HEALING

A survivor's perspective.  For years I developed the brain pathways that are now an underlying operating system.  It will take some time to address the Belief System (B.S.) waiting to be turned back on by relationships, triggers or stimulants.  

​

My experiences and addictions are part of a neurodegenerative condition that will override my best intentions and reasoning.  

This toxic neurological condition will feel normal, but I had to learn feelings are not facts.  We are not always aware of how pain affects us.

 

What happens to our bodies is tied to our emotions, processing, focus, analysis and productivity.

​

My story in healing through movement came in 2000, when I was working with my son, Christian, who was dealing with severe developmental issues.  The journey we discovered was the path of neurodevelopment, which required participation in specific exercises that created wholeness in undeveloped nerve pathways throughout my son's nervous system. 

​

Because he had significant delays, I had to do the exercises alongside and at times moving his limbs for him.  Each exercise targeted a precise area of function; pupillary response, feeling pain appropriately, auditory and olfactory  issues, hyper and hypo sensitivities to name a few.

​

As I worked with him, I realized my own damaged nervous system was being healed.  Instead of being restricted, I was being released in creativity - writing and poetry, and movement became a means of graceful expression and celebration of life!

​

In cooperation with our healing progress, I developed trauma specific programs:

 

"Begin Again Through Art" to unlock and heal trauma through painting.

"Begin Again Through Movement" to unlock and heal trauma stored through the body. 

"Begin Again Through Poetry" to unlock and heal trauma through written inspiration and affirmations.
