Refining biodynamic touch and perception skills requires an orientation to deep health that includes a connection with a relational field of dynamic stillness. To achieve this it needs the practitioner to let go of the familiar so that the body can truly unfold itself without containment from the practitioners subtle intentions. 

The essence of nature is undivided. Nothing needs to be done in order for it to be whole. However, the human habit of ‘doing’ results in an inevitable division as the ‘doer’ has separated from the whole to try and alter something. For example, when a therapist applies a technique, with the intention of fixing a problem, the habit to ‘do’ fragments the inherent nature of a relational field.  

We are caught up in our conditioning and that leads us to narrow the health possibilities for the client. By understanding that our habitual use of intention (or doing) derives from our own patterns of prior experience provides a great insight. This insight is to ’see’ beyond the limitations of that which is familiar and illuminate the nature of the unknown. Such insight involves a deep felt-sense enabling a relational field which begets physiologic balance.

Are we as BCST practitioners aware of these subtle intentions?
Is there a remedy for such habitual intention?
Can we be ok with freedom from the known in this context?
What is just knowing?
How do we invite non-doing?

This post graduate seminar will explore:

• The ramifications of intention, use of appropriate initial intent & letting it go

• Differing level’s of doing in the therapeutic setting

• The client needing to ‘do’ 

• Letting go of doing (noticing rather than intention to let go) 

• Thought, identification and the subtle nature of intent

• Experiencing versus Experience

• Felt-sense hormesis and sensation based equanimity

• Understanding different approaches to non-doing

• Pandiculation

• Dynamic stillness & perception beyond the senses (including thought)

• Freedom from the known & compassion

This workshop will explore the deep core nuclei of the brain. Distinguish between grey and white matter - the way the brain is formed into cortex and fibre tracts and basal nuclei. The brain has the most remarkable neural flows and hot spots of activities. Each area of the brain will be mapped and discussed to create a supersensitive touch that enables you to differentiate areas and flows of the brain. In addition, exploring new research on the flow of CSF not just around the brain but washing through it. Neuroglial cells and neural stem cells will also be explored.

• Glymphatic system

• New research on glial cells and stem cells

• Deep fibre tracts and the corpus collosum

• Basal nuclei, insula, pre-frontal cortex

• Limbic system in depth

• Mapping key cortical centres

• Feeling neurons and neurotransmitters

• Brain plasticity and relational touch
