SoulCollage® Card

The Awakening

From shadow to sun,

Poised in color to take flight,

Challenged to emerge.

I am one who has spent time in secretive hiding, the bursting forth of color brings with it a new song, like the call of the bird wanting to set out on an adventure and fly. My soul moves forward into this awakened sense of wonder, tentatively, but with quiet courage.

Life Coaching

A life coach is professionally trained to help you maximize your potential and reach your desired results. In a typical life coaching session, you will set the agenda, we will reflect on your needs, desires, challenges and talents, and from there create a plan to help you achieve your goals. Life coaching helps you to identify where you are and where you want to go. The client is always in the driver’s seat! 

Life coaching also provides a pathway to confidently explore potential growth.  It is a forward motion process, encouraging, but also holding you accountable for the active role you must take in order to create the opportunity for change in your own life.

Healing Touch

Healing Touch is a relaxing, nurturing, heart-centered energy therapy that uses gentle, intentional touch to assist in balancing physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being.  It is classified by the National Institute of Health as a biofield therapy.

Practitioners utilize a collection of standardized, noninvasive techniques to clear, energize, and assist in balancing the energy field, thereby supporting one’s inherent ability to heal.  As a complementary modality, it is safe for all ages and may be integrated with standard medical care.

Research suggests that Healing Touch can be beneficial for stress reduction, calming anxiety, reducing symptoms of depression, decreasing pain, strengthening the immune system, enhancing recovery from surgery, deepening spiritual connection, creating a sense of well-being, and supporting resiliency.

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese form of energy healing which utilizes what is referred to as the universal life force, or higher power.  “Rei” is translated as “sacred” or “spirit” and “Ki” is the life force that flows through all living things.  Reiki, or life force energy, works to support healing by energizing and rebalancing the body, mind, and spirit. 

Reiki can be used for self-care or for the well-being of others. Learning Reiki is a wonderful gateway to exploring energy healing. In the tradition of Reiki, the flow of healing energy is passed from a Reiki Master to a student by means of an energetic action referred to as an attunement.

Healing the Wounds of the Soul

Life circumstances and events can subject us to the wounding of the soul.  These wounds, large or small, become energetically entrenched in the mind, body, emotions, and spirit.  They are heart-felt and often impede our ability to move forward and heal in such a way as to support an awakening to the fullness of who we can become. 

 There are important holistic interconnections between the mind, body and spirit.  When trauma, or wounding occurs, the system is rendered out of harmony, or out of balance.  These woundings may take the form of emotional, mental, psychological or physical distress. Ultimately, they impact our life-force energy and create challenges due to an occurrence that has fractured the mind-body-spirit connection. 

Wounds of the soul render us less capable of standing in the fullness of our own personal power and in the innate wisdom of the unique potential that resides in each of us, they hold us back from becoming the best version of ourselves possible. The wounding can accumulate in strength over time, or lie dormant, and safely tucked away, until it is ready to be released and addressed.  

 Using a combination of life coaching and energy healing, Amenie’s approach to helping others heal wounds of the soul grew out of her personal experience of healing old wounding, a result of relationship damage. Her personal journey of reawakening and transformation gave birth to this work.

Emotional Freedom Technique

Emotional Freedom Technique, often referred to as EFT or tapping, is a form of energetic work based on tapping on specific acupressure points on the body while simultaneously using verbal messaging.  This combination creates a shift in perception and can rapidly alter how one experiences, or feels about, a certain situation.  It can be used for pain management, relaxation, stress/anxiety reduction, or to instill a sense of moving forward in the direction of one’s choosing.

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the practice of using essential oils for therapeutic benefit. Essential oils are plant extracts made by steaming or pressing various parts of a plant (flowers, bark, leaves or fruit) to capture the compounds that produce fragrance and healing attributes. It can take several pounds of a plant to produce a small bottle of essential oil.

An essential oil is extremely concentrated and chemically complex.  It is the life force energy of the plant, used to assist in bringing the body, mind and spirit back into balance, and it can encourage the holistic healing of both people and animals.  The use of essential oils is an ancient art. It has resurfaced in our time to help support health and wellness.

When inhaled, the scent molecules in essential oils travel from the olfactory nerves directly to the brain and especially impact the amygdala, the emotional center of the brain.  Essential oils can also be absorbed by the skin, most efficiently, by applying them with a carrier oil. 

SoulCollage®

Created by Seena Frost and based in Jungian, Gestalt and Psychosynthesis work, SoulCollage® is an engaging, enjoyable, relaxing, and creative process of collaging images onto 5 x 8 inch cards and then allowing the cards to speak to us from the first-person perspective.  This process taps into our own subconscious awareness to provide us with unexpected insights into ourselves and the word around us, and the cards can be used in many different ways.  Typically, we don't use words in making SoulCollage® cards - brain research tells us that the prefrontal cortex (conscious awareness) responds more slowly and reacts to words first, and the subconscious mind, which works much more rapidly, responds immediately to imagery.  When we create cards choosing images that resonate with us, we are able to access messages for ourselves that are not always readily available in other ways.
