Item Description

The high bidder will engage in a one-hour body psychotherapy session with guided body imagery and emotional processing in Ute's office in Point Pleasant or Mount Airy, Pennsylvania.

Because of early child-hood wounds or trauma, our bodies carry physical contractions and habitual survival mechanisms that speak of fear, anger or sadness. These responses often sabotage us, causing emotional and therefore physical illness. Ute Arnold offers a finely tuned holistic process with which she will guide you. This will help you to access deeply buried memories and emotions to re-establish a cellular balance and healing response. Her gentle Unergi Holistic Therapy Method offers a balanced, expansive well-being of body-mind-emotion and spirit.

You may cover any of the following:

- How to give your body a chance to discover your truth through direct body-talk,

- Setting healthy boundaries by honoring your resistances, you will learn when to say “no” and when to say “yes”, building safe and trusting relationships.

- How to safely release feelings related to physical and/or emotional neglect or abuse

- How to experience new levels of awareness, and with conscious choice you will redirect habits of thought or feeling that have been learned in the course of your life.

- The kinds of themes that may surface are...

Emotional and physical burnout

Chronic pain

Physical/emotional or sexual abuse recovery

Relationships and trust

Self confidence and abundance

Inner-child issues

Creativity and spirituality

Mystery and silence
