Body consciousness was a course created by Bodhi specifically for the massage students at the PBSC, (Palm Beach State College).
It is an adaptation/change from the traditional Body Mechanics course taught at traditional Massage schools throughout the country. It is a switch from the concept of mechanics, to one of Consciousness of the physical body.
The way we work with our bodies, we breath, our posture etc, are in itself meditative “techniques” to help us to achieve a state of attention and mindfulness in our work as Bodywork therapists and our lives in general.
And in our trade, it is even more necessary due to the use of our physical bodies, to work with other people’s bodies.
It is in certain way embebed within the Thai Massage course.
The course is based on:
- Thai Chi postures
- breathing
- and other self awareness techniques.
