What's New At The Center for Human Integration?

          We are in the process of recreating our website to include Dr. Parker's latest development: The Embodied Mindfulness Method^TM. This method is the culmination of Dr. Parker's work over the past 30 years. As a result, the upcoming workshop that has been posted here is temporarily on hold.

          Dr. Parker is instead committing her time to creating new literature and audio CD's on the Embodied Mindfulness Method^TM. If you wish to be put on a mailing list for updates on the development of the Embodied Mindfulness Method^TM, please e-mail mchipress@integrationforall.com, and put "Mailing List for EMM" in the subject line.

The method involves:

• Using mindfulness and movement to expand one's self-image.
   
• Using mindfulness to transform habitual and unskillful coping mechanisms into spontaneous and skillful responsivity.
   
• Using mindfulness to transform habitual reactions to stress into organic self-regulation and resilience.
   
• Building one's capacity for tolerating strong feeling states (both "pleasant" and "unpleasant").

This method can be used to:

• Increase your sense of freedom and choice.
   
• Eliminate roadblocks to spontaneous self-expression.
   
• Eliminate roadblocks that keep you from experiencing a greater sense of connection to yourself and to others.

This method can also be used to reduce and, in many cases, eliminate the symptoms of:

• Chronic pain conditions.
   
• Anxiety and depressive disorders.
   
• Chronic fatigue conditions.
   
• Obsessive and compulsive disorders.
   
• A dysregulated Autonomic Nervous System.
   
• Stress-related syndromes (such as autoimmune conditions, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, migraines, and the like).

          The Embodied Mindfulness Method^TM does not involve learning some "quick fix" techniques to calm yourself down so that you can work a little bit harder and get a little more done. Dr. Parker is far more interested in helping you transform the way that you relate to your body, to your life, to the stressors in your life, and to your overall health (mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually). You may get more done with less effort. But that is merely a welcomed by-product.

          The following spontaneous (i.e., unsolicited) communication from one of Dr. Parker's Embodied Mindfulness students sums up the powerful potential of this method.

          "I cannot begin to put words to how much your guidance, encouragement, and support have improved my life. The depths of sensation and pure enjoyment of life I have been able to attain as a result of the work we have done together is indescribable. Thank you for opening my eyes to a quality of life which I didn't know existed."
