Did you know your body could be holding on to deep-seated tension, even if you don’t feel it? In this eye-opening episode, Heidi Hadley explores the surprising places your body stores hidden muscle tension and how these unconscious patterns could be the root cause of your aches, limited mobility, fatigue, or stress.

Through the lens of Clinical Somatic Education, you’ll discover:

  • The science behind sensory-motor amnesia (when your brain forgets how to relax muscles)
  • Why tension builds up in specific areas like the hips, jaw, neck, and shoulders
  • How daily habits, posture, and stress contribute to chronic muscle contraction
  • Why traditional stretching doesn’t resolve these deeply ingrained patterns
  • How to use pandiculation to uncover and release these hidden tensions—gently and effectively

This episode will shift the way you think about pain, posture, and your nervous system—empowering you with tools to reconnect with your body and feel better from the inside out.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
