Body College Podcast Steve Haines

I chatted with the awesome Natasha Devon MBE about anxiety, body image and the power of reading. Natasha is an ambassador for the Reading Agency. On October 10th 2022 they launched Reading Well for Teens. The scheme includes a collection of books being distributed in public libraries in England and Wales aimed at supporting the mental health and wellbeing of teenagers. Anxiety is Really Strange is one of the 27 books on the list. Natasha is an eloquent and fun speaker. Her passion for supporting mental health and diversity in teens comes through very clearly. She talks about her new novel Toxic and, essentially, how we all need a bit of David Bowie.

How can we achieve effortless action in biodynamic cranial practice? In this talk Steve Haines explores Daoist and Zen models of non doing and modern research into flow states. There are huge similarities with the teachings of visionary osteopaths in the cranial field and in the teaching Franklyn Sills from the biodynamic cranial community. In biodynamics, change is experienced as a letting go from the inside, not a forcing from the outside. Health is a reconnection to a natural order.
