Healing Momentum  Elaine Clayton 2017

For a long time now I have had a vision of my ideal wellness center. I pictured one that incorporates many modalities of healing, including intuitive exploration (intuitive stream drawing sessions) and art created with the intention to heal though color, shape and form. I think really on a fundamental level, healing the body is a spiritual event.

In the Tree of Life/The Ten Sefirot, the ancient Kabbalists taught that the 3 aspects of thought/ideas (wisdom/chachma, knowledge da-yot, understanding/ bina) and the 7 emotions (kindness, severity, compassion, humility, endurance, bonding and sovereignty) must all work harmoniously for us to be whole. Yet I have seen in my personal life and in my work so much of our thoughts, memories and emotional dispositions keep us from healing on any level. Our thoughts keep strong negative emotion active, memories are hard to let go of, etc.  We need more than external treatment, we need support changing our narratives and letting go of emotional pain that does not serve us. So I am very excited to announce that I have been invited to join such a practice and will have the opportunity to help that wellness center continue to live out an ideal. There are several practitioners there who do great work, including massage therapists offering a variety of massage (cranio-sacral, lymph drainage, etc) mental health, family and group therapy and an MD who does acupuncture and more). I will announce more in the next few weeks!
