12 Stages of Healing with Network Spinal
Colors of healing
Stages one through seven describe the discover of what we need to heal to from, surrendering to process of healing by acknowledging our own personal role in our suffering (as well as others), and gaining the confidence to become empowered to resolve to a higher state and higher frequency.
Stage One: Suffering
Different from pain, suffering is marked by a profound awareness that “something is wrong.” Part of our being have been separated from our INNER SELF—the core of our being. This is especially occurs when we are confronted with a traumatic or chaotic event or loss. The lesson of this stage is acceptance that nothing works at this time; we are presently helpless.
Stage Two: Polarities and Rhythms
The awareness that suffering involves cycles, polarities, and patterns is the essence of this stage. It begins with the search for the “magic genie” who will save us from our distress, pain, or crisis. We try to gain power over our helplessness through external authorities, procedures, and treatments. Eventually, as we heal, we see that our genie is not so magical. We become aware of our rhythms and polarities and discover that we are partially responsible for our distress.
Stage Three: Stuck in a Perspective
This stage of healing involves the recognition that our distress is associated with being stuck in a perspective. Our concepts or our physiology have been fixated. We don’t need to know why we’ve been stuck, or what to do about it. We just need to have the simple awareness that we’ve been stuck.
Stage Four: Reclaiming our Power
This stage of healing is one in which we realize that the “script” determined by the above three stages is no longer desirable or no longer works. Initially, we are angry that we have lost our power and are determined not let it happen again. As we progress through this stage, we no longer choose to dishonor ourselves.
Stage Five: Merging with the Illusion
This stage is associated with having a strong enough sense of self to merge with the illusion which keeps us from our "light" or our "shadow". With merging, the parts of our nature we alienated, disliked, ignored is integrated into the rest of our being to create more wholeness.
Stage Six: Preparation for Resolution
In stage six we build momentum and flexibility. The alienated, traumatized, denied or redirected consciousness or energy is being prepared for discharge and resolution. We feel the tension building within ourselves as this process advances and find ways to create change and improved flexibility to continue the process.
Stage Seven: Resolution
This stage may involve a discharge of the muscular system, such as movement of the extremities, or processes such as fever, coughing, sneezing, crying, screaming, and laughing. When the discharge occurs after the previous six stages, and a sense of accomplishment, peace, and inner strength accompanies the process, then resolution has been achieved.
Along with each chapter reading is an exercise that guides the patient from the “client” state to the practice member. These activities are meant to engage the conscious mind and learn new strategies to deal with life. The Somato Respiratory Integration (SRI) help to connect the awareness of the body and mind to the breath; proper breath allows the brain and nervous systems to oscillate the information needed. One way to think of is that breath tells the system that we need to flee because we are being chased by a bear, then it tells the system to calm down we are no longer being chased by the bear. As a Network Spinal Chiropractor my goal is to help you gain a cohesion in your body. I do this with Network Spinal Entrainments and SRI.
