East coast: Intro to CFD (Cranial Fluid Dynamics™)
with Sheila Cronin MS LMT and Margaret Smith OTR/L
June 27-28 Hartford, CT
This is a two day workshop in the ontological process known as InnerDialogue™ in the approach known as Cranial Fluid Dynamics.
This work has emerged out of osteopathy in the cranial field, and a similar historical tie to the popular Craniosacral therapy (CST). The work involves the palpation of the fluid rhythms within the body, but without the injunction of the therapist to instigate or initiate any still-point or momentum nor force. The essence of the work is to have a dialogue with the client - using both kinesiology, a neurokinetic feedbak mechanism and ahand modes (mudras) which act as a language enabling the practitioner to gather and allow to emerge a story of the elements that bind, alter and thwart the internal balance, flow and movement of the fluid systems within the body.
Participants will be taught the basis of a sophisticated non verbal dialogue approach to help reveal hidden un-dynamic tissue, that hold a charge or force that stop, hinder or alter the cranial rhythm within the body; enabling a resumption of wellbeing, health and resolution of illnesses and dysfunction.
This is a prelude for the Cranial Fluid Dynamic 4-part series which will start in November

The Life Forces and the model of emergent health
a talk by
Jennifer Buys L.Ac LMT
Friday, May 29th, 7:30-9:30 PM, 2009
3311 NW Polk Avenue
Corvallis, OR
$5 at the door to cover costs
Jennifer Buys has been practicing as an acupuncturist and massage therapist in Portland and Corvallis for 13 years. One of the modalities she practices is a form of work known as InnerDialogue, which is the work of Solihin Thom, D.O. (UK). In the scope of her practice Jennifer incorporates this ontological approach, and has thoroughly immersed herself in its spiritual roots and its application in the realm of Chinese Medicine and Cranial Fluid Dynamics. She will speak about her understanding of the common blueprint that we humans share, and will merge it with a dynamic presentation of the various elements, known as the Life Forces, that can either support us in our journey toward wholeness and coming alive or take us off track.
Please join Jennifer for an exciting, informative, and potentially transformational evening.
If you have questions or need more information, please call Jennifer Buys, L.Ac., L.M.T., at (541) 231 - 5282 .

Qi – in a rhythm intro™
a 1 day introduction
to the flow and maintenance of Qi
Jennifer Buys L.Ac
June 20 2009
Portland, OR
$85
This is a 1 day workshop in the ontological process known as InnerDialogue™ It is intended for those who are new to the paradigm of qi and its dynamic, but also those who are interested to taste the work first hand, to gauge whether it will meet their needs.
Qi – in a rhythm™ is a unique synthesis of east meets west. This is an extraordinary new approach using a sophisticated neurokinetic feedback protocol (muscle testing) with a gesture driven language – hand modes, or mudras – called InnerDialogue™. This system will facilitate the return to a vibrant and vital state by understanding the forces and elements, both internal and external, which have contributed to their dysfunction. The work elegantly helps you to hear the client's story and brings forth their own display of points to facilitate deep and profound changes in the organism using the meridian systems. This ontological approach allows for a far deeper understanding of the complex inter-relationships of the human being and the natural flow of energy within the body and also, as reflected in the model of Chinese Medicine, in the natural world, the ancestors, and the heavens.
The introduction heralds a 3 part series.
Part 1: 2-day – July 18-19
Part 2: 4-day – September 24-27
Part 3 4-day – December 3-6

Qi – in a rhythm™
part 1 of 3: a 2-day workshop
the territory, shape and movement of Qi
(for beginners)
Jennifer Buys L.Ac LMT
Jul 18-19 Portland, OR
$225 ($285 less than 30 days)
This is a two day workshop in the ontological process known as InnerDialogue™ and is designed for both absolute beginners in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) as well as practitioners. This amplifies and weaves together an introduction to the concepts of Chinese Medicine as integrated with the model of the Life Forces and augmented by the dialogue system provided by both kinesiology and hand modes (mudras).This kinesiological neurokinetic protocol uses the protolanguage of mudras, enabling precise access to meridians on display, the points that are in dysfunction, and the dialogue or reasons behind it. This workshop will prepare the person for the following two modules which will go much deeper into the work.
Participants will be taught the basis of a sophisticated non verbal dialogue approach to help reveal hidden patterns of dysfunction in the flow and rhythm of Qi. Using mudras / hand modes as a sophisticated protolanguage, participants will be able to engage in a dialogue with the whole system to ascertain the key elements which restrict the harmony and balance of the animating energy known as Qi, and further, to illustrate the display (of specific meridian points) on the client's body which will augment internal change, resumption of a harmonious flow, and improved well being.
The introduction heralds the next two 4 day workshops:
Part 2: 4-day – September 24-27
Part 3 4-day – December 3-6

Qi – in a rhythm™
part 2 of 3: a four day workshop on
the flow and maintence of Qi
Jennifer Buys L.Ac LMT
September 24-27 Portland, OR
$550 ($650 less than 30 days) Student discount $350
This is a four day workshop in the ontological process known as InnerDialogue™
This four day workshop will expand upon the foundations laid in Module One, weaving together expanded core concepts of Chinese Medicine with a much broader palette of hand modes, thereby providing a deep and wide (root and branch) understanding of the factors that influence the flow, balance, and maintenance of Qi. Use of this sophisticated protolanguage will enable precise access to meridians on display, the points that are in dysfunction, and the dialogue or reasons behind it. This in turn will facilitate deep internal change, resumption of a harmonious flow, and improved well being. This workshop will prepare the person for the final module, which will delve into the quintessential elements of archetypes involved in the dynamic of Qi.

The archetypal displays of Qi
Jennifer Buys L.Ac
December 3-6 Portland, OR
$550 ($650 less than 30 days) Student discount $350
This is a four day workshop in the ontological process known as InnerDialogue™
The third in this series allows for a far greater understanding of the quintessential elements of archetypes involved in the dynamic of qi. Jennifer will introduce new mudras which will help explore within the process of InnerDialogue to elicit a far deeper understanding as to the core issues, patterns of disharmony or developmental growth that the person needs or is going through. Also she will present modes which pull up specific displays on the body further augmenting processes that facilitate real, deep and significant change within the organism.
Participants will be taught the basis of a sophisticated non verbal dialogue approach to help reveal hidden un-dynamic patterns of dysfunction in the flow and rhythm of Qi. Using mudras / hand modes as a sophisticated protolanguage, participants will be able to engage in a dialogue with the body to ascertain the key elements which restrict the harmony and balance of the animating energy known as Qi, and further, to illustrate the display (of specific meridian points) on the client's body which will augment internal change, resumption of a harmonious flow, and improved well being.

InnerDialogue™
introduction to an ontological approach to
emergent health
with Kelly Le Fave
date tba Portland, OR
This is an introductory lecture and audience participation in the ontological process known as InnerDialogue™
Participants will be introduced to the basis of a sophisticated non verbal dialogue approach to well being, and emergent health. The talk will center on the ‘what it is’ and underlying philosophy, the modeling applied and the protocol used to help dialogue with another human being. The process is similar to the above workshops except that Kelly will illustrate the practical and precise nature of the work, and help illustrate it with demonstrations; helping to place an overview and help differentiate the aspects of the work. Participants will go away with a deeper understanding of their own natures, the elements that can both support and thwart us, and the concept of InnerDialogue as a means to elicit a deep, personal and precise understanding of the forces that create disorganization and the resources inherent in them to promote well being and health.
