NeuroShift
We have all heard that subconscious patterns are the root of our limitations and that if we can change those patterns our quality of life improves. Without a doubt that is true. Yet, thousands of highly skilled students of personal growth still find themselves trapped in the cycle of two steps forward one step back.
NeuroShift is a gentle, powerful means for expanding and amplifying positive life experience by reversing the restrictive, cumulative effect of negative judgments. It is a simple technique that enables the quick release of old patterns and deep fears that hold you back or limit you, allowing an accelerated personal growth through new directions in life.
“I’m feeling really great. The process helped me to clear blocks I was not even aware of. Now I have the energy to do what I wanted to do…. I now have a calm stillness. When I (shifted) I felt a flow with all life. I don’t have to push and pull but just BE.” Judy S., Boston
Our thoughts create patterns of electrical impulses that cause neurotransmitters, hormones, and chemicals to be released in the body and our bodies respond. We experience this translation of our thoughts to our bodies as emotions. When the anxiety response is activated the flow of information and the flow of blood throughout the body are disrupted.
Especially under high stress, energy for the brain areas of higher function are blocked, communication between the left and right hemispheres breaks down and sensory input through eyes and ears diminish. At this point the flight or flight (survival) state is activated and everything is hard to accomplish because communication between hemispheres is slowed or stopped.
Our autonomic nervous system is divided into the sympathetic and the parasympathetic systems. When the parasympathetic nervous system is active we are relaxed, our heart rate is calm and steady, and our breathing is slow and deep. On the other hand, when the sympathetic nervous system is active our body prepares for an emergency, and the “fight or flight” response is in effect, our heartbeat is fast and strong, and our breathing is shallow and rapid. Anxiety response symptoms can be present. Blood flow patterns, which are an indication of neural activity, are dynamic. In sympathetic overdrive, when we’re experiencing panic and fear thinking clearly becomes extremely difficult. The primitive brain says: “You don’t need to think, you need to run!”
There are tens of millions of differing neural connections to the brain. Each has a task. All these tasks merge to create a complete cognitive system. Since all functions of the brain are interconnected, none stands alone and each compensates for the others. When we are functioning at our best, the brain and body functions well together, sending and receiving messages while keeping the entire organism in a state well connected for being present at whatever is taking place in our lives. In other words we are in Flow.
“ I feel like I really became my ‘true’ self, centered and feeling like I belong.” Judy V. Springfield, MA
Drawing from the fields of Energy Psychology, Hemisphere Re-balancing, NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), Psycho-geography and others disciplines, NeuroShift utilizes natural physiological patterns along with the body’s energy field and neurological processing systems for re-patterning and recoding how experience is stored. It has the effect of releasing unconscious beliefs and corresponding unpleasant emotions, transforming them permanently, directed by conscious intention.
“Now, all those negative feelings and beliefs seem silly because I know none of it was really true. I’m feeling calm and quiet and wonderful.” Vicki L., Dallas, TX
A groundbreaking new model for change… NEUROSHIFT is a leap forward in letting go of old ineffective emotional patterns and bringing about an emotional balance, producing choice and change in your life. In an extraordinary process that takes only a few simple steps the brain hemispheres are recalibrated to release a flow of energy in whatever context it is applied.
NeuroShift activates the choice all growth systems strive for, but which often seems just beyond your reach. The process itself is unique as it acts to inhibit the flight/fight area of the brain and activate a balance or shift to a neutral emotional state from which choice is available to re-code unpleasant memories with the wisdom of life experience. It is easy to learn and taught in an experiential workshop format, offering an opportunity to identify experiences to restructure to create a more harmonious flow to life.
