CORE PROCESS CRANIOSACRAL with Howard Evans
Core process craniosacral integrates skills from craniosacral biodynamics and core process psychotherapy, offering an approach to craniosacral therapy more akin to body oriented psychotherapy than osteopathy. In core process craniosacral, biodynamic is understood from the post-Reichian perspective of Gerda Boyeson, rather than the embryological theory of Erich Blechsmidt favoured by osteopaths. Core process craniosacral acknowledges the client’s core self and the way in which the self creates a physical body with its musculature, tensions, postures and attitudes to protect and nurture the itself. Core process craniosacral aims to establish a safe relationship with the client and invite change from within rather than imposing from outside. In this, the work is more akin to psychotherapy than osteopathy and the work is client led rather than assessing and resolving. The relationship is directly with the life force of the client.
Module 1 Listening, Zagreb, April 3rd-6th, 2025
This is the principal module in this series and the prerequisite for further study. The module is taught as if it is all you’ll ever need. The skills learned can be integrated into existing therapy practice or used alone. The module can be repeated because it is constantly adapting and developing in the light of experience and in response to participants. It’s also presented as a way to rest and resource as much as to learn.
Early bird price is 450 Euros, deposit 200 E ( February 28th), after that date the price will be 550 Euros.
Module 2 Living your dying, Zagreb, Autumn 2025
“Becoming aware of how you handle turning points is experiencing yourself, is discovering how you live with a little dying. Living your dying is learning about the transformation arising from your turning points.” Stanley Keleman
During this workshop we will explore our own processes of letting go and beginning again and look at various approaches to little death and big death. We will also learn the craniosacral skills to work with people coming to the end of life.
Module 3 The rivers of life, Zagreb, Spring 2026
Andre Taylor Still, the founder of osteopathy, always reminded his students, “to remove with gentleness all perceived mechanical obstructions to the free-flowing rivers of life (blood, lymph, and cerebrospinal fluid). Nature would then do the rest.”
In this module we will learn to apply the subtle listening skills learned in Module 1, bringing a gentle touch to bones, membranes, sinuses and the rivers of life. The module teaches a stand alone protocol as well as techniques to integrate into other modes of therapeutic practice.
Module 4 From Trauma to love, Zagreb, Autumn 2026
Core process craniosacral is a form of bodywork, freed from the complexity and ambitions of its osteopathic origins, and guided by the psychotherapeutic appreciation of the therapeutic relationship as the key to healing.
It is said that the quickest was to recover from trauma is slowly. Core process craniosacral is the embodiment of slow, in that the pace of the treatment is set by the patient and is free from any expectation or ambition on the part of the therapist.
In core process craniosacral, we refer to resilience as potency, an intelligent expression of our life force, constantly responding to internal and external challenges. Traumatisation occurs when potency is overwhelmed. In this workshop, we will learn to engage directly with individual potency and work to develop a sense of individual and collective resilience using concepts and techniques of craniosacral biodynamics.
