🌿 How Your Body Speaks in Aura Therapy

In my Aura Therapy consultations, the colours I "see" are my way of listening to and understanding your body, your subconscious, and your inner stories. I'm also attuning myself to the unique symbolic, visionary and somatic language your psyche uses to communicate and express itself.

I teach you how to listen inwards well.

Once I've attuned myself (and you) to the unique language your mindbody speaks in, we can begin dialoguing with it. We can reply with reflective listening to show we've heard. .

It's amazing how often just this simple act alone can settle or resolve a physical symptom or an edgy, unsettled, heavy or hollow feeling that is all pervading you don't consciously realise it's there until suddenly it's not.

Sometimes I refer to this process as 'dreaming while we're awake', because 1) it mirrors the process of keeping a dream journal so you can invite communication from your inner world, and 2) the natural language of the mindbody is very much the metaphorical, abstract, archetypal language of the dreaming mind.

Your mind, your brain, your body, your subconscious... it's always talking to you, even when you're awake.

And it's always listening to you as well!

Are you telling it good stories?

In the healing room, the stories I tell my clients are offerings, new ways of seeing themselves and the world around them, which they can accept or reject depending on how well they resonate. I love telling stories that nourish, empower, enlighten and inspire! Quite often, a well-told story can be the key that unlocks the door to the dungeon some part of you has become trapped within.

Some of my best stories are quite theatrical and funny... I'm acting out characters, taking on personas, adopting a specific voice or tone. I'm role-modelling a new way of talking to yourself (or others), or in a funny light-hearted way I'm showing you the irony of a maladapted instinct that has become hard-wired in and isn't really doing you any favours.

The dynamic story-telling that unfolds in an Aura Therapy consult is a deeply interactive process between you, your body/subconscious and my highly-attuned ability to scan the mindbody and read/interpret the aura. Over the past 30 years, i have developed a process that blends modern somatic psychology (eg breath work and body scanning) with psychic perception and guided imagery.

Let's take a closer look at the skill sets I teach my clients and healing apprentices.

✨ Modern somatic psychology
Your nervous system stores experiences in subtle ways... as tension patterns, sensations, images, emotions.
By slowing down and tuning in, we access the “bodymind”: the deep intelligence beneath conscious thought.

✨ Shamanic body-tracking
For thousands of years, healers have followed sensations, images, and metaphors inside the body as a way of understanding what needs to shift. This might look like:

• a tightness that becomes an image

• a colour that reveals a feeling

• a sensation that “moves” through the body

• a symbolic object being removed or dissolved

• a guide or inner figure offering help

It’s not fantasy, it’s your subconscious using a symbolic language to express what words alone cannot.

✨ Psychic & intuitive visualisation

Some people naturally “see” their inner world in images. Others feel it, sense it, or dream it. My role is to listen for your unique way of perceiving and help bring it into clearer awareness.

Sometimes I will “dream” with you... tracking your inner landscape the way a guide walks beside someone on a forest trail. Other times, I help you develop this skill: noticing images, sensations, colours, or stories arising from within.

✨ Where these worlds overlap

• Somatic psychology calls this interoception and felt-sense.

• Shamanic practitioners call it journeying or tracking.

• Psychics call it clairvoyance or imaginative perception.

In aura therapy, these approaches weave together so you can:

1. understand what your body is saying

2. see how emotions and memories live inside you

3. release old protective patterns

4. retrieve parts of yourself that went quiet

5. reconnect with your inner guidance

experience your aura as a living, expressive language

✨ What this looks like in a session

Every session is different, but you might experience:

• a sensation in your throat that turns into an image

• a “block” moving through your neck, chest, or womb

• colours shifting in your aura as feelings release

• a symbolic object emerging (a scroll, stone, feather, key)

• a guide or inner figure offering support

• a sense of warmth, tingling, or lightness as energy moves

• a deep emotional softening or clarity
  
  We don’t force anything.
  We follow.
  Your body knows the way.

✨ Why this method works

Because imagery is the first language of the subconscious.
Sensation is the first language of the nervous system.
And together, they open doors that words alone can’t reach.

This work is grounded, gentle, trauma-aware and deeply intuitive... a bridge between the mystical and the scientific, the symbolic and the somatic, the inner child and the inner elder.

If you’ve ever wanted to understand your inner world more clearly (or you’re curious about how aura therapy works in practice) I’d love to guide you through it.

Your body is already speaking.
Together, we learn how to listen.
