📌 Episode Title: Muscle of the Soul: Healing the Psoas Through the Four Domains
đź“„ Episode Summary:
The psoas does more than stabilize your spine—it holds your history. In this episode of Three Sisters, Victoria and Serena explore the psoas as a gateway to healing across all Four Domains: biomechanics, biochemistry, emotional scars, and existential wounds.
From trauma stored in the tissue to digestion, posture, and belonging, they trace how the psoas weaves through every layer of who we are. With stories from their own bodies—surgeries, scars, and awakenings—they offer a path for you to meet your own psoas as the muscle of the soul.
This is an invitation to stop fixing and start listening.
🌟 Key Takeaways & Themes:
🌀 The Psoas as the Muscle of the Soul
The psoas isn’t just a muscle—it’s a meeting place for movement, emotion, digestion, and spirit.
🛡️ Safety, Belonging & Posture
How your psoas responds to life’s pressures, from collapse to fight—and what that says about your nervous system.
🧬 Biochemistry Meets Biomechanics
Tight hips? Low back pain? PMS? Endometriosis? The psoas is often the missing link between gut health and physical pain.
đź’” Scars Tell Stories
Emotional scars can live in the psoas for decades, showing up as pain long after the original wound.
👥 Community & Bodywork
Healing the psoas requires attuned hands, fierce reflection, and the co-regulation of trusted practitioners.
đź’¬ Standout Soundbites:
Victoria: “Grief hits the hardest when my head hits the pillow. It’s where the truth waits.”
Serena: “The psoas contracts when we’re in danger—but it also contracts when we’re disconnected from ourselves.”
Victoria: “If I hadn’t tended to my psoas, I probably would have ended up with hip replacements. Emotional scars hold postures that wear down the body.”
Serena: “You can get a rubdown anywhere—but real healing happens when someone listens to your tissue’s story.”
