Stillness Meditation Touch Therapy
It was Dr Ainslie Meares who introduced the formal practice we now call Stillness Meditation to the world. Stillness Meditation is based on homeostasis - a natural biological process involving rebalancing and profound mental rest that is felt as calm and ease. It is actually the mind's ability to self heal itself and the body. Because mental homeostasis is a natural function, when correctly taught and correctly practiced it can be learnt by practically anyone. You already have the ability, it is a matter of reawakening or re-learning that which you already know!
Tuition will help you to learn to experience Stillness wherever you happen to be and whenever you wish it so. Learning to be calm and at ease is a step into a better life. Reading helps know Stillness exists but the best way to discover it is to experience it yourself.
Stillness is experienced when the mind is still. By definition a still mind has no mental activity to an extent compatible with remaining awake. So, words help relax somewhat but have built in limits too. Stillness is best taught by soothing touch eg. shoulders and head. Sensitive people are offered hands that reach out and don't quite touch. For more information see here.
Meditative Touch Therapies
Let go. Let flow. Relaxation and energy flow are reverse sides of the same coin. Both reduce anxiety, tension, fear and pain; and facilitate self discovery, personal growth and harmony. This is what healing is all about.
Owen has studied various meditative touch therapies for his development and offers some as options. Some people just want to keep on with a method they like. Others know one method has helped and are open to trying another.
Eastern Reiki involves touch at more positions than "modern" Stillness Meditation. Therapeutic Touch and Pellowah utilise hands inches away from the body so everyone - including sensitive people - can get the benefits without contact. There is no question that all these methods using touch (rather than words) can lead to a deep experience. Sometimes, very deep. Rarely, profound depth. In all cases, both contact and "off body" touch are only offered after discussion and any questions answered with your choices and needs built in.
Stillness powered touch therapies allow a reassuring experience under familiar circumstances for those with previous experience of Reiki, Therapeutic Touch or Pellowah. They may also offer a first taste of the unique experience that is Stillness. It is up to you if you wished to stay with your chosen option or later on transition into the self care provided by Stillness Meditation which is compatible with Reiki, Therapeutic Touch and similar methods.
All these therapies can be used alone or with medical treatment ie. they are complementary therapies.
