FLOW

“I am rooted but I flow.”
— Virginia Woolf

The flow of today’s world is fast-paced and loud and can create imbalances in the body’s rhythms. Traumatic experiences disrupt the flow of the nervous system. By quieting the mind and tending to past wounds, you restore the body’s natural state of flow. You contact your true essence, your level of consciousness rises, your energy elevates, your being enlivens. You welcome joy and happiness back into your body home and begin to trust the flow of life.

“All that you are seeking is also seeking you. If you lie still, sit still, it will find you. It has been waiting for you for a long time.”
— Clarissa Pinkola Estes

The ancient practices of meditation and yoga are tools we can learn that help us slow down and restore homeostasis within us. Modern techniques, like EMDR, reprocess painful memories so that the nervous system can recalibrate. These practices, many of which are now fully embraced and encouraged by most of today’s medical professionals, support healing by:

  • increasing both physical and emotional flexibility;

  • boosting immunity and increasing blood flow;

  • improving coordination, attention, balance, memory, digestion and sleep;

  • regulating emotional responses and strengthening the nervous system;

  • easing aches and pains;

    you learn to be fully present with yourself and experience firsthand your fluctuating emotional and physical landscapes.

“Flow is an optimal state of consciousness, a peak state where we both feel and perform our best. Your whole being is involved and you’re using your skills to the utmost. The best moments in our lives usually occur while in flow — when a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile. And, this is when we grow.”
— Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
