Craniosacral Therapy III – EL304CSIII

Craniosacral Therapy III-The Heart of Healing: The Inherent Treatment Plan EL304CSIII (30 hours, 2.5 units)

The potency (life forces) of the Breath of Life naturally expresses itself within states of wholeness and equilibrium. This seminar introduces some of the most important clinical concepts within craniosacral biodynamics: the neutral, the state of balance and the role of stillness. These are explored within the understanding of the inherent treatment plan. Rather than having to resort to the use of analysis or diagnosis to gain information, students are oriented to perceptual processes that directly allow them to observe the arising of healing intentions from within the client’s system from any level of primary respiration (mid-tide, Long Tide and Dynamic Stillness). The concept and perceptual experience of natural, automatic shifting fulcrums is explored along with reciprocal tension motion within the tissue field. Students are taught initial processes that help them orient to inertial fulcrums (organizing centers for disturbances in the system) from which an awareness of inertia and inertial issues is developed. From this base, students learn to appreciate the state of balance, a systemic neutral oriented to particular inertial issues in the system. It is within this state that the healing forces of primary respiration manifest within particular conditions. An introduction to Dynamic Stillness as a ground of emergence for healing processes is also undertaken.
