16 years ago, I was paralysed from MS.
Doctors told me to manage my symptoms. To accept my limitations.
But I refused to just survive.
I combined evidence-based methods, kinesiology, nervous system regulation, and a balanced approach. I investigated every root causeâstress patterns, inflammation, infection, gut health and beliefs keeping my body in survival mode.
And I didnât just improve. I went into full remission.
That journey became the BAMBOO Methodâthe same framework now helping my clients heal from chronic conditions, autoimmune flares, and burnout.
Because healing isnât about managing symptoms. Itâs about addressing the root causes keeping your body stuck.

⨠Personalised kinesiology & nervous system regulation
⨠Evidence-based protocols + holistic nutrition
⨠Complete Foundations courseâ6 pillars for healing

⨠Weekly community support

16 years ago, my body was breaking down.
Chronic symptoms. Exhaustion. A diagnosis that felt like a life sentence.
But hereâs what I learned: You donât have to break. You can bend.
Thatâs where the Bend Like Bamboo Method was born.
Through kinesiology, I discovered that my body was holding onto trauma, stress, and patterns that were keeping me sick.
When I learned to listen to what my body was trying to tell meâand gave it what it needed to healâeverything shifted.
Kinesiology isnât just muscle testing. Itâs a conversation with your nervous system.
Itâs finding the root cause beneath the symptoms. Itâs uncovering the stress, the emotions, the beliefs that are keeping you stuck.
And when you address those? Your body can finally heal.
The BAMBOO Method combines kinesiology with nervous system regulation to help you:
â Understand what your body is trying to tell you
â Release whatâs keeping you stuck
â Rebuild resilience from the inside out
Iâve been in remission for 16 years. Not because I managed my symptoms better. Because I transformed how my body holds stress.
If youâre exhausted from just surviving your symptoms, itâs time to heal.
What if the secret to high performance wasnât doing more⌠but being more present?
Karen Canham joined me on the Bend Like Bamboo Podcast to share the simple tools that create safety in your nervous system.
Hereâs what we uncovered:
â Presence is the foundation of regulation
â Simple practices create profound shifts in your nervous system
â When you feel safe, you perform at your best
â Well-being and performance arenât oppositesâtheyâre partners
You donât need complex strategies.
You need presence. Safety. Regulation.
Karen breaks down how small, intentional practices can transform how you lead, perform, and show up in your life.
Your nervous system is listening. What are you telling it?

Hereâs the hidden cost of leadership nobody talks about:
The loneliness.
You canât share your fears with your team. You canât show doubt to your board. You canât admit overwhelm to your family.
So you carry it all. Alone. And itâs destroying you.
The stress. The decision fatigue. The constant pressure.
This is why leaders need coaches.
Not for strategyâyouâve got that. For partnership. For truth. For someone who sees you, not just your role.
A coach creates the space where you can finally be human. Where you can process stress instead of suppressing it.
Where you can lead from authenticity instead of exhaustion.
Leadership doesnât have to be lonely.

What if the secret to staying strong wasnât about being rigid... but about being flexible?
I sat down with Karen Canham, Nervous System and Somatic Coach, to explore her work in nervous system regulation.
Karen specialises in helping leaders understand how their body holds stress and how to release it through nervous system regulation and somatic practices.
Here is where we touched on the analogy of Bending Like Bamboo. Hereâs what bamboo teaches us about resilience:
â Flexibility allows us to bend without breaking
â Returning to centre is how we regulate our nervous system
â When we stop resisting, we can re-imagine whatâs possible
The strongest leaders arenât the ones who never bend. Theyâre the ones who know how to flex, recalibrate, and rise again.
Your nervous system craves this kind of resilience. Your leadership depends on it.
You know whatâs impossible? Reading the label from inside the bottle.
As a CEO, youâre too close to see your own blind spots.
The decisions that feel urgent? Some arenât strategic. The patterns youâre repeating? You canât see them.
The stress youâre normalising? Itâs killing your performance.
This is why every elite athlete has a coach.
Not because theyâre not talented. Because excellence requires an outside perspective.
A coach helps you see what you canât see. Challenges what youâve normalised. And helps you bend like bamboo instead of breaking under pressure.
You canât lead at your highest level from inside your own blind spots.
Your leadership is only as strong as your nervous system đŻ
Karen Canham dropped some truth bombs on the Bend Like Bamboo Podcast about why regulated leaders create thriving teams.
Hereâs what we unpacked:
â Why your nervous system state dictates how you show up
â The ripple effect your regulation has on everyone around you
â How to lead from a place of calm, not chaos
When youâre dysregulated, your team feels it. When youâre grounded, they rise with you.
This isnât soft skillsâthis is the foundation of sustainable leadership.
Karen Canham is on the Bend Like Bamboo podcast, and she shares a game-changing practice that takes just 10 seconds every hour.
Hereâs the truth about focus and performance:
You canât sustain high performance when your nervous system is constantly in overdrive.
That brain fog by 2pm? The reactivity in meetings? The feeling of being perpetually âonâ?
Your nervous system needs regular resets.
Karenâs simple practice:
Every hour, take 10 seconds to pause and regulate.
10 seconds to breathe deeply.
10 seconds to come back to your body.
10 seconds to shift from reactive to responsive.
This isnât about productivity hacks. This is about nervous system regulation that creates sustainable focus, clarity, and performance.
The ripple effect? Better decisions. Clearer thinking. More presence with your team.
Because you canât lead from an exhausted nervous system.
This is bending like bamboo in real time - flexible enough to pause, strong enough to regulate, thriving through the demands of leadership.

Welcome to Bend Like Bamboo, specialising in optimising health and recovery from stress, illness or any setback in life. To bend like bamboo is to bend in change with resilience.
In 2009 Amanda Campbell suffered a major MS attack that left her paralysed and was given a 50% chance of ever walking again. Unprepared to accept this as her fate, Amanda learned to focus on what she wanted instead of what she was scared of. With a lot of determination and the help of her doctors and a Kinesiologist, within six weeks, she stunned us all by not only walking, but running.
This prompted her to swap a fast-paced career in the fashion industry to go back to study to enable her to understand how she achieved her recovery.
Having become an accredited Sports Kinesiologist, Amanda founded Bend Like Bamboo www.bendlikebamboo.com her private practice in 2013, where Amanda has dedicated her life helping others rebuild their lives from illness and stress. Bend Like Bamboo specialises in helping people to bend with change with resilience to optimise their health. Amanda sees clients recovering from Autoimmune disease, setbacks and physical symptoms.
Amanda co-founded Nourissh www.nourissh.com with her partner and VinoMofo in 2014, delivering ready-made meals to people across Melbourne, after she discovered the role ethically sourced and nutrient dense food played in her recovery.
Taking a balanced approach, Amanda believes that nourishing her body on a cellular level, feeling good emotionally and connecting with herself again, gave her the best chance of recovery and living a happy fulfilling life.
As a Speaker www.amandacampbell.com.au Amanda Campbell speaks at events and businesses to educate and inspire others about why they should care. She believes that you can make a transformation in your life and that renewal can be possible if you give your body the right environment it needs. Amanda has inspired Australianâs to not only prevent poor health, but also to reset from an illness or any setback in life. To Bend like bamboo is to bend with all the change that life brings with resilience, and evolve constantly to be the best you.
Bend like Bamboo at work is a health and wellbeing program, that empowers busy women and men, to optimise their physical and mental health. In a workshop designed to inspire and educate your team to optimise their mindset, they can maximise productivity and happiness in the workplace, building inner resilience as a result.
