BodyTalk In 2003, I was introduced to the BodyTalk System. The timing was perfect. I had by then acquired so many techniques that my tool box was getting almost too full. It was challenging to know when to use which technique since many claimed to provide the same results. In addition, while multiple methods addressed the mind-body connection, the timing of when to pursue that route seemed too vague and subjective.The BodyTalk system provided a unique cataloging program to help organize and expand my modality tool box. It added numerous additional energy based techniques to address healthcare issues ranging from musculo-skeletal symptoms to infections to belief systems that might be holding one back from healing. It also helped to guide me through my growing modality repertoire and assist me with choosing the best possible approach to use at any given time, by providing a gentle, simple biofeedback technique. Based on the theory that the imbalances arise from a lack of proper communication and synchronization, once the areas are identified, hand placement is used for focus to the involved areas and communication is stimulated through a sequence of tapping first on the head and then on the heart. The tapping on the head is thought to alert the body-mind to the problem and stimulate rebalancing, while the tapping on the heart is done to help store the change. BodyTalk Access After learning the BodyTalk System in 2003, I found that not only was it useful for my patients, but also for my family. The fast-aid technique worked wonders on sprains and bruises my daughters would get in sports and the BodyChemistry technique was amazing for taking care of viruses and reactions to toxins and allergens. Antibiotics were rarely used in our family after BodyTalk was a part of our health care plan. Fortunately a one day class was formed and we began to teach some of the techniques to non-health care providers. While I no longer teach this class, I do teach the techniques to my patients as indicated. The hallmark basic technique of the BodyTalk system is “Tapping out the Cortices”. Here is a YouTube demonstration of this:Learn the BodyTalk Cortices technique: |
