I finally went to see Linda Foley. Bottom line: what a FANTASTIC treatment!
From the West Side, the trip to Linda’s office in Alta Dena took a little under an hour. I went in the middle of the day, so I didn’t really hit any traffic on the way there or back. I really had no idea where Alta Dena is, turns out it’s next door to Pasadena. Both areas are adorable. If I had known, I would have made time to do a little holiday shopping, maybe next time. And yes, there will definitely be a next time. Linda was amazing.The office was easy to find and park at. I walked into a cozy little waiting room and read this book The Food of Life
by Miranda Barrett while I waited. Meanwhile, I filled out a few pages of new patient paperwork, which were left out for me in advance.Linda is a very casual and friendly woman, I love that she calls me “sweetpea”. She brought me into her office, which was spacious and simply decorated, I felt comfortable there. I sat on a chair and she sat on an exercise ball. We talked about why I had come, which had to do with letting go of anything that was in the way of growing my business. I want my business to be as healthy as I want my patients to be!So, what she does is muscle testing (Abby talked about what this is in her post- see Abby Goes To The Muscle Tester). There are different parts of the body you can use. She uses the wrists. What is happening is that she is sitting across from you, holding your wrists and it feels like gentle pressing as she’s asking questions to you and herself. She is apparently getting a direct response from your body, your subconscious. If the body tests weak, it indicates some blockage or constriction in the energy flow.When there is a pattern of blockage this starts to create a pattern which can become a habit. The habit can be physical, emotional, spiritual. This can often translate to us reacting a specific way in our lives without even knowing why, or we continue to receive the same results even though we’ve tried different approaches.Linda uses kinesiology techniques to release these patterns and create newer healthier ones. It’s quite eye-opening. There were certain “blockages” I had that I didn’t know I had. It fell into the category of what you don’t know you don’t even know- so how could I have worked on it on my own? I had a blindspot and she gave me access to it. I felt so freed up when I left there, energized and recharged and with a slightly different perspective on things.I am excited to go back next week and see what other secrets I’ve been keeping from myself.---Follow Up: In the two weeks after my session with Linda, my business started to grow exponentially- a snowball started to happen and I am so grateful for her help. She helped me get out of my own way so that I could truly be of assistance to others.Image courtesy of Phillipe Leroyer
