Three most common neck injuries while working at a computer
Working from home brings its own unique set of challenges and obstacles, from setting up your workspace correctly to properly organising your time and balancing it between work and life. There are also other factors that many people don’t take into consideration, at least not until it is too late.
Are you moving with your brakes on?
Feeling tired, achy, a little bit stuck physically and maybe emotionally too? Suffering from swollen ankles, shin splints, knee, hip, back or shoulder pain?
Ever considered that the problem may simply be that your muscles are fighting each other? Half of you is unconsciously holding back while the rest of you wants to be moving forward? Sounds like you are trying to move with your brakes on!

Three ways to avoid seeing a Rolfer
As a Rolfer, I have spent over 20 years helping my clients to stand straighter and move more easily. Over that time I have seen most of the ways that injury, accident, and emotional upset can throw our bodies out of shape.
One thing that still amazes me though is how intelligently our bodies cope, how incredibly well we can adjust and adapt to the strange and unexpected things that life often throws at us.
However, the majority of people who come through my clinic door with fascial strain and in pain are there because of unhelpful movement habits and compensation patterns that they could quite easily change. So here are three self-help ideas that will help put me out of business 🙂

Benefits of Self Abhyanga (Ayurvedic oil massage)
The sanskrit word sneha translates as ‘oil’, but another very deep and meaningful translation of this word is ‘love’. Self abhyanga (self massage) is a daily rituals that happens as part of our self care regime – It is essentially an act of self-love, self-care and self respect. It balances the doshas and cultivates optimal wellbeing.
It is believed that abhyanga invokes similar sensations to those we feel when one we are immersed in the feelings of love such as warmth, relaxation and safety.
The power of sacred intention (sankalpa)
A sankalpa is the Sanskrit word for intention but it goes much deeper that having a simple intention or goal. ‘San’ means ‘a connection with the highest truth’ and ‘kalpa’ means ‘a vow’.It is a vow to our soul or higher self. It is born from our deep awareness, inner wisdom and is a desire of our consciousness. A sankalpa looks like a short conscious statement that encapsulates a deep soul desire. It comes from a deeper sense of self – it’s not just based on a thought or feeling, it is a combination of the two and more.
