Block Therapy, Fascia & Flow: Why Your Body Can't Heal What It Can't Release with Deanna Hansen What if your pain, stiffness, poor recovery, hormone resistance, or "mystery inflammation" isn't coming from weak muscles, aging joints, or overtraining—but from dehydrated, compressed fascia? In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I'm joined by Deanna Hansen, creator of Block Therapy®, to unpack the missing link in healing, performance, and longevity: your fascial system. Fascia is not just connective tissue—it's a sensory organ, communication highway, and drainage system. And when it becomes compressed from stress, repetitive training, injuries, sitting, or breath restriction, everything downstream suffers. That includes: Lymphatic flow Circulation and oxygen delivery Hormone signaling Nervous system regulation Detox and waste removal Pain-free movement and recovery In true FLOW Foundation™ fashion, we explore why you can't "train harder" or supplement your way out of a body that can't move, hydrate, and release. In this episode, we cover: What fascia really is—and why it's not passive tissue How chronic stress, endurance training, and aging compress fascia Why lymph has no pump (and how fascia is the pump) The connection between fascia, breath, vagal tone, and inflammation How Block Therapy® helps rehydrate tissues and restore flow Why aggressive workouts, detoxes, and even HRT can backfire when fascia is stuck How gentle, intentional decompression prepares your body to adapt, heal, and perform Why this matters for high performers and aging athletes: If you're: Doing "all the right things" but not seeing results Struggling with lingering pain, stiffness, or slow recovery Feeling inflamed, puffy, tight, or restricted Sensitive to supplements, training, or hormone therapies This conversation may completely change how you approach your health. Because nothing detoxes, heals, or adapts if it can't move first.
When it comes to feeling better, many of us instinctively start with our minds. We think about our thoughts, our beliefs, our stress levels. But what if a huge part of our emotional and psychological experience is actually being held in our bodies – quite literally – in a remarkable tissue called fascia? This week, I'm joined by Jason van Blerk, one of the co-founders of Human Garage - a global self-care movement that aims to inspire 1 billion people to heal themselves, through simple, accessible movement practices, that they call Fascial Manoeuvres. In our conversation, we explore what fascia actually is, why modern science is only just beginning to catch up with what many practitioners have observed for decades, and how emotions and past experiences may be stored in our physical structure. Jason also shares how different areas of the body seem to relate to different emotional patterns, why posture and mood are so tightly linked, and how changing one can often influence the other. We also talk about stress, and why so many of us feel tense, disconnected, and stuck in our own lives and Jason explains how simple rotational movements, combined with specific breathing patterns, can help “unwind” the body, reduce stress, and leave you feeling lighter, calmer, and grounded. The thing I love the most about Human Garage's philosophy is that they want to empower people to heal themselves. This is not about needing lifelong treatment, or becoming dependent on a therapist or HCP - it's about learning a set of practical moves that you can use anywhere, anytime AND with no equipment, to start healing your body and calming your mind.

The journey of midlife often means navigating new aches, unexplained fatigue, and questions about how our bodies are really aging. What if the way we feel,from pain to anxiety to energy, has less to do with "getting older" and more to do with what's happening deep in our cells and connective tissues? This episode brings practical clarity to a confusing topic: fascia, block therapy, and how decompressing our bodies from the inside out could shift the way we age. Journalist and host Natalie Tysdal welcomes expert Deanna Hansen, founder of block therapy and educator on cellular aging and detoxification. Deanna's grounded insights help demystify fascia, the tissue that connects every cell, and why its health matters more than we realize. If you've ever wondered about lingering pain, stiffness, or why common wellness advice sometimes falls flat, this conversation brings new options and hope. From her decades of clinical experience and personal transformation, Deanna shares gentle, realistic ways women can care for their bodies at any age—no fitness fads required. What you'll learn: • Why fascia health is crucial for pain, aging, inflammation, and overall wellbeing in women over 40 • The true difference between surface treatments (like massage, exercise) and deep fascia decompression • How breathwork and small daily practices influence detox, energy, and even weight loss • Simple, at-home techniques using a block, towel, or even your hands and feet to support fascia health (including travel) friendly options • How midlife women can start realistic self-care using Deanna's free resources, without needing a specialist or advanced tools For women in midlife, clarity is power. Understanding fascia and cellular decompression doesn't require hype or complicated routines. Instead, it provides tangible steps for feeling better, staying mobile, and aging with more comfort, not just managing symptoms, but changing the story of your health. This episode honors your intelligence and gives you grounded tools rooted in real science and lived experience.

Does fascia store emotional experience - or is there something more nuanced at play?Drawing on somatic healing, bodywork therapy and fascia science, Joanne looks at how our perceptions and emotional landscape influence our body's tissue over time. But rather than framing fascia as something that simply “stores trauma,” she invites a more nuanced view of this incredible tissue as a dynamic, responsive field reflecting how we live, the way we move and what we feel.You'll also hear how embodiment practice and cultivating aware presence can lead to subtle yet powerful shifts in body organisation — offering pathways for healing, integration, and change.
A quick note before we beginThis year, I'm doing something I've wanted to do for a long time.I want to start this year by sharing something a little different.After four years of Live Well Be Well, I'm introducing regular solo episodes. It's taken me a long time to get here. Not because I didn't have things to say, but because it's taken a lot of belief in myself to sit here and share my own thoughts, reflections, and opinions, alongside the voices of the people I speak to on the show.These episodes aren't about giving answers or telling you what to do. They're about making sense of the patterns that keep showing up — in science, in health, and in ourselves.And I feel incredibly privileged to say that. I speak to some of the most respected, iconic people in this field a few times a week, and over the years, I've accumulated such a breadth of knowledge through those conversations. That breadth really matters when it comes to health, because nothing exists in isolation.These solo episodes are a way for me to distill all of that. To share what's staying with me, what's shaping the way I think, and what's been on my mind each month.I also want this to feel like a conversation. Use the comments. Ask me questions. Tell me what you want to hear more about. These episodes, and this space, are where I want to respond.Love, Sarah Ann
What if the way you move could directly influence how well you age? In this episode of Growing Older Living Younger, Dr. Gillian Lockitch is joined by movement specialist and chiropractor Dr. Edythe Heus to explore how intentional, brain-engaged movement can become one of the most powerful tools for longevity. Drawing on decades of clinical experience, Dr. Heus explains how subtle changes in movement reorganize fascia, enhance balance, sharpen cognition, and reduce fall risk. This conversation reframes exercise not as punishment, but as a playful, intelligent practice that supports vitality, resilience, and lifelong mobility. Dr. Edythe Heus is a chiropractor and movement innovator with more than 20 years of clinical experience specializing in applied kinesiology, functional neurology, and fascial health. She is the creator of REV6: A Revolution in Motion, a science-based brain-body training system designed to improve posture, balance, mobility, and cognitive engagement through sequenced, multidimensional movement. Her work bridges elite athletic performance, rehabilitation, and healthy aging, including seated and standing programs for older adults and assisted-living populations. Episode Timeline 00:00 – Welcome and introduction -Dr. Gillian Lockitch introduces the episode and reframes movement as a longevity practice rather than a fitness goal. 03:12 – From chiropractic care to redefining movement Dr. Heus shares her professional journey and explains how clinical kinesiology revealed gaps in traditional exercise approaches. 09:04 – Movement, neurology, and epigenetic potential - The conversation explores how complex movement patterns influence neural pathways, efficiency, and long-term vitality. 10:53 – Fascia as a whole-body communication network - Dr. Heus explains why fascia must be trained sequentially rather than in isolated segments. 13:19 – Fascia, energy, immunity, and pain relief. Real-world clinical stories illustrate how fascial manipulation transforms pain, mobility, and systemic function. 18:09 – Play, novelty, and perceived risk in movement - The role of instability and sensory engagement in keeping the brain present, curious, and resilient. 20:49 – Fall prevention and training eccentric strength - Why descending movements, foot sensation, and multi-planar training are essential as we age. 22:47 – Dance, cognition, and brain engagement - A discussion on why partner dance may be protective against cognitive decline and dementia. 27:29 – Equipment and accessibility for older adults - What participants need to begin REV6 safely at any age or ability level. 31:56 – Practical steps listeners can start today - Simple mindset shifts and movement experiments to introduce novelty, instability, and integration. 34:09 – Special offer and closing reflections - A limited-time REV6 promotion and final thoughts on aging with confidence and curiosity.

Joanne is joined by clinical anatomist John Sharkey to unpack why stretching, fascia and strength are so often misunderstood in modern fitness, rehabilitation and movement training. Together they examine how misread science can lead to harmful assumptions about flexibility, myofascial release and long-term tissue health.The conversation centres on a widely discussed research paper on long-duration static stretching and strength. Joanne and John carefully clarify what the study does and does not show, exploring why increases in muscle girth do not automatically equate to functional strength, and how neural adaptation, fluid shifts and injury repair are often mistaken for true training effects.They discuss fascia science, biomechanics, functional movement and therapeutic exercise through a clinical lens, highlighting the dangers of extrapolating extreme laboratory conditions into everyday practice. This episode challenges common flexibility myths and reframes stretching as a question of physiology, neurology and context, not force or endurance.This conversation will be especially relevant for movement teachers, physiotherapists, manual therapists, trainers and anyone interested in fascia training, mobility exercises and therapeutic movement. It offers a grounded, nuanced perspective on how the body adapts and why better questions matter when interpreting research.The paper discussed is ‘Influence of Long-Lasting Static Stretching on Maximal Strength, Muscle Thickness and Flexibility', 2022.If this episode sparks questions or reflections, we invite you to share them in the comments on our YouTube channel, where we love hearing from you and we always respond.SIGN UP TO THE JOANNE AVISON NEWSLETTER Simply scroll down to ‘Join Our Collective' and pop in your details.

In this reflective festive episode, I explore fascia, wholeness and the magic of awareness through lived experience, embodiment and deep listening. As interest in fascia, consciousness and embodied practice continues to grow, I invite you to look beyond data and analysis and return to the body as an already whole, living system.Drawing on more than thirty years of work in anatomy, embryology, manual therapy and movement education, I reflect on fascia as the medium through which awareness is expressed. Rather than seeing the body as a collection of parts to be fixed or optimised, this episode speaks to fascia as the connective field through which sensation, perception and meaning arise. This exploration weaves together moments from my own life, reflections on modern measurement and technology, and a deeper inquiry into what it means to be embodied and aware. From embryonic development and cellular continuity to breath, sound and subtle movement, I explore how awareness is not something we need to acquire, but something we can learn to notice and trust again.This episode is an invitation to slow down, sense more clearly and reconnect with the quiet intelligence that is already present within your living body. I hope you get a few moments to reflect and enjoy being you during the festive season, and as we greet the New Year.SIGN UP TO THE JOANNE AVISON NEWSLETTER Simply scroll down to ‘Join Our Collective' and pop in your details.

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. Today's conversation is with Kim and Holly from CFT Global, the leaders carrying forward Craniosacral Fascial Therapy, a modality that blends craniosacral therapy, myofascial release, and oral-structural work into one unified system.We explore why fascia is not just connective tissue, but an intelligent communication network that holds tension, trauma, and adaptation patterns. From infants struggling after birth, to adults with migraines, brain fog, concussions, and chronic stress, CFT works by restoring movement—movement of the cranial bones, movement of cerebrospinal fluid, and movement of the nervous system back toward safety.What struck me most is this: CFT doesn't force the body to heal. It listens. By following the body's innate wisdom, the nervous system shifts into parasympathetic regulation, allowing digestion, detoxification, emotional processing, and cognition to improve naturally. This episode is a deep dive into why healing is not about doing more, but about creating the conditions where the body can finally do what it already knows how to do.Episode Highlights[00:00] – Craniosynostosis, infant skulls, and why cranial plates must move for brain growth[02:16] – What Craniosacral Fascial Therapy actually is (and how it's different from CST)[04:11] – Cognitive clarity, emotional shifts, and whole-body effects of fascial release[06:34] – The origins of CFT: osteopathy, myofascial release, and oral structures[08:29] – Why head pressure persists even when labs “look normal”[10:12] – Tongue ties, airway dysfunction, and the overlooked craniodental system[13:29] – Weston Price, epigenetics, and how modern environments reshape facial structure[17:27] – Why releasing a tongue tie without bodywork can create new problems[23:10] – Are cranial bones really fused? Debunking a long-held medical myth[25:48] – Understanding the “brain cycle” and what zero brain motion means[31:23] – Vagus nerve regulation and parasympathetic healing through CFT[39:41] – Fascia as an organ system and what dissection reveals about the body[41:36] – Adhesions, scars, and how gentle work restores visceral movement[47:26] – Concussions, CTE, and why unresolved cranial strain matters long-term[50:57] – Why CFT is still unknown—and why that's starting to change[01:01:36] – Emotional releases, stored trauma, and the body's ability to unwind[01:04:34] – What infants teach us about nervous system regulation (no placebo required)Links & ResourcesCFT Global Website & Trainings: https://craniosacralfascialtherapy.comKim and Holly's Instagram: @cftgillespieapproachBeam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybrokenCathcBio https://www.catchbio.com/beautifullybroken— Code: beautifullybrokenStemRegn: https://www.stemregen.co/products/release?_ef_transaction_id=&affid=52&oid=1— Code: beautifullybroken CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

STRONGER BONES LIFESTYLE: REVERSING THE COURSE OF OSTEOPOROSIS NATURALLY
In this episode of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast, Debi sits down with Jennifer Payeur, holistic health practitioner, cancer thriver, and founder of Nature Provides. Jennifer shares her remarkable healing journey — from chronic illness and a stage 4 cancer diagnosis to discovering the regenerative intelligence of embryonic plant stem cells.This conversation dives deep into how plant stem cells detoxify the body, support the nervous system, restore cellular communication, and enhance tissue regeneration — all foundational elements for improving bone, fascia, gut, and whole-body health.If you're curious about natural healing, toxicity, inflammation, or how nature-based medicine supports the body's blueprint for repair, this episode is an absolute must-listen.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhat embryonic plant stem cells are — and why they're so potentHow plant stem cells support detoxification, recoding, and regenerationThe role toxicity, lymph stagnation, and stress play in disease and bone lossHow fascia communicates with organs, glands, and the skeletal systemWhy modern environments disrupt our body's natural healing processesKey plant stem cells supporting bone and joint healthHow to reconnect to nature's rhythms for deeper healingEpisode Timestamps00:00 — Introducing Jennifer Payeur and her healing journey06:22 — What are embryonic plant stem cells?12:48 — How plant stem cells support the body's detox pathways18:15 — The nervous system, trauma, and cellular communication25:03 — Why toxins accumulate and disrupt bone health32:40 — Fascia, inflammation & the terrain of the body41:12 — The top plant stem cells for bone and joint support49:50 — How reconnecting with nature restores the body56:10 — Jennifer's final advice for supporting your healingResources & LinksLearn more about Jennifer Payeur & Nature Provides: https://nature-provides.comStronger Bones Lifestyle Programs: https://debirobinson.comFollow Debi on Instagram: https://instagram.com/debirobinsonwellnessAction Steps You Can TakeSupport your detox pathways daily (lymph, liver, gut).Reconnect with nature to settle your nervous system.Explore plant-based tools that support cellular communication.Reduce toxic burden in your environment.Add gentle daily movement to nourish fascia and joints.Debi's TakeawayNature knows how to heal. What Jennifer shares reminds us that the body has an extraordinary ability to regenerate when the terrain is supported — when we lower inflammation, release toxins, soothe the nervous system, and restore communication between cells. Bone health is a whole-body story, and nature gives us powerful tools to support every layer.

In this episode I share an exclusive reading from my book Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement, and explore the origins of archetypal geometries, the Law of Three and the emergence of zero. These big ideas sit at the heart of sacred geometry and the symbolic designs that influence how we understand the body, consciousness and our place within a greater pattern.We look at ancient numerals, the monad, the sacred circle and the way geometry becomes a language of meaning. These symbols are so much more than abstract concepts. They shape how we sense ourselves, how we move and how we recognise the continuity that runs through our fascia and our lived experience... Sacred patterns, spiritual archetypes and the designs found throughout nature have always been part of the body's story.If you'd like to explore these ideas more deeply, you can download a FREE chapter of Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement on my website: joanneavison.comI would love to hear what this episode brings forward for you.

Fascia is an important part of your body's structure, yet it's something we rarely think about. Your fascia surrounds every part of your body, and if it's not in good condition, it can tighten, restrict movement, and cause painful symptoms.

Fascia might be the most important system you've never heard of. This episode unpacks how this stretchy, sensory, hormone-responsive web inside your body shapes everything from flexibility and pain to thyroid symptoms, menopause changes, gut function, and weight loss.We dive into why stiff, dehydrated, or inflamed fascia can mimic hypothyroidism, intensify perimenopause and menopause symptoms, stall your metabolism, and magnify gut issues like bloating, constipation, and systemic inflammation.In this episode, you'll learn:What fascia actually is and why it's far more than “connective tissue”How thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism change fascia, leading to stiffness, pain, and slow healingHow estrogen loss in perimenopause and menopause affects fascia hydration and elasticity, and why that matters for mobility and weight gainThe surprising link between fascia and gut health, including lymphatic flow, inflammation, and IBS-like symptomsHow fascia influences metabolic function and why tight fascia can make weight loss harderThe most effective ways to support and heal fascia—from movement and manual therapies to nutrition, hydration, supplements, and stress reduction
Movement doesn't just come from muscles and joints. Fascia connects, supports, and communicates through every system of the body. Tuulia Luomala will reveal how fascia-focused therapies can unlock new potential in rehab, helping us see movement (and patients) in a whole new way.

Most people think you need sweat, strain, or long workouts to upgrade circulation, metabolism, and energy. What if your body could unlock all of that while you stand still? This episode reveals how to get a full body workout by doing absolutely nothing, and why a few minutes of targeted vibration can activate nitric oxide, improve microcirculation, calm your nervous system, and relieve the hidden damage from sitting all day. Host Dave Asprey shows you why the simplest biohack in the room might be the most powerful one you are not using. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Tommy Rhee, DC, a board-certified chiropractor known for his innovative approach to sports medicine and regenerative therapy. Dr. Rhee has treated professional athletes, starting NFL quarterbacks, and everyday people who want better mobility and faster recovery. He served as the official team chiropractor for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and worked with multiple UCLA athletic programs. He also created RheeGen, a patent-pending topical transdermal stem cell cream that introduces a non-invasive path to tissue repair and pain relief. His book, The Future of Regenerative Medicine, outlines how topical stem cell treatments can transform performance and healing. Dr. Rhee's background as a U.S. Navy aircrew member aboard S-3 Viking jets gives him a precision-driven understanding of human performance, resilience, and stress adaptation. In this episode, Dr. Rhee explains why whole body vibration works as a cheat code for circulation, fascia mobility, balance, mood, and nitric oxide activation. He shows how vibration increases microcirculation in places your workouts never reach, why it boosts lymphatic flow better than walking, and how it sends rapid-fire sensory signals that improve proprioception and stress recovery. You also learn why older adults benefit even more from this simple tool, how athletes use it as a warmup to conserve energy, and why three plane vibration dramatically outperforms cheap two dimensional devices. Dave and Dr. Rhee show you how to pair vibration with fasting, ketosis, nootropics, supplements, Danger Coffee, and Smarter Not Harder style training for maximum biohacking efficiency. You'll Learn: • How to mimic the benefits of a full workout while standing still • Why nitric oxide drives circulation, longevity, and metabolic health • How vibration accelerates lymphatic drainage and clears stagnation • Why whole body vibration improves balance, sensory speed, and neuroplasticity • How athletes warm up with vibration to protect energy reserves • Why triplanar vibration beats two dimensional devices for real results • How vibration supports pelvic floor strength and erectile function • How to use vibration for joint protection, fascia mobility, and mitochondrial activation • The daily protocol Dr. Rhee uses for stress relief, mood, and brain optimization Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

Artificial intelligence and cognitive science meet the living geometry of the human body in this week's episode. A student from my Arhanta course asked AI about the structure of living cells, fascia and human biomechanics. The answer she received was confident but disconnected from what we see in embodied anatomy. When the question was refined with more clarity, AI offered a completely different explanation.This conversation is a reminder that deep learning systems only reflect the questions they are given. The living body expresses patterns that machine learning cannot interpret without precision and genuine curiosity. Our fascia, our cellular geometry and our subtle vibratory nature reveal far more than automated logic can reach on its own.If you are interested in fascia science, somatic intelligence or the deeper architecture of the human body, I hope this brings you closer to your own embodied understanding!> If you'd like to learn more about the Arhanta short online course mentioned in this episode, you can visit the course page here - www.joanneavison.com/courses> Get a whole chapter of my book 'Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement' FOR FREE here! www.joanneavison.comI would love to hear what this episode brings up for you!

Do you work out, eat right, but still have dimples and sagging skin?You're not broken. There's a hidden system in your body nobody told you about.This week, I sat down with Tamara Rene, my fascia therapist who completely changed how I think about aging and beauty.She was 80 pounds heavier, doing triathlons, eating "healthy" – but still covered in cellulite. Nothing worked until she discovered the fascia system in 2006.Here's what blew my mind: Cellulite isn't genetic or fat. It's knots in your fascia. Like tangles in your hair. And you can literally comb them out.She told me why Botox actually makes you age faster (it stops all the blood flow to your face). Why sleeping in tight clothes is ruining your body. And how that C-section scar is blocking your entire lymphatic highway.At 62, she looks better than most 40-year-olds. No Botox. No fillers. Just fascia work.After hearing this conversation, you'll never look at cellulite, scars, or your body the same way again.
Urinary (and yes, bowel) leakage isn't “just part of getting older”—it's a signal from your core and pelvic floor. In this straight-talk episode, physical therapist Christina Walsh, co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, joins me to dismantle the shame around pelvic health and lay out a functional path forward that goes far beyond “just do more Kegels.” We cover what's really driving leaks, pressure, prolapse, urgency, and painful sex in midlife; how breath, posture, fascia, and daily toileting habits influence symptoms; when conservative care is enough—and when devices, pessaries, or surgery may be appropriate. Christina also shares practical first steps you can start today (hello, decompression and diaphragmatic breathing), plus how to talk with your partner without pushing through pain.What you'll learnWhy leaking is common—but not normal—and what it's trying to tell youThe limits of isolated Kegels and what a functional approach looks likeHow breathing, posture, sitting, and constipation ramp up pelvic pressureStaging prolapse (1–4), what's realistic to “functionally heal,” and red-flagsPainful sex in midlife: estrogen, lubrication, tone, and boundaries that helpFascia's surprising role (yes, your bladder “talks” to your neck)Links & resourceshttps://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/ (listener code Michele for $50 off)https://www.instagram.com/tighten.your.tinkler/ Tighten Your Tinkler free quiz https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/tinklerquizIf this helped, share it with a friend, rate the show, and hop on my weekly newsletter for midlife health, fitness, and no-BS motivation._________________________________________1:1 health and nutrition coaching or Faster Way - Reach me anytime at mailto:mfolanfasterway@gmail.com If you're doing “all the right things” and still feel stuck, it may be time to look deeper.

Lauren reveals fascia: the communication network your body uses to record trauma, send arousal signals, and feel everything. Medical schools in the 1900s threw it away as "packing wrap" without studying it. Now we know it's your sixth sense, and when it's congested, you age faster and feel less. A woman with a tilted uterus faces sudden stabbing pain with her well-endowed partner after a decade of great sex—discover why the diagnosis isn't the whole story. Someone's tried every technique for premature ejaculation with zero results—learn why most solutions create the opposite effect and what pro athletes know about lasting longer. A post-menopausal woman on hormones still bleeds during painful sex—hear which ancient practices work when Western medicine falls short. Lauren teaches the reverse Kegel (why opening beats squeezing), how stress clenches your pelvic floor without you knowing, why Brazilians walk differently than Westerners and what that reveals about sexual energy, and the breathing pattern that pumps toxins from your brain while awakening sensation below. If pain during sex, premature ejaculation, or post-menopausal dryness have stumped your doctors, this reveals what they're missing. Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:16 - What is Fascia?

In this mind-expanding episode, Darin sits down with Dani Fontaine — researcher, practitioner, and expert on the human body's forgotten communication system: the endocannabinoid system. They unravel how this network regulates everything from mood and sleep to pain and consciousness — and why it was deliberately scrubbed from mainstream medical education. Dani reveals how cannabinoids, light, sound, and nature all communicate with our body's receptor fields — shaping the way we feel, heal, and perceive the world. Together they explore the profound spiritual and scientific implications of this hidden system, and how it connects us back to balance, nature, and truth.
