Holistic Pulsing – A gentle and healing body therapy

I use this exercise frequently in my Holistic Pulsing workshops; it allows the participant to become more sensitively aware of their body, to connect with it, sense the actual way it moves and the way it feels.

1. Choose music that has some energy and variety to it, I like to play African drumming music (just one track for this exercise), you will find this type of music will really gets your energy and body moving.
2. Stand in a relaxed position, close your eyes and look inward, take a few clear deep breaths and connect with your body as much as possible, breath deep into your tummy.
3. Just spend a few moments noticing what it really feels like to be in your body, in this moment. Be aware of both pleasant and unpleasant sensations, notice any aches, pains, and tightness located in your body.
4. Now begin moving with the music, starting with your feet and moving up through the legs, spine and shoulders to your head, shake each part of your body loose, taking your time moving the entire body until you being to feel a nice buzz of energy throughout your body.
5. When the track comes to an end just stop, standing, lightly swaying.  Take your awareness of a specific part of yourself. Sense its shape, its function, and its feelings.
6. If there is something you’d like to learn about that body part just ask… Feel your body and sense what is going on. Maybe some places are tight, some other relaxed. If you do feel tension, exactly how is the tension tugging; is it up, down, back?
7. Don’t rush, listen to your body, what sounds can you hear? Is it a cry, a scream, laughter? What song is it singing… is the music fast, slow, happy, does the song have words?
8. Notice the some other part of your body – just how do they feel? Do they feel alike? Visualise walking together with your partner, a young child, your father, how are you affected to your body?
9. Let your body full permission to express itself, it may perhaps be in words, feelings, sounds, movement or images.
10. Breathe slowly and deeply into the whole of your being, and observe what has changed.  When you find yourself ready to end, ground your awareness fully by taking three deep breaths.

What’s so transformative about gaining knowledge through our bodies is usually that the learning is deeply experiential and much more lasting. Enjoy your body-as-teacher, it holds deep wisdom and knowledge that it waiting to share with you, your job is to learn its language and connect.

Holistic Pulsing is a simple, yet powerful body therapy. It feels good and is so deliciously relaxing and calming for the body and mind. The initial feeling after experiencing that first session can often be an overwhelming sense that something very deep has happened, as to what, you just can’t put your finger on it.. mmm?? You soon come to realise you have been offered a gift, with Holistic Pulsing you are given the opportunity to look within, to make a personal and powerful connection with your body and mind.

People come to expereince a Holistic Pulsing session for many reasons, they may be feeling emotionally blocked, stressed or have an intention to work on themselves, on the other hand many will often, quite simply, come out of curiosity because someone has suggested it to them. What ever the reason all realise the benefit in their body immediately, they sense the relaxation, the tension has lessened, and t.

Holistic Pulsing speaks for itself. Each and every experience is personal, profound and far-reaching. Physical tensions can be seen to melt from the face and the entire body of the person lying on the table as they soften and relax with flowing pulsing sensation. Past hurts and defences that have been carried for many years can finally be released, sometimes without mindful awareness,but with a deep releasing sigh.

The body never lies, it possesses a natural wisdom, it instinctively understands how to heal itself – Ultimately it is up to you, if only you will trust and to allow your body to do its work. Holistic Pulsing can help by providing the vehicle to make that connection.
