Mental Connections???

[Charlie Stevens]

Hi everyone

Sorry I've not been on the forums for a while, I have actually been really busy (YIPPEE!!!!)

Anyway, I have had some funny things happening during treatments recently and was wondering if...
a. anyone else has these experiences and
b. can anyone give me an explanation.

Basically, every now and again, during a treatment (usually IHM or Reflexology) I seem to get a very "special" connection with my client to the extent that words (for no apparent reason) pop into my head. After talking to the client, these words make perfect sense. I have never been wrong. for example, during an IHM with a client once I received the words "emotional secrets" which turned out that there had been a recent family feud caused by an illness being kept secret and the client was upset about it. Another time I received "worry" and the client then explained that her much younger sister had just failed some exams and the family where threatening to return her to Africa. There are really too many to explain but this evening, I was giving IHM to a young lady and the word "food" appeared, I wondered if she was thinking about dinner or worried about work (she works at a supermarket)then the word "anorexia" appeared followed by "no, eating disorder". I toyed with the idea of mentioning to the client or not as I didn't want to make her feel awkward so, I asked her if she was thinking about dinner or work and explained that these words arrive every now and again. She asked what the word was and I just said "food". She then explained that for the past 14 years, she had been suffering with an eating disorder, she lived away from family and no one knew (not even her housemates). She seemed relieved that the secret was out and I made a point of jut letting her tell me what she wanted and didn't ask questions (as I am not a councilor). This is all starting to freak me out a little bit so any explanation would be great. Also, does anyone know of anything I can do to develop this skill?

Sorry to have waffled on but I am really in need of some help.

Thanks all.

Hello,

I think that what you are epxeriencing in your intuition waking up. I valuable thing to have as a therapist. Be open to it and it will develop even moe. However you will have to assess every time if it aprorpiate to tell the client and how much of it is OK to share.

Hope you keep being busy,
