Overview

Shen was developed in the United States. Shen is an acronym for Specific Human Emotional Nexus. Shen is registered in several countries as the Service Mark of the Shen Therapy Institute, Sausalito, California.

Shen is a safe, reliable process that heals by unlocking trapped, painful emotion that we cannot unlock by ourselves, and lifting it from the body.

History

In 1977, scientist and researcher Richard R Pavek had a persuasive personal experience that impelled him to investigate the biofield and its primal relationship to emotion and the body. Soon realising that the popular ideas of emotion and mind were flawed, he began developing his concepts of emotional dynamics, emotion-driven responses to life and the potent hands-on techniques that make Shen uniquely effective.

Procedure

The Shen practitioner places his or her hands gently on the your clothed body and holds them, in a series of paired positions, around the places in the body where there may be emotional pain. The practitioner arranges his or her hands to have the bioflux, or Qi, pass through your body in precisely planned patterns.

You may feel tingles or other sensations as you relax, fall asleep or enter a state similar to meditation. Frequently, memories of forgotten, pivotal events surface. Usually more than one session is needed for the trapped feelings of sadness, fear, shame or anger to rise from your body and dissipate. This takes place in a safe, non-threatening and enabling way.

You feel emotions as they surface and leave, but, when they are gone you will once again be able to reach long-forgotten levels of joy, love, confidence, health and well-being.
