BodyTalk™ – The Link to Wellness

Donna Burick, Advanced PaRama Certified BodyTalk Practitioner

Change happens at an energetic level – true transformation is not a physical, medical or intellectual process. Sometimes this concept is difficult to describe because we humans tend to trust what we can see, feel, touch and taste. We don’t look beyond what is in front of us to see the deeper level from which all life emanates. For example, we think consciously that fire, the thing we can see, hear, and feel, is what moves us from the place of coldness to a place of warmth – but in truth, it is the energy of the fire, not the fire itself, that is the transforming agent.

BodyTalk™ is an energy therapy that transforms your life on a deep and lasting level. This system isolates and moves through energetic imbalances in your body, mind, and spirit so that your natural healing can occur. BodyTalk is often described as the missing link between the traditional Western practice of prescribing medicine and the emotional/intellectual practice of talking about your issues in therapy. Both these methods are effective, but BodyTalk provides an energetic element that is missing so that total, profound, and permanent transformation can happen. For example, if you have been prescribed medicine for a sluggish thyroid, your body will benefit only to the level that the medicine alone can assist you. However with BodyTalk as a complementary treatment, the energetic blocks that have been put in place over time that are combating your thyroid are addressed – thus yielding more effective, holistic results. Or perhaps there are issues in your life that you have been seeing a therapist for. You have talked about them, struggled with them, understand where they have come from, and can even recognize them when they spring up. You may have made great progress on an intellectual level and yet you wonder why these issues still persist. BodyTalk supports your therapy by isolating the energetic patterns and blocks associated with your issues, then releases them so you can experience full and lasting healing.

Describing BodyTalk is like describing fire. We point to the actual physical manifestation of fire and we think that it is creating heat. We talk about the smell of the fire, the sounds the fire makes, the light the fire casts – these things are like how we experience the tangible practices of Western medicine and traditional therapy. However, BodyTalk is like the energy of the fire – the intangible essence that is the source of the transformative effect. It is at this energetic level that BodyTalk supports your life changes. All aspects of the fire are true, so the tangible methods of medical and psychological therapies are effective. But to carry the analogy all the way through, the intangible methods of BodyTalk’s energy therapy is also a key component of the results you are looking for in your life. BodyTalk is the essence that encompasses all methods as a supportive catalyst without drama or effort. The body’s innate wisdom knows how to balance and heal if just given a clear path. BodyTalk clears the energetic blocks to create an environment where your healing can occur.

The uniqueness of the BodyTalk system is its fundamental principal of allowing your own innate wisdom to direct the healing process. This guiding principal assures that each session is totally focused on your most pressing priorities. BodyTalk Practitioners utilize your body’s biofeedback responses to determine which systems are not energetically synchronized with the whole. Poor health, chronic illnesses, anxiety, headaches, stomach problems, pain, and allergic reactions are all indicators that your natural state of well-being is in need of harmonizing. The BodyTalk protocol is a system that consults your innate wisdom to determine which aspects of your being are poorly linked together, and in what order they need to be reconnected to bring you back to wholeness. The advantage of using a protocol that is a guiding framework for your own innate wisdom is you receive much more powerful, effective results. The fluidity of the protocol allows the BodyTalk practitioner to relink your systems in a customized fashion. For example, three minus two and two minus three do not yield the same result. The same is true of the complexity of human beings; the manner and order that systems are restructured to communicate with one another affect the effectiveness of your results.

This internationally recognized and practiced modality is effective for the full spectrum of concerns. Carl Jung said, “the meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances; if there is any reaction, both are transformed.” The relationship I have as a BodyTalk practitioner with my clients creates this same synergy needed to open up the space for transformation to take place. For example, my case studies as a BodyTalk practitioner range from chronically ill clients to people who are maintaining their health. In a typical week I witness the transformation of children with low self-esteem, attention deficit disorders, anger issues, and severe phobias. Adults who are experiencing severe physical pain are guided to a pain free space. BodyTalk aids in the resolution of issues that manifest as migraines, chronic menstrual problems and multiple sclerosis, thus alleviating the need to further experience these conditions. Some of my most powerful sessions have been with clients who are experiencing the stress of life’s transitions; clients who are grieving a loss, reestablishing their self-love, releasing their addictions, or determining their life’s direction. In addition, there are clients who are healthy and successful; yet use BodyTalk as a preventative medicine and/or a method of overcoming work or relationship issues that are blocking their paths to success and joy. You owe it to yourself and to those who care about you to experience this powerful modality. Allow your own innate opportunity to rebalance, reenergize, and reconstruct your life into all that you were meant to be, do and have.
