Luis Diaz - PBR-Pain Body Release. (1 day) 9:00 - 5:00 Price: $125
The cells in which past physical or emotional trauma is stored operate in a survival pattern based on something that is no longer real or current for anyone but the person maintaining the pattern. When an unresolved issue or trauma impedes the flow of energy in the body-mind system, stagnation is created in a particular part of the body, often the organ, joint or muscle most associated with the story. We know further that areas of stagnant energy contain negative e-motional charge (NEC) that literally split and subdivide the human energy field in separate compartments without communication between them. This workshop is an integral tool of The CMR Process. Accessing the stored layers allows us to heal ourselves and awaken our peaceful, connected, real self.

You will learn how to perform the PBR process (Pain Body Release) on yourself and on others. www.cellularmemory.org

Establishing basic brain integration can free up our spirit/soul to express its full potential and we can live a life fully engaged, joyful and fully present to the being that we truly are meant to be. Course Contents: * NSI Protocol * Primary Neurological Switching * Heart-Brain Integration * Neuro Structural Integration * Energetic Systems Balance * Constitutional Essence Format * Cortical Harmonic Integration * NSI Formats * The Soul Journey * Neurology and the Soul - structure and function * Shamanic Practice* Stabilizing the neurology at a fundamental level with acupoints *Chakra Balance

Christopher Beardall, DC – Clinical Kinesiology: Discovering the Blueprint for the Human Body
This lecture will cover the basic key techniques of Clinical Kinesiology. Attendees will learn new hand modes and discover a new blueprint of the human body. Techniques demonstrated will cover basic clinical kinesiology concepts including healing / golden touch concepts. New blueprints of the human body will be revolutionary in the practice of kinesiology.

Debra Hurt Burchard – InnerStar Balancing
This model of the chakra system that will describe two paths of human evolution: creating and relating. Along with that, we’ll look at how certain “landmark” astrological transits can provide powerful boosts of evolutionary energy along both these pathways. This is a new way to look at old problems and the ability to recognize when techniques already known can be applied in a new way.

Donna Colfer – Increase the Money Energy In Your Life
Money is a form of exchange. From a career and business perspective, when we feel cut off or confused about money, we often settle for income or business results that are less than what we really deserve. We might not be leveraging our talents fully. We may also become anxious and unsure of how to maximize the return we get on our investment of life energy. For some of us, this leads to habits of procrastination, while others immerse themselves in overwork.

Mitchell Corwin, DC – Neural Organization Technique
Dr. Carl Ferrari created Neural Organization Technique, a powerful modality for working with physical and emotional trauma. His impact on kinesiology is enormous, and a brief history of his contributions will be presented along with a presentation of his work.

Dawson Church, PhD – The Genie In Your Genes
Epigenetic Medicine is a new form of therapy destined to upend many of the certainties of today's medical and psychological practice. Epigenetics (epi=above, epigenetic=control of genes from above or outside the cell) is a new science less than ten years old. It shows that genes are activated or deactivated by many factors originating outside the cell and even outside the body. These factors include childhood nurturing, belief, spirituality, prayer, visualization, and the quality of our social network. It seems incredible that our cells could be conditioned daily by these epigenetic influences. Yet the most cutting-edge scientific research shows that intention literally affects the conformation of the DNA molecule. Our consciousness is affecting our bodies every day. Large-scale scientific studies have shown that success in resolving emotional trauma can lower our chances of getting cancer, heart disease, hypertension, and diabetes. What we believe and think has an immediate effect on our bodies. In this presentation, Dr. Church will show how we can turn this knowledge to our advantage, engaging powerful epigenetic processes through the quality of our emotions and thoughts, and the nature of our intentions.

Luis Diaz – Pain Happens; Suffering Doesn’t Have To
Cellular Memory Release (CMR) is a system that was inspired by Touch For Health and other modalities. This presentation will initiate professionals to concepts of reality and how we manifest our lives in the present moment. Attendees will be introduced to two “cutting edge” body-mind technologies that effectively work to uncover repetitive, negative patterns stored in the unconscious and transform them through a series of integrative processes.

Larry Green – Kinesiology and Animals
Kinesiology can be used very effectively on all animals. This talk will concentrate on horses, but the principles can be applied to other animals as well. Learn how to muscle test a horse, how to use flower essences on horses and some simple and quick ways to release a horse’s stress.

Tanmayo Lana Lawson – Facial Harmony
The muscles and tissues of your face wear the accumulation of your emotional interaction with your life's experiences. How you feel about what happens in your life, especially the stresses and traumas, are locked into all the muscles and energy systems of your body and show most obviously in the face. Facial Harmony reconnects you with your innate way of being which then becomes a natural expression of your daily life. This natural radiance emanates from inside and shines on your face lighting up your eyes with the quality of what you are experiencing inside.

Peter McLellan – Heart-Brain Integration
Emotional & Spiritual disconnection between the heart & the brain creates a separation between our primary neurology & our soul. Attendees will learn about the neurological cascade between the cortex through the brainstem to the heart. The heart-brain integration recreates the deep connection between neurology & soul.

Sher Smith – Tendon Guard Release
The TGR is an unconscious reflex triggered from the reptilian part of the brain. It is part of the built-in survival mechanisms of the body. To understand the impact on the body I will go thru the progressive systemic impact in the fascia, ligaments, muscles and connective tissue. We will learn the theory plus practical physical application.

Laurajean Stewart – Kyudo (Zen) Archery
Kyudo (Zen Archery) is a moving meditation that, with practice, becomes a metaphor for one's life. Zen Archery is considered the highest body practice that comes out of the Samurai tradition. It requires discipline of the mind, body and spirit. The basic Kyudo form is a means for gathering energy to the heart, then releasing that heart energy with focus and precise intention, with no attachment to the results.

Tom Stone, PhD - An Introduction to the Core Dynamics of Common Problems
There is a powerful correlation between childhood traumas and adult health problems, and such traumas are far more common than had been previously thought. Unfortunately, they don’t tend to self-heal. Core Dynamics of Common Problems provides a set of penetrating insights into the nature of pre-verbal conditioning that are at the basis of people’s apparent inability to self-heal from early traumas.

Holly Stuber – Laughter Yoga
Laughter Yoga was developed by Dr. Madan Kataria and uses simple laughter exercises along with gentle breathing and stretching activities. Laughter Yoga is one more tool to reduce excessive tension and bring balance and fun into our lives.

Steve Woodward – Strengthening Muscle Weakness
Throughout the Kinesiology Muscle techniques there are five very common problems that we find: weakness, hidden weaknesses, reactives, stretch weaknesses, sustained weaknesses. There are tests to find and locate each of these problems. However, to find each of these problems on a person can require dozens or hundreds of tests. The procedure that will be demonstrated finds any of these specific problems quickly and easily. The procedure saves hours of muscle testing, which allows you to get deeper into the goal in a given amount of time. As with any TFH balance, the imbalances that manifest themselves change based on the underlying goal. Specific emotions can easily be added making for even more powerful corrections.
