This work has to be Self first
Now more than ever we ourselves need to look after our own lives and bodies.
Then we look outwards to others – with more compassion as we too have considerable challenges.
Be assured that we have all had busy/fractured and interesting paths to get to be on this page- we can’t NOT to do it. We come from all places and chosen careers – all working deeply at the root of why we are who we are.
The online courses are simple, easy and can be used instantly.
The experiential classes were pre 2020 the pathway to the hands-on training.
We have to use the work I have put in over the past decades of creating online trainings Please be aware that I try to stay abreast of shifts – but some links may no longer work –
This work is subtle, profound you will not be the same again – as we move within ourselves – all of us. To then be more able to stand in clarity for others.
About the work:
The Gentling Way is an amalgamation of all I have discovered that ‘works’/ moves blockages to flows in my personal life, and in clinic over the past 40+ years. Allowing nature to reassert itself. Not forcing.
Holistic multi modality transformative energy body mechanics
This is a different concept – integrative interaction – the one who seeks and the one who asks different questions of the body to bring through what is need. To be able to, the vehicle/receptacle of the seeker/ ‘practitioner’ needs to be clearer and more aligned with service, and intention – not current acceptable dogma.
The Gentling Way is respectful
This is about Sustainable Humanity and the future
The entry point to enable YOU to step into the Living Ligaments trajectory to become a Gentling Way practitioner is the Gentling Way Self Care weekend workshop.
intimate small classes in person
We have so much online manual pages with video of me teaching and demonstrating – that this is enriches the learning experience.
As always – there is the catching up with concepts and getting a nodding acquaintance with the work – in theory and working in yourself.
The hands on with others
The after care – mentoring/after sales’ service.
About you:
I expect all undertaking this course of self-discovery and group service to be:
- ‘Independent thinker
- Not a guru follower.
- Prone to going off on tangents
- Able to use your own inner guidance – or at least be open to this
- Possibly already have a hands-on healing tool – using Reiki, polarity therapy, etc
- May be a body worker, acupuncturist, Shiatsu practitioner or similar
- Not be averse to completely changing all focus as needed.
- Not be tied into dogma, what is ‘safe’ and what appears to be where the world is heading.
- May feel CALLED to do this – so much so that they can not NOT do it.
What others say of this
Holistic . .
‘Heather was so generous in her desire to pass on her knowledge, so that we as practitioners can really help people undo the damage of a lifetime of living. With a strong emphasis on hearing and healing the whole story, rather than just an isolated complaint, Heather’s work is the epitome of holistic. I have come away from this weekend with so much information, so many resources, and some amazing transformative tools that I can wind into my own practice start taking things to the next level’. Tanya – Banora Point
We undo why healing is not happening naturally – yet.
‘‘The Gentling Way approach combines a simple and sensible approach which allows healing through recognition of our blockages, taking out what is not meant to be there and nourishing the body thus allowing the body to restore itself to health (homeostasis). It is not focused on the name of the disease state, but rather that the disease state is a reflection that we are not in a state of health and initiates the movement towards a state of health through understanding.
‘I then stumbled across the Gentling Way which was profoundly what I was searching for and continually reminds me that healing is unique to the individual and can be so simple. For me, the Gentling Way merges all of the basis tenants and concepts I have learnt from my previous studies and practical experience, and combines them into an instantly applicable framework with directly observed results. Not focusing on disease, but the unfavourable conditions preventing a return to health.
‘Living the Gentling Way with my wife and taking responsibility for our own health, we have seen remarkable changes at both a biological and relationship level. It is as though subconscious barriers that separated us are being eroded and deepening our relationship. I am a believer of what works and I am passionate to share this knowledge to assist others with their healing journey’ . David – Brisbane.

We work through following nature – and what was ‘common sense’.
“Have many of you had questions on how to deal with difficult pregnancy cases? I have been working with pregnancy moms for the last 5 years. I finally found a person with the solutions. Heather Bruce. All the books and the online information I have found until Heather, were not very effective. I had an extremely difficult case, a pregnant mom with heavy metal poisoning, severe pelvic pain, suffering from heartburn and insomnia. I used all the points I researched in my books and online and it DID NOTHING. I was not able to shift her condition in the least. I reached out to Heather Bruce, and she replied to me right away with solutions that were simple, practical,which involved moving energy and getting the mom the proper nutrients she needed. My client’s pain improved.
‘Her online courses are amazing. The Transformative Healing Package has golden nuggets of knowledge. Heather’s 8 extra courses are the reason I went into acupuncture school to become a healer. A shaman. A person that can show people how to transcend where they are in their lives and moved past it. These will be the best spent few hours of your life. And will shift the foundation of your practice to be built anew. I feel like I have waited my whole career for Heather’s information. – Carine, L.A.
Anyone can . . Shiatsu
“Having completely reshaped all I do since discovering Heather’s work in 2010, (after 12 years as a Shiatsu practitioner), I came away rich with new learning and the three days in Living Ligaments practical made a profound difference in my own clinical practice. I feel like nothing would to be too hard in pregnancy to treat on my table in clinic, it was really an opportunity to be hands on with all of the course material we have had and received from Heather over the past 2 years”. – Maja – Cairns

Living Ligaments I and the advanced Living Ligaments II have had to be online.
We CAN do this – but ideally you get to feel the massive shifts so little may bring you. And others you touch.
