Online SOBI Sponsored Study Groups
The Society of Ortho-Bionomy International sponsors monthly Online Study Groups. They are primarily in a conference call format and are taught by various Registered Ortho-Bionomy Instructors via Zoom.
Our Study Groups cover a variety of topics and also count towards the study group requirements in the Practitioner and Advanced Practitioner Training Programs.
The receipt received upon registration will have a link to download the handout, any preview materials and the Zoom link. Be sure you have these materials available before you login to the study group.
There is a limit to class size, so be sure to register early.
After a group finishes, all attendees will be emailed an evaluation form for that session. To receive study group credit attendees will need to keep their cameras on during the study group, and to fill out and submit the evaluation form within two weeks of the study group having happened.
The Study Groups are a full three hours, with no credit given for homework time.
Out of respect for the Instructor and the other students please be on time for the study group.
Embodying the Endocrine System
with SOBI Advanced Instructor Jessica Mark
March 21, 2024
5:00 PM Eastern, 4:00 PM Central, 3:00 PM Mountain, 2:00 PM Pacific (US and Canada)
Three-hour online study group
SOBI Member $45; Non-Member $55
One of the wonders of the endocrine system is its ability to support clarity and alignment of the body’s structure when the structure itself might contain disorganization. This system is also adept at increasing flow in the energy centers of the spine and bringing a sense of connection to the groundedness of earth and the spaciousness of the cosmos.
This study will also count for NCBTMB credit.
In this study group, we will:
- Locate and palpate each gland or endocrine body.
- Explore each of the 15 glands/organs locations, qualities, associated body structures, and what areas they support.
- Utilize awareness, touch, and gentle movement to build curiosity in how the communication through the endocrine system relates to other body systems and structures.
- Develop a sense of how enlivening endocrine glands may facilitate connection to universal wisdom.
- Notice the quality of tone or vibration of each gland.
