Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) is commonly seen as the spiritual approach to craniosacral therapy (CST); in fact, BCST as taught by Franklyn Sills, the pioneer in the field, is quite different from conventional CST. Biodynamic work is based on the development of perceptual skills where the practitioner learns to become sensitive to subtle respiratory motions called primary respiration & also to the power of spontaneous healing. Through the Breath of Life, which, Sills asserts, echoes the Holy Spirit in the Judeo-Christian tradition, bodhicitta in Buddhism, & the Tai Chi in Taoism, students of BCST learn to enter a state of presence oriented to the clients inherent ability to heal. In Foundations in Craniosacral Biodynamics, Sills offers students & practitioners an in-depth, step-by-step guide to the development of perceptual & clinical skills with specific clinical exercises & explorations to help students & practitioners learn the essentials of a biodynamic approach. Individual chapters cover such topics as holism & biodynamics; mid-tide, Long Tide, Dynamic Stillness & stillpoint process; the motility of tissues & the central nervous system; transference & the shadow; shamanistic resonances; & more. ...

Foundations in Craniosacral Biodynamics, Volume Two: The Sentient Embryo, Tissue Intelligence, & Trauma Resolution Foundations in Craniosacral Biodynamics presents a comprehensive grounding in the clinical skills needed in a biodynamic approach to craniosacral therapy. Author Franklyn Sills places particular emphasis on developing what he terms "perceptual skills, diagnostic skills that enable the practitioner to perceive the subtle sensations & intuitive insights that are the groundwork of most forms of holistic somatic therapy. The biodynamic approach has its origins in the clinical exploration of W. G. Sutherl&, DO, (1873-1954), the founder of osteopathy in the cranial field & forefather of craniosacral therapy." In the last ten years of his life, his work changed from a biomechanical approach to a fully holistic orientation toward the ordering & enlivening forces present in the human system. Sutherland described his experiences of a mysterious presence, the " Breath of Life, from which ordering forces & healing intentions arose. His work then shifted from biomechanics to biodynamics; from analysis & motion-testing to an appreciation of the unfolding of the inherent treatment plan." Sutherland encouraged practitioners to use no outside force whatsoever, but to allow the inherent ordering forces, which he called "potency, to make the decisions & do the work. Franklyn Sills pioneered the biodynamic approach to craniosacral therapy outside the osteopathic profession. This approach has now spread around the world in various forms. Sills wrote the early books in this field, & this new book now brings the text up to date. Foundations in Craniosacral Therapy, Volume Two expands on the work described in the previous volume, starting with an overview of a biodynamic approach to craniosacral therapy, which emphasizes the suspensory nature of the human system. Here we review & deepen our understanding of the three bodies" the physical, fluid, & tidal bodies. We also review & expand upon the suspensory nature of the holistic shift the physical body suspended in the fluid body, in turn suspended in the tidal body within the context of the inherent treatment plan. The following chapters of the book orient to our earliest life experiences the embryonic period & the pre- & peri-natal experience with chapters devoted to birth, birth dynamics, & craniosacral approaches oriented both to birth trauma & to the tissue patterns it generates. Here we orient to the pre-nate & birthing infant as a sentient being having & responding to life experience. Further chapters orient to the primal/notochord midline & the tissue structures that form around it. We explore the dynamics of the pelvis, vertebral axis, cranial base, face & hard palate. Volume Two finishes with four important chapters on the neurophysiology of stress & trauma & related craniosacral & verbal skills. All chapters include appropriate biodynamic approaches to traumatization & CNS activation. ...
