Our Fluid System: The Body’s Dynamic Matrix
Our body has a cellular and interstitial fluid foundation. These fluids traverse membranes to transform into blood, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), synovial fluid and lymph. Each fluid expresses and is receptive to different qualities of somatic presence and touch.
We will explore and discern the qualities of grounded, weighted bloodful touch (including arterial, venous and capillary- isoring qualities) and the rarified, spacious cerebrospinal fluid rhythm. The balance of fluid presence, touch and movement lies between these two. Along with knowing your client’s affinities, developing your range of fluid connection will aid you, the massage therapist & bodyworker to communicate and facilitate transformation in your client.
This class is based largely on principles of Body-Mind Centering® and is aimed to help practitioners refine their somatic presence, manual applications and support somatic intelligence through skilled touch and movement. Participants learn to broaden and apply their touch and presence palettes to the modalities and protocols they already use.
We begin class with simple qigong exercise and continue with demonstration, hands-on and experiential activities. Please bring comfortable, modest clothing. For more information visit: www.intouchsomatics.com
