Barbara and Post-Trauma Healing
|
||
|
Reiki's healing energy—with or without touch—gave me a powerful "tool," and using it with my clients resulted in profound healings. As I understood more about how Body-Mind-Spirit dis-integrates during trauma, I wanted to provide help for re-integration to occur at more profound levels. I experienced and teach Re-Parenting: what do all children need? what was healthy/neglectful/abusive? what are effects of healthy/unhealthy parenting; and, as adults, how can clients heal themselves? I also teach Reiki; breathing & relaxation techniques; imagery, visualization, gentle trance; sound; movement re-education, and gentle "repatterning"; and how to identify and safely express emotions/feelings. With each client, I learn something new that may be of help to another. I am deeply grateful for this knowledge. I believe that we all have been wounded and can be healed. We also wound others and can help each other heal. We all "breathe the same air." Together we can heal each other and our planet. What do you need? May I help you? Are
you ready? |

During
the early1980's, women and men were increasingly remembering, speaking
of and seeking help to heal from traumas. I learned that 1 in 4 girls,
1 in 5 boys had been sexually abused by the age of 18. Although I was
a therapeutic massage therapist, I felt "led" to listen to and counsel
women and men who desperately needed help recovering and healing.
