Biodynamic Craniosacral Practice
I trained with Biodynamic Craniosacral teacher, Carol Agnessens, in Santa Cruz California.
What is Biodynamic Craniosacral therapy?
This therapy is a gentle, hands-on healing technique that works to bring the parasympathetic (rest and digest) into balance with the sympathetic (get shit done) state. The aim is to encourage the vital movement of the craniosacral system to support ones’ self-regulating healing capacity.
Craniosacral therapy has many benefits for well being including easing stress, working with migraines, promoting deep rest for the nervous system, unwinding tension throughout the body, working with anxiety, gross and fine motor problems, reducing acute pain, easing stress disorders and much more.
“BIODYNAMICS”
The Biodynamics of Morphic Resonance
Perceiving and engaging the subtle membranes which surround and permeate the physical body is a foundational element of a biodynamic approach. According to biologist and author, Dr. Rupert Sheldrake, informational patterns of development resonate across space and time. The body is the expression of the densification of consciousness contacted through these palpable and nascent membranes. Sheldrake’s Morphic Resonance is the medium for the ignition of multi-dimensional awareness grounded through an experiential exploration and study of the body’s inherent intelligence. Somatic intelligence is expressed through the communication between the varying systems of the body with a particular focus on the cranial sacral system. With primary respiratory movement (PRM) as a guide: embodiment, touch and somatic realization re-birth the integrated tapestry of wholeness.
Embryo Tracing: The forces shaping, evolving and sustaining life manifest as facets of a primordial blueprint, directing all patterns of growth and differentiation. The field of embryology provides a lens illuminating this continuum: the arising, shaping, sustaining and dissolving of form. By tracing these pathways, we are led to the origins of being ‘in-formed’ and to the manifestation of the flows giving shape and substance to the body. As the embryological “time line” is awakened, re-organization and re-orientation occur naturally. The body is a process developing and unfolding in time.
