Join me for learning circle and ceremony as we ritualize the coming back to ourselves for the sake of our own energetic blueprint and to become a solid anchor for those we work with. There will be demonstrations, theory and exercises to take home or to do with clients. 

 

The Original Cranial Osteopaths regarded their work as Spiritual: noting that the cerebrospinal fluid contains our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects all in one. Due to their anticipation for acceptance into the mainstream model of medicine, they obscured speaking of the spiritual part. It's time to bring the spiritual to the forefront. We are energy. Mass is dense energy. Our energetic and spiritual aspect is always alive and listening. 

​

This class will work with the ethics, hygiene and skills for palpating the Spiritual/Energetic level of our being. Topics may include trauma, guarding, and deepening the anchor point of practitioner neutral; cultivating one's own energetic frequency as a temporary fulcrum for our client. 

 

This class is an extension of what's available as one deepens one's practice. We will talk about what happens in a session after we assisted our client to unburden at the surface layers of the musculoskeletal and peripheral nervous system. When our client settles and becomes receptive, the practitioner's internal thoughts, one's mental-emotional-spiritual realities play a special role in the container of care for our clients. 

 

My teacher, Ursula Popp emphasized over and over again that the path of the healer is the path of the Self. 

 

Her teaching opens us up to becoming aware of ourself as cultivator of our spirit. How do we talk to ourself? How do we treat ourself? When we notice we became out of focus for a moment, with what quality of warmth do we welcome ourself back to presence and service? From these energetic signatures our clients own spiritual energetics can choose to take influence - or not. The more we cultivate our own spiritual energetic frequency in the spectrum of benefit, of love, the more our client has to choose from in re-remembering their own energetic bonding to the love of -and from the universe - oh there I go again... but that's where this work takes us! Back to cultivating again and again in each moment, our welcoming ourself back to the choice point to bond with love to the forces that give and sustain life and our ability to perceive and interact. Awe and gratitude: emotions that emit high-frequency photons, inviting hormonal changes toward oxytocin and other neuropeptides that settle, balance, ease. 

 

We are not healing anybody but ourself. Our clients are here to receive support for their own unique pathway back to themself and we can only create a space for remembering a pure source of love, which is built into our blueprint for surviving and thriving. The parasympathetic nervous system is scanning always: is our person being loved and supported? And allowed and not forced? 

 

This class is for those with a license to provide healthcare, including Massage Therapists and those who are already certified Craniosacral Practitioners. This is also a place of learning for those who receive Craniosacral Therapy and who wish to deepen their contextual understanding for the possibilities of deep healing when assisted to find and maintain a place of being in the deeper states of the nervous system, what Craniosacral Therapists call the deeper tides: the mid-tide and most importantly, the long tide.
