On Campus Embodiment & Movement Display Title The Breath of Life Course Subtitle A biodynamic craniosacral training Koa Kalish See all presenters Body Support The Body and Spirit’s Innate WisdomThis introductory course invites you to explore the subtle currents of existence, cultivating a connection with inner self and outer world for healing. Through dynamic stillness and embodied felt sense, we learn to listen to the forces of natural healing and develop fluency in the language of the body. Rooted in craniosacral biodynamics, we work with primary respiration and the breath of life, sensing rhythms, still-points, fulcrums, tides, and more. Through our hands we feel the movement and flow of bones, membranes, cerebrospinal fluid, and bioenergetics, offering the body an opportunity for gentle and deep releasing of constriction, tension, and trauma.In this training, you will:Build essential skills for grounding and centering in yourself.Create safety and trust with others.Increase potency in your touch and sensitivity in your awareness.This work brings us home to the place of our intuition, insight, and inherent health, in support of the body and spirit’s innate wisdom.NOTE: 28 CEUs offered through this course Sidebar Navigation Included in Your Stay Daily Yoga Classes 3 Nutritious Meals a Day Access to the Kripalu Grounds Schedule OPENING DAY2:00 pmCheck-in begins4:45–6:00Kripalu Yoga class5:30–7:30Dinner7:30–9:00Program SessionDAILY6:30–7:45 amKripalu Yoga class7:30–9:00Silent Breakfast9:00–12:00Program Session12:00–1:30 pmLunch2:00–5:00Program Session4:45–6:00Kripalu Yoga class5:30–7:30DinnerCLOSING DAY6:30–7:45 amKripalu Yoga class7:30–9:00Silent Breakfast9:00–11:30Program Session11:30–1:30 pmLunch and DeparturePlease note: Rooms are ready by 4:00 pm.
