The Art and Science of Body Harmony

Body Harmony is unique in its approach.  It recognises that each person’s body stores memory and the intellectual and emotional responses attached to that memory.  This in turn leads to a physical manifestation of that memory.  Body Harmony works on the principle that your body has a unique pathway to finding the memory and unwinding the attached emotion, allowing your experience to integrate and bringing physical relief and mental peace and space.

 

A Body Harmony practitioner speaks, listens and observes, before applying physical touch to the appropriate area of your body, integrating the emotion of the memory with its physical manifestation.  It is about your body, its interaction with your emotions, how you physically, emotionally and intellectually interact with the world - and influences how the world interacts with you.

 

How we present in the world depends on how we relate to our inner experience and our outer environment.  How we respond to the stimuli from inner and outer and how we choose to act in each moment.  We do choose.  There is a conversation between our inner selves and our outer context.  Body Harmony makes us more aware of the conversation and the choices that are ours to make.

The Art of Body Harmony

Dr. Don McFarland, founder of Body Harmony, created a method of observational learning that enables us to decipher the stories of our bodies from many sources.

 

The Science of Body Harmony

Body Harmony uses a synthesis of breath, gravity, awareness, intention, movement, embodiment and responsive and attentive touch, involving an understanding of quantum physics, epigenetics and neural science.  It is an ever-expanding methodology, evolving constantly through individual experience and in response to ongoing scientific study.

Body Harmony is an active, engaged, co-creative way of belonging in our bodies and fully living our lives from within.

With Body Harmony we experience how our thought processes and feelings form the template we structure our unfolding lives around, from the literal structure of our bodies to the larger structures of our relationships and the things we create in our world.

Our thoughts and intentions send orders to the ‘Synaptic Bar’, the cocktails served up cascade throughout our physical and electromagnetic selves, shifting and changing the way we inhabit our bodies and the world.  Leading edge neuroscience, in fields including neuroplasticity and epigenetics, are just beginning to confirm this.

 

Body Harmony is a journey of exploration; of the physical, mental, emotional, psychological and our energy as an integral part of the world’s energy.
