This advanced biodynamic course will deepen your clinical practice using principles of Primary Respiration, dynamic stillness and visualizing the Breath of Life. The contemporary client is metabolically unhealthy and a shift in focus to include visualizing spiritual Health is necessary. Metabolic health is linked to the inner subtle body in Eastern medical systems. We learn that Primary Respiration and dynamic stillness are important biodynamic aptitudes including visualizing medicinal colors based on my experience of Tibetan medicine. Dr. Sutherland mentioned the Breath of Life seventeen times in his writing. He perceived that it is a bright light. Perceptual skills of five different colored lights in the fluid body and vascular system are taught based on Sutherland’s perception of the Breath of Life.
Primary Respiration is taught as the element of wind, stillness as the element of space and the heart and vascular tree as the element of fire, the potency according to Dr. Jealous. We learn to work with the potency of Primary Respiration in the vascular system and visualizing medicinal colors in two protocols. The fluid body and the vascular tree of the client become rigid with metabolic problems. These protocols of finding the Health in the Breath of Life are easily integrated into one’s biodynamic practice.
