The book begins with vignettes of the author’s journey to discovering energy psychotherapy, which combines relational talking therapy with self-applied energy methods. By clearing the dense energy of trauma from the body – a vibrational approach which is a new paradigm in therapy – it explores how suffering can be transformed to bring balance and wholeness. This evidence-based work integrates physical, psychological, archetypal, transgenerational and transpersonal aspects of a person’s experience, including consciousness itself. Drawing on her experience as a psychotherapist, musician, and meditator, the book synthesises ideas from neuroscience, epigenetics, biology, quantum physics, psychoanalytic theory, spirituality, trauma, and the links between the body, mind and consciousness. It is of interest both for therapists and the public who are curious to learn these self -help energy techniques to incorporate into their daily lives. The book provides an overview of how to use energy methods, supported by clinical vignettes throughout. The quantum approach is characterised by the effortlessness of ‘ease and grace’ which brings significant healing and furthers the current planetary awakening and is similar to the ‘flow’ of the Dzogchen teachings. The book celebrates the positive shift in consciousness occurring for New Earth and the raising of our frequency to bring peace and joy to the world.
