Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen – Embodied Anatomy and the Fluid System

The fluids of the body underlie presence and transformation, set the ground for basic communication, and mediate the dynamics of flow between rest and activity. Each fluid relates to a different quality of movement, touch, voice, and state of mind. These relationships can be approached from the aspects of movement, consciousness, and from anatomical and physiological functioning.

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

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

It includes sections on: cellular fluid, transitional fluid, extracellular fluid; fluid – membrane balance; blood; cerebrospinal fluid (CSF); synovial fluid; periorgan fluid; lymph; interstitial and cellular fluids; bone marrow; exploring the immune system through the fluids; fascia; fat; and ground fluid.
