Emotional Evolution with SHEN Therapy

25/01/2025

We don't always pay attention to the emotions we feel. Emotions have different tones and qualities to them. They can be painful, pleasant, invigorating, expansive, contractive or stultifying.

Anger and Rage are expansive and invigorating. Anger gets your energy flowing. It can be very useful when used constructively but it can be very detrimental when it makes us mask the deeply painful emotions such as grief, shame and fear.

Grief, shame and fear are painful emotions that are very contractive. These emotions are deadening. They are a drain on our physical and emotional energy. The contractions pull across our torso's wreaking havoc on our physical and emotional well-being. Grief, fear and shame often turn to anger. It is imperative to our overall wellbeing to attend to these emotions and release them.

Pay attention to the way an emotion feels when you experience it. Does it feel expansive? Does it feel pleasant or painful? Does it feel invigorating? Does it feel contractive or stultifying?

SHEN therapy is a hands on therapy with an exceptional ability to discharge the accumulated emotional trauma we carry inside in a way that is not harmful to ourselves or others. If you would like to know more or work with me, please see my website:

Investing in our emotional health is the most important investment we can make to ourselves.
When we start taking care of our emotional health we begin to see huge improvements in all areas of our lives.

✨Our physical health improves - we begin to see fewer ailments and significant improvements to our gut health

✨ Our Emotional Intelligence improves - we are better able to regulate our emotions, we become more self aware, we have more empathy towards others, we are more motivated in other areas of our lives, our social skills improve as our behaviour changes.

✨Our undesirable behaviours change - When the trapped emotions are released, they are no longer able to cause distress, resulting in subtle changes to our behaviours with ourselves and with others. We may become less angry, more tolerant, calmer, and our coping mechanisms are slowly disabled.

✨ Our relationships improve - When our behaviours change, our relationships begin to improve. This includes the relationship we have with ourselves. We become more empowered, more confident and more resilient.

✨Our financial health improves - When we are bogged down with emotional issues and physical ailments it is very difficult to concentrate on improving our financial status. As we work at our Emotional health, we begin to focus on other important aspects of our lives, such as our finances.

It is not easy to do this on your own. This is why it is so important to find a reputable and qualified therapist to help you through this journey. Somatic therapies are gaining popularity, but it is extremely important to make sure you don’t go on this journey on your own. You might not know what your body has stored, and when things come up, you need to be supported to work through this properly.

Our bodies have infinite capacity to heal. Most people don't realise that many of their physical ailments are a direct result of their emotional state. Main stream advise doesn't yet acknowledge that trapped emotions held within the body can cause obstruction to the natural flow of our life force energy through the body. This life force energy (Qi) is incredibly healing. The obstructions to this flow are caused by involuntary contractions, which occur within the body at various positions down the torso when a person experiences a painful emotion. All these contractions affect the tissues at the contraction sight, leading to adverse bodily functions and obstruction to the flow of life force energy.

When you are looking to heal a specific ailment you are suffering from, don't forget to include looking at the emotional aspect of it. If you know more about how your emotions work, where they emerge from and where they get stored in the body, you will be be able to find the right method to heal permanently. Emotions emerge and are stored within the body, not the mind, so be sure to include a body work therapy of some kind on your path to healing.

SHEN ® Therapy has been known to help with a variety of physical ailments after clients have experienced emotional release. Here are a few examples:

Migraines and cluster headaches - often caused by tensions at the heart and throat

IBS - often caused by contractions at the solar plexus and Kath (sacral area)

Lower back pain - often caused by emotions relating to shame, powerlessness and lack of confidence

Intense Period pains - often relating to emotions trapped around the reproductive organs

Anorexia and Bulimia - Shen is effective with these disorders through releasing the underlying emotional component causing the disorder.

Haemorrhoids - these can often be debilitating and caused by emotions trapped in the root

Jaw clenching and teeth grinding - relating to tensions around the neck, jaw and head

The human body has a Biofield (energy system) with a flow pattern. Painful emotions obstruct and block the flow patterns of qi (energy) in the Biofield. Once the painful emotions are released the body’s qi can flow freely without obstruction. This allows the organs and tissues surrounding the emotional centres to function optimally. SHEN ® therapists are trained to use the qi from their hands to relax contractions at the emotional centres. This brings the body’s Biofield back into balance and restores emotional wellbeing.

If you find yourself suffering from physical ailments such as IBS, migraines, menstrual difficulties, lower back pain or haemorrhoid’s, a SHEN ® therapist may be able to help alleviate your symptoms, especially if there is no biological cause

Recent trends in somatic therapies and somatic exercises for the release of trauma are very popular. Many people practicing these exercises are finding themselves having releases in their bodies. This is amazing BUT be careful… it is important to remember that once these muscular releases take place, they allow the emergence of deeply trapped emotions. Sometimes these emotions can be a very strong and very powerful, people aren’t always prepared for what is released. It can be too much sometimes. To overwhelming.

If you’ve experienced this and you are struggling with the emotional element of a somatic release, please reach out to a trained trauma counsellor or someone who is licensed to deal with the emotional and mental aspect of this. Certified SHEN ® Therapists are trained to work with the emergence of emotions from the body.

Self love is a concept. We are born naturally confident, self love isn’t even in our remit when we are very young children. Society and life experiences lead to our natural feelings of confidence and self acceptance being blocked.

These blocks are emotional wounds that need to be released in order for us to feel naturally confident. Feeling naturally confident is not necessarily self love, it’s being comfortable with and accepting who you are. It’s being confident in your ability to make sound decisions and navigate life and whatever it may throw your way. Being naturally confident also keeps you assertive and ensures you keep your boundaries in place.

People who have been knocked down multiple times by people or life’s lessons and tragedies often find themselves feeling unworthy, self loathing, self doubting etc. always berating themselves.

All these lousy feelings are difficult to shift off when you don’t have the right tools or know how to feel better.

Feeling better overall means you have to be brave and take a journey within to release the emotive experiences that are trapped in your body and holding you back. A journey within doesn’t always mean it will be a difficult journey, it just means you have to allow yourself the opportunity to heal. A transformative journey within using SHEN ® therapy can help with this.

I read an article recently saying that there may not be a cure for IBS but you could manage your symptoms with diet and avoid red flags…

I have a different proposition. I know of an incredible body work therapy called SHEN Therapy that can radically reduce symptoms of IBS, sometimes even getting rid of it for good.

Most people don’t realise how much their unresolved emotions are affecting their physical bodies. Slowly research is catching up with what body work therapists have known for a long time - that the body stores emotions. Not only does the body store emotions but the emotions emerge from within the body. Not the brain. More specifically they emerge from the human Biofield (often referred to as the energy system.)

The body can’t differentiate between a physical pain or an emotional pain. When it experiences either one, it contracts around the pain site. With a physical pain this involuntary action can be quite useful, but with an emotional pain, this action traps the emotion at the site it is emerging from. SHEN therapists know that specific emotions emerge from specific emotional centres (or chakras in Indian philosophy) down the torso. They are also stored at these specific locations. Whilst these emotions are trapped at these locations, they can cause an immense amount of distress, repeatedly until they are felt and released entirely.

In the case of IBS, a SHEN therapist will take a brief look at your history and be able to map out a treatment plan, which usually would consist of a minimum of 2 sessions spread out of 48 hours. They would specifically work at your solar plexus area and your Kath (or Sacral area) using very specific hand placements to help release the contractions or tensions in the area that are causing the symptoms of IBS. Sometimes a few more sessions are needed to fully release the contractions. The solar plexus and the Kath area of your torso are where we experience feelings of anxiety, fear, anger (solar plexus), shame, guilt, low self worth, lack of confidence (Kath). Releasing the tensions holding these kinds of feelings in place can be remarkably cathartic.

Once the contractions in this area of the torso are released and the emotions have dissipated, the digestive system can begin to function normally again. All the contractions down the colon have been released and allow for easier digestion all round.

Give SHEN Therapy a try, who knows, you might actually be relieved of your IBS symptoms once and for all. Send me a message if you'd like to know more.
