April 11, 2022 by lizkoch

Listening to core psoas calls for a broader and deeper understanding of health and primal responses.

Core Integrity, Ancestors, and Our Collective Pain ~ A Gathering Together

September 27, 2021 by lizkoch

As I sit on zoom with “bodies of culture,” the expression Resmaa Menakem author of My Grandmother’s Hands uses when referring to BOC folk, I sense something stirring deep in my bones...something tragic and mournful traced through the lineage of my ancestors.

Welcome to Core Awareness™ 

Liz Koch is an international educator and author who seeks to dissolve the objectification of “body” in order to re-conceptualize human beings as biologically intelligent, self-organizing, and self-healing. Employing biomorphic and embryonic paradigms, Liz redefines psoas as smart, expressive tissue that is both elemental and universal. 

Core Awareness fosters core integrity and self-efficacy as creative and expressive human beings.

Here at Core Awareness you’ll discover new ways of understanding the psoas. In addition to the blogs there is an  educationally rich sourcing free for the taking. Explore my videos, articles, podcasts, interviews, FAQ’s and community links and let yourself go wild!
