One of the questions I often get asked regarding Massage-
“How much do I need to come in and see you”?
This is a delicate question because most people would benefit greatly from getting 1-2 massages a week. Personally, I know that if I could… I’d get a massage every week, acupuncture, have a personal trainer and a cook that makes organic healthy great tasting meals each day:) However, many services are not covered by insurance, and many people these days are very busy.
So to be realistic- what I recommend is that one prioritizes time and finances regarding health and wellness. Some of the ways to look at this are:
- Rate yourself from 1-10 regarding your pain level. If you are in a lot of pain, you may want to come in twice a week. Massage and bodywork can work wonders for relieving pain. The more work you receive, the better you’ll feel in most cases. Also remember, that while your pain levels most likely will decrease with each session, that if you have been putting off your health challenges for long time, it might take a while to get healthier again. For example- to work with postural alignment issues, count on the basic 10 sessions for a good foundation at 90 minutes a pop.
- Finances are an important part of everyday life. Yet I do see people who go out to eat and drop $75.00 for a meal, but look for the cheapest massage deal they can find. Remember that you usually get what you pay for. If you are looking for a professional massage therapist with a lot of experience in bodywork, expect to budget for the best. After all, you do deserve to have your needs met, and actually exceeded. Someone who works at a big office for a low price is usually right out of school and doesn’t have the same qualifications as someone who has been practicing for 15 years.
- Often people wait until they are in pain before they get massage. If you can afford it, treat yourself to some massage and bodywork bi-weekly or monthly just to stay feeling more fit and flexible. It’s much easier to move back into health when you haven’t strayed far. Being proactive in anything is smart.
- Interview therapists. Each therapist is unique and has an array of different tools that they use to best serve their clients. Make sure that your Massage Therapist listens well and is educated about how they can help. Some protocols call for 10 sessions, some are based on your needs. But a good therapist will give you a general idea of a treatment plan that you can both agree to.
- I often give my clients exercises or homework to do when they go home. If your budget is tight and you don’t have the means for this type of self-care on a regular basis- make sure you are doing some type of lengthening and opening exercise like yoga, pilates, gyrotonics, Feldenkrais etc… All of these help you to strengthen your core while releasing restrictions in the body. If you can do both, that is wonderful.
Your health is important. Too many people tend to ignore symptoms of pain and discomfort. Begin listening to your body when you are young. Eat well, Exercise, Stay hydrated, and get plenty of rest. As soon as you start to feel yourself losing balance, energy, or strength, turn it around by finding a local therapist near you to help you feel your best. Your intuition and self-mindful awareness will tell you what you need to do.
Warmly,

Brennan Healing Science© is a powerful tool that has helped thousands of people to shift out of painful life paradigms into more acceptance and a compassionate state of being.

In the auric field: Chakras – Sanskrit for “circles” or “wheels” – there are energy centers which can become blocked or unbalanced. This can lead to physical illness or other forms of dis-ease. These can be worked with by restructuring, clearing, charging and other methods that bring the chakras back into health. The dimension of hara is the level of intention which can be strengthened and aligned, and core star is the spark of divine essence in each of us. Reconnecting to this Source is magical and life changing. Working with these dimensions of human experience can help you find your soul’s task and live with a clear connection to your own divine qualities.

Inwardly we can change our Reality.
We can do this by questioning our beliefs, trying new things while being mindful of ourselves, and by creating positive new intentions and following through.
Craniosacral Therapy
We can’t change our own world by blaming others, living in habits or denying the truth.
If we want to know reality, the way we identify with life needs to change. And when our own personal negative filters dissolves, reality becomes more clear in our outer relationships. The truth is revealed.
If you are stuck… and want to move out of that place- call Sharon Hartnett LMT and CST at (613) 372-6598.
With a longstanding practice in Brennan Healing Science and Craniosacral Therapy, The Work by Byron Katie, Structural Integration, she has helped others to grow and evolve into their potential.

Barbara Brennan’s School is situated in the South of Florida.
It moved there many years ago because Barbara Brennan wanted to find a location where Brennan Healing Science® could be learned in a college environment. It was her dream to make this work mainstream and used in a professional manner.
Since that time, many people from around the world have continued to attend, making this a Unique Environment to learn about Energy Dynamics and various Healing techniques. The program involves a four year commitment to graduate with the fundamentals of Brennan Healing Science® used as its foundation. The curriculum is all encompassing and is set up to help people with personal evolution as well as in helping people to bring healing into their lives, their careers, and in service to the world.
Brennan Professional Healers
What is gained from this experience is so much more than you could ever imagine. The many thousands of students who graduated from the school can attest to this. From the moment you enter into the beautiful vessel of Light called the Barbara Brennan School, you can count on being held and supported in a healing and growing container to evolve into the best you can be. The community is close-knit, and immediately one feels like part of the family and connected to the greater whole… from the beginning students from over 35 years ago, to the students there now, studying and participating in this program is only improved from one generation to the next. There is a common thread that all the students live with in their commitment to complete their personal and spiritual work that is rarely found elsewhere. This community of the Sacred Human Heart is something that will touch you in the deepest places.
Beyond the Awakening Skills and other changes one experiences, the students also learn to work with clients. This begins with first year students learning how to ground and explore their inner landscapes while being in contact with their clients. It is a good time to learn more about the Self, belief systems, but also how to hold color vibrations, and hold the lower levels of the fields. It is a wonderful time to strengthen the core through nourishment and nurture and self-inquiry. The second year takes the student even deeper. This is the year that relationships become key in the exploration process. For those interested in astral work, this is an adventure. Some of the skills that are learned are basic spine cleaning, working with the astral realm and diving through the darkness, learning to come back through with even more light. It can be a bit of a roller coaster, but well worth the ride. The third year feels more spiritual as the student learns to inquire into their relationship in the higher levels and to God. Authority issues are often questioned and encountered as the curriculum supports Surrendering into the Divine. It’s a very special year because of the beauty and light that shines through as one begins to touch deeper into Spirit. The fourth and final of the basic four year program includes writing a Case Review of a specific Client, and also writing a paper of how to bring your unique blend of Healing into the World. Other skills such as “hara” and Core Star® are also learned to help bring alignment and the Four Dimensions of the Physical, Astral, Hara, and Core Essence into integration in ones life.
Personally, I felt so inclined that I continued to go further with the BIP program to Supervise Students and Groups, and the ASED program which prepared me to teach. I was honored to teach the third year as a faculty member, and am forever grateful to have to received and also shared the teachings of this work. One of my favorite things to do is guide clients to find their own truth and light as they progress through the years at BBSH.
I know that people have questions about energy healing. Many of us have had experiences of Higher Sense of Perception where we perceive more than what most do with the naked eye. Most children have the abilities to sense beyond, but are taught to discount theses experiences. But something inside that wants to awaken keeps sending sparks of light out to remind us that we are much more than we ever imagined. The School is helpful for people who have experienced a kernel of the truth. It is a container of Love and Kindness with expertly trained people to pass on the skills needed to be a successful healer. And let’s face it- the world needs more healing!
So if you have any questions- or are wanting to do a session either in person or via phone/Skype, call Sharon Hartnett LMT for a session to help you find your way back to Grace. Telephone number is (614) 372-6598 in Columbus, Ohio.

At Lighten Up Therapies in Columbus Ohio…
Wellness through Craniosacral Therapy is our goal.
Often clients are faced with challenges that take them off track for some reason. It could be unrelenting chronic or acute physical pain, feelings of anxiety, anger and rage that have no place to be expressed, or a sense of disconnect from the rest of life. Whatever your problem is, if you are having a hard time resolving it alone, you have come to the right place to start your journey to Wellness. We work holistically within our practice, and with other therapists and doctors as a team. We are here to help you move toward your goals of health.
How does Craniosacral Therapy Work for You?
Craniosacral Therapy is a system that requires an experienced practitioner to listen to the healing intelligence of your body, and energy field to support your health. By bringing our technical and palpation skills to your session, your body can begin to self-correct and release old dysfunctional patterns. This is accomplished by gently following your body tissues and moving along with your natural CS rhythms to enliven and hydrate the tissues and nervous system. As new information is introduced, a dialoguing process activates more efficient body functionality overall. When the mind of the body gets re-educated, the brain changes too.
At the end of a session, clients often get up off the table feeling relaxing changes working throughout their bodies and thinking. When people talk about the mind, body & spirit connection, it means that by sensing change on any of the physical, emotional, or other aspects of life, one spectrum can support healing onto the other. As bodyworkers, often our intention is to awaken your sense of Source through skilled touch. As indicated by the title of this blog, “Wellness is a connection of paths: knowledge and action.” One system connecting with another opens the possibilities to shift into a more whole way of living.
Wellness
At Lighten Up Therapies we offer an array of different modalities to help you on your journey to Wholeness. Our hope is to help you awaken to your Source. It is in the richness of the inner experience that healing can be activated.
