Bio-Hacking Health Using the Language of Conscious Movement

With Suresha Hill
Hosted by Brian Siddhartha Ingle, ND, DO

Suresha Hill covers the key to slowing down and preventing the build-up of wear and tear, aches or pains in your system.  This is something Tom Hanna referred to as "The Myth of Aging." We'll cover the nature of the body's intelligence, the language it uses to communicate with itself and with you, and how you can sensitize to its vocabulary for greatly enhanced mindfulness, overall health, and well-being. Waking up the brain and the body affords a deepened appreciation of the senses, of life itself.

In This Session:

  • How to use awareness to establish a baseline resting tone as well as a more wakeful connection between you, your body, and your brain through movement and listening
  • How to access the movement of heath in your system through stillness
  • How to discriminate between a variety of sensations that provide feedback to the brain in order to make changes that return the system to balance, as well as how to monitor when and what changes the body has accepted
  • How to mindfully enter into the decision-making process in your system to improve and replace if not prevent injuries, using self-sensing and the inherent self-regulation processes
The views expressed are specific to the author/speaker and may vary from the perspectives of The Shift Network's participants, staff, or other speakers.

Suresha Hill

Owner of Shibui Gardens Spa & Wellness Center & Marin Center for Somatic Educ.

Suresha Hill, EdS, HSE, BCST, DOMTP, earned three degrees in education, school psychology, and the prevention and systems intervention specialty of school psychology before turning to the study of the body. She went on to study energy systems, hypnotherapy, breath therapy, hands-on muscle and emotional release therapies, visceral manipulation, and neuromuscular reeducation approaches, including Hanna Somatic Education. In 1992 she founded the Marin Center for Somatic Education and developed a body of work called NeuroSomatic Integration, followed by the recent adaptation of Whole Body Integration. Still fascinated by how the body communicates and uses information to create change, she studied the cranial system from a mechanical perspective along with the fluid body point of view, and sensitive manual approaches for the brain as well as for the skeleton. In 2013, she earned a diploma in Osteopathic Manipulative Theories and Practices. Her focus continues to be on how tuning into the intelligent responsiveness of the body can create lasting change.

She continues to study the brain, the vascular system, and nervous system, and has contributed four books dedicated to self-sensing, self-regulation, and mindful movement. Having been an athlete, martial artist, and dancer for many years, she also experienced numerous injuries that she was able to get inside of and recover from using the methods learned from her instructors, from working with clients, and from self-sensing, which are described in her Somatic Intelligence Volumes 4, 5, 6, and 7 on the subject. Volume 8 is on the way.
