This video presents unique and effective Body-Mind Centering® principles for working with the breath. Your state of being is manifested through your breathing. Bringing kinesthetic awareness to the structures of your breathing allows you to better embody, articulate and balance them. This process opens pathways of expression between your unconscious and conscious mind and between yourself and others.

Material covers:
• Gaining awareness of your own breathing and
facilitating repatterning in others
• Releasing holding patterns in the lobes of your lungs 
• Engaging your pelvic, thoracic, vocal, oral and cranial diaphragms
and other structures 
• Journeying through somatizations of the diaphragms
• Exploring diaphragmatic, cellular and embryonic breathing
• Remembering your embryological development as it relates to
breathing
• Recognizing the psychophysical aspects of breathing
and vocalization

These principles can be applied to any discipline that makes use of breath, voice and body: yoga, dance, bodywork, body-psychotherapy and other somatic movement practices.

The Body-Mind Centering® approach to Embodied Anatomy is a deep, internal study of the body in which movement and consciousness are explored through the direct experience of our own body systems, tissues and cells. The principles of Embodied Anatomy can be applied to any type of movement, bodywork, therapy or other body-mind discipline. Shot at workshops with Bonnie, these DVDs are a great way to immerse yourself in an aspect of Bonnie's work and get a new perspective on movement, the body and the mind.
