BSR Now

The knot keeps coming back because you're working the wrong tissue.

Tension doesn't sit in the muscle. It sits in the fascia: the webbing that wraps and connects everything, like the white layer inside an orange. Rub the muscle and it feels good for two days. Release the fascia and it lets go.

But fascia doesn't doesn't release the same way as muscle. It requires specific effort and you have to know where you're aiming.

I built a class that targets fascia through specific poses, and also include breath work and meditation to help you truly feel a release.

Do you have a plan for the next time something goes wrong? Do you like your plan? Are your coping mechanisms healthy? Do you understand why you feel the way you do?

You can perform, achieve, and hold things together, and certain situations can still cause the same reactions. At times it seems like no amount of insight, success, or willpower can really change these patterns that have been with you almost your whole life - But that is an illusion.

You've probably tried to feel less of something. Anxiety, shame, whatever sits in your chest at 2am. Push it down, stay busy, don't look at it.

The system that produces the pain produces everything else too. Turn it down and joy goes quiet with it. That's why numbing works and why it costs so much. So what actually helps?

Not feeling less. Feeling with more accuracy.🌟

Researchers call it 'emotional granularity'. Most people describe distress in one blurry word: bad, stressed, off. Your brain can't do anything with that, so it defaults to whatever it always does. Pour a drink. Open your phone. Snap at someone.

But when you name it exactly, this is shame, not guilt, this is dread, not stress, the brain gets something specific to work with. Tension drops. The urge to escape loosens.

Try it this week. When you catch yourself saying "I'm fine" or "I'm stressed," stop and find the real word. Write one sentence about it. Notice what happens.

That's the entry point. It's also where most people stall, because some of what you're naming has been sitting in your body for years and doesn't move on words alone.

That's where I come in. The Release Practice combines IFS, which helps you meet the parts of you carrying that weight instead of fighting them, and BSR, somatic work that releases what the body has been holding.

We all know this by now, and science backs it up - suppressing or not feeling your emotions causes high stress, physical illness, and mental health struggles. When you hide or block how you feel, your body and mind pay a heavy price.

Unprocessed emotions get trapped in the body. Breathwork combined with eccentric stretching to heal fascia and release stored tension can help you uncover stored emotions in the body and lead a healthier life.

That is why I developed BSR (Breath, Stretch, Release): I wanted to create a way for people to access and release tension to make real shifts in their every day lives.
