In Memoriam: Franklyn Sills🕊️
Honoring a Pioneer of Integrative Healing and Polarity Wisdom

In his book The Polarity Process: Energy as a Healing Art, Sills articulated the principles of Polarity Therapy with a poetic and grounded voice, bringing new generations of practitioners into contact with this subtle, profound system. He understood that healing is not about fixing, but about facilitating a return to the body’s inherent intelligence and balance. Through his writing and teaching, he emphasized the sacredness of touch, the wisdom of the elements, and the power of presence as therapeutic tools.

Sills often spoke of health as an unfolding process, a dynamic interplay between structure, energy, and consciousness. In this, he echoed and expanded on Dr. Stone’s vision: that the human being is an energetic system seeking harmony through movement, breath, awareness, and loving contact.

Beyond his contributions to technique and theory, Franklyn Sills modeled what it meant to be a true therapeutic presence, one who listens deeply, touches with reverence, and meets others in the field of compassion. His influence rippled through schools, practitioners, and clients across the world.

As we remember Franklyn, we honor not only his teachings, but the quiet power of his integrity and dedication. His work continues to breathe through the hands and hearts of those he inspired.

May his journey onward be met with the same grace and stillness that he offered so many in this life.

With gratitude and remembrance,
The APTA Board of Directors

Octopuses aren’t just smart they’re genetic rebels. Scientists have discovered that these incredible creatures can edit their own RNA in real time, essentially rewriting their brain’s operating system to become smarter than evolution originally planned.

While most animals rarely alter their RNA, octopuses tweak up to 60% of their neural RNA sequences, creating thousands of unique proteins that aren’t in their original DNA. This “on-the-fly” genetic modification is heavily focused in the nervous system, meaning they’re literally upgrading their brain software as they go.

The implications are mind-blowing RNA editing lets octopuses boost their intelligence within a single lifetime, without waiting for slow generational evolution. This could explain their legendary problem-solving skills, tool use, and even complex social behaviors.

Researchers have found RNA edits linked to improved memory, learning, and sensory perception suggesting some octopuses might even be super-intelligent compared to others.

In essence, they’re running upgraded software on basic hardware, proving that intelligence in nature can be far more flexible, adaptable, and self-directed than we ever imagined. Evolution might have written the code but octopuses learned how to hack it.

“For the first time, we have identified the earliest moment when planet formation is initiated around a star other than our sun,” Melissa McClure, co-author of a paper published this week on the findings, said in a statement. Fellow author Merel van ‘t Hoff added it’s like discovering “a picture of the baby solar system.”

“We’re seeing a system that looks like what our Solar System looked like when it was just beginning to form.” https://trib.al/ZNWTayx
