My journey continues

Before I knew it, I was graduating as a Certfied Rubenfeld Synergist. I could not beleive it that 4 years had past and I was at this threshold of my life. It was a highlight of my life with my fellow Ruby Synergist Sisters, all of us graduating together. Now that I had graduated, I knew my passion was to do this work. I was still working at my corporate job which brought in a great living even though I felt in my body that this job had outlived itself with me. But like many people, I continued to work in the corporate world hoping one day I could live my dream of building my own Rubenfeld Synergy practice. Remember the old saying "be careful of what you wish for - it may come true" or if you put it out there to the universe - it may come true. It wasnt' too much longer where I could see the writing on the wall concerning my corporate job that I may not be working too much longer. I continued to have my personal rubenfeld sessions which was a support to me through the transistion I was about to take. So I started to consider and prepare myself for the transition that I could sense in the air. How did I do that? By looking at my work that I was doing in corporate - was I happy? could I survive being on my own? how did I know I would? I did have a deep feeling within that everything would be alright even though I could not see the destination. So I got laid off from my corporate job.

My experience in Rubenfeld Training

Looking back on my 4 years of training in Rubenfeld Method Synergy (which is will call RSM) it was the most liberating, creative, imaginative, and freeing type of training I have ever experienced in my life. What may all of this was the format of the training, very relaxed and yet intense. Part of the training was the requirement to have 20 personal sessions of Rubenfeld Training so you are both experiencing the work plus working your life story. I must of cried the first 3 years of training through this process. I would have my personal RSM sessions in the morning then attend body mind movement classes for 2 hours each day of training. It seemed I cried from the moment I laid down on the floor until the class was done. The emotions just poured from my body from the very first time I experienced this work. I remember being told that I would not look like the same person upon entering the training. In fact, a picture was required for the application. It was true, I did not look like the same person nor was I that same person. There was a tremendous amount of healing that took place through the training and still continues today.

More to come.....

My journey to alternative health

After my first session with Rubenfeld Synergy Method, which I will call RSM, it was a life changing moment for me. I felt lighter, different in a way I can't describe in words, and knew this work was powerful and I wanted more.

So I submitted my application to the 4 year training program and was accepted. This meant a hugh committment on my part as I would have to travel at least 6 times a year for training plus eventually have practice clients. I was living in Mississippi at the time and would commute to upper New York at Omega Campus for Holistic Studies - if you haven't been there - you have to experience it - for me it was like going back into the 60's.

more to come next time

how I was introduced to Rubenfeld Synergy

In 2002, I went to visit my friend Joan in Buffalo NY for a weekend. I knew Joan was doing some kind of training in a body mind method but didn't have a clue what it was about. So on Saturday night, in her living room with a warm beautiful fire burning, she asked if I would like to try a session. I said yes not knowing what was going to happen nor even knowing what exactly she was training in. I got onto a massage table, of course with my clothes on, and just laid down. What I rememeber today is that was a life changing moment in my life. It seemed like I was only on the table for 5 minutes, when in fact, I was on the table at least 40 minutes before the session was over. As I laid on the table, I seemed to go inside, feeling relaxed and as if I went into a trance or something, and just listening to Joan guiding my journey. I found myself re-living a moment in time some 30 years ago, when I was in a horrible car accident, feeling the shock and emotion that was associated with this event. Since the time of this accident, I had a pain in my left hip and would notice it frequently throughout my life especially when shifting gears in my car. Funny, I felt very safe while re-living this horror. I immediately felt a huge area of emotion moving from the bottom of feet up through my body. I tried to stop it and could not. It did not hurt just that it felt so different of an experience. My felt a huge release as if I released alot of air in my body.

Since the time of that session in 2002, the pain has disappeared and I am convinced now that the emotion and shock of that event was held in my body in my left hip and released in that session.

More to come on my journey in Rubenfeld Synergy!

My first blog

Well, this is really new to me. I have been told by many of my friends to start a blog on my web site - so here goes.

I am really curious for feedback on what your impression is of my web site - what draws you to it - what is not clearly explained on site about what I do as a Rubenfeld Synergist.

I plan on blogging about my experience on how I got into this work. But I first would like to hear from you on what you think.

Thanks, Janet
