EPISODE 14:

​Psoas: Sacred, Subtle, Powerful


"I believe the Psoas to be a sacred, powerful, and subtle muscle." In this episode of From Pain to Possibility, join Susi as she explores the Psoas muscle. 

So often the psoas gets blamed for issues, but really, it isn’t the psoas’ fault.  The psoas is responding to the forces in the body and how they are being absorbed and dissipated. 

Consider this idea of being grounded and light simultaneously, solid and stable, the ability to be agile. All of these characteristics apply to a psoas that is responsive, alive, and turned on. There is a whole new level of quiet power that can be experienced.


If this has gotten your interest and you want to dig in more and explore more about the psoas, Susi has an online course coming up on the psoas specifically. She would love for you to join her and learn more at https://www.functionalsynergy.com/product/power-of-pure-movement-the-psoas/.
