The Ten Stages uses as a healing package of INTULEXIA and other Meditation-al practices make use of the knowledge that communication between the extremities, senses and brain is a two way street. In the same way that playing a musical instrument with both hands effects the brain, using the arms, legs and torso in particular patterns "switches on" parts of the brain. Breathing practices, meditation, chanting and physical movements which harmonise the energetic system of the body balance the mind.
The most appropriate energy practice for a traumatised individual is the practice which embodies his or her intuitive profile.
The healing that serves as the best match for a particular individual starts in alignment with the energetic pattern presented under stress, but eventually restores the individual to bilateral brain function and full sensory awareness in a skilful way that does not overload the system. In psychotherapy, this is known as "pace, pace, lead.” Eventually, the verbal right-brained student should practice gaze points to incorporate the eyes and balance flow and timelessness with routine and structure, but initially this expectation would trigger lateral learning and the fight-or-flight response.
Eventually, the student will seek to be embodied in vision, hearing, hands and feet, but the learning curve must honour the body's capacity to adapt. Healing from trauma often involves a deep immersion into the affect and emotion of the right brain. The overcharged driven student who wants to place high demands on the body sometimes uses adrenaline and endorphins to mask many emotions that would be too painful to embody.
In order to heal he or she will eventually shift to whole brain consciousness. this shift occurs, the individual "can process information simultaneously, move and think at the same time, read with the writer's hand, speak with the listener's ear, and thrive on new, spontaneous, and creative self expression."
Our bodies are designed to embody our sensory input, emotions and intellect. Human potential can become buried under layers of psychic numbing. In order to heal from abuse, especially in the form of repressed memories, survivors need to be able to re-access the energetic experience of trauma and integrate it at a different level. With brain integration tools and energy practices which release, discharge or neutralise volatility and intensity, the survivor can have a sense of control over their experience. The capacity to regulate mood, state of mind and energy level is critical in order to plumb the depths of sorrow, unrelenting grief, anger, anxiety and fear that present in the healing journey. When the repressed energy of trauma is released, the person can then begin to live their life in accordance with their new recovery
