If
a client is interested and willing, I am able to use several
non-traditional techniques in the course of coaching, one of which is
dowsing a person's energy. Dowsing is a method of sensing the strength or weakness of energy fields around
a person as a simple diagnostic of the general or specific wellbeing of
the individual. This assessment is an excellent tool for quickly
identifying areas to focus on in coaching.
Although such readings can stand alone as a therapeutic tool, dowsing is
intended to be one of a constellation of modalities Cynthia uses to
help her clients come to clarity about themselves. This diagnostic can
be a corollary to healing but is never intended as a substitute for
needed medical treatment.
PLEASE
NOTE: Dowsing is not a necessary element of life coaching. Some people
are very open to it and others would rather stick to traditional
coaching methods. The choice to use dowsing as part of coaching is completely voluntary.
This is an example of what an energy reading might look like. As I dowse, I mark a chart like this one. The dowsing itself may take ten minutes. The interpretation may take 30 to 60 minutes.
Cynthia can offer two separate types of energy readings. The first, general reading, is often performed at the beginning of our relationship as a general diagnostic. The second is optional and may occur at any time it seems appropriate in our relationship. If you are coming for intensive work, both readings are often given together.
Reading One: The client stands with arms down and relaxed as Cynthia uses a single dowsing rod to trace the outline of two different fields projected by the individual: emotional energy and physical energy. If a person were in perfect balance and physical condition, the field of energy projected from him would "look" like a sphere of uniform depth. However, most of us have physical or emotional weaknesses or are releasing extra energy somewhere in order to relieve pent up pressure. Hence, our auras are lumpy. With a dowsing tool, Cynthia traces the edges of these energy fields, noting the result on a diagram which she later discusses with the client. Reading Two: With the client lying down, Cynthia "reads" the general energy pattern of the individual by moving her hand above the body. She may be able to indicate direction of energy flow, blocks, colors and texture, as well as "element" or what the energy resembles. If there are blocks, Cynthia tries to relieve them, sometimes herself or using a guided imagery technique with the client to visualize a remedy.
"The Dowsing that Cynthia did on my body showed me where thoughts and beliefs manifested as stagnated and blocked energies. Since that session, I feel more open and free in those areas. " - Licensed Massage Therapist & Certified Bodyworker
