The Body as Ultimate Healer

Posted by Dalida Turkovic - October 30th, 2009

The heart’s field is a carrier of emotional information and a mediator of bio-electromagnetic communication, within and outside the body. Research shows our heart’s field changes distinctly as we experience different emotions. It is registered in people’s brains around us and apparently is capable of affecting cells, water and DNA studied in vitro.

Do you know how fear, sadness, grief, happiness and joy feel like? Where in your body do you feel these emotions? Which color are they? Are they soft, hard, smooth or piercing? What is the sound they produce?

Tap into the wisdom of your body, feel the emotions, don’t run away from them. Observe how they move through your body.  Each emotional response carries a message. Remaining present and attuned with that message opens the door to awareness, growth and learning.

We are organizing a workshop The Body as Ultimate Healer: The Power of Somatic Experiencing with Dr Maggie Phillips. For more information check www.small-steps-coaching.com. Looking forward to see you there.

Identity

Posted by Dalida Turkovic - October 29th, 2009

Studies showed that individuals who had been isolated from their familiar social and cultural environment, became neurotic. This shows that when those individuals had no object to identify their darker emotions with, they began to see these things in themselves that which they refused to recognize before, and were unaware of why they appeared and how to copeLilli, 1956; Grunebaum, 1960; Heran, 1953

What/Who do you identify with? Your job? Your family? Your country? Your car, friends, pets?

Who would you be on a deserted island? What would happen to your identity if you were in jail?

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.
