The system of Chapman’s Reflexes, an exquisite network of  neurolymphatic reflexes, has a profound effect on our structural balance. This class will focus on the energetic qualities of working with the Chapman points and effective ways to integrate their responses with the structure in order not to override or overwhelm the body. Some of our objectives in this class include: 

• Review techniques of working with the Chapman’s reflexes 

• Discuss specific client issues in relationship to the reflex points

• Deepen understanding of the relationship between each reflex point as part of an  interconnected network system

• Practice self-care options through this network

• Discuss and collaborate around your specific questions and curiosities

In this study group, we will focus on honing your sensing and listening skills through a Phase 5 connection. A central theme in this course will be learning to perceive the differences between following a repeating pattern of movement in Phase 5 versus facilitating a response or new patterns of awareness through the nervous system. Some of the elements we will cover include: 

• Increase proprioceptive awareness and comfort in not doing as a Practitioner to allow the wisdom of the client’s body to respond 

• Recognize right timing of a Phase 5 release and practice the art of being

• Recognize and explore techniques and resources to come into relationship with tissue that may hold unresolved trauma 

• Explore each reflex (Rebound, Recoil, Follow-On, Ongoing Action, Regret/Remembered Emotional Response, Ciny Time Zone, Volery, and Space Between the Notes) through developing an awareness of sensing them energetically and physically in our own bodies

• Discern the options of waiting for a reflex to respond in its right timing and introducing a reflex to elicit a change in a pattern

• Your specific questions and curiosities

One of the wonders of the endocrine system is its ability to support clarity and alignment of the body’s structure when the structure itself might contain disorganization. This system is also adept at increasing flow in the energy centers of the spine and bringing a sense of connection to the groundedness of earth and the spaciousness of the cosmos. Through awareness, touch, and gentle movement, we will explore how the communication in the endocrine system can relate to other body systems and structures and how it may facilitate connection to universal wisdom. 

We will also examine the qualities and characteristics of fifteen endocrine glands and organs, their interrelationships, and how this system can be used to deepen our understanding of the body as a whole. Techniques of integrating these glands and organs through the principles of Ortho-Bionomy® will be offered and can be utilized for self-care or work with clients.

As bodyworkers, our self care can easily drop to the bottom of the priority list. We can often feel burn out, overwhelm, and/or resentment creep in when we least expect it. Our capacity for sustainability in our lives and within our career can be enhanced by understanding our relationship to our autonomic nervous system. Practices to help bring awareness and understanding to your unique nervous system to work toward increased vitality and ease will be the focus of this class. 

Through the principles of Ortho-Bionomy, we will learn how to recognize and engage the resources within our own bodies using safe, comfortable positioning and gentle movement exercises. This class is excellent for anyone wishing to relieve pain, gain adaptability, and increase ease of movement in the body. 

Objective of this course include:

• Learning options for restorative practices and breath awareness exercises to tone and support the parasympathetic nervous system.

• Exploring Ortho-Bionomy self care techniques to listen for the body’s natural self-corrective response. 

• Understanding the anatomy of stress in relation to our enteric nervous system, vagus nerve, and adaptability  of our autonomic nervous system. 

• Identifying how stress inhabits in the body, ways stress can metabolize, and how ease is sensed physiologically. 

• Exploring techniques to provide options for movement and choice through the fluid system, support structural integrity and boundaries through the skeletal system, and cultivate space through awareness of energetic relationships.

• Understanding the physiology of how the systems of our body work together to store and release energy.

The enteric nervous system, or gut brain, is a vast network of neurons and glia that controls the gastrointestinal functions on a physiological level and is the body’s truth detector on the energetic level. When the organs of our enteric nervous system are able to communicate with ease, there is resonance and vitality. When the gut is offline, feelings of safety and comfort may be difficult to find. 

In this study group, we will learn basic anatomy and physiology of the enteric nervous system, practice explorations of self care to facilitate awareness and communication in the gut, learn about intestinofugal neurons and how they increase the reflexive capacity of the gut, and practice Ortho-Bionomy® techniques and principles to work with various areas of the enteric nervous system. 

This study group can stand alone, and is also enriched with the learnings in the Peripersonal Space and Electromagnetic Field of the Heart Study Groups offered in February and March.
