I'm so glad I learnt Havening Techniques(r) after I quite by chance got the opportunity to experience Havening from someone who was completing the training. In 45 minutes I went from full blown flashbacks of the terror and pain and fear of childbirth, so comfortably remembering this key event without the emotional charge. We even re-wrote some of the memory of that night by adding a warm and happy ending to it, so when my memory brings me the night again (as it sometimes does), the warm ending comes too. It remains a wild night of my life, but the memory is no longer shattering each time I recall it. And best of all, I didn't have to speak one word of it in the session. It is a truly no-talk therapy and my experience of it was so powerful that within 3 months I had completed the full training for myself (though qualification is a rigorous 12-month process, so the badge followed a year later): - I'm able to open my doors to trauma-informed coaching of people across many walks of life, knowing I have advanced training and skills to ethically take care of them; - I can take care of myself even on days when people have shared their most shattering experiences with me (this sort of self-care is radically overlooked imo, and def missing for most people trained as coaches); - I can offer this mighty tool to people not only in session but as a skill they can learn to do by themself when they need stress release; - I'm connected to an incredible network of practitioners worldwide who do all types of work from schools, to first responder crisis support, to therapists, to coaches. As a practitioner doing a quite rare form of coaching, this group means I feel much less alone! I don't often post about Havening as the technique itself is experiential rather than explanatory. If you are curious about how it might help you release unwanted stuck energies that are holding you back, send me a message and we can have a free chat to give you more information. #haveningtechniques #traumainformedleadership #coaching #coachingpsychology #neuroscience
