Gateways: A Center for Healing

“As long as you try to stop a pain, you’re repressing part that needs to be expressed. That is the cause of pain. The cause of pain is not allowing who you are to express, in some way or some element of life. As long as you try to stop pain, and/or judge pain as being wrong you’re not being WITH pain. Just like someone is angry all the time is not really EVER angry. They are in the mind, they are in the concept of anger, if they actually FELT the anger they would punch something, they’d yell and in a couple of moments it would be OVER. Remember, the emotional brain controls the threshold of excitability of every sensory and motor neuron of the body. So, if someone is bound-up they are not being honest with themselves, simple.”
--Donny Epstein

"The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you....
Don't go back to sleep....
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don't go back to sleep". ~ Rumi

We all must be wounded in life...

“We all must be wounded in life, and the bigger the gift we have to give, the bigger the wound is. In life we must be wounded to crack us open to shape us for our destiny of service to other people. Like it or not it’s just the way it is. Now you can focus on ‘poor me, this is the reason my life is the way it is’ or you can say ‘Wow, I was cracked open early in my life because I have a lot of gifts to give’. It doesn’t matter which is true or which is false. One will make you ill and the other will liberate you….

So, it’s a choice.”

Genetic Threads

2009-05-16T13:50:00.000-07:00

The genetic threads that connect our lineage all vibrate in unison with unexpressed energy of our ancients. If avoided it creates disharmony and disease within our lives, but when accepted and celebrated release vast energies that travel along the threads of the past, present and future.

We are culturally supported in placing the blame for our dysfunctions on our parents. In reality, the function that our parents serve for us is to create the pressure necessary for us to become that which our grandparents were unable to fully express.

Off to a Network Spinal Analysis Seminar in San Jose

2009-04-30T13:54:00.001-07:00

March 1-3, 2009 DoubleTree San Jose Airport

This seminar includes the concepts of wellness outcomes and the evaluation of the spine and nervous systems for greater somatic awareness and strategies of the first of the four Levels of Care.

The practitioner will better understand adverse mechanical spinal cord tension patterns, and the sub systems which help achieve and maintain spinal and neural integrity. These subsystems include the Passive, Active, Neural Control and Emotional Subsystems. The Respiratory Wave and its entrainment to spinal motion and tension release, and the concept of the Spinal Gateway™ as an access point for spinal and neural self assessment, self regulation and self organization will be introduced.

Learn the Epstein theory of defensive Central Nervous System patterns which produce spinal distortion patterns.
Understand how segmental distortion and muscular and neural facilitation are reactions to a central nervous system with adaptive challenges.
Learn how a low force introduced at the appropriate Spinal Gateway™ will assist the brain in better observing the body-mind and self-organizing.
Learn the indicators of adverse spinal cord tension, how to classify these tension patterns, know as the Five Phases of Adverse Mechanical Spinal Cord Tension.
Discover how to apply low force specific contacts to achieve greater somatic and spinal awareness, and its associated initiation of unique organizational strategies linked to wellness, life enjoyment and spinal and neural integrity

Balance is poison

2008-12-06T13:26:00.000-08:00

Every disorder, disease, and belief is held within its pattern by opposing forces. It takes energy to maintain a disease or attitude; one's entire physiology must be precisely tuned in order to support it.

Maintaining balance requires funding that which does not serve you.
