A faster path to healing and transformation
In my previous post, I talked about using a practice called authentic movement to unlock the wealth of healing and self-knowledge that our body holds.
Today, I want you to hear from one of my students who has experienced the kind of transformation that comes with an authentic movement practice.
Watch sue talking here:
Sue says: “I feel a release. I definitely feel like I pulled something out of me that needed to come out. The other work I do on myself is just in my brain so this thing of learning to practice with my body and not my brain - I’m very excited about that potential to jumpstart all the other work I do on myself”.
I think that the excitement that is so apparent in Sue’s testimonial and her sense of new possibilities comes from her experience with the work she's done with us in Telling Your Body’s Story (TYBS) which allowed her to connect to parts of herself that she hasn’t been in touch with as much and from knowing that none of the other more cognitive-centered therapeutic modalities provide such direct access to the rich materials that are stored in the body, because most of them do not put any focus on body awareness as a tool for exploring life issues.
When you have access to more and more parts of yourself, so much more is possible in terms of realizing your full potential and getting exactly the life you want because our potential includes not just our thoughts, but also our ability to sense and feel things in the body, an ability that we get cut off from very early on because of our conditioning. I don’t know about you my friend, but to me, there is nothing more exciting than having my full self back.
I find it very interesting that some of my students and clients are saying, once they have tried this kind of work that they might be getting ready to let go of some of the other practices. I think it’s because they can tell that this work provides a faster track to healing and transformation as well as complementing other kinds of healing and therapy.
