Craniosacral and Meditation

One of the reasons why I embraced Craniosacral Therapy was that it has helped me to come more fully into a living meditation.

For a long time, being a constant thinker, it was difficult to quiet down my mind.  During a yoga class, the instructor would leave some time for silence and my chatter continued.  If I was in a in a Meditation group or at the BBSH school, the same thing would happen.  I would observe everyone quiet and emanating more with joy and healthy expression, and I'd be jumping from one thought to the next.  No empty space for me!


Fortunately, when I began to see my first Craniosacral Therapist,  mindful touch techniques and presence began to help me to relax and release old thoughts.  My body felt more enlivened and vital, yet with that tranquil sense of peace without stress.  It was a great relief to quiet down and empty out all the things that were not so relevant.   Progressively, my nervous system changed from anxious to calm. Something that definitely helped me and I knew could help others.

Being a believer in offering what I have learned... I started my own Craniosacral Therapy study and practice about 10 years ago.  Currently, as a Massage Therapist and Certified Advanced Craniosacral Therapist through the Upledger Institute, I have now worked with many people, helping them in the way that I appreciated being supported.  With this work, people genuinely experience new ways of living that help them come more to center and balance, yet feeling energized and generally more positive.  Moving away from pain and stress can change an outlook very easily!



Craniosacral Therapy can be helpful for ADHD,  although it takes commitment to accept the work:), headaches and migraines, fibromyalgia, neck and back pain, digestive issues, nervous system disorders and so much more.  It works with the body's fundamental ability to self-correct and heal on its own.  It is very light touch, but its' profound effects can transform a stressful state, whether physically or emotionally, into a lighter and optimized way of living.
