Lorraine Lawson
Author & Online Teacher
Welcome. My name is Lorraine Lawson. I'm an experienced science educator and founder of Dynamic Running and Cairns parkrun in Far North Queensland, Australia. With over 25 years of teaching experience and a Bachelor of Science, I've devoted my life to inspiring others to embrace learning, movement and personal transformation.
My first book, How to Run Easy (available on Amazon) stems from my coaching of 100s of beginner runners over 15+ years. I took my first steps into distance running as an adult, discovering not just a path to better health but also a deeper connection to myself, nature and a welcoming community.
Dancing in the Sunlight: The Light Reset. A practical guide to improve sleep, sync your body clock and reclaim your health is my second book. It is a science-based self-help book that explores how light influences sleep, hormones, mood, metabolism and long-term health. It is the first book in the Living Signals series, which examines how everyday environmental signals shape human biology. Future titles will explore the science of nutrition, movement, heat, sound and colour, translating complex research into practical strategies that help readers work with their biology rather than against it.

When I’m not teaching or writing, you’ll usually find me spending time with my dogs, Ruby, Ceasar and Luke, making baby quilts (you say baby, I say baby quilt), organising running events or planning my next overseas adventure.

The biggest gift you can give an author is to leave a review of their book so others can find it too.
Living Signals Check-In
How often do you truly listen to your body’s signals? In our fast-paced world, it’s easy to ignore the small cues: skipping meals or eating in front of screens, missing out on natural daylight, or letting meaningful connections fall to the bottom of our to-do lists. But these daily habits shape our energy, focus, and sense of belonging more than we realise. Whether it’s movement, rest, nutrition, or the simple act of winding down before bed, intentional choices can make a profound difference.
