BODY ORIENTED PSYCHOTHERAPY
In my experience working with people, things really don't change unless your working with the body, mind and emotions together.
By bringing an awareness of the body into psychotherapy we increase our chances of getting a great result.
Current research suggests that the mind and body are one, you can’t separate them. The stories of our lives are held in our bodies and are visible in the form of muscular tensions, the amount of energy we have and how we hold ourselves.
The body is a very accurate indicator of what someone's internal state is. Our bodies should be safe, comfortable and pleasurable places to be in. If not, something is wrong and its worth investigating.

Much of this information is drawn from Bio-energetics, a powerful body-mind technique that was created by Wilhelm Reich and Alexander Lowen.
The main premise of Body psychotherapy is; if every human being could let their ENERGY (life force, love, sexuality and emotions) stream through their body as nature intended, they would be happy. Working from this premise and starting with the body we can begin to examine how you let energy move or not move in your body.
It's usually our conditioning that prevents us from accessing a life full of vitality and robust health. Unresolved feelings and negative patterns taken on in childhood are underestimated in their ability to cause stress, sabotage relationships, happiness, finances and create disease in the body.
Sadly many people fail to live like this and life is not lived to the fullest.
Body Psychotherapy can literally save you years of wasted time. Unconscious negative patterns have no regard for your time and quality of your life and will steal what's possible from you. Having a beautiful relationship,family life, an abundant career and maintaining love and sex is all possible with a bit of work. Most people unconsciously stumble with this as parts of our own history get triggered.

BODY TYPES
Core Energetics takes into account many different body shapes, styles and types. Our bodies can be pulled around and shaped by our emotional and energetic history. As a Core Energetics practitioner I can tell from someone's body shape what their issues are likely to be.
Some people aren't grounded, some lack energy, others have too much energy and some are too grounded. Some people can't open their heart but find sexuality easy, and some can't open their sexuality, etc. We use a system of categorizing for each body type and then implement specific associated strategies to deal with it. One of the beauties about Core Energetics is that it takes into account everyone's difference and uniqueness. With each body type there is usually associated personality traits.
By working with the body and emotions in this manner we find that along with the mental health complaints of anxiety, depression, tiredness heal as well as a whole host of physical symptoms due to the flow of life energy being restored around the body.
As each issue is dealt with there is an emotional/ feeling component to it and a corresponding mental belief system. As these begin to clear people feel a stronger connection to themselves, an enhanced capacity for the flow of positive energy in their bodies and a greater sense of self esteem.
Any issue a person may have can be worked on and resolved in this way.
