What's the difference between the 2 Healing From the Core® Programs?
Healing From the Core® is tailored to professionals: hands-on bodyworkers, acupuncturists, OTs, PTs, counselors, coaches, and therapists who can deepen their therapeutic presence within their practice, whether that’s in-person or virtual. It includes hands-on exercises that you can start using in your practice the same day.
Self Healing From the Core® is for everyone who wants to use the tools of Healing From the Core in their daily lives, both for personal growth and to deepen their connections with family, friends, and others. This curriculum is all about You: Your grounding, your presence, your personal growth and healing, your expansion of consciousness, and more! Every course is designed to help you take your personal awareness and healing to the next level.
How is Healing From the Core® different from Developing and Deepening CranioSacral Presence (Upledger Institute)?
Healing From the Core® and Self Healing From the Core® were all birthed from a training that was originally designed with healthcare professionals—and CranioSacral Therapists in particular—in mind. Today its audiences includes a broad spectrum of people and professionals, including teachers, parents and other caregivers, business managers and leaders, healthcare professionals and members of the lay public.
Our curricula includes in-depth exploration of topics such as holding a healing space for another person, projection and shadow, the use of breath and movement for centering, and releasing impediments to full body presence.
Developing and Deepening CranioSacral Presence (DDCSP – Upledger Institute) takes this foundational material and tailors it to the specific needs of CranioSacral Therapists. This cutting edge workshop combines hands-on protocols and therapeutic presence, teaching therapists how to cultivate their personal navigational fields for more effective treatment outcomes for whatever client population a therapist may work with.

Are live online courses recorded? Will there be replays?
Yes! Our live courses are recorded and each day’s content will be uploaded a few hours later. So if necessary, you can watch it that night or the next morning before the next day of training begins. You'll also have full replay access should you be unable to attend live due to different time zones or other commitments.
We’ll have quizzes to check that you watched the videos so we know that you completed the material. The recordings will be up within a few hours of each training day’s end.
For live courses where we offer CEs, make arrangements to attend live.
Your Agreement to the Use of Audio/Video:
Aside from breakout rooms, every class we teach online is recorded for future use.
If you do not want audio or video of you included in our recordings, you will need to turn off your microphone or webcam.
Instead, you may submit training questions to us by email. We will answer in the class without referencing your name.

Are the course quizzes difficult?
Not at all. The questions aren’t designed to stump you. They’re simply there to give us proof that you watched the training.
This is important for both your Certification and if you choose to get CEs from the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB). (The NCBTMB will not approve any trainings on distance work at this time. However, Healing From the Core On Demand is approved, and we are in the process of acquiring CE approvals for all of the Immersion courses.)
What do I include in my Session Recording?!
You’ll have access to a one-page handout with Session Evaluation Criteria in the Online Training Center, and a short video by Suzanne to answer the most commonly asked questions about it.
Do I have to be Certified as a Practitioner of HFC first before I can apply to become Master Certified?
Yes.

You can stay on the Certification Track for up to 3 years to complete all the requirements.

Everyone receives a thoughtful evaluation of their Certification Application with recognition of your strengths, and recommendations for improvement. If you do not pass a portion of your application, you can resubmit that part of it. You won't have to replay the $97 Licensing fee, however there is a $50 fee for each resubmission, to cover the time and attention provided by your expert application Reviewer.
What is the OTC?
"OTC" is short for "Online Training Center", which is your one-stop spot to access all of the following:
The OTC is hosted on the Teachable platform.
Where is the OTC?
Be sure to bookmark this page: https://training.healingfromthecore.com.
You'll also find several links to it from the menus of this website, as well as a handy link or two in the footer at the bottom of every page.
I'm new to your OTC and have never used it before.
How do I access my course?
For every course or program you are a participant in with us, you’ll receive a link that will add it to your OTC. All you need to do is click through on the link in one of the registration confirmation emails and it will add the course to your account.
If you haven't received the link, please check for the delivery email in your junk folder, or if you use gmail, in your social and promotions tabs before contacting us.
How do I access a video or audio series?
For each series year you purchase, you will receive a separate email with a unique one-time link to use to access that series.
These emails are sent within moments of your completed purchase. If you purchased two or more series at the same time, those emails will have been sent to you at approximately the same time, and are hopefully next to each other in your inbox.
I already have an account. How do I add new courses and/or audio and video series to it?
You're absolutely right — you only need to create one account!
The special one-time links we email you will add each series, plus any other media product or online course you may purchase from us, to the same account. You only need one login to easily access all of your Healing From the Core® content, anywhere and anytime you need it.
When you're directed to a sign-up page, this means that you're signed out of your account on the device you're using. After you click the special one-time link, look for the "Login" link and use that to sign in to instantly access your course.
The OTC says I’m only X% complete but I took the whole course. Why is that?
The percentage of the course is merely a count of how many pages you have marked as complete in the Online Training Center, which is not a requirement for any of our live courses currently. So assuming you are asking about a live online course, there's no need to worry about it.
(For most of our on demand courses, you must complete each page to move through the course. Instructions are within the course.)
I tried to access my OTC account from the Teachable homepage, but I'm unable to log in. What's happening?
Teachable offers two types of accounts: School accounts and My Teachable.
School accounts are logins to just one school while My Teachable accounts can be used across schools.
They offer a choice to use one of the other when you create your account, however they don't make this distinction very obvious.
You most likely have a School account. You can login anytime at https://training.healingfromthecore.com.
If you would rather have a My Teachable account (for example, if you take courses from another provider that also uses Teachable as their platform), you can combine the accounts such that you only need to have one login for all of your courses on Teachable. Here's more information about that.
We hope that helps!
