Suzanne Scurlock – The Core Embodiment Process
Suzanne Scurlock-Durana, CMT, CST-D
Tuesday, January 23, 2018
Discover practices you’ll use for a lifetime to listen to your body’s wisdom and meet challenges with renewed energy and trust.
Accelerate your recovery time when life’s “trauma-dramas” take you down, and step into more freedom in everything you do.
You’ve undoubtedly been told that to feel better, all you need to do isTrust…
You probably also know that establishing trust starts with trusting yourself.
Yet, are you aware of your most reliable resource for cultivating this self-trust?
It’s your Body Wisdom… the body’s spontaneous sensations that alert you to how to be safe, comfortable, and happy in any given moment.
Your Body Wisdom is your full-spectrum form of sensing — your head-to-toe intuition. Listening to the signals your body sends throughout the day — gut feelings, tugs at your heart, legs that want to move (and fast) — sounds like an easy enough practice, right?
As a species, we’ve been doing it for millennia. Early humans depended on this full-body wisdom in an instinctual way, just like wild animals used it to hunt for food and stay safe.
The problem is, most of us have developed blocks to our Body Wisdom.
We shut out physical and emotional sensations (all feeling) due to past traumas. We let limiting beliefs about ourselves and our bodies skew our perceptions about what our body is trying to tell us.
We also get distracted by the world around us — by our digital gadgets and the often unsettling state of affairs. You may even catch yourself over-empathizing with those less fortunate, which can cause you to let too much sensing and feeling in.
So, what can you do to break through these blocks and distractions to access your most valuable resource for cultivating more trust, presence, and freedom… AND for living a calmer, more fulfilling, and enjoyable life?
Be Guided by a Conscious Awareness Expert…
In The Core Embodiment Process, instructor Suzanne Scurlock-Durana, CMT, CST-D, will lead you in highly experiential practices that get you in touch with your body’s wisdom. So you learn to easily access it as your go-to inner compass for navigating all of life.
Suzanne is one of the world’s leading authorities on conscious awareness and its transformational impact on the healing process. For more than 30 years, she’s empowered others with practical tools that help improve every aspect of their lives — from health and wellbeing to relationships, career, creativity, and spiritual growth.
Our body’s wisdom, Suzanne teaches, speaks to each of us in unique ways. In times of stress, some might have a “felt sense” that creates a wave of sensation throughout the body. Others may feel contracted in the gut. Still others may notice a blocking off or a numbness in the pelvic area.

Suzanne understands. Her proven methods for awakening the body’s innate wisdom — and her work as a practitioner and international instructor of Craniosacral Therapy and SomatoEmotional Release® — were inspired in early adulthood by a violent attack involving a trusted friend that left her with chronic pain and emotional trauma.
As she learned, our reactions to our body sensations can often be overly vigilant because our brain may be thinking that what’s happening now is similar to a past traumatic event.
This locks us out of the current moment and leaves us vulnerable because we can’t accurately sense what the rest of our body is telling us.
Unfortunately, if you can’t feel present-moment sensations, you’re left to relating with past experience through the mind only. And that’s just not enough to create the internal peace you crave.
Movement, Breath, Dreams & Community
In this self-empowering 21-week program, you’ll learn proven approaches for getting past your blocks to your body’s wisdom.
You’ll discover that your body has very specific ways of talking to you. And you’ll learn to approach this innate language with curiosity to “read” it more quickly and easily…
When you can do this, you’ll discover that it’s so much easier to access the feelings of calmness, clarity, and groundedness that can make all of life better.
You’ll even discover how to cultivate this heightened awareness when you need it — to be proactive versus reactive in a strained situation, for example. Your relationships with others (including animals) will deepen as your groundedness and relaxed presence make you more approachable and ready to receive.
AND this deeper sense of connection will spill into your connection with all of life — heightening your sense of belonging and deepening your trust in yourself and others.
You’ll also open yourself to the possibility for accelerated physical and emotional healing as you listen more closely to your body and respond to its needs more quickly.
When you can explore the “dark” and “light” sides of trusting in the nurturing energy available to you, you’re able to better sense this energy — and to integrate desirable levels into your entire system to help build and maintain feelings of trust, ease, and vitality.
Suzanne will also share experiential practices that will help unveil when your body is letting in and feeling too much. She’ll guide you in setting strong yet healthfully flexible boundaries in these circumstances…
And, she’ll offer you many ways to quiet your mind and tune into your body, including breathing exercises, explorative movements, approaches for merely “being” with your feelings, as well as looking to your nighttime dreams for insights and guidance.
Here’s more of what you’ll discover in this 21-week journey of coming home to your body’s wisdom:
- The 5 keys that contribute to full-body presence
- The actual steps of the Core Embodiment Process
- How to make trust an attribute you want to reach for in each moment
- The energy-draining myths about healthy boundaries
- Ways to dissolve inner blocks and limiting beliefs
- How to unlock your creativity and problem solving skills by expanding how you think about yourself and the world
- The key action step for manifesting what you want in your life
- How to add yourself to your own to-do list and create nourishing resources for better resilience and health
- How to recognize how your dreams speak to you in the language of your inner landscape revealing its wisdom
- How to decipher the symbolism that arises in your dreams
- How to accelerate your recovery time when life’s trauma dramas take you down
- How to meet all of life’s challenges with renewed energy and trust
- How to step into more freedom in everything you do
- And much, much more
When we commit to the journey of coming home to ourselves, we can more easily unveil our physical, emotional, and spiritual resistance — even when we’re feeling fear, rage, or sadness.
Suzanne will help you walk through your sometimes unsettling inner landscape with the resources, courage, and freedom you need to meet your inner demons… and disempower them.
She’ll share practices to help you approach what arises with strength, self-love, and compassion. So you can recognize and embody your Body Wisdom and use it as a consistent ally.
When you can make your body’s wisdom your go-to navigator for your life, you not only build the trust that opens the door to greater presence, calm, and clarity. You also find that you’re no longer ruffled by the trauma-dramas around you.
You also find and feel great pleasure in your simple daily interactions with others, as you’re more present, aware, and free for camaraderie and connection — and better able to listen beyond your mind’s usual chatter.
As you more fully embody this oldest of wisdom resources, your preoccupation with worry, or your habit of “tuning out” your body’s signals to shut out a past trauma, gives way to the nourishing flow of life energy within and around you …
You open more expansively to all of life. And in doing so, your own unique gifts more readily flow through and from you out into the world. You feel freer, happier, more creative, and more vital.
This is your opportunity to build your self-trust. Cultivate true full-body presence. And open to the sheer enjoyment of life using practices you’ll value for a lifetime.
Greater Connection Through Live Streaming Video

In this intimate interview led by Suzanne, Stephen Porges discusses the complex topic of how Polyvagal Theory applies to Craniosacral Therapy.

Not only do these events take a toll on our psyches, in Reclaiming Your Body: Healing From Trauma & Awakening to Your Body’s Wisdom (New World Library, June, 2017), author Suzanne Scurlock-Durana explains how they they cut us off from the wisdom of our bodies as well.
