Seminar Topics
“The Heart of Flow” consists of the following core topics that are built upon with further sub-topics.
Evolutionary Biology of Heart Formation throughout Nature
Vortex Rings and Fluid Flow function of the Heart
Electro-physiology of the Heart
Transpersonal Space of the Heart supporting practitioners and clients experiences
Somatic movement education with Continuum for practitioner personal Heart explorations
Practitioner table exchanges with orientations to support insights learned about the Heart.

Seminar Outcome
After completing the seminar, participants will have acquired skills and knowledge to enhance their practice of Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) in relation to the heart. Here are key points and learned skills from the seminar:


Enhanced Understanding of Evolutionary Biology of the Heart: Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the principles of evolutionary biology and its relevance to somatic movement and biodynamic Craniosacral therapy. They will explore how evolutionary processes inform the heart and body’s inherent intelligence and adaptive capacities. How it can also build a greater sense of interconnection with life.
Proficiency in Working with Vasomotion: Practitioners will gain advanced knowledge and techniques for working with vasomotion, understanding its influence on the body’s self-regulation and overall health. They will learn to support optimal vasomotion patterns through biodynamic Craniosacral therapy, facilitating deep relaxation and restoration in their clients.
Navigating Transpersonal Space: Participants will explore the concept of transpersonal space and its significance in the therapeutic process. Through guided meditations, somatic movement explorations, and group discussions, practitioners will develop skills to navigate transpersonal dimensions, facilitating profound shifts and connection with clients’ higher selves.
Heart-Centered Therapeutic Approaches: Practitioners will deepen their understanding of the heart’s role in healing and transformation. Through advanced techniques in biodynamic Craniosacral therapy and somatic movement, participants will learn to access the heart’s wisdom and resilience, supporting clients in cultivating compassion, joy, and connection.
Integration of Theory and Practice: The retreat will provide a platform for practitioners to integrate theoretical knowledge with practical skills. Through experiential learning, case studies, and peer-to-peer exchanges, participants will deepen their understanding and refine their application of evolutionary biology, vortex rings, vasomotion, transpersonal space, and heart-centered approaches.
Professional Growth and Expansion: The seminar will empower participants to elevate their professional practice and expand their therapeutic toolkit. By integrating the retreat’s teachings into their work, practitioners will enhance their ability to address complex patterns, facilitate deep healing, and support clients in their personal growth and transformation.
Community and Networking: The retreat will foster a supportive community of like-minded practitioners, creating opportunities for networking, collaboration, and ongoing learning. Participants will have the chance to connect with colleagues, share experiences, and build lasting relationships within the field of somatic movement and biodynamic Craniosacral therapy.
