Flourishing In This World

Flourishing is what I want for my clients.  Not just feeling OK. But living a quality life with all its ups and downs. Nothing in life is Perfect, but we can learn to navigate and pass through life with joy and connection.

While “flourishing” is my hope, and this is my intention with each and every person who comes to my office- I also have to let go of any outcome with my clients.  This frees up the session.  When a person comes to see me, wanting to feel better, I have to put my ego to the side and trust what their Inner Physician speaks. The blending is a surrender to what is.  Accessing the best resources to help a person releive stresses, pain and suffering.

What is the Inner Physician?   It’s a cornerstone belief in Dr. John Upledger’s teaching where we learn to trust and support the deepest inner wisdom of our clients. In order to enhance wellbeing, we learn techniques to help a person process and self-discover their best sense of centeredness and Self. This is done by being in a neutral place, and also by facilitating the inner process of the client. At the same time,the Craniosacral Therapist also monitors herself and the relationship with the same care during dialogue.

This is very different than other types of bodywork where there is a “fix it” attitude.With Craniosacral Therapy, we know that we can’t fix anything really.  What we can do is support the client’s wish to heal and to grow, while offering gentle nudges and support.  You would be amazed at how much change can happen with the gentlest touch with intention with the help of  the Inner Wisdom.  By melding we are quite often quiet, listening,holding space and in contact.   It’s a matter of connecting and faith of the Craniosacral System to show us the best direction within the body.

Flourishing to me, is to learn to live in this world of light and darkeness,and everything in between.  To thrive through acceptance, inclusion, and compassion.  I feel that we know that we are flourishing when we feel alive,aligned and in  appreciation in the whole.  Oftent to flourish, means knowing our place in the inter-connection of life.  Craniosacral Therapy is one of the modalities that can awaken us to remember this.
