Bodywork

Bodywork is a process designed to release deeply held unconscious memories from the body so that we can invite an increased flow of energy, greater capacity for movement, improved feeling of well-being and the ability to perform physically and mentally at a higher level.


The body remembers everything that we have ever experienced. All of our joy and all of our pain is remembered and unconsciously stored in the body's organic mind. Where we have not been able to release or resolve stress we internalise it. The memory of these experiences can chrystalise in the tissue in many ways such as muscular tightness, body pains and inhibited breathing. These body memories, often outside our awareness, influence our thinking, emotions and behaviour. They limit our capacity to give and receive love, to trust in our own judgement, to easily step into new situations and to take up new projects.

The Benefits

Body Transformation is of benefit to every body. It can be seen as part of one's health management. It invites an increased flow of energy, greater capacity for movement, improved feeling of well-being and the ability to perform physically and mentally at a higher level. With the release of unconscious memories that have controlled our perception, we can be open to increased intimacy and move into the world with less fear. We can experience a greater sense of unity with the deepest part of our being.

The Process

Body Transformation is usually offered as a series of 7 ninety minute sessions. It utilises a unique blend of deep tissue and subtle bodywork to enable a wholistic body re-education to realign the body, correct postural imbalances and facilitate release of tension. 

Sessions 1 - 3
In these sessions we begin the initial opening: releasing inhibited patterns of breathing, inviting more vital organic life-force and enabling the rediscovery of the flow of feeling life in the body.

Sessions 4 - 6
These sessions work deeply to release holdings in the musculature and attachments to the pelvis, lower back, belly and legs. As the lower body is the foundation of the whole, this enables a gradual recovery of our natural ease of movement, flexibility and grace.

Session 7
With the releasing and balancing of the neck, skull and face, the intellect is invited to assume it's appropriate place at the service of our knowing rather than overriding it.

 

Sessions are around 1.5 hours long and available at Camberwell and Hurstbridge. To talk about a session or make a booking contact Anna anna@openingtolife.com.au 0408 954 120
