Energetic Healing and Transformation

Connecting, healing and transforming from the stillness within

Imagine tapping into and releasing conditions and complaints that have bothered you for months, years, even your whole life: health concerns, physical ailments, emotional struggles, circumstances in your life that never seem to resolve. What if you could finally reach the root cause of these things? And remove them? How would it feel to be free at last of some niggling injury or condition? To be moving from a state of being blocked at every turn, to gaining ever increasing control of your own life? To be transforming from a state of illness and disease to a state of health and vibrancy?

Within Energetic Healing and Transformation practices (known by many names, depending on the modalities used and school of thought followed), this is the goal.

Operating from the premise that EVERYTHING consists of energy, that everything in the Universe is at some level interconnected and that this energy on a Universal level has intelligence, Energetic Healing and Transformation therapies endeavour to tap into those energies within a person at different levels in order to create change, healing, and transformation.

What can you expect from a session at Thrive?

Derek operates his sessions from a very intuitive base. Whilst you may have issues, complaints, injuries that you are conscious of, Derek will work to draw upon the deeper causal levels of your conditions, rather than focusing purely on the symptoms evident. At times his work will move straight pass any intellectual understanding of causes or symptoms, instead working on total transformation of the energy arrangement creating what you experience, thereby removing the condition completely.

Using a blend of Reiki (pronounced Ray-key), Matrix Energetics, breathing exercises, visualizations, meditative processes and more, Derek works with you in a very gentle way to bring about healing and transformation. A very large focus for Derek is on assisting you to access more fully the deepest core of your self: that space within where peace, joy, and a more complete knowing of your own nature and purpose can be found. From within this deep level of stillness, healing and transformation on all levels can manifest in profound ways.

So what exactly will happen?

Much of the session will be conducted with you either sitting or standing. A large part of Derek’s work involves noticing where imbalances are around the entire body, for which standing can prove beneficial. A massage table is available if you have conditions that make sitting or standing uncomfortable for prolonged periods.

Some sessions can be a very creative and energetic process, involving a lot of interaction between you and Derek. You might experience your own visions, thoughts and feelings, connecting with deeper levels of self than you might normally do. Some people experience sensations of heat or cold on areas being focussed on, temporary weakness or spontaneous movement of muscles or limbs, or other physical sensations that can be difficult to clearly describe.

You may be asked questions or to make comments linked to what Derek observes, intuits, and what you have already told him. You could also be led through a guided meditation, breathing process or more in order to maximise the healing and transformation process.

There are times when a session is held in almost total silence until after the healing process is complete. You may lose focus and wakefulness for almost the entire session in these cases, shifting into a very restful state.

Is any physical manipulation involved?

No. Most of Derek’s work is hands off, working within the energy levels of an individual away from the physical form. The most physical contact involved between yourself and Derek will be of his resting his hand on parts of your body to gain greater connection to energy blocks. If any physical contact is uncomfortable for you, it can be avoided completely.

Is one session enough?

One session may well be enough to deal with a very specific issue. However, it is more likely that several sessions will benefit you in clearing an interwoven blend of issues that affect your life in more than one area. With more prolonged issues affecting your life, it can sometimes be a case of peeling back several layers before all causal factors are released. Attending a series of sessions also provides you with greater opportunity to gain tools from Derek which will enable you to better manage your own ongoing transformation.

How long is a session?

Session bookings are an hour in length. Typically, the healing aspect of a session lasts around 40-50 minutes. This provides some time for questions and discussion afterward, or for you to simply ‘regroup’ before leaving.

Useful tips

Try to avoid having anything stressful or too demanding planned for after a session. People often find an energy session like this can leave them feeling slightly tired, or even unfocussed while their physical/emotional bodies and mind assimilate the processes that have occurred. There are also times when you can walk away feeling quite energised and centred. Anything too strenuous or stressful afterward can detract from the ongoing process that continues once you leave the session.

Wear comfortable clothing. It’s one less distraction for you during the session.

Try to avoid using any perfumes/colognes or toiletries that are strongly scented. They can interfere in the process for both Derek and yourself.

Avoid eating a big meal just before the session…or just after. Again, this can interfere with the healing process as so much of your own energy and focus can be on digesting that food rather than on healing and transformation.

Avoid drinking alcohol or taking (non-prescribed) drugs on the day. These can interfere with the healing process.
