The Sessions…
Everyone, whether human or animal, will experience holistic therapy in a unique way. For some, holistic or energy healing therapies may offer deep relaxation, while others may notice a shift in awareness and self-perception.
In today’s fast-paced world, it’s natural to want immediate “results” from individual sessions. However, it can be helpful to view holistic therapy as a journey. Rather than focusing solely on what we have (or haven’t) gained, we might consider what needs to change and whether our mind and body are open to allowing this transformation.
As the name suggests, holistic therapy seeks to connect with the whole self. By addressing both physical and emotional signals of discomfort or imbalance, holistic therapy aims to identify areas of disharmony. Instead of focusing on specific symptoms, it broadens the perspective, seeking to understand the root cause. This process may open additional channels for healing that address not just current symptoms but also underlying factors.
Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, holistic therapy unravels imbalances layer by layer, honoring the individual’s unique needs. This approach fosters a personal journey that unfolds at its own pace.
The Role of Consent and Commitment
Holistic therapy is not a quick fix and should never be undertaken without the active consent of the client, whether in a human or animal capacity. Therapy is a two-way process, and true transformation requires a willingness from both mind and body to embrace therapeutic change.
Even when change is invited, there are no guarantees. The mind and body must initiate and support the journey. For chronic or long-standing issues, multiple sessions may be necessary to gradually address layers of distress or imbalance and to reach the root cause.
Holistic therapies have thankfully seen a resurgence in recent years. Falling under the umbrella of complementary and alternative medicine, many health professionals, veterinarians, and GPs now recommend various forms of holistic therapy as part of a healing regimen. These therapies are generally safe and widely accessible, as they have no contraindications.
