Geraldine Matus, PhD

Since 1977, Dr. Matus has practiced various healing arts from a psychophysiological perspective. Her professional training includes modalities grounded in functional medicine and depth psychology. The intention of her work is to support the development of the wholeness of human physiology and personality, through diet, lifestyle, ritual, celebration, dreamwork, and creativity. Her approach is contemplative and justice oriented. Her lifepath continues to be guided by dreams and synchronicity. In this presentation Dr. Matus will share her theoretical insights and clinical experience with respect to the topic. What We’ll Explore Leonard Cohen’s song Light as a Breeze includes the line “But don’t forget there’s still a woman / Beneath this /Resplendent chemise.” This line came to Geraldine’s mind one day when considering how the FABM movement is moving more and more deeply into the scientific paradigm and forgetting the subtilties of the person that is engaged with the method, including educators and promoters. This lecture and workshop will be an opportunity to explore what exactly is beneath that resplendent chemise and why does that matter in the context of the FABM movement.
