A Soul Plan reading – and its benefits!

by Self and More | Jul 18, 2019 | Coaching, General, Pilates, TRE

I wrote just little while ago about ‘Soul Plan’ – what it is and how it is connected to your name and origins.

For those who may have missed the article, what’s in a name? – could be your Soul Plan! – in essence your birth name and even name changes are all linked to the worldly challenges you will face and your personal talents. By recognising these challenges you utilise you greatest talents and can better assess the goals you should be setting for yourself.

I also looked into who most benefits from a Soul Plan reading and gave you some background on its origins. Assuming I perked your interest, this article takes a look at the more practical side of investing in a Soul Plan – the reading itself and the numerous benefits that can be derived from this reading once it has been done.

The Soul Plan reading process

Prior to the reading, I require your full original names as stated on your Birth certificate. I also need permission from you for me to perform it, as it requires delving into aspects of your past – obviously only from an origination of your name aspect, I’m not a private investigator!

Now some extra time on my side comes in, as the Soul Plan reading process is applied to your name, the Soul Plan chart prepared and I conduct an intuitive review.

Next, either online or in person, we meet to review the Soul Plan together. A recorded version of this is advisable as there is a lot if information to discuss and advice given to you during the reading. I can provide that at a small additional cost.

What’s in the reading?

The Soul Plan reading includes a full analysis of your life in terms of talents, goals, potential, lessons to be learned and obstacles to overcome. Advice is given on the ways to overcome the challenges that face you and help you to achieve your potential goals,

The awesome discovery of your full life potential is often a life changing moment and it is not uncommon for recipients of the reading to experience massive shifts in their lives and circumstances!

What are the benefits?

This is the part that makes my job as the facilitator of Soul Plan readings so rewarding, as the potential benefits are numerous and impressive.

There is often a powerful transformation when pointing to, analysing and healing obstacles and redundant blockages that may lie in one’s path. This opens the way to a clearer future journey.

When clarity is obtained on what may have been just vaguely suspected talents and abilities, a new path is set and actioned, as it is now one of attaining a whole new life’s purpose.

Now, with a better understanding of your past actions and short comings, you are able to access yourself on a new, clearer, ’Soul’ level. You can accelerate your healing and boost purposeful change and future growth.

By activating your newly discovered unique abilities and potential, your role in life is understood and your true ‘Soul Plan’ revealed to you. A clearer path to sought after, attainable goals, leads to a life of meaning and purpose.

Let me help

I hope you will allow me to introduce and facilitate a soul Plan reading and its benefits to you. I know that it can only help you to find a clearer path forward.

The reading can be done both online and personally with me and as there is a fair amount of my time involved (usually over 3 hrs) the fee is R1,200. When you know of the full benefits, you’ll understand that it is money well invested in yourself and living to your full potential. The time of the reading itself is 60 to 90 minutes.

My business, Self and More, is my own Soul Plan, a lifelong dedication to unleashing the full potential in every human being on a physical, mental and spiritual level. I hope that you will connect with me to assist you to do this. I look forward to it.

Is TRE the best kept trauma release solution secret?

by Self and More | Jun 14, 2019 | Coaching, General, Pilates, TRE

TRE, now a fairly commonly used and quite well known practice for the release of trauma in many other parts of the world, has for some reason not taken off in South Africa in the same way. This begs the question for me “Is TRE the best kept trauma release solution secret?”

What is TRE?

Well, before I answer and before I get ahead of myself, for the uninitiated, I should just summarise what TRE is. Trauma and Tension Release Exercises is the full description and it is an innovative, effective series of exercises that assist the body to release deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma. It is a great stand-alone therapy and also enhances other stress relief practices like Yoga, Mindfulness and meditation.

TRE activates a natural reflex mechanism of shaking or vibrating to release muscular tension and calm the nervous system. Created by Dr. David Berceli, PhD, it is practiced by professional facilitators like my company Self and More in a safe and controlled environment. The mind and body return back to a state of balance and are reconnected, as when one is in the fetal position.

What are the myths?

There seem to be myths surrounding TRE though and a general misunderstanding of what it is and how it works – so what are some of these?

It’s sold incorrectly – Unfortunately TRE is badly represented online and is sold as a type of exercise program – or at least that’s what people think it is. Of course it is not a physical exercise program at all.

Lack of understanding – Following on from this, because of the misconception of what it is, many don’t even understand its many benefits. These are numerous and in future articles I will be describing them in more detail.

It’s thought of as an expensive fitness class – Again following on from the first point, as it is seen as an exercise program the cost is considered to be high. It is actually a neurologically based practice created by a physician and therefore a certain amount of training and expertise needs to go into its execution.

Unfortunately, like many modern revolutionary practices, it is not recognised by certain bodies and therefore not covered by medical aids. Nevertheless the cost is very reasonable if practiced in a group format, which I do facilitate and of course it’s a more expensive if delivered on a one on one basis. The benefits of that however are relevant to the increased cost.

You don’t need to be fit – Once again, due to the misconception about the fitness class, it is believed that you may need to have a certain level of physical fitness or body shape to be a recipient of its benefits. This is absolutely untrue and TRE is practiced even by disabled people, so don’t let anything stop you. If there is any reason at all for you not to enjoy the relief of TRE, I will be able to advise you accordingly.

In conclusion I return to the question, “Is TRE the best kept trauma release solution secret?” – Yes I think it is and it’s a shame because its benefits go far beyond what I have been able to include here. I will do so in future articles though and run you through a typical TRE session, so watch this space.

Let’s talk

Contact me and let’s talk about any other questions you may have relating to TRE and how you could benefit from it. With this, or any of the other four practices Self and More facilitate relating to self-improvement (both physical and mental), self-awareness and trauma release, I can best help you if I know yours or your business’ specific requirements. I look forward to connecting with you!

What’s in name? – could be your soul plan!

by Self and More | Jun 13, 2019 | Coaching, General, Pilates, TRE

When William Shakespeare, the great poetic playwright, begged the question’ “what’s in a name?” I doubt that he realised just how deep that question was and how well used the phrase has become.

I especially doubt that the character of Romeo had Juliette’s ‘Soul plan’ in mind. Of course not. He was simply asking why we place such significance in a name. After all “A rose by any other name would smell a sweet!”

Well, as it turns out there is, according to those who practice ‘Soul plan,’ very great significance in your birth name and even in name changes. These are all linked to the worldly challenges you will face and your personal talents. By recognising these challenges you utilise you greatest talents and can better assess the goals you should be setting for yourself.

A soul plan reading uses the sound vibration and intention behind naming to determine a person’s entire ‘Soul Plan.’ Working with many people who have or are facing traumatic experiences, or simply wanting to find more meaning in life, I have found Soul plan to be a useful and fascinating addition to my practice.

Who needs it?

I tend to ask these questions when assessing who would most benefit from a Soul plan reading:

Do you know your life purpose?

Do you feel you have lost direction in life?
Are you still searching?
Do you have a sense there is something more for you in this life?

If any of these questions resonate with you, you could possibly benefit from a Soul plan reading. It works on both the conscious and unconscious level and not only uncovers challenges and talents, but its benefits are far deeper. It can bring a recipient a greater sense of freedom and connection and it heals and clears redundant blockages.

Where does it originate?

As esoteric as it may sound, there are solid historical origins to the practice. It was formulated from the ancient texts of the Zohar and the Sefer Yetzirah which explores the possibility that reality is derived from sound, letter and word.

A method of gematria, channelled by Dr Frank Alper 1930-2007 in his ‘Spiritual Numerology of Moses’ work, is also included. These interpretations have now been modernised and expanded by the world renowned Soul plan practitioner Blue Marsden. Marsden has also channelled additional material which highlights the theme of non-duality.

Seek professional guidance – on or offline

I have really just introduced the concept at this juncture and subsequent articles will look at these readings in more detail – and more of the benefits of this rather unique and fascinating practice.

I do suggest that you do it with the guidance of a practitioner like myself, as the readings are somewhat complex. I do readings in person as part of my practice, but the good news is that readings can even be done online from anywhere in the world, without me being physically with you.

Visit my website to learn more about the many facets of self-improvement and trauma recovery that Self and More offer – or contact me to have a one on one discussion about your or your business’ particular needs.

Until next time, take care of yourself and wear your name proudly – it could be your Soul plan!

Relationships

Emotional connection;
Physical connection;
Support – on any or all levels;
Transparency;
Communication;

Choose one or two.

Then place them in the hierarchy of importance to you …………

The next step is up to you …..if you feel that the above elements are not present in your relationships and you would like to make changes so that they do….give me a call …setup an appointment to explore the subject further

The relationship starts with you

Send you love and light as always

Here we are, at that time of the year once again.

by Self and More | Dec 12, 2018 | Coaching, General, Pilates, TRE

Wow! I cannot believe that it is this time of the year again. This year has been filled with so, so much that I am not sure where to start. Let me say that I have lived in a year were I can stand back in awe and gratitude for all I have received…so many blessings.

Some have been gift wrapped with intrigue and seemed almost like a treasure hunt on a dangerous terrain. Because of that, I had to shed some of the burden I was carrying and had to work a little harder than normal to find the gifts – some were blatantly obvious and were delivered upfront – and some came wrapped in love and warmth.

Allowing myself to be vulnerable enough to accept who I really am and truly feel those emotions I had buried so deeply, all the while admitting to myself where I am really at and to make significant changes – as some of you know I have done – is what I am most grateful for.

So I would not have had any of this without all of you. THANK YOU from the depths of my heart to each and everyone of you for your strength and bravery in your own journeys, as you have inspired me on such a deep level. May you and your loved ones experience the true gift of love and nurturing throughout the holidays.

I am looking forward to continuing our journey together in what already looks like a whirlwind-bound-to-be-awesome 2019.

Love and light, as always,
