craniosacral therapy

Wellness

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that focuses on wellness by enhancing the body’s natural healing processes. Through the melding and support of the craniosacral system, which includes the cerebral spinal fluid around the brain and spinal cord, this therapy aims to release tension and improve overall well-being.

The healing journey with craniosacral therapy involves deep relaxation and a sense of connection with the body. As the therapist works with the subtle rhythm of the craniosacral system, the client may experience a release of physical and emotional tension, leading to a greater sense of balance and harmony.

Over time, regular sessions can support the body in overcoming stress, trauma, and chronic pain, promoting a state of wellness and vitality. This holistic approach to healing addresses the body as a whole, offering a gentle and nurturing way to support the body’s innate capacity for self-healing.

Wellness is key to living a healthy life.  Craniosacral is one path to take to feeling good in your body, and quite often deep in your soul. For more information, check out: www.upledger.com

Give Yourself the Best: Why Not?

Give Yourself the Best: Why Not?

,What is the Best Life You Can Live?

First, in your best life,  you would have to know what you want, and what you deserve. I am not necessarily speaking about material things, although those can be part of the equation. But those things are the afterthought.

What truly matters for you when you get down to the nuts and bolts? Imagine in the future, after a life well lived. What would be the most important thing on your mind and in your heart when you look backwards? What made that heart of yours transform into something better, more vital and full of love?  What experience made your heart feel like singing?

In this physical life, it is true that we need the basics to exist. We need food, water, a shelter and such. But the next stage after existence leads us more into passion and into healthy relationships.  We all deserve more than just existing. Although to exist is a priviledge indeed.

As people, we have the potention to sense and to feel so many things. The significance is in the experience which brings us more meaning. Much more than any objects beyond what it takes for us to live in sustainability. It’s in our growth through reaching out, learning and taking the essence of life back into our deepest core where we stir the deepest internally.

This is a short post, an invitation, to remember to question values and what contributes to living the best life one can. While life circumstances help shape us, it’s up to us, through intention and our choices and actions, where we will end up, and how we decided to live. What can be better than to Live Our Best Life. Knowing that we always have a choice.

Your best life is right now. Take that mountain of past experiences, and chose wisely your next step. At the end, that is what will count. That is what we will remember in the end when we leave with nothing else.

Joy to you!  Some poems about life.

The Body Knows How to Heal: Loving What IS..

The Body Knows How to Heal: Loving What IS..

To Heal is an Inside Job

To Heal Comes From Within You.  People often forget that there is a deep intelligence inside the body that is alway in motion when it’s healthy.  It’s our Life Force, our Qi.

If you think about it, each organ has an inherent motion, and all the other organs slip and slide along side each other with the help of the many fluids.  Down to the inside and outside of the cells, there is the nourishing  of the various components which are always at work,  joining together, like small streams, to sustain the greater whole.  There is constant communication and transmission of vital information.

So how does one access this deep intelligence?  When something goes awry in the body, it only makes sense, that an outside type of influence is necessary to nudge the system back into a cycle of health.

That’s where mindful bodywork with techniques can help. Depending on the focus, a manual therapist can listen to the body, and support the Inner Wisdom based on the response.

This can be done with Craniosacral Therapy, by a Visceral Manipulation Therapist, through Acupuncture, manipulaton by a Chiropractor, etc… Most of these therapies are complimentary and work hand in hand to heal.

For people who are searching for the best tools to help activate their healing, it’s important quite often to try different therapies, and sometimes even different therapists within a modality.  That’s because each therapy and each therapist’s unique contribution can influence you in a different way.

What’s unique about the Upledger Institute’s Work is that the focus is placed on addressing the Inner Physician.  It takes a deep trust of the Inner Wisdom, for the ego to move out of the way, and allow the melding and healing to run the process.

If you are looking seriously to shift and change your life, discover yourself through healthy relationship.  Interview and question potential therapists.  Trust your own instincts, and the truth for you in the moment will tell you your next move.  Realize, that Therapists can help by encouraging the healing cycle.  But it’s only your Inner Resources that can make it happen.

Unlocking the Healing Energy of Your Heart After a Masectomy

Unlocking the Healing Energy of Your Heart After a Masectomy

Aftercare for Masectomy

Undergoing a masectomy can’t be easy for any woman. The healing process can take time. The hospital will send you home with all the information you need to take immediate care of yourself. Yet whether you decide to do reconstruction or not,  the tissues can heal better, when you are ready, with gentle touch, listening and melding.

Once your general recovery after the mastectomy is finished, you might want to investigate bodywork. Lymphatic Massage can help with drainage and managing swelling. It’s non-invasive and can be helpful long-term. Craniosacral Therapy can also be very helpful because it focuses on the Craniosacral System, which can help enliven the nervous system functioning after surgery. It also can help to soften the fascia and bring about better circulation and sensation. Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds and holds the body together from a cellular level to all the wrapping around all the components through the web of its structure in the whole body.

I have often worked with women around the breast tissue and after surgery. Listening and melding with the tissues can support a great shift to feeling better about yourself, and how you feel.  Also, with the gentle techniques, with an experienced Craniosacral Therapist, he/she can  support you to process through them easier with body centered care.  Most often Craniosacral Therapist get into this type of work because they have a lot of heart.  Support like this can help you to feel more deeply into your heart again too.

For more information, check out www.upledger.com.  When you interview any therapist, ask questions, especially about their experience and certification.  It’s best to find someone who you feel will provide a safe and caring environment.

Focus on Your Potential: Live More Fully

Focus on Your Potential: Live More Fully

Healing is All about the Potential

 

Experience Potential from A Craniosacral Therapist Perspective.

Our bodies are individual physical containers.  They are also miraculous living skins with dynamic occurences happening inside of us all the time.

What we are made out of is beyond comprehension really.When we look at the human body, quite often we look from an antiquated view, believing that we are a body of individual parts. In fact, we are living organisms where everything is interconnected and alive with the processes of life. All of our cells, tissues and organs and fluids are inter-dependent for our well being.

Sometimes people come into a Craniosacral Session wanting to know why something happened, or explain their histories, hoping to find the answer. The problem is that the answer is not something we “know” or else it would be done. Because we would all naturally want to be healthy. Right?

Instead the whole is really not completely understood. In fact it is changing from moment to moment. The “parts” are shifting and the container is too. There is a certain mystery which plays its part within all of us. When we can mindfully touch into our core potential though, all kinds of miracles can happen. Everything is touched and changed in an instant.

This potential for healing is found by mutually waking up to awareness.  The sense of “I” and the Unknown make acquaintence and swim through the currents together until they reach shore.  This really isn’t something we can make happen.  It’s instead a question of all the possibilities in life.  Life brings you back into Wholeness.

I have found, that when people come to see me in a vulnerable position, they are often willing to open up to their Inner Potential to see what else is avialable. An open mind is a great place to live in.  This Potential can be physical, emotional, a belief system, heart connection, or spiritual.  

As systems meld and blend, they come together in mutual satisfaction and unity.  When inner resources find each other, something wakes up deep inside.   The little nudge can initiate great change in a person’s inner environment. One of my main hopes in life is that we all self-realize that we are meant to come together on so many levels of living.

This may sound abstract, maybe it is.  But from what I have witnessed, healing comes from two places really:

1.  Grace

2. The ability to enfold into the dynamic change potential of who we are. The more we discover our authentic self through curiosity, witnessing and our experience, the more empowered and wise become.  Throw in a little compassion, and the path becomes more clear, and more easy.

I have also noticed that when we begin to listen.  Truly listen to the early signs, the easier it is to move through our challenges.

The question of “Why” Doesn’t really move us anywhere. Instead, when we fall down in life, dive  it’s helpful to dive into our own potential.  You may need others to help you.  Most likely you will at times, but the “light” , whatever you need on a soul level, is right there, a living potential.  Waiting.  Reconnection is so vital.
