“I never knew that was there!”

Posted on by

This weekend (August 21/22 2010) I just completed running another Energy Body Psychotherapy Workshop with eight amazing participants. (Plus one fantastic assistant.) The bond, safety and caring created by the whole group was beautiful to be part of and experience. And the releases that each and everyone of them freed up in themselves was powerful and deeply moving.

One of the comments that came up regularly after a deep process was “I never knew that was there”.

I’ve heard this a lot over the years from clients. And it again highlights how well we as human beings are able to suppress and hide deep emotional wounds, from ourselves. So we go about our lives thinking we are okay because we are functional, but deep down the nagging problems, behaviours, dramas, reactions and diseases that we can’t shake off, are still there.

Accessing this core material requires much deeper work, and it requires getting deeply in touch with the body inside. Doing this with just talking doesn’t do it for a lot of people. To get deep inside your body, you must engage it fully. That means adding sound, movement, feeling, touch, energy and contact with the intellect thinking.  Doing this means often, we are awakening the inner child within. Accessing and awakening the younger part of your nervous system so you can finally heal yourself where it counts.

So if you do still have nagging problems after many years of working on yourself. Just know that deep within you there is a layer or two that is still active and still influencing your current behaviour. And it may be time to go much deeper.

Energy Body Psychotherapy Workshop

Another Energy Body Psychotherapy weekend workshop completed recently that I ran on July 24/25 2010. The workshop was booked out with the maximum of eight people. It went very well. All eight were able to let go and release some very deeply held repressed parts of themselves which stopped them from feeling fully alive and embodied.

The workshop starts with some education on how we block feelings and what happens when we release them. I cover in detail the process the body goes through and why people develop deep unconscious blocks over time which leads to – feeling less authentic in their life and, if left untreated for too long, disease.

This is followed by paired exercises to help participants begin to feel comfortable with each other as well as begin to deepen into themselves. The Sunday is more enlivening and more expressive with more paired work as we go even deeper. The Sunday afternoon I work with each participant individually with the support of the rest of the group.

This is very deep and powerful work and very life transforming. I always feel deeply blessed to be part of a person’s journey as they take the courage to let go and free themselves.

The workshop combines all my background in Radix work, Somatics, Trauma Release Therapy, Energy Healing and other training and techniques brought in as required. Needless to say I highly recommend it!
