Foundations in craniosacral biodynamics

By Franklyn Sills

Franklyn Sills, a pioneering figure in the field, presents a comprehensive guide to Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy that transcends conventional therapeutic approaches. This foundational text reveals how BCST operates as a deeply spiritual practice, fundamentally different from traditional craniosacral therapy methods.

At the heart of this work lies the cultivation of extraordinary perceptual abilities. Practitioners learn to attune themselves to the subtle rhythms of primary respiration and tap into the profound force of spontaneous healing that exists within every individual. Sills introduces readers to the concept of the Breath of Life, a universal healing principle that resonates across spiritual traditions, manifesting as the Holy Spirit in Judeo-Christian teachings, bodhicitta in Buddhist philosophy, and Tai Chi in Taoist wisdom.

The book offers a systematic, step-by-step journey into developing both perceptual sensitivity and practical clinical skills. Through carefully designed exercises and explorations, readers discover how to enter states of profound presence that honor each person's innate capacity for healing. The comprehensive curriculum covers essential topics including holistic biodynamic principles, the dynamics of mid-tide and Long Tide phenomena, the experience of Dynamic Stillness, tissue motility patterns, and the intricate workings of the central nervous system.

Sills also addresses the deeper psychological dimensions of therapeutic work, exploring concepts of transference, shadow integration, and the shamanic resonances that emerge in this sacred healing practice.
