But wait, does holistic healing fix the problem?
To answer that, no it doesn’t. However, it does help us find ways to release and heal the body, heart, mind, and spirit. We teach the body to let go – to unravel the habitual mental loops while opening up the heart space and reconnecting with our body’s energy more “wholly”.
Ultimately empowering ourselves in love, intimacy, sexuality, embodiment, and life mastery.
So, why include the body?
Breathe! Everything begins with the breath.
Connecting with the breath allows for a greater sense of relaxation, which can also create greater connection and alignment. This encourages habitual tension to be released allowing for easier integration of body, heart, mind, and spirit.
Different breathing techniques – connecting the inhale with the exhale – are used to assist clients in relaxing the body. In return, clients better understand and release habitual patterns.
Breathing also helps a client to connect more deeply to their body. This in turn, allows a space where thoughts, memories, feelings, or blocks that have been held down, be able to rise to the surface and be released.
Our physical bodies are channels for our own innate wisdom…
The body speaks through tension, aches, relaxation, and pleasure. As a result, when movement and physical awareness practices are integrated into sessions, a more holistic manner of healing occurs.
This leads us to transform and liberate ourselves from the retelling of old stories that no longer serve us — those stories that keep us stuck in negative behavioral and relationship patterns.
Clients learn to tune in to the body’s cues as a response to their emotional, mental, and behavioral states. Tics, aches, sensation, and pings, along with specific movement, allows the client to develop a keener sense of self-awareness and observation.
This assists clients in replacing unwanted and unproductive emotional, mental, and behavioral patterns. Ultimately healing the whole of the person.
Sensuality and Sexuality
The practice that engages and helps us embody our innately sensual body is sensuality. Sensuality helps us align and integrate the body, heart, mind, and spirit, which creates a connection to the Divine within.
Sexuality, then, is the expression of this alignment. Sexuality is the expression that supports us in desiring an intimate connection with others.
