Counseling for Bodyworkers



Homer,  and  Girdwood, Alaska June 2012


Join the author of Esoteric Anatomy: The Body as Consciousness, in this hands-on training in somatic psychology.

We will work with a synthesis of profoundly effective bodywork and counseling techniques, evolved by Heartwood's founder over three decades of research and practice. This conscious approach to body therapy facilitates a cleansing of the body's cellular memory of trauma, and promotes mental and emotional clarity and well-being.

The emphasis is on compassion, presence and vulnerability as attitudes which support a safe space in which the client has permission to heal. We will work with the client as a person, respecting the pathos of their life as a conscious evolving spiritual being. We will approach healing as a creative process that is guided by higher intelligence. We will facilitate a sacred space for releasing the past, quieting the mind and healing the heart.

Heal your life as you learn techniques that can safely be integrated into any massage or bodywork system. These techniques release trauma from the nervous system, facilitate emotional clearing, and promote personal growth.
 
You will Learn a Powerful Synthesis of Techniques Including:
* Transpersonal Psychology
* Somatic Psychology
* Holding Sacred Space

Energy As Medicine: Career Training

Polarity
                    Therapy

April 22-28, 2012
Ananda College of Living Wisdom

Heal Your Life!

Experience a profound healing through Self realization! The uniqueness of our work is a constant intention to address the Soul... the animating intelligence in the body. Our focus is two fold: first is the understanding that the Soul is experienced as consciousness, awareness, presence...  healing takes place as we work with the healing power of the Soul, which we call therapeutic presence.  Secondly,
the ancient wisdom reveals that the world is sung into being... that the world is music. Thus we work with mantra, toning and a focus on biological resonance as a key to healing the energy body.

Over the decades as we have explored the cutting edge of natural healing we have come to realize that our most effective healing tool is awareness. We understand this power as Shakti... Life  Force and work with it professionally as therapeutic presence.

This unique training in healing energy is ideal for
students of yoga and the healing arts, Reiki, cranial and massage therapists, counselors and all those wanting a deeper experience of aliveness and professional training in cutting edge healing technique.

Our Energy Medicine Professional Training, is based upon the Vedanta, Yoga, and Ayurvedic revelations of the unity and sacredness of all life.  The ancient wisdom reveals that suffering and disease are caused by our separation from our divine Self. Healing takes place as we reunite with the Self (atman).  We understand the body as energy and work holistically, through bodywork, exercise, diet and spiritual psychology to unite the individual Life with the Universal Life. 


Western psychology focuses on the mind and emotions. Transpersonal Psychology focuses on the Self, the intelligence that witnesses the stream of thoughts and feelings. While mind and emotions are a kaleidoscope of instability, the Self is a constant of stable Presence. In this training, healing takes place as we balance energy to attune our life with the Self.
As your body as an energy field becomes more coherent, centered, grounded you become more alive, whole, at peace, and ecstatically happy!

Learn Three Powerful Energy Balancing Sessions:

    • Satttvic Energy Balancing Protocol promotes deep relaxation
    • Rajasic Energy Balancing Protocol enhances vitality
    • Core Energy Balancing Protocol is profoundly healing
    • Learn Health Building Principles
    • Experience the power of Mantra Yoga, to quiet the mind and heal the heart!



This special program for Ananda College of Living Wisdom students is available to the public,
space permitting.  Please call (530) 292-3024 for tuition costs and lodging or email: reservations@meditationretreat.org

The Vedic Epiphany: Key to the Mystery of Creation


Goddess Saraswati

Goddess Saraswati


The World as Music: Keys to the Mystery of Creation

The Vedas are the ancient esoteric teachings of India. They form the foundation of orthodox Hindu philosophy and are at the root of all oriental philosophy. The vedic epiphany reveals that the world is the self-sacrifice of the creator...God becomes the world...An omnipresent intelligence expresses its creative potency through the creation. In the Vedic revelation, God does not create the world…God becomes the world.

Western religion and science offer a deist paradigm. In deist philosophies, God lies outside creation. The Vedic worldview is profoundly different; here the world is the self-sacrifice of the creator. The world is God. All creation is sacred. To know thy Self, is to know God.

Brahma, the creator, in Hinduism can be characterized as an ever expanding breath. In this cosmology, everything that moves in creation is the breath of Brahma. The spiraling galaxies of stars, whirling planetary systems, atmospheric rhythms of our Gaia’s life cycles, and the all pervasive breath that animates animal life on Earth is a unitary rhythm.

In this ancient paradigm, the universe is a living, breathing, conscious Being. In exactly the same way that the breath of life animates our body, the universe is sustained by the breath of Brahma.

How does the breath of life animate our body? How do the rhythms of inspiration and expiration sustain life? What is the mechanism through which respiration enlivens the body?  Our hypothesis can be characterized as biological resonance.

Prana is the life breath of a living universe. (From sanskrit roots pra-forth and the verb-root  an-to breathe)

The World is Music:

The vedas reveal that the world is sung into being. The ancient Sanskrit grammarian, Bhartrhari, states in his Vakyapadiya 1.112 “Vageva Vishwa Bhuvanani Jajne” The Universe is Birthed by Sound!

An unfathomable intelligence conceives of a goddess...who sings the world into creation. The  ground  state out of which creation emerges is the pranava  (from pra-nu,  to reverberate) of the primordial Holy Word Aum.  Creation is vibrating as an expression of ultimate intelligence, ultimate wisdom, ultimate love... in a universal harmony of praise.

The Goddess Saraswati  is the personification of this mystery, the embodiment of an all pervasive divine creative intelligence.  Her vehicle is the swan...the highest flying bird, which symbolizes the supreme principle in a living creation, the breath of life. The  Great Mystery of life and consciousness, is carried on the breath.

Saraswati’s celestial instrument is the vina, which symbolizes creation. Thus we have Ultimate Intelligence, carried on the breath of life, playing the music of creation.

For millennium musical instruments were fashioned of the guts and hides of animals. For these guts and hides, resonated most profoundly with the mystery of music and the winds that carried these sounds to the heart and mind.

There is no musical instrument more perfect than the human body. Indeed the human body... like all of nature... is a musical instrument. The ancients understood this. The ancient sciences of Yang and Yin, Pitta and Kapha, Sulfer and Salt were based on this vibrational knowledge of the primacy of inspiration and expiration, of the breath of life.

Key To The Mystery!
The latin word for breath is spiritus. It comes from the same roots as our word spiral... It is Spiritus that plays the instrument of nature. As we breathe, the tissue of our bodies are stretched by the act of breathing in a cycle of atunement to nature and the cosmos. On cellular and molecular levels the tissues stretches to modulate it’s musical pitch. As we breathe in, there is a lengthening of the tissue to the keynote of resonance that, cross culturally and trans-historically, the ancients called the Air  Element. Thus through atunement to the keynote Air, life force stepped down from the subtle universal elements into embodiment. Then in quantum fashion the inhalation ballooned the tissue into the radiant keynote of the creative potency of the solar Fire Element. Next in the cycle of breath is a still-point, where inner and outer forces came into balance at the Earth Element. Then as the diaphragm descends... the tissue contracts into resonance with the lunar keynote of the Water Element.

Nature is a fabric of ultrasonic resonance, attuned to the keynotes of: Earth, solidity; Water, the fluid medium for life force; Fire, the functioning of creative intelligence; Air the feedback process which is the essence of intelligence; and Ether which modulates sacred space between the subtle universal elements of the cosmos and the material elements of nature.


All of nature is vibrating in a life giving state of praise attuned to the voice of the Goddess Saraswati singing the holy word... singing the music of creation.  Saraswati means essence of Self. This understanding is a key to understanding the great mystery of life force energy.

In Energy Medicine, we work with the body and nature through this ancient epiphany of the world as music. Our approach to energy healing is defined by a constant intention to address the Soul...the animating intelligence  in the body... holistically, through hands-on bodywork, healing diet, vitalizing movement and liberating insight into the unity and sacredness of all life.

You are invited to transform your life in our personal growth and career trainings in healing body work through Polarity Therapy.
