Deepening Skills for Body Workers:
Attention, Awareness and Presence

with Margaret Rosenau

What we pay attention to changes the nature of how we perceive. Our perception changes the nature of our experience. When we gain insight into where our attention is and how we are perceiving, we become more present. When we know where we are in time and space, we can support our clients in present time.

These are some of the concepts we will explore in this course. In addition, students will learn how to come into relationship with the Intelligence present in all living systems and facilitate the deepening of that relationship in themselves and their clients. Students will gain valuable perception and palpation skills, including specific skills for dialoging with the autonomic nervous system. A significant amount of time will be spent working directly with autonomic nervous system facilitation.

The curriculum will include principles from Craniosacral and Polarity Therapies with the intention of deepening skills of perception, palpation and presence. Together we will cultivate the ground for our skills as bodyworkers to be even more available to us and to our clients.

The course expects students to have a working knowledge of anatomy. You must have at least 3 years of experience as a professional bodyworker to enroll in this course. A sustained meditation practice is also helpful.
