COUNSELING METHOD
Unless you are scheduling a Daily Elixir consultation, a Life Path Reading is a pre-requisite and essential intake procedure forthose interested in transformation counseling. It will reveal your purpose, past and current issues, and how to manifest personal fulfillment. This intake will eliminate months of sessions normally dedicated to gathering information. A 30-year practitioner, counseling integrates western Psychoanalytic Wisdom with Buddhist Psychology. This means therapy involves 3 levels of process: Insight, Flooding and Transformation.
INSIGHT - Individuals or couples can learn to recognize and explore their inner life or outer life challenges. For example: absence of personal fulfillment, feelings of displacement; not fitting in, and the bumps in the road, which effects everyone. Sudden crises, loss of work, friends or passage of dear ones are also compassionately held in a healing space. Insight techniques include: dream analysis, setting boundaries for direct and honest communication, leadership skills, and time management.
FLOODING - Emotional pain is an unavoidable human experience and leads us to ask: "How do I handle emotions, anxiety and fears?" Likewise, those suffering from trauma and loss need an immediate support for primordial emotions and the dark abyss that seems to drag us down into the black pit of no return. The first step in any healing quest is learning how to let go of judgment. Flooding offers an alternative to the destructive behaviors of dwelling in pain or the converse, suppression and denial of pain. There are healthy ways to fully experience the entire spectrum of emotion from anger, fear, and grief to hopelessness. It depends on recognizing that all emotions belong to you and are not caused by, or due to the behavior of others. When we let go of self-justification, blame and or victim consciousness we are free to fully experience what is in our hearts.
TRANSFORMATION - Knowing your patterns, fully experiencing your emotions prepares you for transformation. Change can never happen in the mind alone. You can not convince yourself to be otherwise. But,..there are ancient and non-sectarian awareness methods, which include meditation, healing breath, mantra recitation (ancient sounds), and visualizations that have the power to transform all obstacles into our aspirations or wishes for a productive, creative and loving existence. You can awaken vitality, creativity, good relations and sense of purpose.
