BBSH ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY CURRICULUM
A fundamental and comprehensive study of anatomy and
physiology is an important aspect of becoming a professional
healer. The BBSH Anatomy and Physiology curriculum provides
students with an essential
foundation as they learn to work
with the energy of specific
organs and body systems.
All of the anatomy and
physiology courses are designed
to support the student’s
development of High Sense
Perception, and their Healing
Science and Psych-Spiritual Development skills, while deepening
their knowledge of the physical body. An understanding of the
anatomy and physiology of the physical body and its
interrelatedness to the Human Energy-Consciousness System
supports a truly integrative approach to healing.
All students are required to complete Anatomy and
Physiology I. This course focuses on the body in terms of
systems and their structure, function and interdependence, and
is interwoven with the exploration of how the anatomy and
physiology of the physical body is related to and interdependent
upon the Human Energy-Consciousness System. This integrated
approach challenges students to broaden their perspective of the
physical body to a holographic model, as they apply principles
of Brennan Healing Science and healing.
Students who enroll in the Brennan Healing Science degree
program are required to complete additional coursework in
Anatomy and Physiology. During their second year of study,
building upon basic concepts developed in Anatomy and
Physiology I and the theme of relationship in the Year 2 of
study, students explore the physiologic functioning of the body
in health and illness with specific attention to the interrelatedness of body systems, and the energetic-physiologic
responses that occur in relationship to the outside world.
In A&P III students learn about the energetic and physical
manifestations in the healthy body including specific life stage
changes, and looking at the specific cellular activity of specific
organs. The manifestation of several disease processes is also
covered, and students expand their knowledge about working

with surgical and organ transplant clients.
To support students’ ability to integrate more advanced Brennan
Healing Science skills, such as Core Star and Hara Healings, more
advanced concepts of physiology and pathophysiology are
presented in A&P IV. These advanced BBSH Anatomy and
Physiology programs (A&P II, III, IV) are also open to students
in the Brennan Healing Science Professional Studies Year 2,
Year 3, and Year 4 diploma programs as elective courses.
All BBSH Anatomy and Physiology courses are scheduled
in conjunction with BBSH Resident Training Sessions. Students
enrolled in A&P I attend two days of classes attached to the
regularly scheduled BBSH Resident Training Sessions, five
times a year. Students enrolled in A&P II, A&P III and A&P IV
generally attend one day of class attached to the regularly
scheduled BBSH Resident Training Sessions, five times a year.
Students are also given reading and homework assignments that
support in-class learning. The entire curriculum is an integrated,
interactive, hands-on exploration of the mystery of the human
body as an energy consciousness system.
The Anatomy and Physiology faculty are Brennan Healing
Science Practitioners who have additional experience teaching
and working as healthcare professionals. They embody a unique
combination of medicine and healing, serving as exceptional
resources and models for students who are learning to provide
integrative care as Brennan Healing Science Practitioners.
