How To Optimise Your Session For Greater Results

In this blog you will learn what to do BEFORE, DURING and AFTER your session with me to accelerate your healing and whole-ing journey.

BOOKING TIPS

To answer some of the initial questions you might have about booking your session, I’ve listed a few tips to help make your experience as hassle free as possible.

Booking tip #1

I’m going to start with one of the most important tips I can give you. It’s an often overlooked detail that is of huge importance. When you book a session with me online you’ll see a little check box that asks you if you’ve read and understood my terms and conditions. Before you rush into ticking that box, assuming you already know what those terms and conditions are, stop and take a minute to actually read them. The reason that box is there and is a compulsory ticking situation is because those terms and conditions contain a list of what’s called contraindications.

Contraindications

Contraindications are circumstances in which a session would not be beneficial, or where there is possible risk, for example, for pregnant or breastfeeding women. That’s because tuning forks can have a powerful effect on some people, so I won’t use them on anyone if there are contraindications. You can find the list of all the known contraindications on the Terms and Conditions page of my website, which I’ve abbreviated to Ts and Cs.

If your health condition isn’t listed among the known contraindications, are you aren’t sure if an energy therapy session is the right therapy for you, please email me before your appointment day and ask.

Booking tip #2

All new clients need to fill out a client registration form. On it there’s a space where you can describe your past and present physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. Even if you bullet point your history and current situation, that’s fine. This information is important, because it could save us lot of time and detective work tracking a health issue back to its origin event.

Origin Events

An origin event is one in which emotions are created by the body, but aren’t fully metabolised and those molecules of emotion and associated energy gets stored in the body and in the biofield for future processing. While that emotional energy is waiting to be processed, its signature frequency affects the vibration and therefore the health of the cells, which affects the health of the organ, which affects the health of the body system, which affects the health of the whole body. On top of that, to store this unprocessed energy also requires energy. So there can be a lot of your energy being sequestered by a single origin event and if you’ve had an emotional rollercoaster of a life, that equates to a lot of energy tied up in storage, when it could be put to better use, like powering your cells.

Booking tip #3

Book your sessions at least three days apart, to avoid the possibility of triggering a healing crisis, which can occur if you rush things, or if you are overlapping too many different healing modalities. A healing crisis is when your body becomes so over burdened you reverse any progress you might have made if you had taken your time.

Booking tip #4

Everybody is a sovereign being whose body and life journey is their own, so I won’t work on someone’s energy without their permission. So if you're a parent and would like your child to have a session, they’ll need to be old enough to give their consent. Minors need to be accompanied by an adult during their sessions.

Booking tip #5

When filling out your name on the forms, its important for your personal energetic assessment (which I do before your 1st Consultation appointment) that you put your first and last names, rather than a nick name or an alias. That’s because I’ve observed that the names we go by affects our energy field and that some names are beneficial while others are not. If you’re in a situation where your marital status has changed, or your want to change your name because you’re just not digging it, let me know and I can do an energy reading on each of them and let you know which ones are energetically beneficial. Sometimes a simple name change can boost your energy levels.

Booking tip #6

If you live in a different time zone and want to book a distance session outside of my normal work hours, I recommend you contact me a couple of days in advance of when you want your session, because if your day is my night, there may be several hours lag between texts and emails.

Booking tip #7

Most people require three or more sessions, so I’ve created four different pre-paid pricing plans options which will save you money. The ‘Kick Starter’ plan is 3 sessions, the ‘Good Vibes’ plan is 5 sessions, the ‘Light and Bright’ plan is 7 sessions, and ‘The Works’ is 9 sessions. At the time of writing this blog, you can use your plan to pay for any combination of session types, i.e., 1st Consultation, 1-On-1’s or Distance Sessions. To check out my prepaid plans, go to the Pricing Plans page on my website.

Booking tip #8

I’ve created a member’s area on my website so that you can create an account and manage your pricing plan and your bookings online. This is very convenient if you need to reschedule. You can also download the app so you can manage your account on the go.

Those are my booking tips, so let's move on.

BEFORE YOUR SESSION BEGINS

I’m an ex Girl Scout and our motto was “Be prepared,” which has stuck with me for life. So here are my tips for preparing you for your energy therapy session, starting with a general piece of advice for starting your healing journey.

Regardless of whether you’ve chosen to take the alternative route or the conventional route to healing, or a complementary mixture of both, before you start your healing journey, please make sure you have a support network in place first. You might think that you won’t need it and can manage on your own, but things can go sideways and it's far better to be safe than sorry, should that happen. If you don’t have family or friends you can ask for support, check out the community counselling services in your area, many of which are free or donation based.

Ideally you want schedule some downtime before your session, so you’re in the right frame of mind to begin the healing process. Rushing around before hand might seem productive, but it’s not going to help you get the most out of your session and I’ll tell you why…

Research shows that getting into a state of relaxation is one of THE most important things you can do to help the healing process, but for many of you that’s easier said than done, and it’s the very reason you’ve come to me for help. A lot of what I do during your session is to get your brain to change its frequency, which signals your nervous system to change gear and your body to produce beneficial chemicals instead of harmful ones.

Brain Wave Frequencies

Let me explain the difference between the brain frequencies, or brain wave states as they are also known, so you have a clearer idea of why this is so important.

When the brain is actively engaged in mental activities, it generates Beta waves. There are three levels of Beta waves:

Low-range Beta is between 13-15 hertz (or cycles per second), and is defined as relaxed, interested attention, for example; reading a book that’s familiar material.

Mid-range Beta is between 16-22 hertz and is produced during focused attention on sustained external stimuli, for example if you were being tested on what you just read in your familiar book.

High-range Beta is between 22-50 hertz and can be observed during stressful situations where survival chemicals like adrenaline and cortisol are produced in the body. In this state, the brain becomes too amped up and focused on the stressful stimuli to be able to learn, problem solve or heal.

High-Beta is a short term survival mechanism and a long term source of stress and imbalance, because it requires an immense amount of energy to sustain. This is the most reactive, unstable and volatile of all the brain patterns.

When you’re in an Alpha state however, you’re relaxed, meditative, daydreaming, fantasising or have a detached awareness. Your brainwaves are moving at a frequency between 7-14 cycles per second. To better understand Alpha, close your eyes and imagine your happy place. See it in your minds eye, hear the sounds, smell the smells and feel the textures it has. This is the beginning of inducing the alpha state. Alpha has been known to reduce pain and is useful in healing and is the bridge between Beta and Theta.

I liken the difference between the Beta and Alpha frequencies to changing gears in your vehicle. Beta is like speeding along the motorway on the way to work during rush hour, while Alpha is like a slow Sunday afternoon cruise along the boulevard, which lets you appreciate all the sights, sounds and smells.

Theta is a state of deep relaxation and is the state used in hypnosis and dreaming while asleep. Theta results in us feeling truly restored after a nap. In this state the brain waves are slowed to a frequency of 4-7 cycles per second. Theta can be thought of as a door to the subconscious, which holds our memories, beliefs and behavioural programs. Many of my clients reach this brainwave state and have ‘ah-ha’ moments, like the recall of a long forgotten memory or dream and sometimes they astra travel, which is the sensation of being two places at once.

Delta happens when you’re in a deep sleep. In Delta your brainwaves slow to a frequency of 0-4 cycles per second. Many of my clients fall asleep on the massage table within minutes of their session starting and peacefully snore their way through their session, which is fine. When they awake they’re often embarrassed or apologetic about falling asleep during their session but it’s not an offence, it’s a good thing. It’s a sign that their body is receptive to the frequencies of the tuning forks and they’re making the most of the rest, digest and regenerate state that Theta and Delta provides.

Beta Endorphins

Other brain wave states have been discovered, but the only other one I want to mention here is Gamma. Gamma is the state we’re in when we learn and process information. Gamma waves stimulate the release of Beta endorphins. The word Endorphins is a blend of the words ‘endogenous’ meaning made in the body, and ‘morphine’ which is an analgesic or painkiller. Beta endorphins have been found to be even more potent at relieving pain than morphine, as well as interact with the dopamine system, which are the reward chemicals your body produces after certain activities to make you feel good. Beta endorphins also appear to be involved in higher mental activity and perception. In the gamma state your brainwaves cycle between 40-5000 cycles per second.

Some healers believe that spontaneous healing is more likely to occur when a person is in the Theta-Gamma range of frequencies.

So now you can see why practising relaxation techniques before your appointment can help you change gears at the beginning of your session, rather than the end, which allows for greater results.

Stillness and Surrender

One of the main objectives to practicing relaxation is to find stillness, which means unplugging from technology and finding a quiet space where you can push pause without interruption for 5-10 minutes. There are many ways you can do this, you can listen to calming music, or sit amongst nature and watch the wildlife, or watch the sun rise or sun set.
