Our posture, our breath, the way our feet strike the ground – all tell the story of how we move through life. But how often do we pay attention to this story - or even rewrite it?

Today’s returning guest on my Feel Better, Live More podcast believes that pain, stiffness and fatigue aren’t just things to manage – they’re messages. And when we learn to listen to the body with the right lens, we can move better, feel better and even live better.

I’m delighted to welcome Lawrence van Lingen back to the show. Lawrence is a highly sought-after expert in biomechanics, bodywork and human performance. Described by Triathlete Magazine as ‘the genius of running,’ Lawrence has over 25 years’ experience working with elite athletes and everyday people.

He’s developed a unique approach that goes beyond traditional methods, blending a deep knowledge of movement, posture and breath to optimise performance and overall well-being. Lawrence works with some of the world’s greatest athletes to enhance their performance and help them with so-called ‘untreatable’ injuries. His online running workshops have become the backbone of remarkable athletic comebacks, and they’ve also helped many people worldwide move without pain and with greater enjoyment.

His first appearance back on episode 491 of this podcast really resonated with a lot of listeners, and I’m so pleased to be diving even deeper into his holistic philosophy.

In this conversation, we explore a variety of topics, including:

The life changing benefits of backward walking
The relationship between our stress levels and the way that we move
Why most of us are over-breathing and the implications of doing so
The true role of the diaphragm – not just for breathing, but also for spinal alignment, emotional balance, and nervous system regulation
How modern habits like sitting, shoe-wearing and screen use are affecting us
Why your feet are more than just a base – they’re a sensory system that guides your balance, posture and power
How fascia – the body’s connective tissue matrix – influences everything from flexibility to feeling grounded
Why stretching alone often doesn’t resolve tightness – and how restoring communication in the body is the real key to lasting change

Lawrence’s clear explanations and everyday metaphors bring the body’s complexity to life. What emerges is a truly empowering message: your body isn’t broken, it’s just been misunderstood. And with awareness, patience and the right input, it knows exactly how to heal and realign itself. I hope you enjoy listening.
