What is your body trying to tell you... and why should you care?

What is your body trying to tell you...

and why should you care?

Have you spent years in therapy, only to rehash the same stories over and over? Do you have aches and pains, fatigue or digestive issues for which doctors can find no explanation? Many of us try to deal with our pains and traumas without recognizing that our bodies can be an invaluable resource for healing. Some of us even see our bodies as the enemy. Have you ever said that you have a "bad back," or that your "knees are shot," or expressed contempt for your hips, thighs, belly? We live in a culture where many of us dislike our bodies and strive endlessly toward an impossible ideal. What might happen if, instead, you befriended your body? How might it change your mind...and your heart?
Rubenfeld Synergy Method is a holistic healing technique that begins with giving attention to the body. When you begin to listen to the messages that your body has for you, you can bring awareness, understanding, relief, and transformation to your life.
Your Body is Your Only Home
Your body holds the key to everything that has ever happened to you. All of your stories, experiences, joys and sorrows, traumas and triumphs are held within your cells. The gentle, listening touch of a Synergist can help bring these stories forward, and help you move toward healing in a way that simple talk doesn't.
So what, you might be thinking. What if I don't want to pay attention to my body's stories? What if more awareness in my body just means I hurt more? How will listening to my body help me?
In this newsletter, we will share stories of how this listening has helped others, and how befriending your body can help you. In future issues, we'll also alert you about upcoming events, opportunities to be part of this community, and exercises to aid you in your personal healing journey.
 

Karen's Story: Safe to be Seen
Karen, a writer and a tall woman with a large frame, came to Synergy with a recurring injury. Her shoulders were constantly tight, and every six months or so, her back and neck would go into spasm to the point where raising her arm above the shoulder was agonizing. A few visits to a chiropractor and subsequent massage and rest would tend to calm it down, but sooner or later and without warning, the spasm and the pain would return. It usually seemed to be triggered by an increase in the difficulty of exercise, and she was becoming frustrated that she couldn't seem to improve in the ways she wanted to without hurting herself. At the same time, Karen was concerned about her career, and feeling frustrated that she hadn't published a book yet. As Karen talked about all of these things, the Synergist, named Sarah, gently cradled Karen's shoulder.
Sarah urged Karen to tune into her shoulders as she talked about this. Karen noticed that she was pulling her shoulders in to her spine. "I'm thinking about myself in high school," she said, "when I was all pulled in to protect myself from bullying. I thought I could make myself invisible."
As she thought this and voiced it, her shoulders pulled in even more tightly to her spine. Sarah felt this and responded. "What might happen," Sarah asked gently, "if you published a book?"
In the ensuing pause, tears began to run down Karen's cheeks. "I might be seen," she whispered. "And being seen isn't safe."
As Karen let the emotion of this realization move through her, her shoulders began to relax and expand. She was able to realize that by pulling herself in, she was keeping herself safe, but she couldn't become bigger, couldn't become what she wanted to be. What had been an essential protective mechanism had to be acknowledged, but she realized that it was no longer needed. Karen didn't need to be invisible anymore to be safe: it was time for her to come out and be seen.
And the back spasm didn't recur after that.

Listening to the Body, Transforming your Life
For Karen, what seemed like a simple physical injury was actually the result of a web of causes: emotional, physical, historical. Only by approaching her body and her story with compassion could she recognize the physical habits that were causing her pain.
What will the value be for you?
Warmly,
The Rubenfeld Synergy Community
"Helping you Befriend your Body and Transform your Life"

Our body is home to our emotions, our thoughts, and our spirit. How we live and move in our body is how we live and move in our lives.
Years of emotion can show up in many ways in our lives and in our body in the form as cancer, post traumatic stress, tension, anxiety, sleep disorder, and dis-ease in our body.
Exploring our life through the messages and metaphors that our body is manifesting is an important step in the process of healing our body and health.
 
Through Rubenfeld Synergy Method (®) (RSM) we can look at our health in a way of looking at illness or dis-ease in our body as a reflection of inner problems which disrupt our powerful immune system.

Illness in your body and life through Rubenfeld Synergy

Have you ever wondered when you have illness in your body and life what is going on? The inner dis-ease in our body could be described as unresolved issues, blockages, repressed emotion, or habitual negative patterns of though that exists in individuals body-mind.

I am always curious what does it take for an individual to become aware of the connection between what is happening in their life from an emotional view and what is happening physically in their body?

What is so powerful with experiencing Rubenfeld Synergy sessions, is that individuals are guided and learn how to listen to their body through various approaches - once you have become accustom to moving in the world through listening to your body, it opens up a whole new way of living - one with freedom, choice, and knowing you are living a life of being authentic!

VAST Wellness Center Integrative Cancer Health Program

Learning that you have cancer can come as a shock. How did you react? You may have felt numb, frightened, or angry. You may not have believed what the doctor was saying. You may have felt all alone, even if your friends and family were in the same room with you. These feelings are all normal.

The practitioners in our Integrative Health Program for cancer are experts in assisting both the diagnosed individual and those affected secondarily (such as caretakers and loved ones), in coming to terms with the changes in their lives and finding the courage to move forward in their treatment and healing. Talk therapy combined with relaxing massage, acupuncture, mind-body awareness, energy work, immune-boosting visualizations and more combine for a truly healing set of experiences.

Start your path to healing with easy on-line scheduling and/or pay via pay pal.

Light, Love and Power: The Path That Guides Us Home by Lori Schlosser, Certified Rubenfeld Synergist

Light, Love And Power: The Path That Guides Us Home by Lori Schlosser

—Image source: Flickr user AlicePopkorn
—Image source: Flickr user AlicePopkorn

I am sitting on a beach in Vieques, Puerto Rico. The sand is white and soft- the water- lapping onto the shore in the most beautiful shades of aqua blue- glistening with the reflections of the sunshine. I cannot imagine a more serene place. And yet, even here, there are times when the storms are so fierce that they batter the shore or an erupting volcano from the nearby island of Monserrat covers the island in grey ash.

Rubenfeld Synergy has taught me the importance of the metaphor. It is based on a principle that our “body” awareness is a metaphor for our lives. And today, reflecting on this place on earth, I see that my awareness is a metaphor for our experience of ourselves.

Our bodyminds are our islands- they contain the most idyllic places that sometimes get battered by storms or covered by the remnants of an earthquake in our lives that has passed. Sometimes the effects of the storms or the earthquakes stay held in our body memory and we forget that the serene places are still there. The greatest blessing I get from my work with clients is helping them to find these beautiful places in themselves again and again until the route becomes a well-travelled one that they can find on their own.

I recently was asked by my Rubenfeld Synergy mentor to partake in an exercise involving a series of steps that allowed me to come home to the place in me that guides my work. I love the exercise and want to share it because it will let you know more about me as a Synergist and is also a great tool for any holistic practitioner to use to gain (or return to) clarity about their own unique philosophy that guides their work. Whenever I refer to this exercise, I receive clarity about how to move with clients in new ways. Here are the steps and my responses to each step:

Step One: In a few words, state the belief that captures why you do the work.

My Response: “Everyone deserves to know their own light, love and power.”

Step Two: Based on that belief, state three intentions that allow this belief to manifest itself in your work:

My Response: “1) Create a space for my clients to find the light, love and power in themselves; 2) Create opportunities for my clients to seek and remove blocks from their light, love and power; 3) Believe in my clients without wavering.”

Step Three: For each intention, identify several actions that support and allow you to fulfill your stated intentions.

My Response:
Intention # 1: Create a space for my clients to find the light, love and power in themselves.

Actions: 1) Guide clients to become aware of sensations, memories and feelings in their bodies that allow them to find the unique resources that reside within them; 2) Heighten awareness of the client’s breath both as a way to find new openings in themselves and as a key to inviting the relaxation response and reduce stress; 3) Use imagery to allow the bodymind to open to its full potential, sensory awareness and experience; 4) Educate clients to identify postures that assist them in grounding and centering.

Intention # 2: Create opportunities for my clients to seek and remove blocks from their light, love and power.

Actions: 1) Assist clients to identify the location and awareness of the blocks, held emotions, places where the body feels stiff, tense, or dark; 2) Explore with clients how and when the blocks might have started in their lives; 3) Invite movement, emotional expression and voice, sound, and/or postural changes that create more ease and fluidity in the body.

Intention # 3: Believe in my client without wavering.
Actions: 1) Communicate verbally and nonverbally my deep respect for my clients; 2) Demonstrate through consistency that I believe in them and that it is my truth that they possess unlimited love, light and power; 3) Give them regular, authentic feedback about their progress; 4) Create a safe environment of trust and acceptance; 4) Allow clients to move at their own pace and give them permission to take the time they need; 5) Continuously communicate my belief that the body tells the truth and contains an innate resilience and wisdom for healing.

I come back to this exercise to guide my work with each client and to stay true to my life’s unique purpose in doing this work. There is so much light, love and power in knowing that whenever the storm or ash blows our way, the beautiful places are still accessible and alive within each of us!
