    CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR Legacy Business Registry Staff Report HEARING DATE FEBRUARY 26, 2018 THE MINDFUL BODY Application No.: LBR-2017-18-028 Business Name: The Mindful Body Business Address: 2876 California Street District: District 2 Applicant: Maile Sivert, Owner Nomination Date: December 8, 2017 Nominated By: Supervisor Mark Farrell Staff Contact: Richard Kurylo [email protected] BUSINESS DESCRIPTION The Mindful Body is a wellness business that opened in April 1994. The business is still at its original location in the Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood. It started out with various movement classes and offerings coined “Personal Inner Work” that were workshops and classes that were reflective, internal and meditative. The goal of the business was to be a “mini Esalen” in San Francisco – inspired by the Big Sur healing resort – a place of refuge; an urban sanctuary; a place where you could find meaningful community; a place that is kind and welcoming. The Mindful Body was a bit ahead of its time, offering yoga before it became mainstream and found in every neighborhood. Yoga was established on the West Coast in 1955 with Walt and Magaña Baptisteʹs studio in San Francisco, Yoga Philosophic Health Center. Waltʹs father had been influenced by Vivekananda, and Walt and Magaña were students of Yogananda. By the 1970s, yoga was growing in popularity in California but did not yet have designated centers. It was mainly offered in living rooms and rented spaces. Integral Yoga Institute (1970) and the Iyengar Yoga Institute (1974) were two early yoga studios in San Francisco.

Rosen Method Bodywork (RMB) is a complementary approach with a small, but growing body of evidence. The purpose of this research study was to explore the processes of Rosen Method Bodywork to develop a theoretical framework about what occurs over the course of receiving sessions RMB, both within the recipient and between the recipient and the practitioner. In this grounded theory study, data from interviews of twenty participants was analyzed and a theoretical model of the overall process of RMB was constructed. The model consists of the five integrative phases through which these participants moved within the iterative RMB process from Feeling Stuck and Disconnected to Feeling Connected. Mindfulness is observed to be a central component of the RMB process which participants describe as helpful for trauma recovery.

  • Holistic Modalities
    HOLISTIC MODALITIES Acupressure Based on the same system as acupuncture, but fingers and hands are used, instead of stimulation with needles, to restore the balanced flow of the body’s life energy (qi or chi, pronounced “chee”). This force moves through the body along 12 energy pathways or meridians, which practitioners unblock and strengthen. Common styles of acupressure include Jin Shin, which gently holds at least two points at once for a minute or more, and Shiatsu, which applies firm pressure to each point for three to five seconds. Acupuncture An ancient Chinese technique that stimulates the body’s ability to sustain and balance itself, based on the theory that an electromagnetic life-force (qi or chi, pronounced “chee” is channeled in a continuous flow throughout the body via a network of meridians. Disease is understood as an imbalance in the meridian system. Diagnosis of an imbalance is made by “reading” the pulse, face, tongue and body energy. To correct it, a practitioner inserts acupuncture needles at specific points along the meridians to stimulate or disperse the flow of life-force. Acupuncture principles include the yin and yang polarities and the associations of the five elements of fire, earth, metal, water and wood with bodily organs. Air Purification: The process of reducing contaminants in the air. Alexander Technique A system of reeducating the body and mind to support and facilitate proper posture and ease of movement. Through gentle manual guidance, accompanied by verbal directions, the Alexander teacher coaches the student to become aware of unnecessary tension and to unlearn longstanding patterns of movement.
