Do you want to feel normal again so that you can do the things you love?
The power of compassion can seem subtle compared to the intense physical and emotional distress that we experience over the course of their lives. However, the experience and practice of compassion is a soft power that is cumulatively extremely powerful if applied with consistency and intentional action to regulate the nervous system. Feeling safe and loved consistently, allows us to heal and make changes in our lives, to experience more joy and love from ourselves and towards others.
True compassion involves learning to be present with and hold space for all our feelings and experiences, our pain and our suffering as well as those parts of ourselves that bring us joy, with loving kindness. Coming closer to our true selves with compassion, finally allows our experiences to be held and integrated, as they are at last held with loving kindness, providing our source of comfort from within rather than looking outside of ourselves.
What is the Compassionate Body Listening Method?
-
An approach that creates regulation in your nervous system through the comfort found from being present with your body through loving awareness
-
Unlike other nervous system regulation methods, this does not require or involve brain retraining
-
We cultivate loving awareness which is brought to the body and we inquire what the body needs directly in order to create regulation
-
You are your own best authority on what you need to create regulation- and we access this information beyond the thinking mind that is generated by your nervous system ‘dysregulation’
-
We access a deeper level of information, a deeper knowing from your intuitive self which speaks for and advocates for your body’s deepest needs
About Roxanna
In mid 2011, I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Lyme Disease. I was bed bound for eight years, followed by two years of being housebound. During those last two years, following years of experimentation, I discovered a methodology that helped me recover that I call Compassionate Body Listening.
By learning to hold my symptoms and feelings with compassion, they transformed. This method helped me to cultivate physiological calm in my body and I felt it shift into a healing state. Tests before and after working with this method, showed a marked reduction in inflammation in my body and that my Lyme had healed. This methodology has also brought about dramatic positive shifts in my emotional life and well being.
I have successfully helped others learn to apply this methodology and find relief from their symptoms. I continue to learn from this method and still apply it in my own life. I believe deeply that it is our birthright to be able to listen to our bodies and create our own comfort and nervous system regulation.
