Interview with MysticMag

​Holistic Wellness: A Christian-Based Approach to Relaxation Therapy
 

Check out this interview between Dixi and MysticMag, a holistic wellness publication.

What innovative or unique relaxation techniques do you incorporate into your sessions to enhance effectiveness?

Throughout my various training programs, I noticed that many of the wellness practices I learned about are nearly identical to Christian contemplative prayer practices, many of which have been practiced in Christian monastic communities for centuries. It seemed to me that Christian monastic communities throughout history have been stewards of holistic healing, perhaps without even realizing the effects that these practices could have on the whole person.

​

I wondered if it was possible to use these forms of contemplative prayer for their holistic wellness benefits and began experimenting personally and with my clients. The answer was YES!

​

So, I now use contemplative Christian prayer practices such as lectio divina, centering prayer, imaginative prayer, and healing frequency worship as the primary healing modality in my client appointments, wellness classes, and support groups.
