Healing When you change what you are doing – body messages alter.
When you allow the past to leave, the scars and the traumas are dissolved
Holistic multi lineage, multi modality transformative body and soul aligning
How did I get to here?
Working on desperate women mainly, but anyone who fell through the standard cracks in care. I asked different questions, did not take ‘NO’ for an answer, and kept searching when all others stopped. I knew that the body heals itself – we only needed to follow life.
Gentling Way aim is to subtly release what has been held, often all of life, affecting all perceptions in all levels of being. Noticing that in all womb work, and before that, the acupuncture that was my passion, ignored the life a person had had, leading them to where they were somewhat bashed about, by having lived their life. Relieving what was held in scars (their stories), adhesions (their inability to move through life well), and their coccygeal catastrophies, we found womb (mn have prostates, women still have the energy and spirit of womb, even if the physical is gone). , and total body alignment. Move what has up until now – has been STUCK. Effective healing after C Section, or any abdominal surgery: often decades later, for womb/pelvic happiness, and an easier life. Structural and a visceral incidents – accidents, operations, incidents: clearing whatever is blocked in your body.
How?
Using whatever we can, together we undo the life residue and dramas that have till now, held your body STUCK. In letting go, your clarity, your health and your life – sets you FREE.
My life journey – always followed Nature . . Always different – a maverick/outlier/way finder
This life has been totally shaped by my maternity, having become an accidental mum in 1977, I gave it my best shot. I could see that my baby was possibly going to go down the chronic life long illness path of his dad – so I made sure that this was not likely. Starting with only natural – no add ins – no jabs, no foreign ways – he had a mammalian upbringing – we had no cash, so he was worn, breastfed and reared by his parents till school. He missed out on his dad’s horrendous asthma and eczema (not given the beginning his dad had helped heaps). He grew strong (and still at 49 has a thicket of head hair – whereas his dad was bald at 28 when I met him). How come? Inner wealth – growing from both sides of the family – generations back had lost their hair/been sickly. . . Head hair is a measure of inner strength – he was retrieved.
My passion has always been untangling what holds the structure, the function and thus the person hostage.
Why I developed the Gentling Way
- After a lifetime of assisting others (having heard their stories of woe, or medical forcing and of that not working, and of all those decades of dispensing care and tending /touching people’s bodies and souls: deeply, the Gentling Way was birthed.
- Always a hands-on worker, I discovered that the more gentle, less pressure, the more profound the result.
- Designing acupuncture colleges and courses post graduate in all hard areas (infertility prior to IVF clinics – and now after the sperm debacle when almost NONE are fertile), AIDS – prior to medications, cancer – when chemo etc have failed – and difficult/’high risk’ pregnancy and post surgical repairs, I am well versed at being the last in the long line of people who have had maybe one piece of your healing puzzle.
- Let us put ALL the pieces on the table – right side up.
Life Experiences
I started this path with my 6 week old baby in tow. I began with what had helped his dad – the acupuncture course, many touch and vibrational therapies, additionally learning all that I could about natural eating, consciously being, uncovering ways to improve life and how to live well. It all segued into my lifetime of serving others for the same outcome – the best possible. The maternal university I attended had me going back for more – 4 times in 18 years.
Along this journey I picked up diverse skills to meet the life demands made of me – vaccine damaged children (and self as it turns out), highly difficult social and life experiences, and of course the need to rescue my massively brain injured precious daughter (from 1986).
