...Many trauma survivors spend years trying to heal through traditional therapy, only to find themselves stuck (physically, emotionally, spiritually, relationally, mentally, and energetically.). That’s where CoreTalk™ energy healing offers something different. This revolutionary method, developed by the Self Health Institute, gives clients the opportunity to communicate directly with their body’s core intelligence, the super subconscious, that part of one’s being that knows exactly what needs to heal and how.
...The first step is to become aware of your self-sabotaging behaviors. Notice when you’re avoiding tasks, procrastinating, or engaging in negative self-talk.

It is much easier to work on change once you see your patterns.
