24.01.2022 So true and the trusting of the self to bring that pain into awareness so that the somatic experience can be cleared slowly and surely using journalling, focusing & tapping.

22.01.2022 As long as we have a body, there will be shadow. The goal isn’t to get rid of the shadow or even to fully integrate it, as its emanations are being ever cre...ated by way of psychic movement and creativity. Rather, to illuminate and engage it more consciously, as partner, emissary, even lover. While at times it may appear as enemy, underneath the disguise the ally is revealed. It is only through cultivating a relationship with it that we will not project its contents onto others or into the world to allow it to take its rightful place in the larger ecology of what we are, as one voice or figure among many. In this way its wrathful intelligence can find its way here. The shadow is not some worthless, neurotic repository of unenlightened thoughts, feelings, and impulses, but hidden expressions of wisdom, creativity, and soul, awaiting redemption and the light of awareness. It is through the very natural and human process of projection that we come to know disavowed and previously undisclosed parts of ourselves, pieces of soul that have fallen out of awareness or have not yet found a proper portal for emergence. That which we are unable to access, dancing and twirling within the personal and archetypal psyche, will make itself known as it is evoked in another or enacted within the relational field. The purpose of shadow work is not to eliminate shadow. Shadow is not pathology but is path. Photo by Anja/ cocoparisienne

21.01.2022 At times, you may be asked to sit with another who has been touched by the darkness. To allow them to fall apart in your arms, unravel, be without hope, and fee...l lost. You may sense there is some sort of wisdom unfolding, but it is chaotic, uncertain, and not easy to stay with. While it is natural to want to do whatever you can to help them feel better, listen carefully to what it is they are truly asking for. Extend to them a calm, regulated nervous system where their experience can be validated and held, exactly as it is. Ensure them with words and with your presence that they need not "get over it," "accept everything as it is," shift into a "higher vibration," "stay in the present," be cured, transformed, or "healed" in order for you to stay close. To provide such an environment for another, you must first offer safe passage for the unmetabolized in yourself: the unmet sadness, abandoned shame, discarded grief, disavowed hopelessness, and deserted aloneness. If not, you may find yourself rushing to talk the other out of their experience, urgently spinning to relieve them of their feelings as a way to cut into your own anxiety and discomfort. All the while subtly and unconsciously disavowing the raging intelligence buried within the dark. Together with them, make the commitment to not pathologize their experience. Pain is not pathology. Hopelessness is not pathology. Grief is not pathology. Shame and rage are not pathology. They are path. Seed this wisdom into the relational field and watch in awe as a new world unfolds. As you attune to the "other" in front of you as well as to the alchemical "other" within feel the creative flow of love as it fills the space between, crafting you both as vessels of sanctuary for the pieces of the broken world, for the shards of confusion, and for the crumbled hopes and dreams that have dissolved in front of your eyes. Honor the holy truth that the forms that love take will always fall apart for this is their nature in order that they may come back together in more integrated and cohesive ways. Within the aliveness of the relational field despite the pain of the present, the traumas of the past, and the broken dreams of the future you may see that it was only love after all, taking whatever form it must so that it may unfold itself into this world, in ways the mind may never understand. Please do whatever you can to help others in whatever way you are able: attune to their emotional experience such that they feel felt, listen carefully to what they are saying, and how they are making meaning of their lives. Slow way down, bracket your favorite psychological and spiritual jargon and theories, and allow yourself to be curious about how they are making sense of their experience. Feed them, hold them, speak kindly to them, provide sanctuary and safe passage for soul to disclose its mysteries. And remind them that love is here and is alive.

17.01.2022 In close personal relationships, it is important to emphasize a secure attachment bond and the co-regulation of challenging emotional states. To practice kindne...ss toward our lovers and friends, listen to the way they are making sense of their experience, attune to what they are feeling, and hold them during difficult times. It is also essential to be on the lookout for unhealthy fusion, honoring the reality that we are not only connected, but also separate. Any secure attachment must include healthy differentiation, where at times the most skillful activity will be to establish firm boundaries, assert our independence, privilege our own personal integrity, and allow the other to struggle with feelings of aloneness, uncertainty, and confusion. At times we will disappoint those we love, and this will activate our historic core vulnerabilities and theirs. For many of us, disappointing another is just not safe, and we will do whatever possible to ensure they do not come face to face with the surging material of their unlived life. But allowing them to meet the reality of their own heart is an act of profound mercy and compassion. While transpersonally we can speak about unity and oneness, within the relative we are also distinct, with our own histories and ways of organizing our experience. Each with our own fate and relationship with the divine, our own paths to travel; our own unique ways entering the mystery. To dissolve these differences into some homogenized spiritual middle does not honor the sacredness of form. If we do not consciously explore the reality of our separateness, it will inevitably manifest in less than conscious ways, unleashing unmetabolized shadow into the relational field. Like all work of depth, this art form evolves slowly, as it marinates in the alchemical vessel of the body. May we be kind to our partners as we navigate this territory especially during these challenging times honoring the vehicle of intimacy as one of the most provocative, sacred, and holy that we have in our modern world.

12.01.2022 Does EFT Tapping Help in the Workplace? This study assessed psychological indicators in business owners over 50 years old and whose companies grossed US$9 milli...on or more annually. Participants attended a daylong seminar combining psychoeducation with EFT delivered in small group format using a protocol known as Borrowing Benefits. All members of each group used EFT while witnessing sessions conducted by a certified Clinical EFT practitioner. After treatment, the severity of psychological symptoms declined as indicated. The study focused on EFT’s immediate stress-reduction effects and did not include a follow-up assessment. However, consistent with the literature on Borrowing Benefits, EFT produced large reductions in stress symptoms when delivered in group format. As businesses seek methods of reducing stress in professional settings, Clinical EFT groups offer a fast and effective technique to improve both the physical and psychological dimensions of employee well-being.

10.01.2022 Just wanted to share what my workbook process has lead me to... To come back to my creativity and love of colour.

04.01.2022 This book was one of the formative resources for my healing practice.

02.01.2022 Emotional-attunement the holding and metabolizing of emotion is a poetic activity and a creative function within the soul. Emotion, by its very nature, is ...integrative, implying a connectivity between psyche and soma. There are many types of integration (bilateral, vertical, narrative) but perhaps the most basic is that of body and mind. Emotion is largely a somatic experience, meaning it manifests in the body and requires conscious embodiment to digest. Having an emotion and metabolizing it in an embodied way are not necessarily the same thing. We can have an emotion, but not integrate it which is akin to a psychic sort of leaky gut where its nutrients are only partially received. We might say it is the enzyme of embodied awareness that allows for the nourishment to filter through consciousness. Usually when we speak about emotion we are not only referring to somatic experience, but to an intermingling of the somatic with left-brain narrative and/or right-brain image. This blending is alchemical. With trauma, there is often a disconnection between body and mind. For example, we might experience intense feeling in the body, but with no linkage as to what it’s all about; there is no coherent or integrated narrative. In large part, this is due to the fact that trauma inhibits the functioning of the hippocampus, the part of the brain that records memory in an explicit, coherent, and retrievable way. Or we may be flooded with dysregulating thoughts and images, but there is no connection with what is happening in the body. Trauma, then, which we all know to some degree, is that condition of disconnection. Befriending, or healing, would be the process of re-connection. Re-association where there has been dis-association. In a moment of emotional activation, when there is a neuroception of unsafety, it can be helpful to start in the body. First, providing a home for the raw sensations to be held for a few seconds. Back online and regulated, we can then link those sensations with the subtle narrative or perceptual lens, building resource and resilience. And in this way the scaffolding of love is woven.

01.01.2022 Yes! When tapping many things might present (the onion peeling!) - and you can feel tired, shattered, or even like cotton wool! You can pause and come back to ...tapping and give yourself a rest. It is useful to 'box up' unfinished tapping with a round or two on - "even though this is not quite finished yet, I will come back to it later, and I am putting it in a box, sealed shut until then" (reminder phrase = it's in a box tightly sealed). Works a treat. So look after yourself in the process.
