Preparation for the session:
It's important that you're in a comfortable place, preferably lying down, undisturbed and have quiet time. I will call you, so look forward to
your phone ringing for our appointment.
I'll be asking you what your intention is for this session, and you may want to ponder this a little, knowing that your intention can change throughout the session.
There may sometimes be silent pauses during our Remote Trauma Healing™ session together, and I'll be checking in with you to see how you are responding to the changes that will be happening
within your body.

Considerations following your session:
Clients often feel quite relaxed and peaceful at the end of a session, and sometimes quite tired. There is still an integration process occurring for a while, so to get the most out of your session, recommend the following:
- Have a peaceful environment planned for after your session.
- Have free time scheduled to nap if you desire.
- Open up as much spacious time the following day as you can, so your system can enjoy the changes that are occurring.
