Exploring the Practice of Rolfing with Moylan RyanWhat if the way you move—how you stand, walk, and even breathe—could unlock a deeper sense of freedom and alignment? Rolfing, a powerful form of structural integration, offers a profound way to release tension, improve posture, and reshape both body and mind. More than just a physical adjustment, it is a process of unraveling old patterns, restoring balance, and reconnecting with your authentic self. By working with the body's fascial system, Rolfing helps break free from restrictive habits, allowing for greater ease, fluidity, and presence in everyday life. It’s not just about movement—it’s about transformation from the inside out.In this episode, we talk about the somatic practice of rolfing with a special guest, Moylan Ryan. Moylan is originally from Ireland, where he trained as a somatic psychotherapist, but eventually relocated to the US nearly 21 years ago to study at Dr Ralph Institute in Boulder, Colorado. Moylan recognizes Rolfing's structural integration as a profound means of bringing deep change to one's psychology, a reshaping of both neural and fascial plasticity. Moylan has a private practice as a somatic therapist in Tempe, Arizona, where he offers all things structural integration, neurodynamic breathwork, and movement education as integral parts of his healing process. Moylan is currently completing his book, Living Aligned, a compilation of over 40 years of experience exploring the landscape of both the inner and outward world.Tune in!
