Stress Reduction, Mind Body Healing, Energy Healing, Energy Psychology

We are complex beings made up of thoughts, feelings and energy as well as flesh and bone. Who we are today is largely the result of our experience: our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual history. When we are stressed, tired, ill or unhappy, treating the symptoms of our ailment may afford temporary relief, but often does not solve the problem. We must address our whole being and erase old reactive patterns from our nervous systems so we can experience optimal health, authentic well-being and a life we love to live.

Understanding the source of our physical and/or emotional pain is a first step to healing. However, this awareness alone is not enough to facilitate the freedom and wholeness we seek. We need methods that help to release our acquired mental patterns, and emotional and physical pain locked in the mind and body to release underlying causes of stress and lack of wellbeing.
These methods not only heal but also strengthen and provide access to our innate wisdom. The latter allows development of an expansive authenticity that embraces both our human and spiritual natures. Mind-Body Energetics is such an approach.

Mind-Body Energetics blends principles and practices from Western Science and Eastern Wisdom traditions. Treating and harmonizing body, mind and spirit addresses the underlying causes of stress and illness.

Mind-Body Energetics can help you to:
• Reduce stress
• Enhance health and well-being
• Develop greater vitality and joy
• Embrace self-love and acceptance
• Develop inner peace and intuition
• Experience higher consciousness
Achieve inner harmony and balance
Cultivate resilience and stress hardiness

Karen Kallie offers individual sessions and seminars that blend Eastern and Western methods to provide you with a holistic "toolbox for life". You can find recordings containing some of Karen's information, tools and techniques in the shop. The shop can be accessed from the navigation bar at the top of this page.

What is the Heart of Deep Self Care?

Researchers are reporting that it seems that the heart has a mind of its own and is a major factor in how we perceive and respond to the world.

In any case it is clear that these two are in a very intricate two way conversation and we can benefit from knowing how to participate!

Tips for Improving Your Energy

318871_2101598307318_440961195_nEnergy Medicine is gradually making its way into the mainstream. Reiki and Therapeutic Touch are being used in hospitals with increasing regularity. Other vibrational healing methods such as Aromatherapy, Homeopathy, Massage, and Music Therapy are also being integrated into traditional medical settings.
All these techniques have a common foundation: awareness that human beings are made up of multiple interactive energy systems. These energies interpenetrate our bodies and extend outside them as well.
Chinese and Indian Medicine have always taken the state of this energy body into account when designing a treatment plan for a person because the state of this energy field is believed to be the template upon which the rest of the body-mind’s functions rely.

These invisible energies shape the way we think and feel. In turn disruptions in the flow of energy through our systems affect our thoughts and feelings.

How to Let Go of Anxiety and Master Change

The mind is awareness on a continuum. Think about it as a river that flows and your experience of it is a function of where you place your attention. Whatever area you focus on becomes reality for that time with all its attendant resources and ecology. If you focus on the portion of the river that is congested with negative thoughts, unresolved feelings and dire predictions then that is what you have to work with. If you go upstream and contact the mouth of the river that flows out of pristine mountain streams, you have a different reality and resources to deal with. Just the power of the renewed flow headed downstream can help clear the blockages downstream. But even more powerful than that is the sense of renewal, shift in perspective and inherent power present
in the point of origination of the river. And so it is with our minds.
