Allison, Nancy, 1954- R733.I46 1998 615.5—dc21 98-24969 CIP Manufactured in the United States of America About the Editor Nancy Allison, CMA, has always been interested in the role of movement in human society, its inner impulses and outer forms. This interest led her to pursue a career in dance. She performed during her childhood with the National Ballet of Washington, DC, and with Moscow’s world-renowned Bolshoi Ballet during its 1963 American tour. She graduated with honors from Ohio University with a B.F.A. in Dance. While at Ohio University she augmented her study of dance with courses in philosophy and psychology. As a young professional dancer she joined the Theater of the Open Eye in New York City, founded by choreographer Jean Erdman and the late Joseph Campbell. Allison distinguished herself as the leading interpreter of Erdman’s dance repertory from the 1940s and 1950s, producing the three-volume video archive Dance and Myth: The World of Jean Erdman. Inspired by both Erdman and Campbell, Allison expanded her exploration of movement to include the body-mind relationship. She has studied hatha yoga, t’ai chi ch’üan, the Pilates Method, bioenergetics, authentic movement, and Laban move- ment analysis, in which she earned a degree as a certified movement analyst. A much sought after teacher, Allison has taught master classes and workshops throughout the United States. She currently resides in New York, where she teaches at the School of Education of New York University. Acknowledgments So many people have helped create this volume that it is probably impossible to name them all, but given this opportunity, I would like to try. I feel deeply indebted to Joseph Campbell, whose personal encouragement guided my early explorations into the world of body-mind and whose spirit and knowledge are a constant well- spring of inspiration to me. I also want to thank my husband, who believed in my ability to complete this project and nurtured both it and me with his constant love and support. I am eternally grateful to all of the distinguished teachers, healers, and writers who contributed entries to this volume. Their dedication to their respective fields and their generous gifts of time and knowledge to this project have earned my undying respect and admiration. I believe they are, each in their own wonderfully unique way, helping to make this world a better place. Certain writers and consultants have been particularly influential in my own development, and I want to acknowledge their gifts to me: T’ai chi master Sophia Delza, who passed away during the course of our work, taught me to follow the flow of the life force in its endless cycle from full to empty and back to full again; Ed Groff; Janet Hamburg; Clio Pavlantos and Jackie Hand, who taught me to recognize the endless permutations of that force through the language of Laban movement analysis; Nina Robinson, who introduced me to the thrill of liberating that force through bioenergetics; Lillo (Leela) Way, who taught me the true nature of a spir- itual practice; Jane Magee and Jackie Hand, whose healing hands managed to untangle the knots into which I seem to want to endlessly entangle my body; and Dr. v Domenick Masiello, whose healing artistry has restored me and so many of my loved ones to a vibrant state of health. I am also indebted to Dr. Masiello for the many fine contributing writers he recommended to this project. In that regard I am also deeply indebted to Thomas Claire and Ken Frey. There are also those who, while not contributing writers, were important to my abil- ity to realize this project: Clifford Schulman, Jeff McMahon, Anne Johnson, Joanna Kosartes Vergoth, and Cynthia Reynolds, all of whom recommended contributing writ- ers to the project; Romana Kryzanowska, who gave me my first teaching job in the body- mind arena at the Pilates Studio; Carol Walker and Steven Giordano, who encouraged me to expand and explore that skill and knowledge at SUNY Purchase; Miriam Roskin Berger, who has supported so many of my creative endeavors and gave me the opportu- nity to develop my teaching at New York University, and all of my students over the years who continually show me through their amazing transformations that my approach to this material is valuable and life-enhancing. Finally, I would like to thank the staff at the Rosen Publishing Group, all of whom were extraordinarily helpful and supportive; especially Christine Slovey, who worked long and diligently to uphold cohesive reference standards while allowing each individ- ual voice to be heard; Michael Isaac and Margaret Haerens, who each offered their own perspective and editing skills; Kim Sonsky, whose artistic talents created the cover design; Vera Amadzadeh, whose tireless photo research efforts brought such vivid visu- al expression to the ideas contained in the writing; and Olga Vega, whose layout and design expertise give such visual clarity and accessibility to the volume. With such a huge task, spanning so many years, I'm sure there are others I have missed. Please forgive me and know that you have my deepest respect and gratitude. —Nancy Allison, CMA, Editor vi Contributors Acupressure, Process Acupressure technique.

This means that mindfully selected music can help to clear out your emotional mind and cleanse the body of negative emotions. Sound vibrations are also seasonal.

In this workshop, experience the power of meditation with specially composed 5 Element Music for Qigong. The music and meditation techniques will help you maintain a seated mindfulness practice all year, tailored to address the emotional challenges of the seasons. No prior meditation experience is needed. Come experience the tangible flow of Qi through group meditation and 5 Element Qigong music!

According to acupuncture theory, these acupuncture points lie along meridians along which qi, a kind of vital energy, is said to flow. There is no generally-accepted anatomical or histological basis for these concepts, and modern acupuncturists tend to view them in functional rather than structural terms, (as a useful metaphor in guiding evaluation and care of patients). Acupuncture is thought to have originated in China and is most commonly associated with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Different types of acupuncture (Classical Chinese, Japanese acupuncture) are practiced and taught throughout the world. Bowen Technique The Bowen Technique is one version of a group of technical interpretations of the work of Australian osteopath Tom Bowen (1916–1982) known as Bowen Therapy, which is a holistic system of healing.

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.

  • Esogetic Colorpuncturetm
    INTRODUCING Esogetic ColorpunctureTM A POWERFUL SYSTEM OF ACU-LIGHT THERAPY FOR THE BODY AND MIND 2 DAY WORKSHOP - 14 CEU credits WITH KAY VOGEL, CCP, SEP JUNE 30 - JULY 1, 2012 • HOUSTON, TX WHAT IS ESOGETIC COLORPUNCTURE? Esogetic Colorpuncture is an advanced healing technology, in which gentle, non-invasive vibrations of colored light are ap- plied to the body via acu-points on the skin. It was developed by a well-known German naturopath named Peter Mandel. This system combines ancient esoteric or spiritual healing principles with the energetic wisdom and concepts of Chinese Medicine, as well as modern light biophysics. Esogetic Colorpuncture particu- larly emphasizes treatment of the psycho-spir- itual roots of pain and illness. These treatments gently unlock and release emotional trauma and blocked information in the unconscious that contribute to ill health. This 2-day workshop offers an in-depth introduction to the theories of Esogetic Colorpuncture. You will also learn several light treatments that you can begin experimenting with in your practice or using for self healing. There will be opportunities for hands-on practice and personal experience of these light therapies. PLEASE NOTE: This introduction is the first step for those interested in taking the Esogetic Colorpuncture Basic Practitioner Certification Course starting in Houston, TX in September, 2012. ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR: Kay Vogel is Houstonʼs most experienced Esogetic Colorpuncture practitioner and has an international diploma in Esogetic Medicine.

  • Brochure for Disc of the Elements
    PETER MANDEL DISC OF THE ELEMENTS This brochure was prepared with the greatest possible diligence to provide accurate information. Many of our therapeutic protocols and their effects are exclusively based on the empirical knowledge of naturopathic medicine. Medical diagnosis and treatment progression, in particular the methods of treatment and their effects, are extremely individual and variable. Hence the success of a treatment cannot be foreseen or guaranteed. Thus we are taking the precaution to point out that we are using the conditional tense in the pre- sentation of our content to underline that point. The word “can” therefore hints at a mere possibility, in the sense of an assumption or conjecture, yet its existence is uncertain and can be paraphrased by the words “perhaps” or “potentially”. On that score we advise you to not take these terms as a promise of cure, as far as a possible treatment success or the appropriateness of a ther- apy are concerned. Always keep in mind: Certain diseases and complaints are less or not at all suited for self-treatment. We explicitly want to emphasize that before any self- treatment with our products, especially at home, a consultation with a physi- cian or naturopath is advisable. The author and publisher of the brochure are in no way liable for damages or consequences that result from the application of this brochure.
