Craniosacral Biodynamics is an approach to work in the cranial field which has its roots in the later work or Dr. William Garner Sutherland, the founder of the the cranial approach. These two volumes are geared to be text books for students and practitioners which outline a particular biodynamic outlook within the cranial field. The work within these volumes is different from most foundation course books currently available. Dr. Sutherland emphasised that the human system is not just a mechanism, but is ordered by the deepest spiritual sources. He called the Creative Intelligence in action within the universe, the Breath of Life. It is this Breath of Life which is the focus for a clinical understanding, even if we only perceive the forces it generates. This book focuses on the Breath of Life as the ordering and organising principle, not just of the human system, but within the world at large.
Craniosacral Biodynamics is an energy medicine which attempts to align us to the deepest wellspring of life. It takes a biodynamic approach in that the intentions are to clarify our relationship to the Breath of Life and its ordering processes, and to function clinically as a servant to the healing processes it unfolds. Our work is clearly seen to be one of supporting these intentions, we do not "do" the healing, we listen to and support its unfoldment. This work strongly de-emphasised the CRI level of action.
This book, and the course we teach at the Karuna Institute, focuses much more on the deeper tidal rhythms within the human system. These are called the mid-tide and Long Tide. It is within these slower and deeper rhythms that the resources of the system are found and within which our unresolved experience, be it traumatic or pathological, is centered. Our focus is squarely on the action of what Dr. Sutherland called the potency of the Breath of Life as it unfolds within our human condition.
