How to Maximize the Healing Power of the Brain
Presented by Maria Lofquist, Bowen Therapist
We are all born with an innate self healing intelligence (IS-HI) designed as the perfect blueprint of who we uniquely are. As we grow and develop, many factors of life can sway us from that perfect design which can often result in discomfort, not just physically but emotionally and mentally too. In "Programmed Perfection" we will explore what the brain is trying to do for us each and every day, how it relates to the rest of the body, the challenges it faces and how you can assist it to bring forth the fullest experience of being you. Food for thought will be served with a smile and an open heart.
 
Maria Lofquist has been a Bowen Therapist operating in the Twin Cities area since 2007. 
 
Bowen Therapy was developed in Australia by the late Tom Bowen during the 1950's, up until his death in 1982. A Bowen treatment consists of a series of "moves" performed through clothing, which activate a healing sequence throughout the body as needed. Tom did not claim to understand why his gentle simplistic moves had this effect, he just knew his work worked. 
 
During the 1990's scientists studied to find out the "why" behind this work. It was determined that this new approach to the body was activating the innate self healing intelligence to heal the body from the inside out. Bowen stands in a unique space in the alternative healing world often creating a deep sense of relief and relaxation allowing the brain's healing power to come forth in it's fullest capacity.
 
During Maria's first experience with Bowen Therapy she knew this was the path she came here to travel on. She is so very honored and pleased to have this opportunity to share with you, the power of the brain, mind and body to heal, with a little help from a friend.
