This talk excerpt presents Integral Orthopaedics as a holistic treatment approach that views pelvic torsion as an expression of a disorder of the autonomic nervous system. Integral orthopedics combine manual medicine, acupuncture and neural therapy and present integration techniques to treat stress reactions and their physical effects. Central elements are the integration of the nervous system, connective tissue and psyche, the release of stress blockages through navel, scar and aura integration and the activation of the body’s self-healing powers, with the navel being emphasized as a central connection point. The aim is to restore vegetative balance, relieve pain and promote body awareness and resilience.
Stress and Vagus
We examine the effects of stress on the body and mind, with a particular focus on the autonomic nervous system, especially the vagus nerve, and the fascial system. We describe how chronic stress can disrupt the body’s ability to regulate between tension and relaxation, leading to a variety of physical and psychological complaints. We also discuss causes of stress, both internal and external, as well as methods of coping with stress and restoring inner balance. We emphasize the importance of the body’s self-healing powers and how these can be activated through the techniques of Integral orthopedics and conscious mindfulness.
The magic of fascia and their matrix
The podcast describes fascia as a complex network in the body that wraps and connects muscles, organs and nerves, and emphasizes its role beyond its purely mechanical function. It is argued that fascia serves as a highly sensitive organ of perception and communication that is connected to the autonomic nervous system and can even store unprocessed emotions. The text draws parallels between fascial pathways and acupuncture meridians, suggesting an energetic dimension to fascia. Various therapies, such as exercise and manual techniques, are presented as important for releasing fascial adhesions and promoting healing processes. The text emphasizes the importance of fascia research for a better understanding of the connection between body, mind and environment and identifies open questions regarding its interaction with the energy field and consciousness.
Navelcenter and Hara
We examine the navel center or hara as an important energetic and physiological center of the body. The navel’s connection to the fascial network, the autonomic nervous system and the „abdominal brain“ is explained, emphasizing its role in stress responses, emotions and healing processes. Various therapeutic and spiritual traditions are presented that place the navel at the center of physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. Finally, practical exercises to strengthen and harmonize this center are described in order to improve the connection to one’s own body and mind.
Navel, Hara and Dantien 2
The podcast again follows the text exploring the navel, hara or lower Danjeon or Dan Tian as a vital energetic and physical center in the human body, drawing upon perspectives from anatomy, physiology, and various therapeutic and spiritual traditions. It discusses the navel’s role as the center of the fascial system and its connection to the enteric nervous system (gut-brain) and the solar plexus and vagus nerve. The text highlights the navel’s significance in fetal development, trauma processing, and its potential for healing and self-regulation. Various practices are presented again, including neural therapy, somatic experience, biodynamic psychology, Ortho-Bionomy, reflex therapy, Kinesiology, TCM, Ohrakupunktur, Ayurveda, Yoga, Anthroposophy, Sufism, Shamanism, Breema, Sundo, Belly Button Healing and Navel integration all emphasizing the importance of this central area for physical and emotional well-being and spiritual connection.
Pelvic torsion
This talk discusses pelvic torsion as a sign of a regulatory disorder of the autonomic nervous system in which the fascial system is asymmetrically tense. Causes such as stress, trauma and interference fields are described, which can lead to physical and psychological complaints. The talk explains how we can recognize pelvic torsion and our sources of stress with the integral stress test and gives instructions for self-treatment, with navel integration, scar integration and aura relief, with the aim of rebalancing the nervous system. Finally, orthobionomic treatment approaches for affected joints and the integration of pain zones are presented.
The integral stresstest
The podcast describes the „Integral Stress Test,“ a method designed to assess bodily stress by identifying and addressing what are termed „stress regions“ or „interference fields.“ The core of this method involves observing changes in a pelvic torsion, when specific areas, particularly the navel, or suspected „interference fields“ are touched, treated with a laser, or energetically relieved. The document outlines three stress reflexes—the navel reflex, the interference focus reflex, and the aura reflex—each indicating different types of stress and their impact on the body’s fascial and autonomic nervous systems. It also categorizes „interference focuses“ and „interference fields“ as primary or secondary, distinguishing between those that directly cause pelvic torsion and those that become apparent after initial stress is resolved, with an emphasis on how unprocessed emotions and trauma can manifest as energetic disturbances in the „aura,“ affecting overall well-being.
Fascia Integration Therapy ( FIT)
Fascia Integration Therapy ( FIT) emphasizes the umbilicus (navel) as a central point for releasing tension within the fascial system, aiming to alleviate sympathetic nervous system activity and activate the vagus nerve. Techniques involve gentle manipulation of the navel in conjunction with a second hand placed on various areas like the neck, flank, or scar tissue, to address pain, stress, and even deeply held emotional traumas. The therapy also incorporates „aurarelief,“ a technique where hands are held at a distance from the body to release energetic tension, particularly in cases of severe stress or trauma. The overarching goal is to achieve systemic relaxation and emotional release, leading to a sense of renewal . The effect on the nervous system is prooved by a relaxed pelvic area.
Low back pain
This document explores back pain, focusing on its often nonspecific natureand underlying causes beyond typical wear and tear or disc herniations. It highlights pelvic torsionand muscle tension, particularly involving the sacroiliac joint, as frequent contributors to pain, often triggered by stress. The text also discusses traditional symptomatic treatmentsfor back pain, contrasting them with an „Integral Orthopedics“ approach that seeks to address stress-related fascial tension and neurovegetative dysregulation as root causes, often through techniques like scar and navel integration. It additionally offers practical advice on managing acute and chronic back pain, emphasizing rest, gentle movement, and avoiding certain postures, while also touching upon the use of pain medication and the concept of pain as a signal.
Our spine- the pillar of our life
The Podcast : Spine – The Pillar of Life) explores the profound connection between the human spine and the essence of life itself. It metaphorically portrays the spine as a dynamic pillar that navigates the interplay between movement and stillness, carrying not only physical weight but also the burdens of life experiences. The text emphasizes the spine’s initial flexibility in childhood before it adapts to the challenges of an upright existence and the accumulation of stress. Ultimately, it suggests that cultivating a balanced and free-flowing spine is crucial for physical health, emotional well-being, and a deeper connection to life’s purpose and love.
The concept of stress- and traumafields and it’s healing within integral orthopedics
This podcast discusses the concept of a trauma field an environment or dynamic where traumatic experiences and their effects are particularly present. This term, while not standardized in psychology, can describe psychological/therapeutic, systemic, pedagogical, or societal contexts where trauma influences individuals and groups, often manifesting as flashbacks, hyperarousal, or transgenerational patterns. It emphasizes the need for trauma-sensitive approaches to prevent re-traumatization. The approach of Dr. Khalil Kermani’s Integral Orthopedics, defines the trauma field as an energetic and physical disturbance that stores unresolved traumas and emotions within the body’s fascial and nervous systems, often indicated by pelvictorsion. This approach seeks to release these stored traumas through techniques of the fasciaintegration therapy to restore the body’s self-regulation.
Integral psychoorthopedics and trauma therapy
Integral psychotherapy concentrates on painful body regions, often with a therapist’s guiding hand, to release emotional and physical tensions and promote repair processes. IntegralTraumatherapy, building on the concept of embodiment, asserts that unprocessed trauma is stored not only within the body’s tissues, especially scars and fascia, but also in an external „disturbance field“ connected to the autonomic nervous system. This therapy utilizes techniques like manual navel and scar relaxation, along with mindful interaction within the trauma field, to release pent-up emotions, restore autonomic regulation, and enhance psychological stability, emphasizing careful titration for severely traumatized individuals. Both methods highlight the importance of body awareness, the therapist’s mindful presence, and the release of stored emotional and physical blockages for overall well-being and healing.
Energetic living through mind and body movement
This podcast emphasizes that true health is measured not by chronological age but by an individual’s vitality and positive outlook, which are influenced by both physical and mental well-being. It highlights the interconnectedness of body and mind, explaining how movement is crucial for physical health, lubricating joints, aiding circulation, and maintaining spinal disc hydration, much like a sponge. Furthermore, the text advocates for a balanced approach to activity and rest, stressing that intellectual engagement, creative pursuits, and social involvement are equally important for sustaining youthfulness and mental sharpness. Ultimately, it suggests that mindfulness, proper breathing, and cultivating an appreciation for the present moment are key to accessing an inner source of strength and connection to a higher consciousness, leading to a life filled with peace and joy regardless of external circumstances.
The magic in our brain
The talk discuss how the brain operates as a complex system, processing external stimuli and internal states to generate our reality. It explains key components like the limbic system for emotions, the thalamus as a sensory gateway, and the energy-efficient predictive coding mechanism. Notably, the podcast emphasizes neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to reorganize throughout life, and highlight how practices like meditation, exercise, and good sleep can positively alter neural structures and improve emotional regulation and cognitive function.
The nature of thoughts
This podcast explores the nature and power of thoughts, presenting them as a distinct dimension that influences our inner and outer realities. It suggests that thoughts, like feelings, arise from internal processes or external stimuli and can operate somewhat independently of our conscious will, yet also shape our perceptions, emotions, and even physical responses. The text emphasizes the interplay between individual and societal thinking, highlighting how shared mindsets can impact personal development and collective trajectories, even warning that current thinking patterns may be self-destructive despite technological advancements. Ultimately, the text proposes that by learning to consciously observe, direct, and quiet our thoughts, we can gain greater freedom, access deeper insights, and cultivate a more present and fulfilling experience of life, offering practical exercises for achieving this mental discipline.
The power of emotions
This podcast discuss emotions as a crucial bridge between body, mind, and life, highlighting their origins in both internal and external factors. The text explains how emotions are processed through the nervous system, particularly the brain and the enteric nervous system (gut brain), and can become blocked or „frozen“ within the body, especially in the fascia. The text emphasize that emotions are not exclusive to humans, but are experienced by other living beings, are often more powerful than thoughts, and can be a primary motivator for actions, although past experiences can lead to emotional confusion. The source also suggests that releasing blocked emotions through practices involving touch, movement, and conscious encounter can lead to greater self-awareness and access to a deeper, more authentic emotional state, which is ultimately described as joy.
Ego and self
This text explores the intricate relationship between the egoand the self, positing the self as our conscious being, a product of evolution shaped by both positive and negative experiences, and inherently interconnected with all other selves. It suggests that modern society’s self-image often ignores this connection, leading to detrimental outcomes for the world. The podcast outlines various paths to rediscover our inner reality and reconnect with the self, which is described as transcending the limitations of the ego and offering strength and guidance. The text also examines the ego’s hierarchical structure, its fundamental programs, and how its separation from the self contributes to societal and personal suffering. Ultimately, it emphasizes that by learning to harmonize our perceptions, emotions, and thoughts, the egocan become an instrument of the self, fostering a deeper connection with life and leading to personal and collective well-being.
Our aura and it’s relation to ANS and fascia
The sources explore the concept of the aura from an interdisciplinary perspective, moving beyond its traditional mystical associations. They propose that the aura, often understood as an energetic field surrounding living beings, can be approached through modern scientific lenses like neurobiology, fascia research, and bioelectromagnetism. The texts, particularly from the viewpoint of Integral Orthopedics, suggest a demonstrable link between the aura and the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and fascial system, asserting that stress and trauma can be stored in this field, affecting physical and psychological well-being. Both sources emphasize the therapeutic application of „aura relief“ techniques, highlighting their observed effects on physiological regulation and emotional release, while acknowledging that many aspects remain beyond conventional scientific measurement. They ultimately advocate for an integrated understanding, combining scientific findings with cultural wisdom to view the aura as a reflection of subtle biological processes.
The matrix of our consciousness 1
A talk about a possible approach to integrate spirituality in our life. See the information at Matrix 2 .
The matrix of our consciousness 2
This source introduces the concept of a „Matrix of Consciousness“, proposing it as an expansive evolution of the „IntegralOrthopedics„ framework previously discussed, which focused on the body’s fascial system. It presents a metaphorical „game„ to help readers challenge conventional thinking and align with their inner rules rather than external societal pressures. The text encourages liberating the mind from ingrained patterns, cleansing one’s energy field and fascial matrix, and embracing the journey without a fixed destination, emphasizing that the „Game Master“ (life itself) guides the experience. It outlines „keys to freedom,“including the importance of mindful presence, connecting with inner strength, and viewing life’s challenges as opportunities for growth, ultimately advocating for a harmonious and intuitive approach to living.
