INTRODUCTION: ‘The
Lotus Thread’
The Introductory course takes its subtitle from an ancient
sutra:
“Place your whole attention on the nerve, delicate
as the lotus thread,in the centre of your spinal column.
In such be transformed.”
The Dural Tube is the name
given to the membrane system surrounding the spinal cord.
The aim of this course is to get in touch with the Dural
Tube. Learning to sense its subtle rhythm and finding ways
to help it become more flexible, we can bring awareness to
the lotus thread.
The techniques practised in this course
form the basis for the rest of the training. At the same
time it is complete in itself and may satisfy the needs of
bodyworkers who want to add a different dimension to their
work or anyone ready to enter into this new world of feeling.
As
well as tuning into the craniosacral rhythm participants
will learn to sense where the fascia of the body may be restricting
this rhythm and how it would like to move to free itself.
The next step is the Dural Tube. Since all the spinal nerves
have sleeves of Dura, bringing more flexibility to this membrane
has a beneficial effect on every organ and muscle in the
body.
The spinal cord carries messages to and from the brain.
So clearly the Dura, lying inside the bones of the vertebral
column and outside the spinal cord, provides the link between
this original interactive superhighway, and the physical
reality of the body.
