I hope this article will introduce you to some of where we view life from, and to how this may be of benefit to you. The aim is to keep it short and succinct – I would appreciate your well considered feedback!
By way of background, myself, Duncan Hogg, and my wife, Gina Carruthers are the publishers of this site as well as the directors of our company, ‘Health In Perspective’. Gina has a psychology degree, three adult children and an undeniable attraction to living the meaning of life. She has a great smile and a sharp awareness of how things exist in relationship to other things. She loves the garden and doesn’t fit well into any discreet category. I like her a lot and we have been together for twenty years. As for me, I consider myself fortunate to have had a close association with a genius – Dr Don McFarland – virtually since I left school. My formal psychology studies lasted 3 weeks in 1986. My ongoing involvement with Don McFarland and the practices of Body Harmony® have been continuous for twenty two years. One of my objectives through this site is to make available the truly remarkable possibilities I have experienced through the practices of Body Harmony®.
Okay – so ‘Health In Perspective’ is a succinct summary in words of what we consider to be most relevant to your/our overall wellbeing. Quality of life as an expression of quality of relationship(s), because nothing exists in isolation. ‘Health In Perspective’ is also a statement that reflects our understanding of how people perceive, – the fundamental mechanics of perception, particularly self-perception. We look at the structure and organisation of perception and its relationship to outcomes, and we look at this by looking at the posture of our bodies. We recognise posture to be the relationship of the various parts of your body, one to the other(s) and within gravity. Herein your potential lies. Alignment of your body is not some abstract idea of correct posture, its about efficency and ease. And it’s the natural inclination of your biology. Bodywork, – Body Harmony® – this is the tool we use to reach your objectives. If you have a problem look also to the way you structure yourself within this problem. Then learn to trust gravity again. Get back in your zone of peak performance – it’s unlike anyone elses!
