Havening unlinks negative emotions from memory, creating space for the planting and future growth of positive emotions…
Havening with Dr Sandy Dinsdale
Sandy was a GP for 30 years. Her clinical roles in primary care included family medicine, integrative medicine, care of older people, and prisoner health. She resigned her medical registration in 2021, to focus fully on complementary medicine. Sandy also has over 20 years of experience as a Homeopath.
Many years spent working within conventional medicine and homeopathy have informed her understanding that dis-ease always involves the whole person. We are so much more than the sum of our parts. A holistic approach, including mind, body and spirit is essential for optimal health and wellbeing.
Experiencing and witnessing the extraordinary power of Havening to enhance our innate desire to heal, serves to reinforce her belief in holism. Using the neuroscience of mind-body healing, Havening releases the grip of stress and trauma, empowering us to create the future we deserve. Havening is gentle, non-intrusive and effective. Clients access their own intuitive knowledge, directing and managing their healing process in a safe and comfortable way.
Consultations are available in person at Sandy’s clinic in Tauranga or online via Skype or Doxy.
What is Havening?
Havening Techniques® are a form of psychosensory therapy using physical touch applied in the area of the upper arms, hands, and face. The gentle therapeutic touch changes the dominant electrical brain frequencies to slow waves, known as delta waves. In adults delta brainwaves usually occur only during slow wave sleep, when learning is consolidated. Havening also promotes the release of natural chemical messengers (serotonin, oxytocin, dopamine and GABA), creating a sense of well-being.
Havening Touch enhances neuroplasticity, the brain’s natural ability to remove negative emotional programming from the past and allows us to be fully present in life. The resolution of stress and trauma occurs during havening, through the unlinking of negative emotions associated with past events. This creates space for positive emotions which enhance the psychological immune system, creating resilience and resourcefulness.
Havening Touch can be applied by yourself under the practitioner’s guidance, or by the practitioner.
