New workshop for practitioners of Rolfing and Structural Integration.
The Heart of Stillness
. An Introduction to Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
BIODYNAMIC CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is built on the original studies in
craniosacral therapy of William Sutherland, D.O. It emphasizes utilization
of multiple rhythms in the core systems of the body, termed by Sutherland
the rhythms of primary respiration and the Breath of Life. This course
catalyzes the perceptual skills necessary to guide you into the
therapeutic force of these rhythms. During this 5-day class we will
explore ways to expand perception and deepen our ability to make contact.
The basic concepts of the Biodynamic Craniosacral approach will be
introduced and experienced, including:
*manual and perceptual skills necessary to access the long tide rhythm of
primary respiration
*the embryological ground of mid-line phenomena around which the system
self-organizes
*the expression of an individual's health: the ability to integrate the
specifics of
personal history and wholeness of being
*the fluid drive of potency arising within the Health of the individual
*tracking the imprint of stress and trauma
*basic neuroanatomy

Belonging is a powerful theme, directly related to the intimacy that is in
every human being. We live in a time where the temples of false
advertising hypnotize and confuse our authentic longings delivering us to
superfi cial places that are empty of real nourishment. Our responsibility
as adults is to refine the compass of our own genuine longing and
belonging. In this five day intensive, Susan Harper tends relational
capacity, creative imagination, and the heart of belonging.
What Will We Do?
*New Continuum Movement Explorations - Susan brings new movement and sound
explorations to facilitate a liquid articulation throughout the whole
organism in a self-paced process that is pleasurable and empowering.
*Perceptual Exercises Vital new ways of perceiving dramatically affect
our movement,
physical structure, psychological profile, and capacity for intimacy.
*Deepen Embodiment As we deepen physical embodiment greater awareness
arises.
When awareness rises, Belonging awakens it is incredibly imaginative, ripe
with creative fecundity.
*Benefits - The movement encourages a heartful, listening, responsive body.
These practices open a radical capacity for presence, resonance and love.

One last tidbit, from Makaan Burt:
Dancing friends:
I found this interesting....
I came across this interesting piece in THE WEEK (March 10, 2006) in its
Health and Science Section and thought you would like to see it. The piece
is entitled The DNA of dancing. It states: "Some people, it appears, are
born to dance. After analyzing the DNA of the families of 85 professional
dancers and 782 other people, researchers spotted two genes that
appeared in dancers, but not in the others. They were't genes for rhythm,
coordination, or flexibility. Instead, people who love to dance are
genetically programmed to respond strongly to hormones and chemicals that
promote feelings of spirituality, social communication, and bonding with
other people. 'The genes we studied are more related to the emotional
side of dancing,' researcher Richard Ebstein tells Discovery.Com. Dancers,
he said, have 'the need and ability to communicate with other people and a
spiritual side to their natures that not only enable them to feel the music
but to communicate that feeling to others via dance.'"
