Emotional Body Healing

Emotional Body Healing

This article is a short version of a booklet I wrote Hello, My Pain, Welcome. What Can I Do For You? Introduction into Emotional Body Healing. With this article I will guide you through the technique of Emotional Body Healing the way I practice it now. The suggestions to the client are in bold print, followed by my explanations. I start a session by getting the client relaxed and myself, too. Here are the steps: Lie down or sit down very comfortably. A session can be done anywhere. If someone comes for a treatment for the first time, I suggest finding a surrounding that will support relaxation and a feeling of safety and comfort. When I work with somebody who has already had a few sessions I can work in a cafe, in a park, or any other location in the world Tune into your body and your emotions. Next I ask my client to go with her attention to the inside, to feel and to sense inside her body. Feel inside your body and feel if something is noticeable or perceptible, a body feeling or an emotional feeling, and then describe it to me. The question is phrased What do you feel? not, How do you feel? In my experience clients sometimes hide behind good as an answer to how they feel, whereas to what do you feel? there is hardly a hiding place. Once the client tells me about her feeling, if it is an emotion like anger or grief I ask, Where in the body does this feeling live? and later on, What does it look like? I have found that this method helps my clients to start seeing inside, to really get in contact with their feelings. It is easier to connect to the fear thats a rock in the middle of my stomach than just my fear. If I do not get an answer right away I wait patiently and then add: Even the smallest, slightest feeling, perhaps just a tickle in your little toe, is a signal. Please describe to me what you feel.
