The Joanne Avison Podcast
The Joanne Avison Podcast is a journey into Spiritual Science, examining the sacred geometry of human form and motion and how the Fascia Matrix changes all we thought we knew about human bodies. Reflecting on her rich experience as a movement and manual therapy practitioner, Certified Archetypal Consultant, ordained minister and Doctor of Spiritual Science; Joanne challenges our assumptions of human anatomy, and asks us to consider the "Humans Being" as intimately relating "soma to soul" such that they can't really be useful separated. Joanne animates the true meaning of practical spirituality and the patterns of (our) body and being as one!! Told through artful storytelling and conversations with scientists, researchers, teachers, clients and curious fellow beings; this podcast will spark your curiosity of humans “being in bodies”, and inspire your life-long inquiry into who you really are.

Can Yoga REALLY Improve Your Mental Health?
What if there were simple tools that could improve your inner world immediately - without you folding yourself into a “pretzel” or meditating for hours? In this episode, Joanne Avison interviews Jyoti Manuel, of Special Yoga, who works every day with adults and children, making a profound difference to their well-being. We explore the question: can yoga really improve mental health? Are there super simple, easy things we can do to make a difference to our daily stress on every level - without doing headstands?
From reducing anxiety and depression to promoting emotional regulation and relaxation, the benefits of simple yoga integrative practices are vast and multifaceted. We explore the role of fascia and mindful practice in yoga's profound mind-body connection. We talk about how simple self-awareness practices can ease symptoms of mental health conditions and serve everyone, including those with additional or different needs.
Whether you're seeking stress relief, or simply a deeper sense of emotional wellness, this conversation demonstrates how the subtle aspects of yoga can improve our mental health - on or off the mat. So, take a moment to join us and hear some inspiring stories of how Jyoti facilitates holistic transformation, with the simplest of tools you can imagine - that we all have at our fingertips!!
