Wake Up Without a Stiff Neck, Tight Shoulders or an Achy Back

When I say I tried everything, I mean I got a doctorate in chiropractic and became a Strength and Conditioning Specialist. The things I was taught helped only so much, because really it’s the way we’re doing everything.

I’m not here to tell you this will heal everything in your life. Your pain is your most potent teacher, and I’m not God. I can’t take that away from you. What I can teach you is how to work out and move without taking yourself deeper into the things that hurt.

That makes sense. A reel can only show one small piece of the method, and it moves fast.

Inside REVIVAL you start with the six Foundation videos, which teach the basics in order and at a pace you can follow. If you can’t feel something yet, bring it to the live Q&A every other week or ask in the community.

You do need strength, and REVIVAL is strength training. We recommend three strength workouts a week that build muscle and bone, and occasionally we use weights.

REVIVAL can work alongside your training or fully replace your workouts, depending on what your body needs. Either way, you start with Foundation. Taking a break from your regular training can be really helpful, because it gives you the capacity to actually change the way you train. But you’re an adult and can experiment how you see fit. I was stubborn and didn’t stop weight training for months, but then regretted that when I took my training intensity to bow while continuing activities like hiking, surfing and swimming.

Yes. There’s the Foundation series, a Reshape series for doing bodywork on yourself, and a Regulate series where you can work completely on the floor and still build muscle and bone. These principles apply to all bodies: athletes, pregnant and postpartum mamas, and grandparents alike.

Move slowly. Pain is never right.

You can make it fit your life. We recommend three 20 to 60 minute strength workouts each week, 10 to 60 minute videos on the other days, and Sunday rest for sunshine and family.

Every month a new theme opens that goes deep on one part of the body or one goal. Past themes include Your Back Hurts and Build Muscle and Bone Without Lifting Heavy. Every theme stays in the library.

If you join partway through a month, start with Foundation, then move into the current theme or any earlier one at your own pace.

REPATTERN class requires a larger time commitment, as each video is around an hour. It’s my most in-depth offering, teaching you the anatomy, theory, and foundational principles behind this work.

REVIVAL brings those principles into shorter, easier-to-fit sessions with strength training workouts, without as much of the anatomical backstory.

Start with REPATTERN if you want to deeply understand the theory. Choose REVIVAL if you want more digestible chunks of guidance, want to build muscle without pain, or have done REPATTERN already.

No. REVIVAL is month to month, and you can cancel anytime. If you’d rather commit for the year, the annual plan is 12 months for the price of 10 ($490 instead of $588).

REVIVAL is not medical treatment and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any medical condition. It is a movement-based practice designed to help guide the body toward a more natural, healthy, open posture, supporting fluid movement, digestion, emotional regulation, supple fascia, and resilient joints.

These principles have also helped people better support their bodies while experiencing concerns such as diastasis recti, leakage, pelvic floor dysfunction, low-back pain, plantar fasciitis, knee and shoulder discomfort, neck pain, headaches, jaw pain, grinding and clenching, airway concerns, scoliosis, and more.

Your health is your responsibility. Reach out to your provider if you need help.

REVIVAL is the ideal way to prepare your body for birth, or reconnect with it and build new patterns afterward. Your body needs the same foundational principles during pregnancy and postpartum as it does at any other time, only more intentionally.

Around birth, move slowly and focus on the Foundations section. Prioritize correct breathing, awareness, and gentle movement in supportive positions such as hands and knees, or lying on your side, belly, or back, as appropriate and comfortable for you.

Every mama, pregnancy, birth, and recovery is different. Pain is never right.

This is especially for you. Learning how to hold your joints is good for everyone but vital for you. Dr. Lily is hypermobile herself, and after getting diagnosed and not finding good answers on how to support her body, she dove deep into figuring it out for herself.

These principles, done slowly with intention, have the ability to stabilize your joints and teach you how you were made to move. Take it slow and use a mirror to see what you’re actually doing.

Most videos require no special equipment. I’ll let you know what you need before each one.

I recommend moving on a mat or sheepskin rug, outside whenever possible. Occasionally, we’ll use weights, rocks, or a countertop. I’ll show you how to use what you already have or what to purchase.
