Fascia & How to Program the Body | Keynote

Summary

This powerful talk delves into the concept of reprogramming the fascia, a connective tissue in the body that holds memories, emotions, and energy. The speaker discusses their journey from traditional healthcare to discovering a holistic approach that integrates fascia-focused movement practices to heal the body naturally. They emphasize how emotions, stress, and environmental factors affect our physical health and the importance of connecting with our body’s energy. Using tools like breathwork, movement, and intention, the speaker highlights the body's ability to reset and heal through self-awareness and reprogramming the fascia.

Takeaways

• 😀 Fascia is not just a connective tissue; it is an intelligent organ that holds memories, conducts electricity, and stores emotions.
• 😀 The traditional healthcare system is inadequate for long-term healing because it focuses on temporary relief instead of teaching individuals how to heal themselves.
• 😀 Fascia plays a critical role in holding and moving the body's muscles, tendons, bones, and organs. It needs to be the focus of movement practices for real healing.
• 😀 Movement practices like 'fascial maneuvers' are essential for resetting the fascia, and when done correctly, they can even reduce conditions like scoliosis.
• 😀 Human health today is affected by environmental factors such as chemicals, EMFs, and a lack of community or purpose. These issues require new approaches to healing.
• 😀 Our body's emotional and physical states are interconnected. Stress, negative emotions, and trauma can manifest physically in our fascia, which can affect our overall health.
• 😀 When you work on fascia and rehydrate the body, you restore balance, improve cellular function, and help reduce physical and emotional blockages.
• 😀 Fascia responds to vibration and frequency, just like water, and this can be used to reprogram the body’s cellular structure through practices like affirmations and movement.
• 😀 The body is a pressurized system, like a tube of toothpaste, and its movement, pressure, and rotation are key to releasing fascia and improving overall health.
• 😀 Self-awareness is crucial to healing. By becoming more aware of your emotions and physical sensations, you can identify negative influences and correct them before they take root in your body.
• 😀 Silica, minerals, and hydration are essential to fascia health. By adding silica and removing toxins, you can help repair the fascia and prevent further degeneration from chemicals and dehydration.

Q & A

What was the main purpose of closing the Human Garage clinic?

The clinic was closed because, while it helped people temporarily relieve pain, patients often returned to the same lifestyle that caused their issues, and the pain would return, worsening over time. The goal shifted to giving people the tools to heal themselves rather than just providing temporary relief.

What is fascia, and why is it considered more than just connective tissue?

Fascia is a complex, intelligent tissue that holds memory, conducts electricity, and can store emotions. It's not just a simple spiderweb-like structure but a dynamic system that interacts with the body on a deep, cellular level, influencing movement and emotional states.

How does fascia affect our body movements and healing?

Fascia is crucial for movement because it holds and supports muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, and organs. It facilitates the body's healing by resetting naturally, but only if the fascia itself is properly maintained and reprogrammed, which is the focus of fascial maneuvers.

What is the difference between working on muscles and fascia?

Traditional practices often focus on muscles and bones, but fascia is the key to truly reprogramming the body. Fascia is not just a passive structure; it responds to intention and can facilitate a deeper, more holistic healing process when addressed directly, using methods like fascial maneuvers.

Why is it important to work on the fascia and the emotional state simultaneously?

Fascia holds emotional memories, and unresolved emotions can create blockages in the fascia, which can lead to physical pain and dysfunction. By working on fascia and emotions together, you can release those blockages and promote healing both physically and emotionally.

How does the fascia hold memory and emotions?

The fascia contains water tubules that can break and reconnect depending on emotional states. When emotions are not processed properly, they get stored in the fascia, leading to physical tension and pain. Working with the fascia can help release these emotional blockages and reprogram the body.

How does intention influence the fascia and the healing process?

Intention plays a critical role in reprogramming fascia. When you focus on fascia during movement and healing practices, the body responds more effectively, because fascia is sensitive to intention and can facilitate deeper shifts compared to focusing on muscles and bones alone.

What are some of the environmental factors that impact fascia and overall health?

Modern-day factors like chemicals, EMFs (electromagnetic fields), poor posture (due to sitting in chairs), lack of community, and emotional suppression all negatively affect fascia and overall health. These factors can lead to dehydration of the fascia and hinder the body's ability to heal.

Why is hydration and silica important for fascia health?

Hydration is essential because fascia is primarily water-based. Silica helps rebuild tissues, including the fascia, and supports its ability to heal. Silica also helps remove toxins like metals and chemicals, which can degrade fascia function and overall bodily health.

How do emotions like fear and desire relate to physical movement and fascia?

Emotions like fear and desire govern our movements. For example, fear often blocks energy flow, particularly in areas like the bladder, which is associated with fear. By addressing the fascia and releasing these emotional blockages, people can reset their bodies and clear these energies, leading to better health and movement.
