Register NowSpeaker Lineup:"Birth and the Primitive Brain" 9:00 - 10:30am Pacific / 12:00 - 1:30pm Eastern Dominique will explore the hormonal physiology of birth, the hardwiring of the birthing parent's brain, and the importance of understanding its implications for the future of the human species, specifically in the modern world. This talk will inform practitioners about the living biodynamics in relation to normal physiological birth and increase your understanding of how to better support resolution of nervous system injury during birthing time.
Dominique Clothiaux, RCST®, CPM, LMT is a traditionally trained and Licensed Midwife, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist, Pre & Perinatal Birth Educator, and Horsewoman from Charlottesville Virginia.
"Courage at the Roots of Osteopathy" 10:45 - 12:15pm Pacific / 1:45 - 3:15pm Eastern Elizabeth will take us on a pilgrimage into osteopathy's rich origins and its ties to Indigenous people, particularly the Shawnee. Recognizing that there's has been a lack of representation of their perspective, Elizabeth's talk is derived from her conversations with Shawnee Chiefs who are the descendants friends of those who were friends with Osteopathy's founder, A.T. Still. History is not dormant; it lives within our bones and the land under our feet. It is a living reality and a breath of life. We hope this presentation leaves you feeling inspired to carry the torch of the enduring and ever-evolving tradition of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy. Elizabeth Newman, RCST® has over 20 years of experience working with clients from all walks of life. She is a dynamic speaker and educator on topics including BCST, Stages of the Embryo, Healing from Trauma, and Grief & Humor.
1:00 - 2:30pm Pacific / 4:00 - 5:30pm Eastern Brigit will discuss differentiating neutral from the stasis of white knuckling and the disembodied depths of freeze. Participants will be able to differentiate their practitioner neutral from safety and danger states and why neutral with company is necessary yet feels dangerous to the human security system. She will show you how to identify the seven realms of human autonomic function and how to recognize the three zones of resilience.
Brigit Viksnins, RCST®, SEP, LMT created "Alchemical Alignment, Somatic Work for Trauma Resolution and Embodiment of Spirit." Alchemical Alignment is a protocol-free, spirit-led, experiential somatic modality that draws on a range of bodywork traditions. It is interactive, intimate, choice- and awareness-oriented.
2:45 - 4:15pm Pacific / 5:45 - 7:15pm Eastern Both Constellations and BCST use deep listening to someone's field to help a body or system heal. Learn more about constellation work, how it relates to BCST, and can serve you as a practitioner. Participants will learn what constellations work is, its commonalities with BCST, how the principles from constellations can be applied to your craniosacral practice. Chari Smith, BCST was a Focusing counsellor (a body-based emotional work developed by Eugene Gendlin) for 15 years and then trained in constellation work in 2017. She's done thousands of constellations over the past 8 years. Chari also studied under Anna Chitty and is a BCST graduate from Colorado School of Energy Studies. She is motivated by the fascinating overlap between the two disciplines.
