About the event

The Language of Anatomy II: In the second meeting of this series dedicated to the Language of Anatomy, we will explore the nervous system’s connection to the musculoskeletal system. Rich will unpack the complex relationship between muscles and bones, and challenges commonly held beliefs regarding the nervous system and emotions, leading to a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of our major physical and psychic systems.

Rich uses lecture, demonstration and practice to deliver  further exploration of the theme, what are we made of? introduced in the first workshop. Palpation of major muscles and body landmarks will help us to understand the important features of the physical body directly. We will then experience the effects of the physical practice of yoga postures on our health and well-being.
