“Visualize a potency, an intelligent potency, that is more intelligent than your own human mentality.”
~ William Garner Sutherland, DO, father of Cranial Osteopathy
When we look at how Nature unfurls and thrives in this world, we see that Nature is slow and intentional, steady and abundant. We see that all organically occurring life has an innate rhythm, an inborn direction and knows exactly what it’s doing.
We are Nature.
In terms of the restoration of health, the approach is the same. Nature knows how to take care. We, being Nature, have an inherent knowing and ability to restore and maintain our health and well-being, we have only drifted away from listening to our inner-guidance.
To get back to ourselves, we must hear ourselves.
Within the spectrum of what it is to be Alive, sensing is our universal compass. Allowing our sensing abilities to guide us is how we allow life to unfold and let our innate wisdom prevail. For many, this can feel uncomfortable because we have lived so long allowing fear to override intuition, that now letting the mind/Ego take a backseat feels counterintuitive to us.
It’s a matter of: responding versus (over)reacting, Soul versus Ego, Love versus Fear, Flow versus Force. As modern humans, we have largely been conditioned to operate only from inside our heads and not from the depths our bodies where vital information lives.
Getting back to Truth takes time and requires trust in ourselves.
The practice of Craniosacral Biodynamics offers an invitation to hear and honor your body’s innate wisdom again. This practice can serve as a mirror, guide and bridge to return closer to natural alignment. With spaciousness, grace and by allowing gentle expansion, vitality can be restored.
Our medicine is within.
In the setting of a Biodynamic Craniosacral session, my role is in essence to be a doula of presence. I serve as an anchor and detailed observer; facilitating a container of compassion and awareness to help clients drop into the present moment.
When we are present, our expression of health within makes itself known. Through the lens of this work, the expression of health in the human body is tracked by following a primary respirating force. Primary respiration goes beyond our biological respiratory system and its functions. Primary respiration is the ever-flowing animating force that blows through the Craniosacral System; infusing information and intelligence into the whole body. It shows itself as a tide of subtlety throughout and around the body, and is the guide for the deep listening of this practice. This tide is tracked throughout BCST sessions, providing deeper levels of awareness and revealing the unique expression of health within each individual client.

“Biologic systems have had a “Spark” and “bioenergy” system built into their mechanisms for eons. This is not an esoteric or religious fantasy; it is a simple, bioenergetic, physiological fact.”
