Your Tissues
And Issues
Have you ever heard of the phrase, “the issues are in your tissues”?
This means that aches, pains, clenched jaw, irritable bowel, clog in the throat, tight chest, pit in the stomach and other physical signals may be related to the imprint of stressors, trauma, injuries, hurts, conditioning, perceptions and unexpressed emotions from your life which your body has stored as tension patterns.
Everybody has issues in his or her tissues. Usually, your body finds ways to organize around the stored tension patterns. Sometimes, however, your body loses its capacity and energy to adapt and that is when you experience symptoms such as anxiety, fatigue, impaired musculoskeletal function, trouble sleeping and a general sense of not feeling well. In some cases, issues held in tissues can lead to chronic conditions that significantly disrupt function and daily living.
Opening to your fullest experience of your body can help you to resolve some of the persistent issues in your tissues. So I invite you to adventure into yourself and slowly, gently and lovingly explore what feels stuck and what feels free, what feels like resistance to change, what feels like an emotion moving to the surface to be given a voice. I invite you to get to know more of your unique complexity and magnificence.
As a member of your health care team, I use my skills in advanced CranioSacral Therapy & SomatoEmotional Release* to hold safe, compassionate and accepting space for you to learn more about the issues in your tissues, so that you can acknowledge and address them and any related emotions, be empowered in your healing process, and reclaim your wellness and inner peace.
“If you want the moon, do not hide from the night.
If you want a rose, do not run from the thorns.
If you want love, do not hide from yourself.”
~Rumi
*The tissue based therapeutic process of SomatoEmotional Release is not psychotherapy or psychiatry. It is, however, a wonderful complement and support for your process and progress through such other therapies.
