FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How can energy healing help me?
Energy healing helps on multiple levels, and in progressive stages. For example, the first benefit is an increase in energy and vitality. After that stage is accomplished, then it helps with the release of blocked energy in the body, and traumatic events from the mind. When the blocks are removed and the energy flows more correctly, you will start to experience peace and well-being. And based on this foundation, it is possible to have powerful spiritual experiences.
How many sessions do I need?
It depends on the severity of the issue. If you have had a chronic problem for many years, it cannot always be expected that it will resolve in one session. It would be best to think of giving Sekhem energy a good try and to have around three sessions. However, some clients do have very significant changes even in one session, after trying out many different modalities over the years.
The previous question describes the healing process in terms of stages. This means that if what you need at the moment is energy and vitality, it will take some time to get to the later stages of having deep spiritual experiences. But if all you need is a release of a certain issue and have no desire to go further, then fewer sessions are sufficient.
What happens during a session?
After a brief initial consultation, you will be asked to lie down on a treatment table facing up.
During an in-person session, I will hold my hands above you to facilitate the transfer of this powerful energy. We will begin with a short guided meditation to enhance your experience and aid your healing. If you are not comfortable with the guided meditation, it's fine to tell me and we can skip this and start directly with the energy healing.
After observing your reactions to the energy and my own sense of how the energy is flowing, I will adjust the treatment as needed, in terms of guidance given, working on specific chakras or using other special techniques or tools.
The healing energy then enters your body and energy field in its purest form and flows to the places where you need it most. Clearing energetic blockages, increasing your natural healing ability and vitality.
Can I move my body or change position during the treatment?
Yes. The energy may cause all sorts of sensations in your body and it is actually part of healing to release this in intuitive ways. If you feel that you need to move your limbs, change body position, shake, shiver, yawn or even cry.
If the sensations become too strong, you can also vocalise to release the blockage, but the best way is to actually breathe more deeply into the sensations, and then have an experience of release from within them. This will dissolve the energetic block from the root.
Can I talk during the treatment?
Most of the time it's best to remain in a relaxed meditative state but part of the treatment is also giving your feedback to me if something significant is occuring. For example, if a trauma memory comes up, it's good to tell me so that I know that we are on the right track. However, there is no need to share too many intimate details.
Can I sleep during the treatment?
Yes. If you are tired or stressed and during the treatment you feel the need to sleep, it is encouraged. This means that your body needs the rest and the energy will revitalise you even more powerfully. Letting go is the key principle to keep in mind, so if you feel the need to sleep, please do so.
Do you make physical contact during the session?
Throughout the session I will hold my hands above your body. This is enough for the energy to transfer. At the end of the session, I will gently hold your ankles to ground your energy and as a signal to end the treatment. I will ask your permission before I do this and if you feel at all uncomfortable about this, please say so, it's not 100% essential for the treatment to work.
What will I feel during the session?
Clients often feel an unusual heat in their bodies, or tingling, relaxation, sometimes falling into a deep sleep. Some see colours or have visions and insights.
Quite often, there comes a time during the session when clients have an experience of release, and it feels like a heavy burden has dropped off. This is a significant healing experience and it means that the session has had a major impact.
Still, if the release experience doesn’t occur, it just means that more time is needed for that particular issue.
What is chakra healing?
There are traditionally seven chakras and their locations roughly correspond to the various nerve plexuses in the biological part of the human body. Yet, on an energetic level they are much more than that.
In many traditions, it is widely believed that for both optimum health and spiritual purposes, it is important that each individual chakra is working properly and that they are connected with each other. This allows you to connect to the cosmos and to the Source of all energy. Your base or root chakra connects through your feet to the Earth and is important in grounding your energy so that you can be fully present in this life.
It is through the crown and the root chakras that the energies from the Source and the energy from the Earth enter the body and meet in your heart centre where they mix in a balanced way and from there spread to your entire body and energy field.
What is Sekhem healing?
Sekhem is an energy healing system that was received and developed in 1980 by Patrick Zeigler during an eventful night in the main chamber of the Great Pyramid at Giza, Egypt.
In short, Sekhem is a method of opening up the energy of the heart centre, or chakra, through which one can access their soul and establish a connection to earth, heaven and the Source, and subsequently receive healing, wisdom and ever increasing levels of freedom.
The name Sekhem was received by Patrick in deep meditation and today it goes by other similarly spelled names such as SKHM, Seichim, Seichem and others, but Patrick has also renamed the energy to All-Love, to put an emphasis on the heart and emotional aspect of the system.
The discovery of Sekhem energy healing allowed Patrick to spread this powerful healing around the world to help people trigger their own healing process and empower them to make positive changes in their lives.
How does it work?
As a Sekhem healing practitioner, I connect deeply with Source energy and set up a resonance in the person being healed. This allows you to connect yourself, which means you are essentially healing yourself, guided by me. If you are struggling for any reason to connect during the session, I can help you with visualisation, advice and guidance.
Is it safe to receive energy healing during pregnancy?
Yes. Energy healing is safe to do during pregnancy. In fact, it is extremely beneficial for the baby that any energetic problems from the mother are cleared before birth.
What can I do to prepare for the session?
I recommend trying to eat as healthily as possible and refrain from alcohol for about a day or more before the session. It is also good to read and try the Sekhem guided meditation before the session in order to connect with the healing energies.
What should I do after a session?
A few notes on after care and integration for you following your session to ensure you get the most from your experience:
- Drink lots of water - we moved a lot of energy during our session, and hydration will support your body in this process of integrating these changes
- Try to take it easy for the next few days. Listen to your body and what it needs - if it's telling you to rest or take some quiet time for yourself, honour that and create the space to do so. Walks in nature can really support you as well.
- Listen to your intuition - you may be guided by your body's wisdom to adjust your eating over the next few days, or may experience some insights or shifts in thinking about particular areas of your life, for example the people you spend time with, your career, the food or media you consume.
- Writing about anything that came up for you during our session or any insights or shifts you may experience over the next few days, any dreams etc. can be very helpful for you to process and learn from.
- Timing - you may notice changes or shifts beginning immediately following your session, or it may take a couple of hours/days to feel the effects of our work together. It's important to note that some people may not feel big shifts occur, but rest assured that Sekhem works powerfully on multiple subtle levels as well to clear energetic blockages.
Can I request healing for a friend?
Yes. You can buy a gift voucher for your friend or family member and they can redeem it for a session. This is the best option because it means that they can schedule their own suitable time on the calendar, as well as implicitly giving their permission for the healing. It is very important that the person receiving the energy has given their consent.
What should I wear for the session?
Comfortable clothes are best in order to allow you to relax. Also it is good to not be too cold as this can sometimes be a distraction from entering deeper into relaxation.
I want to raise my vibration to such a high frequency that I can manifest and connect with my heart desires. How can Sekhem Healing help me?
Sekhem energy healing works on a deep level to help you to release traumatic experiences.
Traumatic experiences create energy blockages in your body/mind system. The memory of the event is combined with negative emotions. This is like a knot in the energy field which reduces your energy level, creating anxiety, insomnia, stomach problems, etc.
During the session you relax and I help you by focusing on problem areas to release the energy of trauma.
Emotions produced by trauma, like fear, anger, sadness are all low vibration. When you release trauma, you release all these low vibrations, you move into the frequency of love and then positive things will arrive into your life.
