harmony and balance rather than making decisions out of pressure or for lack of planning and ex*****on.

I get it, life happens…to me, to you, and to everyone else out there too. There’s no perfect time to tackle strategy unless you make the time for it. Then, with little practice and the clarity provided by the tools included in this workshop, you’ll get on track with your wellness goals, finances, time management, travel list, etc.
