I’ve mediated between two kinds of couples and dynamics.

One is the transactional and victim mentality paradigm where it’s about gaining points as to who’s hurt the other the most.

The second is where they genuinely want to stay together and find a solution to a block and where they want to adopt a grow together dynamic.

It goes without saying which family/couple benefits more from healing. Where the mindset is one of change and forgiveness, they are already coming for help for all the right reasons.

It should not be about gaining sides in a session. It should be about awareness and healthy change.

Burning the midnight oil, and came across this. It’s not mine so Credits to the Author;Unknown.

Because, before self-love becomes a liberation, it is first a burden. Well, there’s the anger at who treated you poorly when you didn’t know to ask for better treatment. The anger at yourself for what you’ve allowed. There’s the grief for lost time. There’s the strangling necessity to push people, things, ideas out, out, out because there’s no room for them. There’s the loneliness and isolation that accompanies the growth of self. There’s the new boundary lines, the new range of the word no, the opening of eyes that would rather be shut, and the terrifying realization that love isn’t synonymous with joy. It’s synonymous with growth.
And growth isn’t bliss. It never was. It was a lie that said love would be white-teethed smiles on beaches.
The pinnacle of self-love is not endless ecstasy.
It is a heartbreaking process of undoing the life your unloved self built, brick by unworthy
brick.

Until we do not recognise what the anxiety, sadness, anger is trying to tell us, I.e what needs healing, we will keep getting the same emotion controlling us, and stay in an heightened state of reactivity.

Until you do not master sitting alone with your emotions, analysing, controlling, processing and letting go, you will constantly repeat your pattern; whether addiction, staying busy, or staying absent.

So sit with it and allow yourself the time to process, understand, take accountability and release.

Awareness allows you to listen.
Awareness allow you to process.
Awareness allows you to learn.
Awareness allows you to let go.

One thing you learn throughout holistic health, is that the body is a natural healer.

If we treat illness like a wound, that needs the right attention, some time to heal, the right conditions in the environment and some nourishment, I am certain that much illness can be reversed or contained.

We have lost the art of waiting for good because everything we want is at a click of a button. From form filling to sustenance, our details can be stored for quick results.

And so we have lost the patience in letting nature do its work with our bodies. We expect instant results. Here are my takeaways as a Muslim well-being therapist who practices Aafiyah Healing:

1. Check for spiritual afflictions: keeping a private life is key to not inviting negativity into your life. But we have to be better with our daily aadhkars and protective Duaas. It’s always a good idea to learn how to perform self ruqya and having someone who can check you for any spiritual issues.

2. Stress management: anxiety, depressed and chronic stress are the main reasons for illness. Skin conditions and anger/irritated with environment are parallel, as is tummy issues and anxiety. Learning how to manage your stress is key. An Aafiyah Practitioner can help you with this!

3. Releasing the past: it’s a place for learning from not living. It’s a very liberated feeling leaving the past in the past. See the Deep Trauma Release Masterclass.

4. Gut health: diet is so important in your healing journey. Our body thrives with the right gut bacteria so it is a good idea to start removing the toxins from your body with good food and detox.

5. Exercise and movement: a walk, run, jog all have one thing in common. It gets the heart pumping and releases endorphins elevating the feel good factor.

6. Nature: spending time in nature, connecting to the Earths natural sources of healing; sea, sand and soil, can reduce inflammation significantly.

7. Do more of what you love: by design, we were never meant to be shut away for hours serving corporate. We are happiest when our cups are full of doing things that bring us joy.

8. Check in with your emotions:keep in tune with your thoughts and see how it impacts your health. This is where journaling can really assist you. Once you become aware of your triggers it can help you make the necessary changes in your life.

I’m now here, showing up
For me.”
Words a narcissist never wants to hear.

The theme across female issues is having your femininity taken away or being over burdened by an authoritative figure and not seeing healthy examples of women around you.

With the rising pressure on women to adopt a ‘you CAN have it all’ front also comes the rise of female health issues.

Generational trauma is very common in female clients where we see the oppression of women surfacing a few generations down. A recent case study I worked with showed a third generation showing signs of infertility- and through relatives she had learnt that her great grandmother had been orphaned at a very young age. We worked around the fear of becoming a parent and her own fears of bringing a new life into this world- she had never known this to be a cause. A few sessions later she advised her ovulation tests were normal.

Many other case studies of severe PMS reflected a common theme of unhealthy attitudes towards being a girl.

Society makes being a woman out to be so many things - if she is working and hustling she’s empowered, if she is a stay at home mother she is devalued. Truthfully, a woman is empowered when she is her true authentic self and knows her worth- whatever she is doing. I often look at content women who have found their peace as the epitome of empowerment.

Know your worth, your rights, and heal from what hurt you so you embrace the beauty of your God given body.

It is shocking how pain is normalised - some of my clients have been living with headaches and debilitating migraine for years.

Migraines are serious and can stop the sufferer from living a normal life. It can induce nausea and vomiting, dizziness and blackouts, tremors and will stop one from their daily routine.

The emotions for headaches:migraines are normally-
* lack of boundaries
* burdening oneself with more than they can handle
* overthinking
* self serving illness; can say no and makes it easier to say no because of the condition
* pressured ; either taking on too much because they feel they need to achieve more or a fear of being disliked/letting peers down.
* information overload

As usual, if you feel you fit this bill, you can arrange an online or face to face consultation where we teach natural self help methods, assist in recognising boundaries and setting them and releasing that which does not serve you.

Lower back ache is the most common ailment I deal with at Al Shifah Well-being Centre. Some people have reservations about ‘how their emotions can affect their body,’ so I generally start with massage and cupping. However, once they start talking this is what I hear:
‘I feel guilty.’
‘I need support.’
‘I worry about finances.’
‘I don’t know who i am without this role.’
‘I’ve held it together so long what should I do?’

These are all emotions & beliefs that need to be released and one of the most common reasons backache triggers is a lack of support and financial stress. How does help?

1. the physical healing- a thirty minute realignment session
2. the emotional healing: releasing anything that doesn’t serve you.
3. Grounding, earthing and gentle stretches
4. EFT- a new way of pain management and triggers.

A client came with years of backache and was discharged after 2 sessions-: hers was the scars left by a harrowing miscarriage. She was able to sit on a plane and visit family for the first time in 29 years after her ailment.

Don’t normalise pain- your body sends you messages- start listening!
