A Perceptual Journey in Osteopathy: Where is the Power for Change?
This course is the first out of two ‘Where is the Power for Change?’. It will explore the Wholeness of Body, Mind and Spirit with the latest neuroscience on consciousness, interoception, stress resilience and wellbeing, with an Osteopathic Biodynamic View.
Following recent journeys in the remote outback of Australia, while travelling through the ever-changing landscapes that have been shaped by rivers, seas, sun, wind and invisible forces over millions of years, one starts to sense an Invisible River of Life shaping life and form. This Great River of Life has been used as a metaphor in many cultures and in Osteopathy.
Dr Still referred to this in his book, Philosophy of Osteopathy:
‘He who is able to reason will see that this great river of life must be tapped and the withering field irrigated at once, or the harvest of health be forever lost’ (Still, 1899).
