Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen – Embodied Anatomy and the Nervous System

Experience first occurs on the cellular level. The nervous system records the experience and organizes it into patterns. It can then call forth the experience and modify the pattern by integrating it with the patterns of other experiences. The nervous system is the last to know, but once knowing, becomes a primary controlling system of the body.

This video presents key Body-Mind Centering® principles that bring ease, flexibility, and strength by embodying the nervous system through movement and consciousness.

These principles can be applied to yoga, dance, bodywork, somatic psychology, and other somatic movement practices.

Embodying the nervous system with sections on: the somatic nervous system; the autonomic nervous system; sitting in the synapse, nerve reversal and healing; front, middle, and back bodies; releasing the brachial plexus and lumbosacral plexes; and embryology of the nervous system.
