"It needs courage, and it needs grace",
wrote Ken Wilber in his biography "Grace and Grit" about the path which his beloved wife Treya and he walked together - a spiritual path and a path of continuous new relating to what is, and the deep path of devoting to healing.
When we feel that we ready to turn towards the painful, unintegrated places in us, we often need patience, persistence and a commitment to stay and keep walking. And often we need an empathetic witness and open hearted professional to accompany our steps and provide a space of relating.
I encounter you on an eye to eye level, trust your inner knowledge and your resonance with what makes sense to you. On the base of somatic mindfulness, I support you to respect your own pace and perception of your genuine needs and perceptions.
Something iimportant for me is to discern between a spiritual path and spiritual bypassing as a way to use spiritual concepts or projections in order to "not feel" or to avoid unpleasant emotions or states. Instead, I invite you to come into contact with your genuine feelings behind any concept. When they have the permission and space to appear and to be, very often something already changes.

The appraoch of the Transparent Communication, inspired by Thomas Hübl, accompanies my personal and professional life over the past ten years. It has revealed itself as a precious tool and approach through which we can experience genuine interest and truthfulness and experience to be reall seen, instead of navigating in concepts and ideas. We can learn to speak "from" our experience instead of speaking "about" it which allows a different form of being open and transparent which can support in creating our relational spaces and which can be experienced as deeply human and healing.
Transparent Communication supports us to refine our inner perception and our sense for how we relate to our inner and the outer world. It also supports us in our "shadow work" as relating to previously isolated places in us becomes possible in the relational field.
And finally Transparent Communication raises our awareness for being embedded in a wider consciousness.
“Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness."
Peter Levine
Most of us have experienced situations that felt overwhelming. When we have supporting human connections surrounding us and solid ressources, we often manage to integrate those experiences. But sometimes we don't fully recover, and then part of our life energy remains stuck. For Peter Levinde, the founder of Somatic Experiencing, a "trauma" is not the incident itself but that unreleased energy in our nervous system.
Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a basic method which may help to integrate shock trauma, chronical stress or other overwhelming experiences as accidents or nature catastrophies. It offers a gentle approach to the experience, respecting the person's individual pace and capability.
On the base of safety, the experience can be renegotiated, and the original life energy can be restored. When this happens the energy that once "froze" can fulfill itself. Our sense of feeling safe in our body can return and we find back to the flow and river of life.
The experience itself does not have to be retold or undergone again in an overwhelming way. We don't even need to have conscious memories. Our nervous system in our amazingly wise body knows all the information we need.
In Somatic Experiencing we work in the safe space of the here and now.
“The spontaneous movement in all of us is towards connection, health, and aliveness. No matter how withdrawn and isolated we have become, [...], just as a plant spontaneously moves toward sunlight, there is in each of us an impulse moving toward connection and healing.”
Laurence Heller
NARM is a ressource oriented method to integrate relational and attachment trauma and develop agency - our sense, how only we ourselves can grasp and embrace it - for one's own abilities to act in life.
Step by step old identifications that served us in earlier times and became habits but don't anymore can be released and replaced by new ways of relating that are more aligned with our capabilities today and as adults and with our true wishes. A shift in how we look at ourselves and the world can create significant changes in the way we lead out lives.
In NARM, as in SE, we don't work with the story of the past but with what reveals itself in the here and now of the present moment.
