If you've ever felt like you're stuck, unfulfilled, or that you've been consistently "playing small"-and yet there's something inside you that knows you're meant to do, feel, and be something more -then Unblocked was written for you. Leading empowerment coach, Margaret Lynch Raniere, has distilled years of experience and client success into a proven approach to help you overcome the blocks that stifle your potential. By leveraging the ancient chakra system and evidence-based Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) also known as tapping, she's created a groundbreaking healing system to help you reclaim your inner power and transform your life.This book includes unique Healing Experiences that will guide you through actively unblocking the lower chakras (root, sacral, solar plexus, and heart). These "empowerment chakras" are the source of our power-and when they're blocked by long-buried pain and fear, we remain limited by self-doubt, procrastination, and a perpetual need to prove our worth. When those blocks are cleared, we finally stop "proving"-and start being-our most powerful, passionate, authentic selves. One by one, you'll free the "empowerment energy" contained in the chakras and unleash your innate superpowers. . . to be fearless and vulnerable, confident and real, strong and compassionate without needing to be "perfect."In addition, Harvard-trained psychoanalyst, Dr. David Raniere, highlights the psychology behind these transformative experiences, including practical tips on how to integrate them and elevate your level of feeling, speaking, and acting in your day-to-day life.Just imagine what you could accomplish if you embraced a new way of being in the world and consistently acted with confidence, courage, and a deep belief in yourself and your value. No matter where you're starting, Unblocked is the ultimate empowerment tool to help you fully inhabit your best self and create the life you've always wanted.
Interested in chakras or how to use chakras for personal challenges? Noted empowerment coach Margaret Lynch Raniere introduces the hidden power of chakras and “tapping.” Margaret, a certified hypnotherapist and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT or tapping) practitioner, cowrote this self-help book with her husband, David Raniere, Ph.D., a clinical psychologist with psychoanalytic training.
Early in her career, Margaret realized tapping helped her clients learn to solve presenting problems, but it did not reach the origin of those problems. When she learned about the seven chakras (human energy systems first defined by Hindu yogis), Margaret discovered that combining chakra information with tapping allowed clients to heal the sources of their problems. In this book, she integrates the framework of the first four chakras with tapping and other strategies to help readers heal themselves from past traumas.
Chakras may be seen as maps of human consciousness, with the lower chakras being susceptible to being blocked. This book focuses on releasing blockages in the lower chakras by opening the natural flow of energy.
Margaret combines chakras, tapping, and visualization to help clients reach positive outcomes. Each section of the book consists of an introductory chapter about a specific chakra and the damage caused by its blockage, followed by supporting clinical information from David. Guided tapping sessions and visualization exercises help readers find and release their negative inner thoughts. The Kindle version of the book includes the tapping scripts, a reading list, references, endnotes, and an index.
Clear and well-written, this book will help you reclaim your inner power and become your most powerful, passionate, authentic self.
The title says it all... Powerful system to clear the anxious energy of the nervous system (at least part of it). Some sections were really powerful and spot on and helped release a lot of hidden/trapped emotions.
A thoughtful and thought provoking book that is exceptionally well-written an provided clarity and insight into expanding my personal development and journey to finding inner peace and harmony! Thank you!
Overall a good book. Personally I would love more in-depth information on each theme. But she is on the point, and the exercises can be quite intense/challenging for some people. I have done a lot of work on myself, and I am saying this. I had a little challenge personally to find unhealed wounds for each exercise, but went with it even though. I was surprised by how much energy I put into words, and how I was brought to tears while tapping. The book also surfaced some other stuff to tap on, and since I knew how to do EFT, it was no problem. I would recommend to read books by 'The Tapping Solution' / Nick Ortner and Jessica Ortner on the subject of tapping/EFT. It will benefit for all other things that get triggered, and need healing.
This book is better for those with experience in tapping/EFT, but it is no requirement as she explain how to do it.
Parts of the book were so absolutely necessary. For example the chapter on healing your frightened inner child brought me to tears during tapping, releasing powerful emotions that I wasn’t aware I held on to. But then so many of the other chapters, disappointingly, did not resonate at all. Recommend to use the parts you need and skip the ones that don’t.
