À propos de cet audio

Today's conversation is with Will Johnson.

Will received his B.A., magna cum laude, in Art and Archaeology from Princeton University in 1968. After graduation, he worked for several years as an art critic in New York before moving to the west coast of North America where he began actively exploring gazing, moving, and sitting meditations. He became a Buddhist practitioner in 1972 and was trained as a Rolfer™ in 1976. He began the formal sharing of the practices of Embodiment Training in 1995. he’s the author of 15 books (two of which won awards as “Best Spiritual Book of the Year.”) on the role of the body in spiritual awakening which can be ordered through your local bookseller or online at Will Johnson's Books .

He and his wife (and partner in the practices) Coco live in Delicias, Costa Rica, just outside the little bohemian town of Montezuma at the southern tip of the Nicoya peninsula where they have created Bambu Hueco, the Hollow Bamboo Retreat Center where they welcome serious meditation students to enter into intensive 7-21 day self retreat. During these retreats, people have the opportunity to work closely with Will in their meditation practices and receive deep bodywork and dream sessions as support for their intensive practice.

In today’s talk we explored the lesser-known tributaries of Dr. Rolf’s vision — what Will calls the “mystery school” of evolutionary transformation. He spoke about the line not only as structural balance, but as a doorway into profound states of awakening, breath, and spontaneous movement.

Will also reflected on the role psychedelics have played in his own path, describing them as catalytic allies that can accelerate openings into these deeper states.

Looking ahead, Will has announced a gathering in Costa Rica in February 2026, where practitioners will explore line states in community through hands-on work, spontaneous movement, and entheogenic support. His hope is to reawaken this dimension of Rolf’s teaching and invite others into its transformative potential
