My other Alias, is I am a writer, and have published one novel called, Flicker: Light of a Lantern, under my pen name, U.B. Light, and my second novel, A Whale's Way Within should be out this August. That to say, I enjoy storytelling. Story stays with us, and in this work, it can remind of our rituals in making a good contact. Story stays within tissues too, and whatever holding, has some story to be told with it. Part 1 is more geared to my U.B. Light name, part 2 toward Craniosacral. I hope you enjoy both.

If you have taken C3 with the Milne institute, we practice a protocol knows as windows to the sky protocol, 11 acupuncture points to help give perspective, clarity and movement when BLIPS have happened or sought: a behavior, loss, insight, pattern or symptom, and we may say, well that describes everything. However, there is a feeling I find useful with Windows to the Sky, when the person describes actively seeking a version of themselves they know exist but have not yet met. This video is a wonderful demonstation of that. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSgqPlHEiF2/?igsh=N3kzN2Z0MDJjOG4=

We may describe the craniosacral rhythm via cranial wave, fluidtide and longitude, a slowing of rhthym accompanied by depth of conciousness. Cranial wave is described as 4 to 14 cycles per minute. Some say this is an abnormal adoptogenic speed to the pace of modern life, and we are truly meant to live in . . . Fluidtide, under 3.5 cycles per minute where our senses find attunemnet to perception to see the fabric of things And long tide, a 100 second cycle of deep quietude and restoration. Coming into session, there is the semblance of an angreement, of patient and practitioner, two people, or two souls, willing to explore the space of quietude. Our cranial rhythm slows with this intentionality, and we enter fluid tide, where channels of perception of inner listening are much more attuned, and perhaps, we even approach, or fall into the longtide, where ideas of flexion and extension, of finding the lesion, of pulls and patterns disappear, and even the sense of us and them disappears, and even our sense of self. In longtide, there is a suspension of the ego. The "I" falls away. There is only the work. These sessions take upon a form of transformation that may change the trajectory of a person's life. I personally find if we can say, I'm in long tide, then I am not. It's much easier to touch when a group of people come together, as in Bali, a willingness to enter the quietude.

. . . Because their teammate loved them too much. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DV5eFaxkhZG/?igsh=MWNjNTJzNjZ6ajd0cA==
