It’s been such a pleasure in the time of coronavirus quarantine offering private lessons to this lovely young woman.🧚‍♀️

Nadin Tuikina is a professional osteopath with a very sensitive nature, who felt the calling to dive deeper into the subtle arts of biodynamics which I specialise in. As she puts it she feels “biodynamics is more pure” than the traditional osteopathic approach.

It’s been an incredible experience sharing the magical cosmos of biodynamics with her, my very first personal student, a true inspiration for me and initiation into teaching.

Some amazing information about the importance of CSF (the fluid that surrounds our brain and central nervous system) and sleep.

During sleep this fluid that normally stays around the surface of the brain, can enter deep within the brain and flush out waste and toxins collected in the brain cells, thus rejuvenating us.

Not seldom do we have headaches when we don't sleep well: most likely because waste and toxins collect in our brain. And when we have a good sleep we usually feel fresh and sparkly! The fluid has entered and cleaned out the waste, it also provides nutrients to the brain cells: we are revitalised!

Good sleep is a very important prescription for staying healthy. In craniosacral biodynamic sessions it is very common that people will enter in very deep state of sleep and relaxation: now we can understand why the body chooses to do this!

We are quite literally having our brains washed every night. Neuroscientists have now produced a fascinating video that shows this nocturnal pulsing process in action.

- I AM HERE TO HOLD YOU -

I am here to hold you and tell you that you are safe.
You are enough.
You are accepted and loved.

The reason why I’m writing this post is because I have met so many people that were either unable to connect, to express or allow themselves to be seen, to be heard or held, but the craving, the need and the instinctual survival mode can only be at easy if these qualities and calls in us are answered properly. One of the reasons why I’m practicing Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is because I wish to bring more awareness in to the world in the field of Healing Through Sacred Presence (let it be on any levels) which from my understanding is a very profound and exquisite, gentle form of healing.

So many of us have experienced loss, grief, anger, hatred (to name a few) in our early development as an infant, as a young child or even as an adult. The “baggage” that we carry with ourselves is deeply rooted in our core, imbedded in our cells throughout our lives and maybe we haven’t had the time to get to know these feelings, these unwanted thoughts and sensations. These samskaras or blockages in our bodies are calling out for us to listen, to let them rise to the surface of our awareness so we can be with them and take care of them - just like when we’re cleaning the house.
Maybe it wasn’t time yet, maybe there was no space or listening ears for you to express or just to stay with it...

I am inviting you to take a deep scan within your system (body-mind-heart) and without looking or searching just be aware of what is there.

What is it that you feel?
Where in the body do you feel it?
Can you stay with it for a while?

Take a deep inhale - stay with it

Let the air out - and let it go

May this be a reminder for you to look after yourself. Always start with yourself with the magic tool of sensing what is, holding what is and loving whatever it is!

🦋✨Kimberely's Experience: Wonders to Behold ✨🦋

"I've had my share of adventure injuries and struggle with neck and back pain fairly often. Fortunately. there is a method of therapy that is simple, non-intrusive and inexpensive- that supports my body's expression of transformation: craniosacral therapy. I can't say enough good things about it, partly because I spent so long on the wheel of western medicine, with its insurance schemes and lack of knowledge about the human energy system.

Today, Ageliki Papadopoulou gave me a session. She tuned in to my body's natural rhythms and flows. She gently held the base of my spine and back of my head as the energetic motion and fluids circulated and "came together". She used soft touch techniques to allow the shoulders, clavicle, and areas in the throat to reposition, roll, readjust, sink down and open. Bones in my skull, jaw, mandible and face twisted, knocked, and popped on their own- as she closely followed these motions with her awareness. With experience, intuition and attention, she provided just the right amount of time in each area, in perfect sequence that supported releasing, and used incredible skillfulness when addressing "stuck" areas.

Ageliki used a technique of holding the two front teeth to correct a torsion pattern inside my head! Once it realigned, a huge release of lower belly tension opened and I was all smiles, full of light, brimming with joy and gratitude. Finally!!! Relief from the neck pain!!!

Here's the kicker- western medicine doesn't buy in to the fact that the skull and facial bones move--- even though we use dental braces! But our skull IS moving and articulating, and all those fluids, neurons, molecules and electricity (around the brain and spinal sac) is communicating with all of the other body systems in the body. Old injuries DO impact how the head and spine are talking to the other body parts. My view is that surgical intervention, braces, sports injuries- all play a role in creating disruptions in the energetic flows, sometimes causing restrictions in the body's overall rhythm - and we label these disruptions and blockages "pain", "illness", "addiction", "sleep disturbance" or "depression".

Ageliki's training allows her to perceive and follow these motions, never pushing or directing or trying to "fix" or "change" or "heal" - but instead, she gave space and intuitive "prescence" for what Kimberly's body needed at a specific point in time.
And that's always changing.

Thank you Ageliki for not having any plans or programs, for not putting me in a treatment box of pills and surgery, for your dedication to your work and to others...... supporting my body's transitions, journey, and change. Thank you, thank you, thank you! "
