Face, Erase and Replace--with Grace:  TWR

Have You Tapped Into Your Self-healing Potential?
(as published in the Sierra Sun, 5/15/13) 

Have you ever contemplated, or even tried self-healing?  Does it seem further out there than, say, self-help or self-improvement?  

If you pause here to make an inner observation, how does the word “healing” strike you?  For many, healing feels very far away, as if it’s hiding behind a dense cloud of doubt and pain. Some flashback to trying desperate crapshoot cures in hopes of winning back their health.  Others cringe, remembering complicated medication reactions that left them feeling pharmacologically victimized by a drug that may have done more harm than good.    

A simple dictionary definition of healing is to restore to health or soundness.  Restore means to bring back, to reinstate a previous (healthy or sound) condition.  But what if our healing needs no restoration?  What if this condition is always profoundly present within us – like a clear spring of water blocked by a pile of rocks?

As a complimentary and alternative medicine (CAM) practitioner, I focus on a client’s healthy energy while we both listen deeply to what the symptoms may be saying.  This often reveals the root of the issue.  Wise healers have known of this for a long time.  Way back in the 19th century, Dr. Rudolf Virchow said, “Much illness is unhappiness sailing under a physiologic flag.” 

Once we’re aware of our own vast healing potentials, we can work on clearing an issue and installing a positive replacement.  Healing happens.  But is this something that anyone can learn to effectively do for himself or herself?

Enter now TWR:  Transformative Wholistic Reintegration.  It’s a physical-mental-emotional-spiritual-relational (wholistic) technique that includes the most effective components of several well-researched and proven methods of healing.  Yes, healing.  

 

TWR was pioneered about a dozen years ago by veteran wholistic psychotherapist Daniel Benor, MD, ABHM.  Dr. Benor authored the best selling book, “Seven Minutes to Natural Pain Release,” detailing the components of TWR, which is more technically called WHEE (Wholistic Hybrid of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).  TWR catalyzes transformation by enabling you to install positive thoughts and feelings to replace the cleared negative pain, trauma, addiction, stress, allergy, insomnia and/or other problems.

A TWR session begins by setting and holding a high intention, then steadily tapping left and right on your body, while processing the issue’s emotions and thoughts, and immediately following it with a positive statement that feels good to you.  With continued tapping, the issue’s healing balm is given to the subconscious like a gracious gift.  

A TWR round may take all of 15 minutes, may feel like heart-cleansing and empowering prayer, and clear years of blockage so one’s inner spring flows unhindered to balance and heal the whole self.

Now, if your reaction is a peaceful nod, just skip this paragraph.  If it’s a “Whoa, Nellie,” let’s stop for another inner observation.  TWR is simple, and simple runs counter to our cultural conditionings about healing.  But who says that something must be complex to work well?  TWR provides an easy way to face, erase and replace issues with grace.  

Here’s a real dilemma:  If I can learn to do this for myself (and even others), who’s going to keep the pharmaceutical companies in business?   Hmmm, now there’s an issue I guess I’ll NOT tap on.  

I hope you’ll discover the joy and freedom of tapping into your self-healing potential.  I’m here to help you get started.
