SOMA ENERGY ARTS

A Unique Approach to Integrative Healing

  Energy Arts  is literally what it sounds like.  It is the art of healing within the energetic and vibrational field of our physical body or soma. The art of energetic healing is centuries old and was often used primarily in ancient cultures by the shamans, medicine healers and seers as the dominant modality of healing and intervention simply because they recognized that the signatures or frequencies we hold in our energetic fields precede our physical experience.  This is a powerful truth to behold in or world as well as within our physical bodies.

  We are definitely physical beings, however we are vibrational beings first and foremost.  We set up and eventually come by our physical experiences through our energetic resonance to our life primarily defined by how we think, and what we think about all day long.  Our thoughts are essentially the only thing in life we actually have control over.  Our emotions are here to show us how aligned we are in our thinking with our higher consciousness.  The better we feel, the more in alignment we are with our highest purpose in life, or the more we are aligned with allowing the best use of our spirit to live though us.

  This is how well-being is created and experienced in our physical world.  Our bodies are a pure reflection of our vibrational experience and often time we allow our habitual thinking to reign supreme even if its not in our best interest.  Most of these chronic thought patterns and habits are learned over time through our environments, family interaction, school and our world in general.  It is the contrast of our experience which moves us into our learning about ourselves whether we like it or not.  



In Practice

In my Rolfing practice, I have seen over and over again a person coming into their session looking for received some relief from severe body pain and being completely unwilling to change the way they are thinking about themselves, let alone their lifestyle habits.  They report that they would be giving up something dear to them if they were to change.  I often wondered if they would really miss their pain and suffering, or their limited mobility and restriction. The part that is missing here is that giving up what we think we know best for ourselves and then allowing a new expression of health and well-being to shine through is actually easier and more joyful once the first step is taken to think differently about our experience.

The approach I take is to work energetically within the soft tissue.  It is still a hands-on approach however it does not necessarily follow the 10 session protocol. The main experience of these sessions is to identify and address the dominant energetic vibrational patterns in the field that may be holding strain or tension in the body's physical structure thereby not allowing the person's own healing system to reset itself.  Once the pattern is identified, then we seek to reset the central nervous system to a smoother vibrational resonance within the body's tissue and structure thereby allowing the tension in the body's soft tissue to reorganize into a more functional and flowing pattern. This is then how the pain in the body is reduced.  

We do actually have the ability to interface and alter the experiences we have in our bodies simply by recognizing and learning how to communicate to ourselves energetically and therefore repattern the tissues in our body to maintain optimum health and rejuventaion.  

About Sibel

I have always had a fascination with how people express themselves through body language. At an early age I started a rigorous program in classical ballet until after high school where my fascination took me into the world of sports. I discovered skiing while in high school and was immediately obsessed. I had to master this sport.

Living in the mountains of Utah has been a gift and a blessing. Here I have grown and matured as a person by deepening the connection to my inner Self through my time spent among the pristine snow capped mountains and the cleansing red rocks of the desserts. During my studies at Westminster College in Communications and journalism I also learned to fly airplanes and subsequently taught flying for a few years at the Salt Lake International airport.

Throughout my time in Utah I never separated from skiing, often putting in over 100 days in some seasons. Of course the mountains offer other sports which I eagerly participated in such as climbing, mountain biking and whitewater paddling. Eventually I was feeling the aches and pains of physical exertion and was soon introduced to the wonders of Rolfing which completely changed my life.

During my last 14 years as a Rolfing practitioner and healer I have tapped into the interrelatedness of how we as humans are put together emotionally, physically and spiritually. My curiosity in the connection between body, mind and Spirit lead me to a unique and beautiful program at the University of Santa Monica where I received my M.A. in Spiritual Psychology. This training brought to light a new way to integrate my skills in bodywork with my gifts as an intuitive healer and shaman to assist the client in accessing inner awareness of the deeper meaning beneath and surrounding the circumstances of their physical experience on this planet.   My most recent studies have been primarily in the energetic field of life in the form of intuitive reading and shamanic healing.  Much like the information coming to us about quantum mechanics and quantum physics as shown in the films, What the Bleep, and Down the Rabbit Hole, whereby we can see through scientific discovery and verification that we   do indeed energetically affect the world around us simply by our observations and our thoughts about them.  It has become clear to me that life responds to us very dramatically on such a subtle level that we virtually cannot afford to ignore this component of our existence.  I have found that combining these skills and knowledge of the body mind and spirit in such a way as to treat the physical body through the vibrational and energetic field first is the most effective way to aligning with the ultimate healing source within us.  Since the physical body is a result of and responds to the primary energetic patters we hold in our field, they physical body then easily moves toward repair, regeneration and rejuvenation. 

Many Blessings, Sibel Iren, M.A.

What does a session feel like?

A session typically lasts 90 minutes where I combine intuitive body reading to check in with your nervous system and tissues,  gentle hands-on bodywork to help facilitate the repair and reprograming of the DNA coding and programing to assist all the cells in our bodies to maintain proper cell division an growth.  This also allows for the decompression of tension and strain from the central nervous system which helps any physical trauma memory to be released along with reducing pain in the body.  Also I like to leave some time for discussion and questions because I believe this is an integral part of each session is being able to take something useful with you into your daily life. 


Do you experience emotional release during the sessions?

Often times clients report that they will re-experience emotional memories or revisit past situations associated to an event in their life whether emotional or physical that has had an impact on them as it comes up for healing. Often times traumatic physical events will have an emotional component associated with them involving how we relate to our bodies during and after such an event. An emotional event such as divorce or emotional abuse can have a physical influence on our bodies as well. In essence, any kind of intense stress has a direct physical response in our physiology affecting and even changing our neuro-chemistry which directly affects the way we behave, think and feel. Sessions allows for the affected area of the body to be acknowledged providing a safe outlet for the release to take place thus freeing the physical and emotional body from the restriction and pain of the event.


Can this help with injury and surgery recovery?

It most certainly can help with this type of recovery.  Most injuries and surgeries have an emotional component that accompany them as you might imagine.  If nothing else, injury and surgery are stressful to the  body as well as the mind and emotionally we are having to cope with the effort of healing after the fact.  So indeed, every experience we have  is multi-dimensional and is best served approaching it from all levels. 

Can these sessions help with chronic problems like chronic fatigue, degenerative bone and disc conditions and auto immune problems?

Yes.  Again, auto immune problems and any condition that has a degenerative progression is ultimately a product of our perception by the time we are having to deal with it.  The good news is that healing can always occur to the body mind or spirit levels when all addressed simultaneously.  Our entire being feels a sense of well-being when we acknowledge ourself as a whole unified source.  The power that then can eminate from our core is the biggest healer known to humankind.

A Back Reborn- Wasatch SportsGuide Article Aug 2004

A Back, Reborn
By Tom Price, Sports Guide Aug04

Right up front, I’ll admit it: I was cutting school and shouldn’t have been skiing. It was more than 20 years ago, I was 15, and a day at Snowbird sounded a lot better than anything in high school. OK? I’m sorry, and believe me I got punished for my misdeeds. On the last run of the day I came barreling down Big Emma and flew off a lip on a cat track, cart wheeling my left shoulder forward and down just in time to absorb the impact. Reeling in pain as I sat up, the grapefruit sized swelling told me something was very wrong. A few hours later the X-rays confirmed it: my collarbone was shattered. It would eventually grow back into a large, lopsided knot.

Fast forward: For about the last eight years or so, I’ve noticed I get a really bad pain in my lower left back when I’m on too long a road trip. And when I walk it’s like my left leg is about two inches shorter than the right. Something was slowly, inexorably going very out of whack. I needed serious medicine. I needed, gulp, Rolfing.

Maybe you’ve heard of it, the “oh my heck it’s so painful” therapy, some sort of funky deep tissue massage that rearranges your very bones and muscle. It sounded unpleasant, but the alternative—continued slow degeneration and limited ability— was worse.
