Presencia

  • Date: May 17 - 21, 2023

Presencia — the Spanish word for presence — is a 5-day container combining the science and spirituality of biodynamic craniosacral with somatic practices in the beautiful landscape of Mexico. This retreat is designed to deepen your relationship with dynamic stillness, the subtlety of the fluid body, and the capacity to heal yourself and others.

Delving into the guiding principles of craniosacral biodynamics, we orient to presence, wholeness and the health that is never lost. We explore inner practices such as embodied felt-sense, tonal match, full body breathing, resting in invisible midline, and abiding in neutral. We learn how to listen to Primary Respiration and the Breath of Life – cultivating our sensitivities to sense inner tides, fulcrums, stillpoints, subtle rhythms, states of consciousness, and more.

This course will invite you to develop and refine your essential skills for grounding and centering in yourself, creating and maintaining safety and trust with your partner, increasing potency in your touch and attunement in your awareness. With dynamic stillness as the guide, we cultivate our capacity to support the body’s innate wisdom of healing – in ourselves, each other, and the world.
