I try not to be prescriptive in the work that I do. My job isn’t to find a problem in a person and offer five ways to resolve it. We all resolve things in our own ways and in our own time.
Instead, I pick up on what I’ve only ever been able to describe as energy. More specifically, the imprint that surrounds moments in a person’s life. Sometimes that imprint is trauma. Sometimes it’s beauty.
I lead clients on a kind of archaeological dig into their deep consciousness. We uncover a moment and handle it like an object we can hold in our hands and study together. I describe what I see and what I feel physically and emotionally. These aren’t my feelings. They belong to the client. I’m there to help them see.
People sometimes ask why we would drag the lake for evidence of pain when the water feels calm. Won’t that just cause more pain?
Actually, no.
When moments are presented like objects we can study, information comes with them. You begin to see how those moments affect the present. Pain plants a seed. That seed grows into a tree with a million branches. If you can walk the branch all the way back to the seed, you begin to loosen the grip those patterns have on your life.
I think of it like skimming debris from the deep end of a pool. We pull things up, look at how they clouded the water, and then we don’t throw them back in. We let them be released and transformed.
Once you see something, you can’t unsee it.
That’s the gift.
Awareness unlocks the door. It doesn’t push you through. It simply lets you see that the door has been open all along.
