Healing: The Most Powerful Force Is Found in Nature

Healing Arises From a Place Deeper Than the Physical Body.

Healing. When we walk outside on a beautiful day, it’s easy to feel the harmony of life in nature. There is a flow, an order, and also innate structure which allows life to happen.

There exists a summation of all the individual parts that enhance the whole. The changes of the seasons, the new beginnings and endings all give us an idea of the depth of life beyond what we can even imagine. Life makes sense, yet there is still the Unknown.

The mystery. When life goes off course, miracles do happen. Quite often something which is needed gets brought into the equation to make it all work. Yet it not usually the case that we can MAKE healing happen. Rather it’s like an ingredient that is gathered in and offered. It’s the right combination. It’s the melding into unity that gives rise to strength and recovery.

With Craniosacral Therapy, and Visceral Manipulation, it is usually the listening, blending, and the gentle touch that suggests a new possibility. The invisible intelligence within connects down to the cellular level, the tissues, the organs and a whole system. I feel this with all of the people who rest on my table. Often it feels like bringing in change and a new way that opens the door for turning on shifts, growth and integration.

For clients, in between sessions, I often recommend taking off the shoes and walking through a park and feeling the earth’s grounding as life unfolds. Observe the sky which goes beyond the clouds and through space. Imagine all the things to which we are all connected. Some known, but most not.

Healing, is more than the body. It’s the life force and intelligence that is experienced throughout all of nature.

Listen to your body. Notice how you belong, and how all things fit into the pulse of life.

Make Your Life Easier by Slowing Down

Make Your Life Easier by Slowing Down

So much of what we do seems important. It all stacks up. But slowing down and taking one thing at time is a great tool to get things done even more efficiently. We think more clearly when we give space and quiet to our minds.

Enjoy Your Life

There is no treasure more valuable than to truly “Be Yourself”. How you discover this is to be mindful, and allow the wind to bring it to your attention.

Not only listening to your thoughts, but also sensing into your body.

Make the time to listen and meld with your own “Being”. The dance between therapist and client with Craniosacral Therapy and Visceral Manipulation, can take you deep into the evolution of your soul.

Experience Personalized Craniosacral Sessions:Unlock Your Bodies Potential to Heal

What Happens in Craniosacral Sessions?

First of All, I’d like to say that Craniosacral Therapy is not Massage. Although, there are many massage therapists who get interested in this type of manual therapy because it is so valuable in helping people to move back into long-term health. The Craniosacral Sessions look much different. It’s light touch, yet very powerful.

When You come in for a Craniosacral Session, you stay fully clothed. Most sessions last about an hour. Personally I keep them at 75 minutes. Instead of using lotions and creams, a Craniosacral Therapist listens intently to the person’s Craniosacral Rhythm which is created in the brain, and flows around the nervous systems. The sessions are very quiet unless the person on the table begins to deepen into a cellular memory or feelings. Advanced Cranosacral Therapists are trained to help when this happens. If you are looking for someone Certified, check out www.upledger.com. They are the leading school teaching Craniosacral Therapy.

It’s an experience unlike any you have probably experienced. A whole body melding and transformation occurs. It’s your own Deeper Wisdom emerging and bringing calm and centeredness most often into the session. People often tell me, that it’s the most calm they have felt in a long time.

Here’s How to Build Intimacy Safely

by SharonHartnett | May 28, 2024 | Massage License in Ohio: 33.007505-H-K

Intimacy Within

Actually most people who find their way to see me are searching to find a deeper intimacy within themselves. The symptoms they usually express include stress, and quite often pain. These though are truly only layers.

With somatic bodywork, the body tells the history. Stress and pain walk hand in hand with physical tension. As we age, with life’s twists and turns, it’s easy to move away from our physical body cues. The body tightens. The tissues contract and fluidity dries up. We don’t necessarily complete healing processes in real time, and we feel it. Ultimately, we end up carrying around old unresolved patterns and habits that distract us from our very real and deep Inner Resources and Core. For someone who is trained in Somatic Bodywork, this is easy to see and to feel in the relationship, and by noticing posture and through touch. For those of us who are ultra-sensitive, we can experience this even being in the energy of the person.

What I have found over the years to be true, is that in order to feel whole and complete, we must become intimate with ourselves through mindful awareness. With Craniosacral Therapy, we as therapists listen to the body intently. We pay attention to the rhythms and vitality. We hold space for our clients to meet themselves through the different layers of consciousness by connecting to the Craniosacral and Nervous Systems primarily. Sometimes this is easy for clients. At other times, it is very difficult to sense and feel who and what we truly are. Quite often as the trust builds, clients will connect with their fears, their tears, and pain, later to watch them dissolve and find new freedom.

In order for a session to be supportive, the Craniosacral Therapist needs to stay neutral, and in respect to the Deeper Well of Wisdom inside. We Craniosacral Therapists are the mirrors who help people to find the way back home. And to me, this is back to experiencing their True Selves. That spark that is You, deserves to be found. There is a great and precious gift waiting to be known. This is the potential evolution of each individual.

I don’t expect that most people have this experience all the time. But the more and more we have the moments of Self-Realization, we learn to break negative patterns and to remember our own confidence, love and power. We find deeper and greater meaning in life. This does mean taking an intimate look within. Craniosacral therapy can be a doorway to do this.

The Quality of Touching Fascia and the Craniosacral System.

by SharonHartnett | May 26, 2024 | craniosacral, Craniosacral Therapy, healing, Massage License in Ohio: 33.007505-H-K, upledger institute

Touching the Facia and Craniosacral System from an Artistic Craniosacral Perspective.

I love this floral picture of the various layers in color. It reminds me of how when I am listening to the Craniosacral System inside the human body, that the fascia is so closely related to everything. Visually one can see these bright vibrant colors in this picture individually, but we can also notice the melding and adding into the interconnection of the whole in beauty.

That’s how it feels when a Craniosacral Therapist is listening with our hands. We feel the many layers of conscious cells, tissues, organs and sytems which are alive and communicating. There is a deliciousness to understanding in a deeper context how the body is organized and flowing through our gentle manual touch. Swimmingly, there is so much information moving through the super highways of the fascia. The sensitive in our hands are feeling the fascia acting as the medium of interconnection and dynamic motion. To me, it feels like the Craniosacral System is at the bottom of the well which informs the rest of the body how to move through life. The fascia is the orchestra playing out the song.

As Craniosacral Therapists, we can’t isolate the work we do. We tune in, and listen. Pieces arise and move toward the whole. We meld, and blend, just like this gorgeous artwork. Patterns and Essence Intelligence lead the way to healing and growth. Something profound happens when we connect with the cerebral spinal fluid and its rhythm, so that the nervous system finds peace and it’s own sense of inner agency.

Craniosacral Therapy affects us in a way that awakens the Higher Self and Inner Wisdom. It provides a bridge to sourcing ourselves and finding meaning and understanding in our lives. After years, of receiving and offering this work, I find it to be a road to the “Taste of Bliss”. Yet, we all discover what is meant for us through each interaction we make, when and at the time that it right for us. With enough mindful work, we discover that the wonder of the body is always here. Most often Craniosacral Therapy slows us down, and activates that which moves from dormant to vibrance and resonance. It helps us to be freed to live in the moment.
