Classes, Trainings, Ongoing Groups, Private Sessions, & Publications on Mind-Body Healing. The Bodymind Healing Center specializes in using ancient sacred wisdom traditions to help heal the "dis-eases" of modern life. We provide individually oriented psychotherapy and healing sessions as well as referrals to body-mind healers in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The Bodymind Healing Center also provides classes and workshops in bodymind healing and publications on ancient and modern methods for healing the body-mind. We also have trainings and certificate programs for those members of the public and for health professionals who want to bring bodymind healing methods into their lives and work.

In the mid 1980s I, and many health professionals in the field of mind-body health, became uncomfortable with the overemphasis on mental approaches to psychological healing, and the term bodymind (Dychwald, 1986) was born.I wanted to apply this term to psychotherapy and healing, wrote a book about my approach on this perspective called Bodymind Healing Psychotherapy, and created the first bodymindhealing site on the web, called bodymindhealing.com.

When I was in my master's degree program in the early 1970s, as part of my training to become a psychotherapist I learned that psychology began in the laboratory of Wilhelm Wundt in Leipzig, Germany in 1879.
I got the answer to that question right on my final exam along with the "fact" that "psychology" meant "the study of the mind."
However, like so many other psychology students, I sensed that my interest in psychology - this deep-seated territory in the depths of humanity - must have much earlier roots.
Real transformation is possible when you find your connection with your authentic Self.
With my 30 years of psychotherapy experience, I give you leading-edge methods to help you deal with various psychological issues.
Self-healing tools from Eastern and Western traditions can reduce or eliminate medications and empowers your inner healer to deal with your anxiety, depression, chronic pain, insomnia, hypertension, etc.
You'll learn to communicate your feelings more effectively, and find a new stance toward issues in your life.
We are the elements of creation: fire, earth, metal, water and wood.
We are empty space, as modern physics shows us.
Qigong practices initiate us into how to change our life stances by becoming like a tree, or moving like a silk worm reeling silk, transforming our identities into a lightness of Being that can be as colorful as that of a butterfly.
And if current research is accurate, when we shape shift into the appropriate element for the occasion, and return to our primordial selves, natural health is restored and we live younger longer.
Due to the requests of people outside of the San Francisco Bay area, Bodymind Health Coaching has now expanded nationally and internationally by phone, email, Skype, ichat, or in-person.
Drawing from bodymind healing traditions from the East and West I coach you to become your own healer.
Each of our bodily symptoms is a call to learn to read its language.
The awareness of our primordial self is tested with each ache.
Is our body saying that we have a serious problem that is there to teach us to let go of our self-healing arrogance and rely on the advice of a medical professional who can help us to deal with an early warning sign of cancer or liver disease.
