The STIRLING METHOD is suited for all levels of fitness and physical considerations, whether beginner or advanced in practice, whether limited mobility or full range of motion, various exercise postures are demonstrated for personal choice. Everyone is unique in physical abilities. The Energy Body is universal. Participants identify where Energy is held or blocked as the physical body moves, encouraging the held or blocked Energy to release. Nothing is forced, neither physically or energetically.

The physical body is complex. Not only the delicate nature of it’s systems and how they work together, but the aspects of what is beyond these systems that cannot be measured or scientifically evaluated. My life’s studies, both as a nurse and metaphysical practitioner indicates both these systems hold equal power in relation to our overall well being. This includes our ability to regulate our emotions (brain); our ability to empathize for or with self and others (being); our ability to care for our physical form via nutrition and activities (body); one without the other only addresses part of our requirements.

Of course, individuals’ methods of participating in fulfilling these requirements for well being differ. We are not meant to be “all the same.” The goal is to be Holistically Whole using the methods that appeal. For example, bike riding does not “work” for me, yet for many it is the best and most fun way to stay physically well. The foods we choose to eat are often cultural, this must be taken into consideration when promoting good nutritional health. Levels of need for social interactions differ for people, however it has been scientifically proven that all living beings need a degree of social interaction for optimal mental and emotional health. We all know there are many ways people participate in spiritual practices for connection and belief in something bigger than themselves. As an adult, mindful meditation has been my spiritual practice method. Specifically healing the Energy Body.

The word trauma is common place in the mental health narrative today. The Oxford dictionary describes trauma as: “A physical injury or wound, or a powerful psychological shock that has damaging effects.” At one time, not long ago, only those from war torn countries or veterans were considered to have experienced emotional trauma.

In 1980, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) added PTSD to the third edition of its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III) nosologic classification scheme (2). Although controversial when first introduced, the PTSD diagnosis has filled an important gap in psychiatric theory and practice.  https://www.ptsd.va.gov/professional/treat/essentials/history_ptsd.asp

It is clear to me now that I struggled with PTSD from childhood events. My own Energy system was in great need of healing. I could hardly identify my heart chakra’s location, let alone it’s energy flow. It took intentional practice for my heart to fully relax, trust, and open. As the flow of energy gently and slowly increased through my heart chakra, my body’s nervous system calmed and regulated. This was, and still is a profound healing response. It cannot be scientifically measured or evaluated except through the field of Bioscience that recognizes the health value in Energy work via patents spoken feedback.

Being a retired nurse I know the value of and necessity for prescription medicine. However, no pharmaceutical could possibly heal to completion a heart closed down due to PTSD. Mask symptoms – yes, ease depression – yes, but heal to completion – no. Overcoming PTSD can be accomplished by therapy, loving religious beliefs, and supportive people. From my experience, I would not have been able to reach the systemic trauma buried deep within me without identifying and healing my Energy Body, the end result being a Heart Opening and calming of my body’s nervous system.

I cannot tell you how excited I am to be bringing this valuable information to you. I’m also excited to answer any and all questions. This is my specialty.
