Emotional Freedom

Essence of healing your emotions

Emotional healing is a process of identifying your emotional wounds, coming most likely from the events that happened in the past, acknowledging the impact of those wounds and consciously freeing yourself from the impact.

This process allows you to recognise your inner blocks and re-gain inner strength to realign your feelings and emotions

There could be many instances that have hurt you emotionally. It could be related to parenting, schooling, loss of a loved one, broken relationship and so on…, however, those incidents are not accessible to you. When you begin your journey of healing, these incidents start unlayering, initiating the process of healing.

Structure of a healing session

Your healing journey begins as soon as you decide to look into your inner being. Your therapist will be there with you all along. A broad overview of the healing sessions would be:

• Getting to know: Initial discussion with the therapist about the issues you are going through.
• The therapist explains to you the theme of the issues
• Choose the therapy: The client and the therapist mutually agree on the best healing modality to be followed, according to the intensity of the issue
• Timeline : you will get a clear guideline on how the sessions will progress and what to expect in the sessions.
• Post session care: Practices, if any, to be done pre and post session will also be shared.   

How to identify your emotional wounds?

While most of us have scars from emotional setbacks, many are unaware of them. If you look deeper into your life, look at the way your life is moving.

• Notice the hindrances,failures, compulsions, procrastination, or indecisiveness you face.
• You can look into your addictions and failed efforts to come out of those addictions.
• Observe your need to please others.
• Think about the situations where you lose confidence even when you are capable to handle those situations.
• It’s worth thinking about your relationship with your parents and siblings, is it a happy relationship, do you look forward to seeing them?
• Look at your love relationship patterns/break-ups. Observe your thoughts when you are sitting idle.
• What is the theme of those thoughts? Insecurity? Fear? Feeling to run away from present life? Feeling stuck? Frustrated? Anxious? Or it could be a combination of all these feelings.

We often have tanked up emotions that we have accumulated since the day we are born. If you related to any such feelings, then you are emotionally wounded, hurt!

Effects of emotional wounds?

People having unaddressed emotions might have difficulty in progressing in their career, choosing the right partner, maintaining relationships, holding up to their dignity in certain situations, and respecting their boundaries. It will be difficult for them to say No to someone even when they know it is the right thing to do. They lack self-love, cannot put their needs over others. It becomes a necessity for them to please others and they choose to suffer because of it.

How healing works?

The journey of emotional healing is difficult and emotionally painful. It is a very intense process. This is a journey into the past to reach out to the traumatic situation that your mind chose to ignore because it was too difficult to bear, it was too painful to acknowledge. There are very deep layers of negative experiences and you are befooled by your conscious mind that you have successfully put them behind you. But the impact of those experiences can be seen clearly in your day-to-day life.

This difficult yet incredible process begins with accepting your need for emotional healing. Thereafter you choose to meet a healer. Both of you need to trust each other and establish a rapport. There must be a non-judgemental space. A healer will choose a healing modality best suitable for you.
