I will be your guide and support, where, in complete safety, with total confidentiality, you remember, and get in touch through deep breathing, with whatever is in the way of living a fulfilled life.
With you permission I use my hands intuitively in a healing touch and sometimes do bodywork. There is no judgment or evaluation of your process, nor the digging up of the past with stories.
"Take a pick axe and break apart your stony self. The hearts matrix is glutted with rubies. Springs of laughter are buried in your chest." Rumi
In a session there is no expectation or pressure to release emotional energy in a cathartic way, however it is completely safe and welcome, and neither judged nor evaluated. Feelings are neither good or bad, nor right or wrong, they just are! All that you are asked to do is to breathe deeply and naturally during the whole session with my guidance and pay attention to what is going on in your body, not your head. It is not unusual to feel nothing for quite some time. Being numb is often an indication of a very strong feeling nature that needed extra protection. In nature the softest animals have the hardest shells (turtle, lobster, crab, etc.)
"The one who fears suffering is already suffering from what he fears." Michel de Montaigne
Breathing gets us in touch with powerful buried emotions ( see Breathe and Heal for an explanation). Emotion – from the Latin word emovere – means “content that wants to move out”. Old emotional energy is held in the musculature and cells of the body and it eventually makes us ill or unhappy until we release it.
It is important to learn and understand that no one can make us feel anything that is not already stored within us. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross said: "If an upset lasts longer than 30 seconds, it is old stuff that is surfacing."
“Bring forth what is inside of you and
what you bring forth will heal you.
Don’t bring forth what’s inside of you,
and what is inside of you, will destroy you”.
St Thomas Aquinas (Dead Sea Scrolls)
You will also learn about emotional triggers, enlightened communication, and accountability.
The session ends naturally and you will feel more integrated when you leave. I will give you some homework as well. After a session a client often looks ten years younger, looks radiant, feels relief, feels lighter and clearer, and sometimes feels tired in a contented way (similar to reaching the summit of a steep climb) because it is a cleansing, clearing and undoing process. The long term gifts of using this practice are described here.
