What is Your Body Trying to Tell You?

The body is profoundly connected to the mind and our emotions. (Think of a pounding heart from fear, butterflies in the stomach from worry and anxiety, a headache from overwhelming stress etc…)

When stressful and painful things happen in life we often suppress our feelings to be able to move on. These feelings go underground, and sooner or later start expressing themselves in the body in various ways, for example as muscle tension, pain, or fatigue. In the healing process these symptoms can be used as sign posts that tell us that something inside is out of balance and in need of healing. They become helpers in reconnecting to our feelings and inner resources and in finding balance again.

Rubenfeld Synergy is characterized by the simultaneous use of talk therapy, imagery and gentle “listening” touch. These ingredients work together to increase awareness of both body and mind. As the body relaxes deeply, feelings and memories surface more easily, and allow new insights to happen. A healing process is underway. Chronic pain, for example, frequently disappears when long held emotions are acknowledged and expressed.

Clients usually find the Rubenfeld Synergy work relaxing, nurturing, enjoyable, surprising, and transformative. With new awareness people are able to make changes towards more health, harmony and well-being in their daily life.

Having worked with people for 30+ years – as a physician in Sweden and a body-mind therapist (Rubenfeld Synergist) in the US – I have developed a deep respect for the innate resiliency and wisdom within each individual. With the listening skills of my heart and my hands, I offer a safe, accepting and nurturing space for your personal journey to more health and well-being. ®
