The first thing in counselling

The heart is one of the easiest doors to access being. Each day in all my trainings and retreats begins with a guided heart meditation. The meditation is spoken spontaneously, yet the main content stays the same. It helps to move beyond the busy minds into emptiness and silence. In order for healing and transformation to happen, we need to be able to meet the other on a deeper level than the content of mind. And to really meet on a deep level, we first need to go deep within ourselves and find emptiness and silence here. We then fall into synchronicity with the emptiness and silence of the other. Synchronicity happens when the "emptinesses" of two or more people become one. A resonance begins to happen on the level of being.

Their love, intimacy, trust and fulfillment can influence all other realms of relating.

In many Japanese Zen temples, there is a beautiful collection of paintings called "The Ten Bulls of Zen." It is a series of paintings depicting the whole story of the search for enlightenment. They are a wonderful metaphor illustrating our journey towards

Each Layer Affects All the Other Layers

All the layers of the body-mind are intimately connected with each other. The structure in any layer has an effect on the structures of all the other layers. That is why different therapy techniques that initially may be working on one layer, will also affect all the other layers and the whole body-mind system. The more transparent the body-mind becomes, the easier it is for the being to shine through.
