Wholeness is Close at Hand
My tagline for Deep River Healing is ‘wholeness lives in the undercurrents.’ Through my own varied experiences of healing - hypnotherapy, Reiki, somatic counseling, shamanic journeys, acupuncture, bodywork, BodyTalk, Continuum Movement, biodynamic craniosacral therapy, energy medicine, Medicine Journeys, Vision Quests, etc. - I’ve come to trust that there is always health and help available to those who ask and are willing to reconnect to their own wholeness.
I believe we each come into the world from wholeness and return to wholeness at the end of our lives. In between, we walk the path of perfectly imperfect humans. We seek opportunities within crises in order to grow. But innate wholeness is our constant companion, and there are blissful moments when we consciously embody wholeness. I’m here to share in those healing moments.
In energy medicine, I compare my client’s template of wholeness, their ideal healthy energy anatomy blueprint, to what they are currently experiencing. I ask my client’s higher wisdom what needs to be repatterned and repaired and then make it so. There is always an unshakable wholeness to draw upon to refresh the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies.
In Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, the understanding is that at any given moment the body is held in patterns of greatest healing possible. This may be hard to believe when we are in pain. But that discomfort leads us to seek help.
I as the practitioner help by observing current conditions and inviting more stillness and spaciousness. More life force energy or potency flows into the system and circulates better to resolve stuck places of holding. Wholeness is close at hand, found in the quiet depths beneath the turbulence of everyday life. It’s where we direct our awareness, intention, and attention.
These are two of my modalities, ways that I help my clients access wholeness. Some people believe in a fatal flaw, an original sin, a fall from grace. I do not, preferring what theologian Matthew Fox calls ‘Original Blessing.’ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “The arc of the moral universe is long, but bends towards justice.” Likewise, our longing for wholeness leads us to every bit of healing available in a lifelong process of embodiment.
