An issue with Western medicine is that the patient may be left feeling like a third wheel in their own treatment. If there were things that they could do to psyche out the mind and encourage the body to wellness, wouldn't they want to do them? The SFT taps in this book are a means to convert all the angst and concern over a diagnosis into proactive energy to encourage the body to wellness. No one is a lost cause. Nothing is terminal. No diagnosis should be a death sentence or permission for anyone to sit on the sidelines and feel helpless. The exercises in this book can bring an incredible shift in the proactiveness of the patient. Imagine taping into the "IT" factor of the placebo effect, that part of the mind that convinces the body that it is well and makes it happen. In doing these taps, anyone can take a more active part in their own healthy empowerment. This is a great reference book for anyone who assists the body to wellness, whether they call themselves a doctor, healer, practitioner or patient.
About the Author: Jen Ward, LMT, is a Reiki Master, an intuitive and gifted healer, and an innovator of healing practices. She is at the leading edge of energy work, providing a loving segue for her techniques to clients, enabling them to cross the bridge of self-discovery with her. Her passion is to empower individuals in their own healing journey so that they can remain in their center every step of the way. While attending the Onondaga School of Therapeutic Massage, she was first introduced to energy work. It soon became second nature for her to help identify and remove energy blocks from clients. She is highly proficient at tuning into individuals' specific needs to release their issues, allowing their own body to make the energetic changes necessary to return to a greater sense of ease. Her ability to pick up many different modalities as second nature is another aspect of her profound gifts. Jen is considered a sangoma, a traditional African Shaman who channels ancestors, emoting sounds and vocalizations in ceremonies. An interesting prerequisite to being a sangoma is to have survived the brink of death. When Jen was first approached with the knowledge of being a sangoma, she had not yet fulfilled this prerequisite. However, in April 2008, when she came back to society on the brink of starvation as a result of traumatic involuntary imprisonment, the qualification had been met. She returned to the world of humanity a devout soul inspired to serve. Her special abilities have also allowed her to innovate a revolutionary technique for finding lost pets by performing an emotional release on the animal. Using this method, she has successfully reunited many lost pets with their owners. Jen currently works as a long-distance emotional release facilitator, public speaker, and consultant. Her special modality encompasses a holistic overview of her clients from all vantage points, including their physical, emotional, causal, and mental areas, ultimately benefiting their work, home, family, and especially spiritual lives.
