My Experience with Journey Therapy
What is Journey Therapy?
"The Journey" was devised by Brandon Bays, an extraordinary American woman who was diagnosed with cancer and successfully healed herself while developing this body of work. She has a huge range of programs running all over the world – please visit her web site: The Journey for more information. It is recommended that you read Brandon’s book “The Journey” before booking a Journey Process, so that you really understand what’s behind this work and how a Journey Process flows. That way you can decide to go ahead in full knowledge of what to expect.
We know that the effect of past issues and experiences do not just go away. Rather they can resurface again and again and become almost who you are. This doesn’t have to be the case, because experiences aren’t who you are, but only things that happened to you and around you. When the body experiences an emotional trauma, no matter how insignificant it may appear, our cells take on an imprint which is passed on throughout our regular cellular regeneration. Journey Therapy clears these cellular memories and allows the body to heal. Emotional blockages and limiting beliefs are released. Physical pain, so often linked to our emotional past, can be diminished. Real peace and rest is invited.
A Journey Process involves gentle relaxation techniques, and the use of Gestalt theory and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), allowing you to access cellular memories, opening into past experiences which may have shaped your expectations and beliefs about yourself and the world. You are then able to look at the truth of what really happened, what was really experienced by others involved, “empty out” your emotional triggers, remove old outgrown and often incorrect beliefs about yourself, and reshape your future. You work at your own pace – your own inner wisdom knows where to go and what to do, my roll is to guide and facilitate.
My Experience with Journey Therapy
I tried my first Journey Process nearly four years ago. It was soon after this initial Process that I experienced a feeling of pure bliss which I couldn’t remember ever feeling before. It stopped me in my tracks. While being aware that others around me seemed happy, for me there had been an underlying sense of heaviness, like life was a real effort. I experienced almost reflex- like uncomfortable responses to situations which other people seemed to handle easily. Though I had tried all the conventional therapies, the heaviness, and the idea that my life was a struggle remained. It was through Journey Process work that I discovered that I, too, could experience real happiness, that my future could be bright, that I could let go and find real peace and joy in my everyday life, and find such a huge appreciation for what I already had.
After three or four Processes I decided to attend the Journey Intensive, and then enrolled in the Practitioners Training Program, purely for my own personal development – if happiness and freedom from the past were possible, I wanted it, and I was sure that if I was going to live this life, I needed it and deserved it as much as anyone else. During this eighteen month period I was able to open up and work with my past – suicides within my family, sexual abuse, past eating disorders and drug use, grief, shame and low self-worth.
Having worked as a Massage Therapist and Feng Shui consultant for the past thirteen years I was well aware of the benefits of touch and working with the environment. As a qualified Neuro Linguistic Programming Practitioner I am able to assist clients to use the language of the mind to consistently achieve specific and desired outcomes. And Journey work has facilitated for me an opening into the next dimension of emotional breakthrough – facing up to the real truth of my life, of dealing with the past, and discovering the amazing joyful potential of my future. I believe that everyone deserves this, and so working as a Journey Therapist and Journey Massage therapist became my vision.
There’s no running away from the truth of where you are in this moment, and where you’ve been. I invite you to try this work, to allow yourself the pleasure of knowing who you really are, and where it is that you can really go from here.
