Breathe: Easy Fix to Feel Better.

Breathe Through It. An Easy Way to Begin Self-Care

Some people have to work three jobs to make things work. They hardly have the time to breathe or think about “Self-Care”. Others are focused on Success and they keep pushing theselves past many personal boundaries until they are stressed and exhausted. Then there are those who just never learned that relaxation and rest is “Needed” and “Essential” to staying healthy.

We live in a society that is all about the “push”. Of course there is a place for this. However, there is also the other side to this equation. There needs to be a place where and when it’s just fine to do nothing but breathe and take a break. A long and luxurious moment of “nothing”. We also need to find a way to build healthy relationships with friends and family. Life is meant to be enjoyed.

Our bodies can revve up too much though and our nervous system takes a hit. Eventually excess stress can lead to sleeping trouble, lack of focus, skickness and headaches, and chronic pain. The list goes on.

If you are reading this, perhaps you are one of those people who feel like your nervous system has forgotten how to calm down. Perhaps you feel like you have no options but to work work work. There’s too many things that must be done.

I’l like to suggest that taking moments, precious moments with mindful care can be a good beginning. If you are running around on high drive, take a moment every hour to go inward and breathe through your nose. Begin to connect with yourself over prioritizing everything that must be done. Mindfulness in the moment can nourish and remind you of your true life work. It helps to awaken the resources and interconnection inside and out. It may remind you that there is another reality possible where you can move through life more easily and with support.

Once you have established a positive habit of breathing with awareness and centering, start to extend that time longer and longer. Thereafter, begin to notice how things in your life begin to change. Taking care of yourself is an inside job, and all this takes is intention. When we take the time, as a priority, to get centered, things change. Believe it or not, each and every one of us holds wisdom and life purpose. Begin by giving yourself the gift of time and self-realization. Empowerment begins by knowing yourself. .

Breathe and Boost Your mood and Deepen into Relaxation.

Ssh! Freedom is found in the Silence

Adyashanti on His Silence Quote

Silence. We can search for the meaning of life in our actions, as well as in our outside experiences. However, nothing true can really be found there. Only half truths. Or shades.

I love this “Silence” quote from Adyashinti because it really strikes home with me. When I drop my thoughts and my mind quiets down, it’s like the arrival of magic and mystery rolled in together. There is no stress. There is no distortion. It’s emptiness and breath arising.

Often when we start on a spiritual path, the “seeker” in us shows up. It looks all over for the answers. Glimpses of the Glory will appear and the intrigue takes us farther. But after a long road, the path finally begins to dissolve, and there is no where else to go.

Have you ever felt totally free, and alive?

How does one describe effortlessness and ease in the nothing?

How does the crumbling of your story feel?

Life is so fun and interesting!

The Body Knows How to Heal: Loving What IS..

by SharonHartnett | Jul 23, 2024 | craniosacral, Craniosacral Therapy, Energy Healing, mind body & spirit, upledger institute

To Heal is an Inside Job

To Heal Comes From Within You. People often forget that there is a deep intelligence inside the body that is alway in motion when it’s healthy. It’s our Life Force, our Qi.

If you think about it, each organ has an inherent motion, and all the other organs slip and slide along side each other with the help of the many fluids. Down to the inside and outside of the cells, there is the nourishing of the various components which are always at work, joining together, like small streams, to sustain the greater whole. There is constant communication and transmission of vital information.

So how does one access this deep intelligence? When something goes awry in the body, it only makes sense, that an outside type of influence is necessary to nudge the system back into a cycle of health.

That’s where mindful bodywork with techniques can help. Depending on the focus, a manual therapist can listen to the body, and support the Inner Wisdom based on the response.

This can be done with Craniosacral Therapy, by a Visceral Manipulation Therapist, through Acupuncture, manipulaton by a Chiropractor, etc… Most of these therapies are complimentary and work hand in hand to heal.

For people who are searching for the best tools to help activate their healing, it’s important quite often to try different therapies, and sometimes even different therapists within a modality. That’s because each therapy and each therapist’s unique contribution can influence you in a different way.

What’s unique about the Upledger Institute’s Work is that the focus is placed on addressing the Inner Physician. It takes a deep trust of the Inner Wisdom, for the ego to move out of the way, and allow the melding and healing to run the process.

If you are looking seriously to shift and change your life, discover yourself through healthy relationship. Interview and question potential therapists. Trust your own instincts, and the truth for you in the moment will tell you your next move. Realize, that Therapists can help by encouraging the healing cycle. But it’s only your Inner Resources that can make it happen.

Unlocking the Healing Energy of Your Heart After a Masectomy

by SharonHartnett | Jul 20, 2024 | Craniosacral Therapy, Energy Healing

Aftercare for Masectomy

Undergoing a masectomy can’t be easy for any woman. The healing process can take time. The hospital will send you home with all the information you need to take immediate care of yourself. Yet whether you decide to do reconstruction or not, the tissues can heal better, when you are ready, with gentle touch, listening and melding.

Once your general recovery after the mastectomy is finished, you might want to investigate bodywork. Lymphatic Massage can help with drainage and managing swelling. It’s non-invasive and can be helpful long-term. Craniosacral Therapy can also be very helpful because it focuses on the Craniosacral System, which can help enliven the nervous system functioning after surgery. It also can help to soften the fascia and bring about better circulation and sensation. Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds and holds the body together from a cellular level to all the wrapping around all the components through the web of its structure in the whole body.

I have often worked with women around the breast tissue and after surgery. Listening and melding with the tissues can support a great shift to feeling better about yourself, and how you feel. Also, with the gentle techniques, with an experienced Craniosacral Therapist, he/she can support you to process through them easier with body centered care. Most often Craniosacral Therapist get into this type of work because they have a lot of heart. Support like this can help you to feel more deeply into your heart again too.

For more information, check out www.upledger.com. When you interview any therapist, ask questions, especially about their experience and certification. It’s best to find someone who you feel will provide a safe and caring environment.

Focus on Your Potential: Live More Fully

by SharonHartnett | Jul 14, 2024 | craniosacral, Craniosacral Therapy, Energy Healing, meditation, mind body & spirit, mindfulness

Healing is All about the Potential

Experience Potential from A Craniosacral Therapist Perspective.

Our bodies are individual physical containers. They are also miraculous living skins with dynamic occurences happening inside of us all the time.

What we are made out of is beyond comprehension really.When we look at the human body, quite often we look from an antiquated view, believing that we are a body of individual parts. In fact, we are living organisms where everything is interconnected and alive with the processes of life. All of our cells, tissues and organs and fluids are inter-dependent for our well being.

Sometimes people come into a Craniosacral Session wanting to know why something happened, or explain their histories, hoping to find the answer. The problem is that the answer is not something we “know” or else it would be done. Because we would all naturally want to be healthy. Right?

Instead the whole is really not completely understood. In fact it is changing from moment to moment. The “parts” are shifting and the container is too. There is a certain mystery which plays its part within all of us. When we can mindfully touch into our core potential though, all kinds of miracles can happen. Everything is touched and changed in an instant.

This potential for healing is found by mutually waking up to awareness. The sense of “I” and the Unknown make acquaintence and swim through the currents together until they reach shore. This really isn’t something we can make happen. It’s instead a question of all the possibilities in life. Life brings you back into Wholeness.

I have found, that when people come to see me in a vulnerable position, they are often willing to open up to their Inner Potential to see what else is avialable. An open mind is a great place to live in. This Potential can be physical, emotional, a belief system, heart connection, or spiritual.

As systems meld and blend, they come together in mutual satisfaction and unity. When inner resources find each other, something wakes up deep inside. The little nudge can initiate great change in a person’s inner environment. One of my main hopes in life is that we all self-realize that we are meant to come together on so many levels of living.

This may sound abstract, maybe it is. But from what I have witnessed, healing comes from two places really:

1. Grace

2. The ability to enfold into the dynamic change potential of who we are. The more we discover our authentic self through curiosity, witnessing and our experience, the more empowered and wise become. Throw in a little compassion, and the path becomes more clear, and more easy.

I have also noticed that when we begin to listen. Truly listen to the early signs, the easier it is to move through our challenges.

The question of “Why” Doesn’t really move us anywhere. Instead, when we fall down in life, dive it’s helpful to dive into our own potential. You may need others to help you. Most likely you will at times, but the “light” , whatever you need on a soul level, is right there, a living potential. Waiting. Reconnection is so vital.

Chronic Pain: A Treatment Which Could Change Your Life

by SharonHartnett | Jul 14, 2024 | craniosacral, Craniosacral Therapy, Energy Healing, fibromyalgia, healing, upledger institute

Are You Suffering from Chronic Pain?

Chronic Pain is a persistent state When pain lasts longer than 3 months it’s considered chronic pain.

Chronic Pain shows up in the body in people dealing with; arthritis, cancer & its’ treatments, headaches & migraines, nerve damage, lyme desease, people surviving traumas, and fibroymalgia. The list goes on.

I had had clients go to their doctors and the best thing that is offered are medications. While medication has it’s place and can be helpful, there is also an integrative approach that can be more holistic. Looking at the whole person is key to helping people deal with chronic pain on a daily basis. Having a healing team to support is vital.

As a Craniosacral Therapist, what we offer is a “Listening” to the Body’s Craniosacral System. There are rhtyms and pulses that we feel. Our hands are directed toward toward the key essence places in the essence of your nervous system. To me, it feels like everyone has a deep well of resource inside that knows how to get the body feeling better. All it needs is a nudge. The body knows what to do next.

My job as a Craniosacral Therapist is to support and help your own healing abilities to bring about self-correction and self-healing. Your body on some level has chosen to go awry. And it also needs to learn to return back to health the best it can in order for you to feel better in your body.

When the internal environment of your body is functioning better through manual work, if opens a window. But also we must look at other things like life style, nutrition and the external environment in which you live too. How is your mental state? Because often people feeling chornic pain are anxious and live in depression.

I really wished we had a health care system that looked at the whole person. We deserve a better model to really see us and acknowledge our pain. But even more importantly, we need a team of people to help us to optimize our own inner resources to turn things around. Begin where you can.

I will say, as being one part of the cogency, that I do see improvement in people who come to see me quite reqularly. With the somatoemotional support they are experiencing their connection to the whole more fully. They can feel this mentally, emotioanlly and also physically.

While Chronic Pain is a continuing set of symptoms. Craniosacral Therapy can enhance a person’s wellbeing. Get support. It can change your life!
