Healing Our Presence - Stepping Up Our Game 
kathy allan 2
Kathy Allan, RN, HN-BC, HTCP/I, SEP, C-NARM


Early childhood wounds, even if long forgotten, can continue to affect our relationship to ourselves and to others. Children in a bad situation never believe that the situation is bad, they believe that they are bad and develop a survival style to avoid their pain. Many of us are continuing to live life in a survival style that no longer serves us and we yearn for a greater capacity for aliveness. 


Join us to learn how to move beyond a survival style and heal early childhood wounds. Learn how you can have a deeper connection to yourself, be a stronger healing presence for others and be a more effective tool for the healing power of the universe to flow through you.



In this workshop you will:

  • Discover the five biologically based core needs essential to physical and emotional well being: What happens to these needs when influenced by good caregivers
  • Explore the five adaptive survival styles created from early childhood wounding: Why people experience them and how to heal them.
  • Apply the 12 Steps of Healing Care: Use them to move beyond your survival style and become a stronger healing presence for others.
Healing Our Presence - Stepping Up Our Game will offer you a simple, powerful and profound spiritual guide to healing the wounds of the past. 


Meet the presenter: Kathy Allan, RN, HN-BC, HTCP/I, SEP, C-NARM, is the Founder and Education Director of the Healing Care Initiative, a multilevel education program designed to take trauma out of healthcare. She is a Board Certified Holistic Nurse and Healing Touch Instructor who has spent years studying shock trauma and developmental trauma. She is a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner certified to work with post traumatic stress and she is certified in NARM, the NeuroAffective Relational Model of healing developmental trauma. Additionally, Kathy studied with Rosalyn Bruyere for three years and also taught in the Nurses Certificate Program in Imagery.


Register today for the 2016 Healing Touch Worldwide Conference post conference workshop Healing Our Presence - Stepping Up Our Game to have the opportunity to learn from Kathy Allan and become the healer you came here to be.

FEATURED ARTICLES

Our Wildest Healing Stories

By Jeri Lawson



I have been thinking about a lunch I had at the 2014 Healing Touch Worldwide Conference in Illinois for the last two years.



At the conference, most of the meals were eaten in the largest hotel room filled with wide, round tables. I usually met several new healing friends from all over the country at every meal.



At this particular lunch, I found myself sitting with five other Healing Touch Practitioners I had never met before and my friend Savitri. Savitri has a Healing Touch practice in Fort Madison, IA. There was also a Physical Therapist who used Healing Touch, and several other healing modalities, in her PT practice in Wisconsin. One healer was a nun/hospice nurse from somewhere in the Midwest, and another woman was massage therapist/Healing Touch Practitioner like me. There was also another woman who primarily did healing work for family and friends, and a nurse who used Healing Touch at her hospital.



These women were incredibly interesting. If I lived by any one of them, I'd be having lunch with them as often as I could. After we had finished eating, and were still sitting around the table talking, one of us told an amazing story about a healing she gave a family member. One of those astounding and miraculous healing stories in which she felt her relative's spirit reenter his body during the session.



Then someone else immediately launched into a story about a client she worked with who had been in a coma, and woke up during the healing. From there we ended up going around the table sharing our "Wildest Healing Story".



It was exhilarating. The excitement at the table was building with each story. These are healings that are too phenomenal, too outrageous, to tell anyone but other healers, because they sound crazy, or like you are bragging. We didn't know each other, we didn't know each others clients, but we made sure to honor our client's confidentiality. I felt several of the women had never told their story before.



I found it so validating to hear the other healer's stories, and I was deeply touched by them all. I oddly felt relieved after telling my story, like I had been carrying it around and finally had a place let it go.



I am a big fan of our Healing Touch community. Really big fan. This is just another example of how supportive this community has been for my Healing Touch practice.  



When "miracles" happen in my healing practice, it is both thrilling and humbling at the same time. After a session, I walk around in a state of what I can only describe as gratitude and bliss for hours, sometimes days.



I write a weekly healing blog and I still feel that writing about these wild stories creates unrealistic expectations for clients and beginning healers. I guess it's time I reexamine this belief.



My intention has always been to write about how beneficial, accessible and practical hands-on-healing work can be. I see a time when Healing Touch and energy work become completely integrated in our medical culture. A time when every person going through chemotherapy has Healing Touch available to them. Can the "miraculous" become mainstream?



So, even though I'm not (yet) writing about my wildest healing stories, we know they are out there. Really out there.

Through the human soul aspects of mind, feeling, and will force felt through intentional, symbolic movement, the participant will have a direct experience of a form of connecting to High Power/Higher Self, that s/he has most likely not experienced before.



Gong Immersion "is an experience in which the sacred and psycho-acoustic healing sounds of the gongs bathe the participants with sustained waves of sound. A Gong Immersion does not require a specific belief structure or discipline of practice. All one needs to do is to be present, allowing the sound to bathe the body and carry the mind. The sounds of the gongs facilitate the movement of chi, balancing and toning the physical, emotional and spiritual bodies."
