Energy Medicine & Healing

what is energy medicine?

"In every culture and in every medical tradition before ours, healing was accomplished by moving energy."
    --Albert Szent-Györgyi, MD, Nobel Laureate in Medicine
"Energy Medicine heals the body by activating its natural healing energies and by restoring energies that have become weak, disturbed, or out of balance.   As the energies of the body come back into alignment, physical, emotional and mental health is restored. "    --  Donna Eden 

I am an Eden Energy Medicine Advanced Pracitioner (EEM-AP), having undergone four rigorous years of training.  I fell in love with Donna's program because it is empowering.  The focus of Eden Energy Medicine is not only to heal the body's energies, but also to teach individuals how to heal themselves by learning to understand and work with their own energies for a lifetime of ever increasing health and vitality.

Eden Energy Medicine is a comprehensive program that utilizes techniques from healing traditions such as acupuncture, yoga, kinesiology, and qi gong.   It is a safe, non-invasive healing modality that includes numerous simple exercises for rebalancing and maintaining healthy flow in the body's energies, with the goal of empowering clients to take control of their health and awakening the innate self-healing ability that we all possess!

I've recently published a case study documenting work  with Eden Energy Medicine on fertility issues.  Click here to see the case study on the Innersource website.

who should use energy medicine?

Everyone!  Our energy systems are the foundation of our physical, emotional and mental health,  they are the web that connects mind, body and spirit! 

Each person's energetic patterns and habits are unique, formed by a lifetime of experiences that are literally recorded in the energies of the body.  Energetic imbalances can be chronic or acute.  Here are a few of the ways that deep energy balancing can help:

  • Renew balance, harmony and well-being
  • Increase focus, clarity and productivity
  • Improve overall health and longevity
  • Lessen or correct aches, pains, illness and disease
  • Create deeper happiness, satisfaction and joy

When imbalances persist for too long, they can turn into chronic issues.  This is often the case for stress related imbalances.  Energy Medicine is particularly good for auto-immune issues, which have a stress-imbalance at the root that can be corrected over time.

The good news is that with Energy Medicine chronic imbalances can be brought back into balance!

what do we do in a session?

In an Energy Medicine session we assess the state of the different systems and work to restore balance in the area that is asking for attention.  To do this, I may work on any of the systems - the meridians, the chakras, the aura, the Radiant Circuits (Strange Flows in Chinese Medicine), the Electrics, The Five Elements, the Celtic Weave and the Grid.  Regression sessions are also an option and include rebalancing of the systems in need of work.

what should I expect in a first session?

In an Initial Assessment Session you can expect  2 hrs of individual attention!  We will review health history and emotional history, assess your energies, identify imbalances in the flow of energy and the overall system and most importantly, begin a dialogue with your energy system to find out what it needs most in order to move you towards improved physical, emotional and spiritual health.  I will teach you Donna Eden's Daily Routine, a series of simple exercises to do at home to improve overall energy patterns and vitality. 

Techniques for moving and balancing energies may include tapping, rubbing or holding specific energy points (acupoints) on the skin, and tracing or swirling the hand over the skin along specific energy pathways.  
Follow up sessions are 90 min. and include assessment of progress and more corrections and exercises for home to accompany changes in the system.

In addition to improving emotional and physical health, clients often find energy medicine sessions to be deeply relaxing and restorative, and leave feeling refreshed and renewed!

soul level healing:

When we work on the energy body we inevitably work on all levels of the self, from the purely physical to the emotional and spiritual.  Often, as my clients progress with the work, lessons around personal evolution and karmic issues will present themselves.  These types of issues can show up in any of the energy systems, and tend to relate to current situations/issues the individual is working on.  However, this is especially true of grid and regression sessions, which take us fully into the realm of soul-level healing.
No pun intended!  But they do, and they work so well together!  If you are not familiar with EFT please scroll to the bottom of this page to read more about this exciting technique from Energy Psychology.   When a client is ready to eliminate old habits and patterns using EFT, I am happy to oblige.  I have been using EFT on myself since 2009 and with clients since 2012, and it never ceases to amaze me!  I like to combine the two in a standard 90 min. energy session, spending 60 min. on EFT, and then 30 min. helping the body to integrate changes and remove what has been released with energy balancing.   I can also do a one hour session that is just EFT.  This can be intense work, but it's so worth it!

My most recent certification is in Matrix Reimprinting (MR), an exciting new technique that takes EFT to the quantum level.  I trained in 2018 with Karl Dawson, an EFT Master, who developed MR about 10 years ago.  It can effectively address the remnants of issues that EFT alone cannot resolve, and is wonderful for working on trauma without needing to go back through the intensity of the events.

how many sessions will I need?

That depends on the state of your energies! 
Anyone with a chronic condition should expect to do at least four sessions.  A good pace for most people is every other week.  Some may require more, such as those with auto-immune disorders or long term chronic conditions.  Some will require less, such as those with the beginnings of stress imbalances, or who just 'don't feel like themselves'.  There is no way to know until we check your energies.  The biggest determinant in how many sessions you need is how much work you are willing to do at home!  If you follow the 'at home' exercises you are given, your energies will build new habits much more quickly, reducing the need for sessions.

your commitment:

Energy Medicine does not function like a pill, it takes time and effort to repattern your energies.  Your commitment to helping yourself is the biggest factor in your outcome!  

Most people find learning about their energies to be fascinating and well worth the effort!

what are EFT and Energy Psychology?

EFT stands for Emotional Freedom Technique, an energy psychology intervention developed by Gary Craig, which has its roots in Thought Field Therapy and Meridian Tapping.  It is perhaps the most widely known self help technique in our culture today, because of it's effectiveness in resolving traumas, phobias, limiting beliefs, specific and general anxiety, and much more, often in one or two sessions and without recurrence.   It is also increasingly being used in the field of performance enhancement.  See www.emofree.com, and the video below for more information.

Energy Psychology is an emergent field in the discipline of psychology, and was officially recognized by the APA  in 2012.  It encompasses many different methods and techniques that focus on shifting the energies held in the body around past traumas and debilitating beliefs.  It is an exciting and rapidly expanding field.  See www.energypsych.org for more information.

I offer EFT as part of treatment in Energy Medicine sessions when it is apparent that a belief or trauma must be addressed in order for the energies in the body to shift.  I can also do EFT sessions, but want to be clear about my scope of practice.  I am not a licensed mental health professional and therefore am cautious about the nature of the problem being addressed. 

Issues I will work on with EFT:
limiting beliefs
phobias (simple, not complex - ie, fear of dogs
or public speaking vs multiple connected phobias related to past
physical/emotional trauma)
performance anxiety/peak performance
weight loss
eating disorders
physical issues
TMJ and clenching/grinding of teeth
just about anything that is not related to severe trauma

Issues I will not work on with EFT:
PTSD
anything related to past abuse - sexual, physical or emotional
