The body is far more intelligent than our conscious minds could ever comprehend.
We, more than most, get a glimpse into that intelligence through our study of BGI. And yet, the magnitude and miraculous depth of the body’s intelligence is so grand it would simply be hubris to claim to completely understand it.
Beautifully, we can trust that the body will show us the information we need to know! This was how Sue discovered and developed BGI. She didn’t sit around and dream up a technique to impose upon the body. She DISCOVERED, learned, and listened to the innate intelligence already alive in the body. As her skills and understanding deepened, so did the depth and complexity of the systems on her table (Observer effect).
This is also true for each of us. We go through the process of learning in BGI, beginning with the posterior geometry, the anterior, the sagittal, and then the coronal. We start off learning the details of these primary planes one subluxation track at a time.
And yet, our discovery takes us deeper. We step into a dance with the body. This dance is much like the one that Sue danced to discover all of the concepts in BGI. We learn to LISTEN (or feel, see, taste/smell, or even know) directly to the body. As we develop our skills of curiosity, presence, and observation from a place of neutrality and no agenda, the information showing up on the table begins to unfold and deepen.
While we start off learning one track at a time, in one plane at a time, we soon discover the myriad of ways the body organizes subluxations is far beyond our previous understanding. The body reveals the many complex and astounding ways it can organize information and reflect upon itself. The BGI concept of fractals is just one example of these reflections. What is small reflects what is big. What is macro reflects the micro. In each and every cell in the body is the entire information to create a whole new person. With the most basic understanding of DNA, we know this. But have you ever stopped to really think about how miraculous this is? It means each cell is so packed with potential information, that it could be possible to affect everything from anywhere in the body.
While we will be exploring this concept in-depth at BGI 4M, you can individually explore it in your hands no matter where you are on the BGI path. Take the knowledge of BGI you already have and listen to the body. Ask clear questions. The system on the table will show you exactly what you need to know from the perspective of the tools already in your toolbelt.
In the BGI Seminars system, we teach in the manner that Sue discovered. And that also means that we teach in the manner the body unfolds! This makes learning more easeful and also benefits the system on the table! So how do you build the skills of listening and deepen your understanding of the concepts in BGI?
Keep coming to seminars so we can assist you in your next steps of the dance of discovery.
Trust in your knowing! Develop your skills to listen to the body and trust what it has to say. This is the path to chiropractic mastery.
Study the concepts in BGI through discussing with our Facebook community or reading something from Sue’s suggested reading list. In the back of the BGI 1 Manual, Sue curated a list of books that supported her along her path of discovery. We have created links to as many of those books/articles as we could find; we are excited to finally have all these resources in one place!
Thank you all for being in the dance with us. We look forward to dancing more with you soon.
