Energy Psychotherapy - with Clinical Psychologist Dr Coral Westway
🧠What if the emotions you never got to express are still being held somewhere in your body?
Energy psychotherapy is not a new idea. It draws on concepts that indigenous cultures, as well as traditions in India and China, have worked with for thousands of years. Chakras. Meridians. The understanding that the human body has an energetic system that can fall out of balance.
Dr. Coral Westway explains how this ancient wisdom integrates with Western talk therapy to address something that language alone sometimes cannot reach.
When we encounter overwhelming experiences and lack the safety or capacity to fully feel or express the emotions that come with them, those emotions do not simply disappear. Fear, grief, shame, humiliation, anger. They can become trapped within the system, interrupting the body's natural state of flow.
Energy psychotherapy works by identifying where those blockages live and using meridian or chakra-clearing techniques to help move them through the body, allowing the individual to return to a more settled and integrated state.
It is an approach that asks us to consider the body and the mind not as separate systems, but as one.
Have you ever felt like an emotion was sitting somewhere in your body rather than just in your thoughts?
