Hi Reader! December is the perfect month for giving—and I’m sharing a gift that might be a little unexpected. If you or someone you care about struggles with sciatic pain, today I want to give you a little twist (or shall I say a side bend) on a classic move. Sometimes, the best way to ease pain is to disrupt the usual routine and find your own path to relief. Is your sciatic nerve cranky right now—sending fiery, burny, sharp pain down your leg? I’ve got a playful, effective way to address it: what I’m calling a disruptive move for sciatic nerve relief. Meet Pelvis Presley—my new sidekick making their debut on camera! Pelvis and I are here to help you explore your sciatic nerve in a fun, informative way. Think of it as a “swiveling sciatica” experience—your nerve gets to move in a new direction, side to side, instead of just the usual forward and back. Here’s the video in a nutshell:
Then, don’t miss watching the second exercise—it’s a playful side-bend that shows your nerve a whole new way to move! The goal? Awareness. Understanding where your nerve lives, what movements help, and how small changes can make a big difference. Try it for yourself, and then hit reply to let me know how it feels! Here’s to giving yourself the gift of movement and relief this December. Stay well and happy moving, Lisa P.S. Swivelling Sciatica has made its on-camera debut, thanks to Pelvis Presley. Hopefully your sciatic nerve doesn’t start singing—but if it swivels, that’s a win in my book. P.S.S. Ready to move with confidence and ease your pain?

Good morning Reader, Before you scroll any further, let’s pause for just a moment. Take a breath in… and a breath out. That’s it. You’ve already started. This month, I wanted to offer you simple gifts—something you can return to anytime you feel rushed, tense, or overwhelmed. It’s a breathing practice called box breathing, and I walk you through it in a short video (less than five minutes). Start with the Breath Box breathing is easy to follow. You imagine the shape of a box—four equal sides....
Hi Reader, This weekend, I was in the dojo listening to my sensei talk about commitment, and she shared an analogy that hit home. Picture a relay team on a track. Each runner completes their 100m, but the true moment of responsibility is the baton pass. You run your part, hand it off, and then watch your teammate carry it forward. Your job is done—you’ve done your part, and now it’s up to them. Swerve Track And Field GIF by Brook Dorff This is exactly how I work with my clients. I stand...
