The Inner Power of Stillness & Presence in a Therapeutic Relationship -
Alexander Filmer-Lorch trained as a professional dancer with the John Cranko Ballet Academy in Stuttgart, Germany. His extensive studies of Eastern psychology and philosophy, yogic disciplines and meditation took place in the traditional one-to-one practice of teacher and student.
He opened his clinic Insight Therapy in 2002 where he treats and facilitates people as a Cranio-Sacral practitioner, as well as teaching ‘Inner Work’ and meditation. Alexander has created a style of remedial yoga more suited to the western body, based on the latest research into the interconnectedness of fascia.
Alexander founded Inside Meditation, a modern school of neutral thought in London, offering a range of CPD programmes. In addition, he mentors a variety of practitioners who work with the psychological and or physiological body; designing and delivering accredited meditation-therapy courses and teacher trainings.
In September 2016 Alexander was invited to teach, The Inner Power of Stillness and Presence in a Therapeutic Relationship to clinicians and managers at the South West London and St George’s Mental Health Trust. The intention is to increase both personal resilience as well as the therapeutic effectiveness of staff in different areas of the public health sector.
Alexander’s work as a practitioner, mentor, author, presenter, philosophical thinker, and a teacher in a synthesis of 35 years of experience in movement, yogic disciplines, meditation, applied philosophy and Eastern psychology, aiming to bring the body, mind, and spirit to a natural state of meditative synthesis.
His first book, Inside Meditation, was published in 2012, and his second book The Inner Power of Stillness, Handspring Publishing, arrived in August 2016.
