33
What are Chakra's?
Thresholds between the ordinary and non-ordinary consciousness
34
What does the Occipital bone articulate with?
Parietal bones superiorly at the lambdoid suture Laterally with the mastoid portions of the temporal bones Sphenoid anteriorly
35
What are the 4 S's of the Sacrum
Sacred Sensual Sexual Spiritual

Cranial Keystone Sphenoid movement, at the SBS, was central to motion of the entire craniosacral mechanism Considered the "Dreaming Bone
38
What is the SBS (Sphenobasila Synchondrosis)

Where does the Medial Pterygoid Muscle originate?
Deep head from the medial surface of the lateral pterygoid plate
41
Where does Medial Pterygoid Muscle insert?
The master muscle to form a common tendinous sling
42
Where does the lateral pterygoid muscle originate?
Upper/Superior head Greater wing of the sphenoid bone Lower/Inferior head on the lateral surface of the lateral pterygoid plate
43

47
How many hemispheres of the brain
2; Left and right
48
What is the Arachnoid? What is superficial and what is deeper
It is interposed between the two other meninges the more superficial and much thicker dura mater and the deeper pia mater from which it is separated by the subarachnoid space. The delicate arachnoid layer is attached to the inside of the dura and surrounds the brain and spinal cord.
49
what does the Faux cerebrum do
Separates the two hemisphers
50
What is the cerebral cortex?
Folded structure; Brain
51
What are arachniod granulations?
projections of the arachnoid membrane (villi) into the dural sinuses that allow CSF entrance from the subarachnoid space into the venous system.
