You have an innate intelligence within you that drives your nervous system to organize around beauty.. around ✨light. Given the space and support, it'll do just that!

Just some intel in this world where we're filled with reasons for our nervous systems to be on high activation: gearing up for survival mode without the chance to complete that build up of energy.

Bodies are remarkable. They carry all the wisdom of your ancestors and some potent intelligence.

They know how to send energy where it's needed most.

In craniosacral sessions, this is exactly what happens. Somewhere in the session, a quietness takes over and the nervous system settles.

Then, your own magic mojo from someplace beyond my understanding takes over. ✨

It's powerful and lovely all at once.

Orienting. Feeling where you are exactly on this Earth, in this space, in this time, is such a huge part of somatic work. Once you feel yourself in your body in the place you are, you can start to assess if you're in danger [in the present].

Tracking these sensations as you begin to become aware in this present time, helps complete waves of activation from past survival responses.

Somatic work can be a powerful way of helping those fight/flight/freeze responses complete back out of your body. So you don't have to be on alert well after the danger has passed.

Yep. Everyone's in overdrive. It seems normal.

But it's not. Nervous systems aren't meant to be in a constant state of activation.

They're meant to move energy towards survival in waves. 🌊 So, if the wave never comes back down, have mercy, it's just more stress to your system. More tension. MORE OVERWHELM.

We're meant to complete these waves and let the rest come in again. To savor the silence. To let the slowness lollygag and loaf around in our bones.

When folks experience craniosacral, their system's have a sacred, carved out time to feel this 💯 (plus usually, a whole lot of "holy smokes, I've never felt so relaxed" or "I feel like I just took mushrooms 🍄" 😂).

Don’t ever forget [amid the noise and pain] that within you is a moving, living system. And your own beautiful, healing, powerful juju flows in a sacred movement through your skull and spine (sciency folks call this the cerebrospinal fluid).

It has a rhythm to it. As does all of nature 🌊
————

What is the craniosacral rhythm? Deep within the body, the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord moves in gentle, repeating cycles.

In craniosacral therapy, practitioners learn to listen to these subtle rhythms through light touch.

There are constant patterns of movement, adjustment, and self-organization happening beneath our awareness. Take a look around outside: it’s happening here too. 🌳

Craniosacral therapy invites us to slow down, listen, and support the body’s natural capacity for balance…to listen and work with this rhythm.

If you were raised any bit like me, to be quiet, to be still, to be small... then you may know what it feels like to ignore your body sensations.

More than likely, those sensations were telling you that something was wrong. But pretending we didn't feel them was easier than the feeling of not belonging or the sense we were doing something wrong.

Feeling sensation. Being with how we feel on the inside (interoception) is such an important part of coming back home to our bodies. It's how we learn to trust our intuition again... how we learn to feel safe. And how we move towards sovereignty again.
