The endocrine glands create crystalline psychophysical states through which we are able to experience and understand the universal aspect of self. This is the system of internal stillness, surges of chaos/balance and the crystallization of energy into archetypal experiences.
The endocrine glands underlie intuition and the perceiving and understanding of Universal Mind.
This video presents key Body-Mind Centering® principles that bring ease, flexibility, and strength by embodying the endocrine system through movement and consciousness.
These principles can be applied to yoga, dance, bodywork, somatic psychology, and other somatic movement practices.
Embodying the endocrine system with material on: initiating breath, voice, movement and touch from the glands; relationship of the glands to the skeletal structures, reflex points and spinal energy centers; and techniques for integrating and balancing the gland. Covers the perineal body, coccygeal body, gonads, adrenals, pancreas, thoracobody, heart body, thymus, thyroid, parathyroids, carotid bodies, pineal, mamillary bodies and pituitary.
