Self-awareness and personal improvement. It starts with lingering in the habit.

Irene Lyon2019-04-30T13:06:25-07:00

I took this short video at the start of a 3-hour workshop I was teaching in Vancouver titled "Ditch Those Orthotics". As with most Feldenkrais-based teachings you start with self-inquiry and the act of simply noticing what you do. What are the discrepancies to your right or left when you [...]

Words to ponder. A night of desktop cleaning and croissant making.

Irene Lyon2019-04-30T13:06:25-07:00

While I was watching Seth practice his croissant making tonight I was simultaneously cleaning up my computer desktop and came across this Word Document from a long time ago. I must have been jamming through a few ideas as the document is titled "curateyouwords". It was, and still is, a good [...]

New Space On March 1st I will be entering into a very new, exciting and "holy shit this is really happening!" phase of my life. I've got a brand spanking new space in downtown Vancouver in the Duncan Building. Suite 313, 119 West Pender Street to be exact. Here's a visual. In [...]

A LOVE-inspired post to go with Valentines Day – Learn how to grow your own organic veggies!

Irene Lyon2019-04-30T13:06:27-07:00

Rewind about 25-30 years (for me at least)...... Remember those hand-made Valentines day cards you use to make in grade school? They were always SO MUCH better than the purchased Hallmark variety - don't you think? The multi-coloured construction paper, the stickers, the glitter, the crayons, the creativity.....can't you just [...]

Create some new instructions for you: What actually is self-help & health?

Irene Lyon2019-04-30T13:06:40-07:00

This is the beginning of a series that I am plugging away at titled "Creating Your Own Personal Instruction Manual" . The breadcrumb trail to go with these series of post are here ("what stands between you & that more effortless version of you") & here ("reverse engineer your health: become [...]

I have a favour to ask. Become your own medicine. It’s time to try.

Irene Lyon2019-04-30T13:06:40-07:00

I want to cultivate a tribe of folk who are truly interested in becoming 'curators' of their own bodies. I've written more about this idea here, but in essence, here's the shortened version: When we actually understand how our body works, what its default states & grooves are, how to listen [...]

I’m here to bring a ginormous spotlight to an area of health and healing that’s being overlooked: unresolved and untreated trauma (of all kinds!).

Before you say, “I wasn’t traumatized”, please, please stick around because we, the scientific and clinical practice community, are finally redefining what a traumatic experience and adversity really is and it is not what most people think! I am here to give everybody access to education that is NOT dumbed down and assumes the reader wants the truth – even if it means getting into the nitty-gritty and feeling some feels. This means my articles (and videos that often accompany them) are more on the in-depth side and require you to think a bit more. In some cases a lot more. I hope you take some time to sink your curiosity into all that is on this page.

Much Love
