Hope in the face of suicide

Suicide is a modern epidemic which is much talked about but often fills us with despair at the thought that nothing much can be done to prevent it.
The modern lifestyle fools us into thinking that to be happy we must be successful and have things to make us happy. We think when I get the perfect job, or house or relationship then I’ll be happy. but unfortunately, the world doesn’t work that way. You need to be happy with yourself first and foremost but how do we do it? I would like to share Dain’s story as an example of someone seriously contemplating suicide and how he was able to turn it around.
Dain says “I had gotten to a point where I had everything that was supposed to make a person happy – and it had absolutely no value to me. I had tried every single modality for inner peace I could find, but I was still dying inside. I was so deeply unhappy I was considering suicide. I even set a date. I gave the Universe six months to change my life”.
“What no one knew was how miserable and unhappy I was most of the time. If you were to tell this story to the people that knew me, many of them would tell you that you were crazy. I was very good at hiding what was really going on from the people that knew me and looked up to me. And quite frankly, I didn’t know for sure that there was anything different as a possibility to living my life. I was doing the best I could with the tools I had available.” Says Dain.
Within a week of making his demand for change in his life Dain found out about an energy healing process called Access Bars®. Initially he was very sceptical but as he had already tried almost everything to change his life for the better he decided to have a session – what did he have to lose?
“I had an Access Bars® session and it is a simple process of touching points on the person’s head. It was the first sense of peace I’d had in almost three years. It was the first time remembering everything was ok, everything always had been, and everything always would be… and I never contemplated suicide again.” said Dain.
As part of Suicide Awareness Week (Sept 10th-16th 2017) two local Access Bars® practitioners are offering free sessions to those at risk in our community. This week culminates in the Waikato Wellness Fair on Sunday 17th Sept at Gordonton Hall where you can experience a Bars session for $20. If you are aware of someone at risk of suicide in your community please contact Catherine Weston 022 3064865 or Chrissie Shirley 022 1877313 to book a free Access Bars® Session.

  * Creating Space * 2022 * In the practice of Nia we ‘Create the Space’ in our trainings, meetings and sometimes before class. It is a mindfulness practice that allows us to eliminate distractions. I am now choosing to enter a time where I will create the space for an extended period of time for myself personally & for my family - within the year of 2022. Creating space will also allow me to remove unnecessary distractions and allow for clarity so that I can actualize my life and living anew. By giving myself and my family time to rest, reflect and renew I will be in a better space to offer classes, workshops and individual sessions when the time is right in the future. Thank you for your understanding and patience through this space. I may still share some words and images of inspiration and healing on my business FB pages from time to time if the feeling takes me. In practical terms individual sessions finished on Thursday 2nd December 2021. My last online Nia class was on W...

What are you gaining from your injury or trauma?

Sometimes injuries and past traumas don’t heal or resolve themselves no matter what healing or therapy we try. Why does that happen? What is getting in the way of this healing? Is it because you are gaining something, subconsciously from this injury or situation? I’ll share with you a recent example from my own life. Last Christmas Day I stepped off my brother-in-law’s deck into a large hollow in the lawn and badly rolled my ankle. It was so bad that I went and had x-rays taken just to make sure it wasn’t broken. Luckily for me it was just a very bad sprain and not a fracture. It took a LONG time to heal even with physiotherapy which did help immensely it was still not completely healed 8 weeks after the initial injury. Having this injury had impacted on mine and my families entire summer holiday. A lot of times I didn’t want to do things I would normally do because my ankle hurt, or I was worried about re-injuring it. It wasn’t until after my Physiotherapist had given me the al...

New possibilities – how do we create or attract them into our lives?

So many of us are longing for change – a better job, more money, greater relationships etc but we keep on doing the same things and wonder why nothing changes for us. As we all know that is the TRUE definition of insanity but we still don’t know how to change this!! W hy is that?   We can’t create something new from the same energetic space that we have created our current reality. If our point of view creates our reality (as taught by Gary Douglas and Dain Heer – Access Consciousness.com) then we have to change our thinking and our point of view FIRST before we can choose a different reality or to create something NEW in our lives.  Woah! So how do you do that? Simple, start working with any tools and techniques that help change your mindset, your constant thought pattern and your points of view. I said simple right? But so many of us still don’t know how to do that – Ok so let me explain in a little more detail – now you are interested!? I give you some example...
