What is Holistic Pulsing?
|
|||
|
Holistic
Pulsing is an extremely gentle form of bodywork which
has been developed over the past 20 years by Israeli-born Osteopath
and Naturopath,
During a Holistic Pulsing session the body is gently rocked by the practitioner at rhythms close to the foetal heartbeat (120-160 beats per minute). This is significant in providing a nurturing and safe, womblike environment, in which the nervous system can relax into the ongoing soothing movement. Blockages are naturally detected by both giver and receiver, and are addressed without trauma. Our body is approximately 80% water |

Tovi Browning and the Development of Holistic Pulsing Originally from
Israel, Tovi Browning ND, DO studied Naturopathy, Osteopathy and
Cranial Osteopathy in London in the 1980's. Her personal journey
of self-exploration also led her to experiencing a range of other
healing modalities and the various body-mind studies that were being
born at that time. These techniques which influenced the development
of Holistic Pulsing included: Seeds from all of these modalities, along with Tovi's life experiences and her continued personal exploration, over time all went towards the development of Holistic Pulsing into a complete system for healing, awareness and personal exploration. Tovi also fell in love with the ancient art form of Egyptian Dance. She studied this and found that it came very naturally to her, and the flowing rhythmic movements also had a strong impact on the development of Holistic Pulsing. As one observes a Holistic Pulsing practitioner, it becomes clear that they are not only rocking the person on the table, but their whole body is involved in the same rocking motions as if they are dancing effortlessly around the person who is being rocked. Effortlessness became an important aspect of Holistic Pulsing as Tovi discovered that this was intrinsic to the approach being non-invasive and gentle, bringing the experience through the work of warmth, safety and deep loving nurturance. She was also fascinated by what makes a modality truly holistic. She wanted to create a system where the practitioner was not left outside of the healing process, but where both "pulser" and "pulsee" are both being treated, where a figure 8, sustainable flow of giving and receiving could take place. From the UK, Tovi moved to NZ and there wrote the book "Gentle Miracles - the handbook of Holistic Pulsing". The current and third edition is called "The Power of Softness". There she continued the development of Holistic Pulsing and started to train practitioners and teachers. Tovi then came to Australia in the early 1990's and continued to practice and train practitioners and a small group of teachers to continue the teaching of Holistic Pulsing in Australia some six years later when she moved back to the Northern Hemisphere. The Australian School of Holistic Pulsing was formed as a central teaching body of Holistic Pulsing in Australia by those teachers who were trained by Tovi. The ASHP website can be found at www.holisticpulsing.com.au Tovi now resides in her home country of Israel, where she continues to practice, teach and develop Holistic Pulsing.
