Moving from the Source is a movement based therapeutic healing process. It invites increasing coherence between inner alignment and outer expression, creating space for stuck processes to unfold into greater health, vitality and embodiment. This inner alignment can help connect you to your core energy meaning that what is stuck or held can more easily find a way to release, safely and naturally. Moving from the Source can help you to deepen into a capacity to listen to and be with your body rhythm. It is from this listening, that healing, awareness and more capacity for presence and flow arises.

​

Moving from the Source is greatly inspired by the practice of Rhythmic Healing which was developed by Ruth Noble with whom I trained and studied from 2002 until her death in 2013. My Moving from Source practice is also built on many years of previous training and personal study. Notably as a 'Move into Life' teacher with Sandra Reeve as well as with Suprapto Suryodarmo both in Java and the UK. My gratitude goes to these teachers, alongside the generous sharing and support of my friends and colleagues in our movement practice. 

 

Core Principles of Moving from the Source

 

Trust in Your Rhythm 

As you connect with your natural rhythm the more you can align yourself with your core nature. This may also help you to attune with the environment within which you live, and with those around you.

 

Embodied Presence

Becoming more present in your body is both at the root of, and can be a route to healing. At the essence of Rhythmic Healing is the intention to receive yourself just as you are.

 

Heart Connection

Rhythmic Healing encourages a deepening of your connection to your heart, which can bring a growing sense of compassion for yourself and others.

 

Readiness to Heal

As you become more congruent with your own rhythm, change happens when you are ready. This means that, for example, if stuck patterns are held in the body they may release when you have developed the inner resources to let them go. In this way Rhythmic Healing can be a safe and natural way to work. 

​

Expression

As you deepen into your natural way of being, we also explore how to extend your language of movement. This can encourage a growing confidence in how you embody and express yourself.

 

Fulfilment

As you begin to trust the wisdom of your body, following what brings you joy and satisfaction can take you to a place of growing fulfilment in your life. 

 

Moving from the Source may help: 

 

 - To bring together your inner knowing with your outer action

 - To connect the flow of your spiritual life into your daily life 

 - When you feel anxious or depressed

 - When you feel stuck or lost in your life

 - When you feel a disconnection from yourself or others

 - When there is a loss of clear identity or direction

 - When you feel held back by fears

 - When you become overwhelmed by feelings and emotion

 

Frequently asked questions:

 

What happens in a session?

 

Moving from Source sessions are usually 75 minutes long. This gives time for you to settle into yourself and your body. Each session is different, however, usually we will have a short conversation at the beginning about what you are bringing that day. From there I aim to support you to drop more deeply into the flow of energy that is arising in you. This can be in different ways, often through guided meditation or a simple structured exercise that gives you a starting point for more exploration. The main focus is to acknowledge and welcome what is here, with a spirit of enquiry and curiosity. Moving from the Source is a transpersonal healing discipline. My intention is to hold whatever arises within my connection with Source and to support your capacity to open to the wider holding field that enables increasing love and self-compassion.

How often do I need to come?

 

Having sessions at regular intervals tends to encourage a sense of safely and hence often a deeper level of work. Occasion sessions can also be very supportive, especially for those familiar with working in this way. At your first session we can decide what is most appropriate for you.

My Training and background.

 

I have been working with movement healing with individuals and groups since 1995. I originally studied with Sandra Reeve and then trained with her to become a 'Move into Life' teacher. I also studied with Prapto Suryodarmo in Java and the UK between 1991 and 1997. Both teachers have greatly inspired my work. In 2009 I completed my training in Rhythmic Healing with Ruth Noble taking this work more into the area of therapeutic healing. Sadly Ruth died in July 2013. The small group of graduates who were fortunate enough to train with her now support each other to continue with this work. 

Over time I have developed this work to include not just our inner rhythms but to be in relationship with the rhythms of nature. This is inspired by my training and practice of Plant Spirit Medicine. In my experience this brings a deeper capacity for healing.
