Moving Forward

Since the beginning of the year a lot of different opportunities have presented themselves to me.  I am quite a late newcomer to the field of energy therapies which started for myself with Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).  Having spent most of my career in orthodox mental health within the NHS, albeit as an Occupational Therapist,  I am now bringing into my own practice, more intuitive and energetic ways of working.
EFT works with our meridian pathways which carry our energy within our bodies, a bit like our vascular and nervous system pathways.  Any trauma to the body both physically and mentally can cause blockages to that energy and subsequent side effects of stress, low mood, anxiety to name but a few can occur.  Tapping on various points of the meridians can reduce the intensity of the emotions whilst at the same time reframing the experience of the difficult issues.  Time and again I remain astounded by how gentle yet highly effective this technique can be.  The great thing also is that you can be taught how to use it for yourself.

Like any credible and genuine therapist I continue to work on myself and am recently in the middle of my Level 3 Practitioner course in EFT.  Alongside this I have been introduced to Reiki, a healing intervention again using the body’s energy.  I am at a very early stage in my training but I’m noticing how much calmer, intuitive and peaceful I am feeling.  This type of therapy has been around for centuries but modern life has contributed to shutting us off from intuition and sensitivity.  We are all energy as is every living thing but we can miss so much as for most of the time we very much live in our heads.  How often do we play out scenarios or project what is going to happen in our minds?

Why not bring yourself back to the present moment if only for a few moments and really experience what is going on for you?

 I hope to go on and gain a qualification in Reiki to enhance the treatment and interventions that I already do within my work – so not only benefiting myself but my clients too.
