Getting Clear about What You Want in Life

Getting Clear about What You Want in Life

You CAN get clear about what you want in life.

How?

What you need to do first is start by getting clear about your commitment to Clarity.  Set certain times aside for yourself to explore.  This can be done alone, or with a friend, healer or a therapist.  Self-discovery is a very interesting process. It begins by bringing your awareness to your thinking and how it affects you.  Cause and Effect.

Most of our thinking comes from our history and projections into the future.  What we believe about our stories can become very important to us.  And the filters that we now see the world through can be dimmed by repetitive belief systems.  By realizing how we identify with certain thinking patterns, we can change how we experience and create in the world.  Three keys to getting clearer about what matters to you:

  • Mindfulness is key for bringing awareness to thoughts that confuse and that block us from finding optimal value in our lives.  And it is in the quiet listening to our thoughts as they pass through, that we can navigate into the deeper silence.  Without the clutter, things are much closer to the heart and easier to navigate.  Into the “Now” place, life springs forth and life is more simple.
  • Being Curious makes space for new ideas and perspectives.  It’s like opening a door to see what’s next.
  • Experiencing means being with what is here right now in the moment.

Once the mind starts to quiet down.  Awareness can be experienced as more expansive.  We can step out of our normal living box. Perspective opens.  The bigger picture gives us an advantage to seeing things differently and with more clarity.  Experience and centeredness helps us to know what feels right for us.  It helps to define our relationship to the moment.

The mind and its consciousness is a larger field than just one person alone.

There are infinite possibilities.  But with healing relationships, we can investigate truth, and get more clear about who we are.  Our false identities dissolve and life feels more simple, and more restful.  Believe it-  when the mind opens, clarity is a relief.

Getting Clear by reaching outside of “normal” thinking patterns.Reach for the sky!

My job as a Barbara Brennan Healer is to work with your energy. To create a space where we work together to create an exchange that supports your movement into clarity.  A conversation that will set you free from illusion, and direct you into clarity.

Something deep inside of you knows the TRUTH.  And it will set you free to direct your life with more ease.

Getting clear,  that is my goal in helping you.  To help you connect to the authentic value you are here to live.

If you are looking for help,  I work locally and on Skype long distance.

Presence:  Discovering Inner Wisdom

Presence: Discovering Inner Wisdom

The Inner Wisdom of my body brought me into Presence…

God Bless Our Inner Wisdom. The intelligence Within is powerful. When I was younger, I found myself fascinated by the human body and how it works.  At a later ripened  aged Craniosacral Therapist, I now find myself even more intrigued.  Never is there a dull moment when I get bored with what I do.  This is because I continue to study, explore and keep my mind open to new things arising in relationships: The people with whom I work,  The world of Science, Touch and Healing, and of course with the magic of bringing peace and balance into any given equation.  This is important to me so I can be the best version of facilitator I can be to support my clients. My best teachers, of course, are the moments when I meld and grow with each person who is willing to take a chance to heal and to deepen into Self-Discovery. Quite the adventure.

During every session,  presence grows as I listen and support the inner wisdom relationship between me and my clients..  My mind, body & spirit feel much more aligned and deeply connected due to the quality of work to which I aim.  Why?  Because I understand that each client is a gift to me, where we dance together in mutuality for the highest good, and where the intention is focused on waking up into knowing health and wholeness.  My clients come back, because I stay in a neutral place of non-judgment, open to the possibilities of getting better.  Whatever it takes…  My commitment is strong and based in care and understanding.  Not to mention, an array of tools learned throughout the years.

The human body

As a Licensed Manual Therapist,  the emphasis of my work has been on Listening, Connection, & Using the Tools that I have learned.  One of the places I learned my unique approach to healing was in my Hakomi training.  Ron Kurtz, who founded the Hakomi work taught that Loving presence is an incredible supportive way to create a therapeutic relationship that is safe, accepting and gracious.  For me, this means being very aware of Who I am in the moment, and listening to the information that is presented by the inner wisdom of my client.  This can be expressed in the wave of a breathe, a sound, a facial expression or sometimes through talk.   Dialogue happens on many different levels. Through my Upledger Training,  I have also learned to trust the Inner Wisdom inside of each person.  It guides me, shows me the way to release and uncover old traumas, defense patterns, and dysfunctional patterns.  Much of the time, I use the Craniosacral Rhythm and its Significance Detector to lead me where the body wants to go.  Believe it or not, your body knows what it needs and that information is available.

The people who benefit the most from organic and natural healing are those who open up to all possibilities.  People who take a chance to step outside what they know into the Unknown.  This means feeling deeply into the sensing body, feeling emotions, and exploring belief systems.  Coming out of the shadow and entering into the Presence of NOW.  For example, I had a client who had lost her baby. During our SomatoEmotional work, she continued felt her deep grief, and expressed the pain that she felt inside her body. The pain at her loss. I listened to what her body offered to show me.  After a series of sessions, she moved much more freely and felt so much better.  It is such a difficult thing to have to go through, but she found that going in and through her broken heart, that she could live easier on the other side.

What I have discovered is that the best healing work is not about analyzing or figuring out the problem.  But rather, I have seen through my manual therapy  approach that focusing on supporting this concept of the “Evolving Presence” takes us into more expansion and a felt presence of health and wellbeing.  The more we are mindful, curious and neutral, the more clarity and truthful we become.  And the Truth does set us free.  All the Craniosaccral tools in the world don’t mean a thing without have a solid foundation in Presence.  Trusting the Inner Wisdom matters most in every session.

Two Hearts Meeting Together

Two Hearts Meeting Together

Today, I felt like writing an informal post about Hearts Meeting.  A chat about how much I love my work.  I am so fortunate that I get to wake up each day, loving my family, my home, and my interactions with life.  It prepares me to be able to be in service in the work I chose.  And I love working with people.  Mostly because it opens my heart. And it opens other people’s hearts.

Hearts

Hearts

In my work practice, I have clients come see me for a variety of reasons.  Mostly people who are uncomfortable with something in life:  their physical bodies, feelings, unclear thinking or relationships to the spiritual.   I listen.  I take in the story from a neutral place.  And then I guide.  My job is to facilitate the unfolding of my client’s own inner wisdom.  For I am not actually the healer, but rather a facilitator of sorts.  For over 25+ years, I have studied, worked and practiced healing techniques to help myself, those nearby whom I love, and my clients who want to connect with their Higher Purpose.  People who want to feel at home in their bodies, their lives with heart and vitality.  How I do that is by being Present with myself, my client and trusting the process of the energy dynamics.  I center in my heart of hearts.

All of life has a stirring of energy.  It lives throughout all of consciousness.  I know this may sound a little far out for some.  But I feel it in the presence of all living things.  I feel it in myself, and especially when I connect from my heart to others.  I may use energy healing, craniosacral therapy or Hakomi or such as tools, but what deeply matters is that we all are part of a sacred heart infinite web.  Humanity is riding on just one small wave in the Universe, but everything is interconnected.  We are interconnected.  Yet we are also given this gift of discovering a sense of self.  and while there may be many similarities between us, we each have a chance to write our own unique stories.  In this, I find passion and heart.  When I connect with my clients on the table, I love the brain and the body, but most of all-touching from my heart to another.  It is so transformational and healing.

You don’t have to be a healer do this.  We are all ordinary people, humble coming from the same Source.  We all have the ability to heal the soul.  It may appear otherwise, but the truth is that in the little things. we can make huge positive change.  Choosing to love from your heart in any moment is a choice we can all make.  Healing this planet, and all the people here is all about this and connecting to other hearts.

I finish now, with a heart full of gratitude for all my clients, as well as for the fullness in my life.  And I wish you all the same.

Healing Sexual Abuse with Craniosacral Therapy

Healing Sexual Abuse with Craniosacral Therapy

Statistics say that 1 in 5 girls and 1 in 20 boys have suffered sexual abuse.

Many victims of abuse stay quiet about their experience.  Isolation often leads them to feeling low self-esteem, and frightened about contact.  It’s time to change that.

Craniosacral Therapy

Craniosacral Therapy

Recovering from sexual abuse is an individualized process that is done with hope and help.

If one can only imagine after suffering sexual abuse in silence, what it would take to step out and commit to the healing process, know that resources are available.

Craniosacral Therapy can be very helpful if only for its therapeutic presence. Yet it is also a very gentle hands on therapy that is done with respect and in a neutral state of Being.This allows clients to have an experience of touch that is without judgment, where they can feel into their emotions and let go of residual trauma.This often takes many session to build trust, and to work with the Inner Physician within the client through mindfulness and self-discovery. This is not an advice type of psychotherapy, but rather a bodywork exploration into the senses, and feelings that come up organically within the bodywork context. By working with the Craniosacral Therapy rhythm, the therapist can monitor and support the Central Nervous system to balance and integrate.

Sharon Hartnett LMT has worked with clients with this modality in conjunction with psychotherapists to support self-discovery. Clients have learned to identify and build healthy boundaries, to self-regulate and move through their trauma at their own pace and time. Everything is done with respect and organic movement. There is no need to accomplish or go for a goal, but rather to allow the process to unfold in its own way.  Everyone deserves to feel safe in their body.

If you are feeling stressed and and feel like you would like to try this CST,  call Sharon Hartnett CST-D for a free 15 minute consultation.

Flu or Cold this Season.  Stay Home and Rest!

Flu or Cold this Season. Stay Home and Rest!

Should you come in for a massage when you are experiencing a flu or cold this season?

I love working with my clients.  Truly I do.  My work and the people I touch bring so much light into my world. But I am always astonished that some of them come into the intimate setting of the massage room with either a full blown cold or flu.  I know they need some TLC.  But the massage table is not the best place to get it.  Especially with COVID still present.  It’s important to remember that your massage therapist LMT can get sick.  But not only that,  everyone she/he touches or who breaths in or comes into contact with a live virus is prone to catch the same thing with enough exposure.

Some of the symptoms to look for are:

Cold:                                                                        

  • stuff or runny nose
  • sneezing
  • cough
  • eyes watering
  • fatigue
  • headache
  • light fever
  • congestion

Flu:

  • stuffy and/or runny nose
  • headache
  • weakness
  • fatigue
  • dry cough
  • fever
  • congestion
  • body aches and pains

Colds tend to be milder.  They also seem to be much short lived.

For more information on colds and flu check out:  Colds and the Flu

The best thing you can do is to rest, and take good care of yourself and others with plenty of sleep, and/or speaking with your physician.  Also- just so you know, sometimes massage can aggravate your illness if too much activation is going on in your body systems.  Not to mention,  I think I have read that some Chicken noodle soup can really help to!

Don’t be afraid to cancel if you are sick:).  Since I wrote this post, I have switched away from massage to Craniosacral Therapy.  COVID has had a big impact on many so please be mindful of resting and taking care of yourself, as well as keeping others healthy!
