guiding principles

paradigm of wholeness

  • all components are interconnected and relate to the whole.

  • awareness for the whole as you work with a part, invites a greater functioning for each part and the whole.

  • our wholeness includes the interconnectedness of body and mind- conscious and unconscious.

  • whole is whole.

sensation, presence, & breath that comes and goes on its own

  • sensation, presence, and breath that comes and goes on its own, are interrelated, inseparable, and in communication.

  • when one element is enhanced, the other two respond.

  • the breath is whole and operates in wholeness.

coherence

  • coherence is the intelligence that guides the rhythm and movement of breath.

  • coherence is aware of all components and their place and function within the whole.

  • this intelligence organizes the integration of fragmented parts with the whole.

  • it is a process of transformation and integration rather than management strategies and release.

the penumbra

  • the dynamic power that exists when opposite elements engage in balance with reciprocity.

  • this synergy not only fosters balance but also cultivates tonus- the dynamic interplay of tension with relaxation.

  • it creates a unique form of energy that is magnetic characterized by vitality without force.

  • it generates a power that is sustainable.
