came into my life. His perspective of Kimberly ’ s healing may also
be of interest to you:
I ’ ve been asked by Kitty to share with you a glimpse into
Kimberly ’ s healing session and why the healing technique
I used worked in Kimberly ’ s situation. The technique that I use
is a combination of visualization, manipulating the respiration
(breath work), and energy healing. I believe that the body can
heal itself, and that healing can be facilitated with the right
means of intervention.
When I fi rst met Kimberly in my offi ce, she was a very
broken and angry person, reaching for any hope of healing.
Her mental illness was causing her life to crumble in front of
her. I could see that her family was barely holding themselves
together. They desperately needed an answer.
In the fi rst appointment, I remember Kimberly and her
husband sitting across from me, sharing one of the most
heart - wrenching stories I ’ d ever heard. Between breaths of
emotion, they shared their story with me, and hours later
I was looking at one of the most challenging cases I had ever
taken on.
Kimberly had been suffering from PTSD [post - traumatic
stress disorder], which manifested with both behavioral and
psychological symptoms. The painful memories that Kimberly
was experiencing were still vivid in her mind and body. Her
mind was reliving those traumatic memories over and over,
and her body ’ s nervous system reacted to those past memo-
ries as if she had just experienced them. Her experiences
were literally trapped within her, causing immense suffering
to her body and life.
The breathing techniques that I used in her sessions
allowed Kimberly to control her breathing and dissipate and
release the painful energetic emotional charge from her body.
This occurred when memories of her traumatic past would
surface in the sessions, overwhelming her with anxiety and
panic. Our breathing is the body ’ s natural means of healing
