ABOUT DANA
Somatic Experiencing
This modality of healing works with your nervous system to release unprocessed stress and trauma.
What does this mean? Our systems are wired to respond to stress and threats in our environment. In daily life, this happens countless times a day. Then there are the bigger stresses and trauma like losing a loved one, injuries, attacks, socials injustices to name a few. When we don't process these events or stressors that stay in our body and wreck havoc on our health.
During a session, that is usually of 50 to 60 minutes, we explore the body’s memory of a difficult event rather than retelling a story. Trauma is not so much about the event, but rather the physiological imprint the experience leaves in the body. We will focus on freeing energy stuck in the body and allowing the nervous system to reorganize which can include increase capacity to self-regulate and to access greater vitality and life energy.
Plant Spirit Medicine
Plant Spirit Medicine (PSM) is a type of spiritual healing that combines the traditions of ancient Chinese Five Element Medicine and the indigenous practice of using plant spirits for healing. It is an extremely powerful and yet subtle form of healing. The PSM Healer calls on the extraordinary healing abilities of the plants to bring balance and harmony into your life, removing whatever is standing your way.
Although this is not a common-practice in today's society, plant spirit medicine has been practiced, in one way or another, across the world throughout history. These days quick fixes and band-aid solutions are abundant. This medicine is different; it goes directly to the core of the individual – to the imbalance or place that needs healing - delivering exactly what is needed. Each treatment builds upon the last, laying the foundation for a healthy, balanced, and joy-filled life.
This medicine awakens and enlivens connection: to one’s self, to others and to the natural world, which is life-changing!
