Your Body Reacts Before You Do
A name comes up in conversation or your phone lights up with a message from a certain person.
Something happens in your chest before you know why.
By the time you catch up, your body has already answered. You have gotten good at hiding it, and no better at stopping it.
The Response Comes Quicker Than the Thought
What you are dealing with is not held in memory as an account of events. It is held as responses.
Those responses fire faster than thought in a system that built them for good reasons, usually long ago when they were exactly what was needed right then.
That system is engrained in your body.
The System Has Never Been Talked Out of Anything
That system does not read.
That is why your insight has been accurate and useless at the same time.
You can be entirely right about your own history in the same second your body has already decided otherwise.
Your Body Has Been Holding This a Long Time
It took a position years ago and will keep holding it until something helps it stand down.
This work moves slower than a fix and considerably faster than most people expect.
A free 15-minute phone call is where you find out what has been happening in your body and whether the work I do fits as a solution to what you are carrying.
The sessions are 55 minutes on video anywhere in California. They begin with a call to (805) 635-2153.
Start with 15 Minutes on the Phone
Before you commit to anything, you tell me roughly what is going on. I ask a few questions. Then I tell you honestly what I think, including whether I am the right person for it.
If I am not, I will try to point you toward someone who is, and I would rather do that in fifteen minutes than in six weeks. You are also interviewing me.
We will talk about what is not moving, and what it would take to move it.
