There are some topics out there that are all too familiar and yet quite foreign to many of us.

To teach the world about our bodies and to facilitate health and wellness.

One of the beauties of osteopathy is how we pass on the marks of mentorship and the legacies of our teachers to both our patients and our colleagues. Attuned intuition, focused attention with deliberate intention, well-trained hands, grounded minds, and persistent dependence on anatomy are just a few of the lessons I got to revisit with today’s guest and one of my own mentors.

William Garner Sutherland's "Contribution of Thought" is a seminal work in osteopathy that outlines his philosophical and practical contributions to the field. It's recognized for its influence on osteopathic principles, particularly regarding cranial osteopathy. The book discusses the importance of understanding the body's inherent ability to heal and the role of the practitioner in facilitating this process. It's valued for its depth of insight and has been referenced extensively in osteopathic literature and education. On today's episode, you're going to hear my own personal contribution of thought regarding a single chapter in William Garner Sutherland's "Contribution of Thought."
