I woke early and watched an old video of Franklyn Sills, founder of Craniosacral Biodynamics, state that this modality is “grounded in the perception of the forces at work in the human system” and that we “work with the field, in direct relationship.”

That is what Biodynamic Meditation is about: cultivating awareness and harmony within our personal fields that influence the larger fields we exist in: our relational fields and the other fields we inhabit and move through, including our planetary field and beyond.

In one of my previous n=1 investigations of well-being, I explored HeartMath, using a sensor when I meditated to measure my heart rate variability and coherence.

Coherence is defined as the quality of forming a unified whole. HeartMath uses an algorithm based on heart rate variability to measure coherence. And…you can feel it.

I got out my dusty HeartMath sensor this morning and clipped it to my earlobe, started a HeartMath session with sounds and vibrations off..

I wanted to get some biofeedback about coherence during Biodynamic Meditation.

Results: Over the 40-minute session, I was in high coherence 84 percent of the time.

It certainly indicates that practicing Biodynamic Meditation increases coherence.

Wondering what it feels like? It feels like softening and expanding and melting and radiating.

Oh, today’s my birthday! I gave myself a print of the image below, which I love, by Scottish artist Luci Campbell (www.lupiart.com).

Somehow, as soon as I saw it online, I knew: this girl is me.
