The Self-Agency Advocate Amanda Hanna

A candid chat with Kirsten Wilkinson from @Legacy Motion as we cover all the ins and out of our upcoming 300HR Trauma-Informed Movement Facilitator Training. (Starting October 23, Online & Interactive).

This training allows you to learn the skills to share trauma informed practices that include yoga, embodiment, and somatic therapies with all people and all bodies.

You will have access to a global international community of likeminded individuals who are interested to find ways to utilise all our innate wisdom within our bodies and our nervous system to find restoration.

This training is broken down into 3 100HR modules, which can be taken individually. However for the most knowledge rich and transformative experience, we would love to have you along for the 8 months.

This is a personable training with only 20 SPACES AVAILABLE so that we are able to build strong communication between all students, whilst creating and maintaining an on-going community of movement facilitators across the globe.

Food is medicine. It heals you. It is the fuel for our entire being.   

In this video I want to shift the conservation towards a more healthy and balanced relationship with food, to see it as a source of joy, of nourishment, of fuel, and truly of medicine.  A big part of maintaining and thriving a personal practice is your mental health and making sure that it is nourished and supported through the foods that you consume.   

How can we best support out mental and physical well-being with food? 

What does proper nutrition look like? 

How can we learn to listen to our individual body and needs?

Do you have a daily personal practice? Maybe you already have one but you struggle to make this routine? Or maybe you feel lost as to where to start?

In this video we explore how to create your unique personal practice, the impact it can have on your life, and the best way to make this sustainable so that we can do this long term.

A personal practice is unique from person to person. No one can determine what will really work for you. Whilst others can offer tips and advice, we have to develop it ourselves so that it is sustainable and maintainable.

In this video I explore:


How to manifest intentions using a personal practice

The power of and uniqueness of both a morning and evening practice.

Understanding the different brainwaves so that we can cultivate a personal practice at the most beneficial times.

Treating our personal practice as sacred whilst being realistic about the time and energy we have available.


And much much more!

We have spent a lot of our life believing that we are helpless and that change is out of reach.

But you are now stepping into a new reality; a reality where you are EMPOWERED to live your truest life by placing the change that will happen into your hands. This is where taking personal responsibility for your life comes in.

When I think about personal responsibility I think about
- HOW is it that I show up in this world?
- WHO am I showing up as?
- WHAT actions am I taking?

Nobody else is going to do the actions that nourish and feed my physical, emotional and mental well-being. So I need to take that responsibility to do it myself.

Questions I ask myself,
- WHO do I want to be in this world?
- WHO do I want to show up as?
- HOW do I want people to feel after I have left a situation?

We all have a responsibility to know our self on deep and intimate level. To do this, we must remain CURIOUS - so that we can get to know our self in ways that we haven't before.

In this video I explore the importance of taking steps to know yourself intimately so that we are consciously taking personal responsibility for our own life.

We do not constantly have to be this ‘work in progress’.

We do not need to be this piece of art that needs mastering.

You are more than perfect exactly as you are.

How do we truly rest?

We need to decrease the amount of stimulation as much as possible. This allows our whole nervous system to deeply rest.

In this video I explain the IMPORTANCE of deep rest on our nervous system and HOW to actually switch off and rest.

Self regulation - the ability to come back to a place of safety.

In this episode I talk about the tools we can use to drop back into a place of safety. A place where we feel calm in the present moment and where our nervous system can return back to a regulated state.

I describe some different breathing techniques which you can use to explore how you are feeling and return back to a baseline state.

The BREATH is the most powerful tools we have to identify our emotional state. It is one of the quickest ways to drop back in and come back to a base line. Our breath is like a compass - when we notice how we are breathing we can tune into how we are feeling, our emotions.
