Using the no-mind space in Cranio Sacral Therapy to harness the body's healing powers with Etienne Peirsman

As so often happens, when something very challenging, very painful comes your way, it can be life-changing.  It's the Universe waking you up.  This was certainly the case for Etienne Peirsman, a leader and author in the field of Cranio Sacral Therapy.  He tells us how a near-death experience due to a staph infection lead to a trip to India where he did more than recover - he found his life purpose.  To heal and teach people the Cranio Sacral approach.

We discuss what is behind our resistance to working with the body's own healing capacity.  What's that about?  Etienne feels the roots lie in how we are educated and how society is structured.  The emphasis is more on the (unintentional) programming of people rather than allowing space for the discovery of one's purpose, one's gift, and for connection to Self, intuition and "no-mind".  As an example, he describes the impact on child development of a classroom-based two-dimensional learning environment.

But the restriction of our true nature begins even earlier, at birth.  Etienne describes how the aggressive experience of immediately having the umbilical cord cut affects a baby on all levels ( and he has seen thousands through his work).  Not to mention the high number of elective Caesareans.  What can we do to reconnect to ourselves, our being?

We finish with a discussion on how Cranio Sacral Therapy works and the power of touch.  Etienne says the effect is "instant mindfulness", a state that allows "full consciousness of feeling".  It's all about "listening" and not intervening.  It's engaging the body's own wisdom, which makes sense - we all know that every night in deep sleep the body conducts repairs.  So with two bodies connected energetically, you're simply strengthening the process.
