The Joanne Avison Podcast

How does the body organise itself into movement, perception and awareness?
In this episode, Joanne explores fascia as living geometry — not symbolic or abstract, but the organising architecture of embodied awareness…
Building on the previous episode about the energetic body, this conversation looks at sacred geometry as a biological reality rather than a spiritual overlay. Joanne reflects on fascia as a self-organising, responsive field through which structure, sensation and meaning continually arise.
From embryology to movement, from breath to healing, fascia reveals a non-linear intelligence that adapts and reorganises when awareness and safety are present — beyond mechanical models of the body.

How fascia connects the energetic body, embodied awareness, and spiritual awakening — explored through lived, sensory experience.
In this episode, Joanne explores the energetic body through the living lens of fascia, embodiment, and direct experience. Rather than treating spirituality as something abstract or separate from the body, this conversation invites a grounded understanding of awakening as something sensed, relational, and embodied.
The episode reflects on fascia as a responsive field that shapes perception, movement, and inner organisation. From embryology to adult self-awareness, it explores how awareness arises through sensation, rhythm, and relationship, not effort or control.
This is episode three in a five-part series exploring fascia and practical spirituality, examining how the body communicates before thought and how subtle awareness can reshape how we inhabit ourselves.
This conversation will resonate with those interested in fascia science, somatic practice, embodied spirituality, and approaches to healing rooted in listening rather than technique.
New episodes in the series are released weekly.

Biomotional intelligence describes how the body senses, adapts and responds before thought or analysis…
In this episode, Joanne explores how awareness, fascia and lived experience shape the body’s innate intelligence in everyday life. She looks at biomotional intelligence not as a concept to understand, but as something to practice. Through embodied awareness, presence and subtle listening, the body reveals meaning that cannot be reduced to data, mechanics or emotional labels.
Drawing on fascia therapy, somatic practice and contemplative traditions, Joanne reflects on how sensing precedes thinking, and how over-analysis can interrupt the body’s natural capacity to organise, adapt and respond.
This episode is part two of a five-part series exploring the relationship between fascia, embodiment and spirituality, created in response to your questions and growing interest in how the body communicates beyond purely mechanical models.
This conversation will be especially relevant for those interested in embodied practice, somatic therapy, mindfulness, fascia science and the cultivation of inner awareness.
If this episode resonates, you are warmly invited to share your reflections in the comments on Spotify or on the Joanne Avison YouTube channel.
Come back for episode three next week!

Does fascia store emotional experience - or is there something more nuanced at play?
Drawing on somatic healing, bodywork therapy and fascia science, Joanne looks at how our perceptions and emotional landscape influence our body’s tissue over time. But rather than framing fascia as something that simply “stores trauma,” she invites a more nuanced view of this incredible tissue as a dynamic, responsive field reflecting how we live, the way we move and what we feel.
You’ll also hear how embodiment practice and cultivating aware presence can lead to subtle yet powerful shifts in body organisation — offering pathways for healing, integration, and change.
🌀 This is the first in a new five-part series exploring the potent links between fascia, embodiment, and spirituality — created in response to your messages, questions, and growing interest in how the body adapts, remembers and responds beyond purely mechanical models.
It will be especially relevant for bodyworkers, movement teachers, therapists and anyone interested in embodied healing, holistic health and integrative bodywork.

Gnosis, presence and embodied awareness explored through fascia, somatic practice and living intelligence.
In this episode, Joanne reflects on gnosis as a form of knowing that is lived rather than intellectual. Through embodied awareness, breath and presence, she explores how the body reveals an innate intelligence that cannot be reduced to data or analysis.
Drawing on fascia therapy, somatic practice and spiritual traditions, this conversation invites a gentle slowing down and a return to inner listening. It is a contemplative exploration for those interested in mindfulness, embodiment practices, fascia and spiritual awareness.
