The School of Inner Health

An education in biodynamics

The School of Inner Health is a holistic educational organization focused on professional training in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy and nervous system dynamics. 

Our mission is to train professional holistic practitioners to orient to the forces of inherent health in themselves and their clients using embodied skills of presence and relationship.

Stones that's been stacked together, and a hand that puts the last piece of stone on top to finish and balance the stones together. Just like having a meditation.

Our Teaching Philosophy:

the biodynamic paradigm

Renowned osteopath James Jealous said, “It’s none of my business how the process of healing is occurring. Our business, and our focus, is to create the conditions for healing to occur and to recognize when they have occurred.”

In the School of Inner Health professional practitioner training courses, our students will develop competence, confidence, and accurate perception and learn to create the conditions for healing. By studying Biodynamics in depth, students will learn to:

  • Recognize and orient to our innate state of Health and Primary Respiration

  • Amplify the body’s intelligence and wisdom

  • Palpate and communicate with different physical layers: bone, fluid, tissue, and nerve and how they communicate with each other

  • Gain intimate knowledge of the craniosacral system’s anatomy and physiology

  • Orient to the energetic rhythms moving through our anatomy

  • Drop below the noise of the mind and become more present 

  • Communicate verbally and non-verbally and develop a new, deeper relationship with the life stories held in our bodies

  • Become practitioners who can recognize whether they are encountering their own material or their client’s material

  • Experience transformational personal growth while gaining vocational skills

  • Explore the intersection of current scientific discoveries and ancient healing modalities
