How to Feel Safe in Your Body: 5 Grounding Techniques to Reduce Anxiety and Boost Well-Being

by SharonHartnett | May 3, 2025 | Craniosacral Therapy, grounding, healing, Healthy Body, mindfulness

Body Awareness with Craniosacral Therapy

The Top Benefit:

The greatest benefit of feeling safe in your body is enhanced emotional regulation. When you cultivate a sense of bodily safety, healing happens!

It’s important that when you are choosing who to work with for somatic therapy, that you interview, and take your time. Trust your intuition, and ask plenty of questions. Your healing journey truly depends on having a person to trust, and with whom you feel safe when you are on the table.

Craniosacral Therapy, in itself, is a very comforting type of somatic therapy. It begins with being present, using proven technques, and listening and melding rather than manipulating. It offers the body an opportunity to self-correct and move into wellness.

Feeling safe can:

Reduce chronic stress and anxiety, as your nervous system shifts out of “fight-or-flight” mode
Increase resilience, enabling you to face life’s challenges with calm and clarity
Improve relationships, because you’re more present, compassionate, and able to listen deeply
Boost overall well-being, with better sleep, digestion, and energy levels

5 ways to Ground and feel more safe:

1. Stand Outside barefoot and feel how the earth supports you.

2. Mindfully breathe and notice the sensations in your body.

3. Exercise

4. Pat your body from feet to your head.

5. Eat and taste. Listen and hear the music of nature. Touch a tree!

It’s possible to re-build a sensation of “safe” inside again.

Unlocking Your Next Timeline: How to Shift Your Best Life Path

by SharonHartnett | Jan 18, 2025 | change, craniosacral, Craniosacral Therapy, Energy Healing, healing, healthy, Healthy Body, Spiritual Healing, trauma

What is Jumping a Timeline?

How did this idea of a Jumping Timeline arise? This shift of consciousness is part of the Great Awakening. I have been in the world of Energy Healing for about 30 years. I came from a 4 dimensional Healing Model based on Barbara Brennan’s work in “Hands of Light” and also studied and taught at her school. Things have changed greatly in the last 30 years. Minds have opened. Reality has shifted dramatically.

At that time in the 1990’s, the Barbara Brennan School of Healing was a vital “transformer” of consciousness. Barbara brought many of the eastern principles to the West to open the portal for the change of consciousness. Time was spent on healingn oneself, and our relationships as well. Thousands of people across the globe went to her school to learn and to open up. Even now- being part of that Energy Capsule brings a great perspective of looking at healing in the physical, the auric field, the haric field and in the Core Start (Divine Indivuated You).

More recently though, I heard so much about “Jumping Timelines” and I noticed it showing up so much in spiritual discussions and in books. Well also on Tic Toc with the teaching of Bashar. Lots of younger people seem convinced that we can jump timelines by just imagining our best selves. Kind of like looking at a book with many chapters. With each chapter as one possible version of how things can be. When you skip to the other, reality shifts. This means your reality is fluid and can shift, creating new possibilities. This paradigm reminds me a bit of Joe Dispenza’s work of transformation into a new personality and a new life.

Personally, I am still grappling, not with the understanding from my POV, but that of what do these other people mean? Are they personally experiencing timeline shifts? What does that look like for these individuals?

Questions: For people, does it mean setting an intention? Does it mean visualizing and making a new choice? Is this about the multiverse and quantum physics? How much do we truly understand this? Even with AI… How much do our ordinary mindset’s open up to how vast the processing of consciousness and technology can be? We are in the midst of great change here on earth now. Do you feel it? Big changes within human consciousness and all of life is at a tipping point. Where will this take us?

I believe that all of this is fascinating. I stay so curious about all the possibilities. The smartest thing I know about myself is how much I “don’t know”. Life is about living in the mystery and living in the moment if we want to live fully.

At the same time, I just don’t think humanity is at a point where we can force our thinking to taking us to the next level. There are many levels of consciousness that need to align first. We need to find a way to free ourselves from attachment to the past, and fear of the future. I am not suggesting forgetting again, but integrating! To move to the next timeline means gaining clarity and find effortless in the new moment as Eckart Tolle teaches.

Instead, right now-I think we are living on a planet where there is deep duality still. There’s so much suffering, pain and trauma. It’s not yet easy to just flip the switch for most of us. Instead, I think this is the time to face ourselves, to accept who we are, and to move with grace. Yes, to imagining our “best” selves in the future, tapping into our wholesness. But living in the moment is where it all is.

I think it’s best to create an invitation in our mindset of the thinking about our “wholeness”. The things we care about or long for most likely live in a parallel universe, but that universe is HERE. Dealing with what we are creating, the responses to that and the all external environment.

For many years, Light Workers have been working and holding a space for growth and jumping timelines. The next generation are learning and awakening exponentially. In so many ways, they are moving so much quicker than we did. What took us years, takes them weeks spiritually to feel and to understand. Many are born with spiritual gifts. A great example are the children with autism who are non-verbal. You can learn about this at: The Telepathy Tapes. But still, we need to bridge the way even more. We can’t bypass the challenges to jump ahead. The passing of the baton is the way through transformation, transcendence and consciousness awakening.

How to Jump the Timeline

If we want to be jumping timeline it takes mindfulness, authenticity, effort and also stillness. It’s an invitation and a step forward.

Living Here is the way of Jumping Timeline. Be yourself. Choose love. Self-Discover your deepest wisdom. Have the willingness to be open to the Unknown. Make the commitment.

More than anything, realize it means feeling and knowing your shadow and your darkness. Being brave enough to walk through the fire to the Light. You can’t bypass your way into a better reality. However, you can make the move. It’s up to you.

Things are Happening

Right now, so many changes both in the Light and Dark are here. Love has come to awaken all of us. This is your chance to be Jumping Timelines, but what that means is making the best life for you right here, right now now, and seeing how that change ripples through the Universe.

Aligning Your Life with the Truth of Your Body

by SharonHartnett | Sep 6, 2024 | Craniosacral Therapy, Healthy Body, mind body & spirit, mindfulness

The Truth of Your Body

Believe in the Truth of Your Body. It’s honest. It’s integrity. It is what is real in the moment. What I mean by this is that the physical is not making up perceptions. It is what it is. An expression of your human physical state of being. It lives and does its’ thing!

The mind is what perceives and creates stories. Your thoughts, experiences and learned beliefs influence the body. But the body is not the thinker. Rather, it is living physical relationships dancing cheek to cheek inside of you on a physiological level.

From one perspective, this includes individual parts. The human body can be seen as cells & their parts, tissues, organs and systems. They are all separate, yet the truth of your body which also exists is experienced as a “Whole” dynamic creative expression. The body exists in partnership through fluids and connective tissue as ONE Living Experience. It shapes based on mind and from Source itself.

When a professional and experienced manual therapist works with you, they are listening to your body primarily and also your story (if this is their practice focus) if they are to be precise and accurate in discovering and supporting the health of any physical tension areas. While a person may come in and say, “this hurts”, the therapist listens verbally but also stays curious primarily by where the body directs us. By placing our hands on the body, we allow the body to lead us to the pattern that is most significant in the encounter. This is where we work rather than on the place that hurts. Generally, the pain spot is what speaks from a mind perspective. It could feel like the weakest link. However, the truth of the body is more accurate in its’ objective communication.

I know that sometimes people do have stories and issues where they need to be heard, and understood. This IS valuable information on a different level. Often this is key in healing too. This can be addressed in Somato Experiencing type of work. It needs to be mirrored and given equal measure. Yet if we truly want to address the physical piece, we need to understand that it’s vital to address the truth of the body to remedy what ails you.

When you trust the signals of the body, it is easy to move and meet the current concern. Feeling the pull towards that area is easy with practice. Dr. Barral says, “The body hugs the lesion”. I find this to be very true in my work as well.

What differentiates a talented manual bodyworker is the ability to listen on different levels. We have to stay open minded and learn our anatomy. If you want better alignment in the body, find a therapist who listens to the truth of your body.

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.
