"Sanlyn Wellness has had success with clients because of empathy and listening very carefully to what is occurring in the clients lives. The role of Lynton Friedman is to guide the clients, by allowing them to piece back together the puzzle of negative emotions they feel in a more positive healthy manner."

Psychotherapy has been particularly useful in this arena because often times clients are so wound up that they do not have time to feel or breathe.  One way Lynton helped clients was by getting them to connect to their feelings through some Body Psychotherapy techniques.  These can be explored more fully in sessions at the Centre.  Breathing exercises are also taught to allow the clients to bring themselves back into homeostasis and these have been shown to help improve clarity.  With some of the fog lifted, personal space and boundary techniques were reinforced with the clients allowing for a less reactive response to people around them.  This in turn tends to help reduce pain in the body which can be a natural reaction to the body being out of balance.  Clients are also taught to take some time to themselves so they can actually feel the changes taking place.

Hypnotherapy is another phenomenal tool to use when clients have been stressed.  General relaxation and anchoring techniques were used to create stress reduction success for the clients that Lynton had seen.  Teaching the mind to switch off could be difficult.  Hypnotherapy is effective in reducing thoughts and in fact some clients have actually over the years wanted to stay in the Hypnosis process because it is the first time in a while that they had actually chosen to quiet down their mind to a peep.  Lynton Friedman would naturally bring them back into waking awareness.  Nobody can indefinitely stay in a hypnotic state.  Hypnosis has also been beneficial in allowing the clients to find trigger emotions that were sometimes causing psychosomatic pain in the body.  Sanlyn Wellness has used a number of Hypnotherapy techniques to reduce the pain to in order to find some of the repressed emotions that may be bringing about the stress and anxiety which comes with pain in the body, mind and spirit.

Lynton Friedman and his extensive experience has shown using both the modalities mentioned above in this article to have been the most effective way to keep the stress levels at bay. Sanlyn Wellness does keep in mind that some people may be adverse to Hypnosis and Lynton has been good at educating the effects of using this technique to reinforce the positivity.

These imbalances can sometimes be unblocked using various Energy Therapy techniques. One other way Lynton Friedman of Sanlyn works with this issue is to suggest the client begin to paint as a way of flowing the energy into that area. With this suggestion comes resistance because often time’s clients think they are not talented enough to draw or paint.

"Education is key to the resistance. Teaching the client that art is subjective is the key to unlocking the flow of creation. "

What is meant by subjective is that one piece of art shown to 3 different individuals will elicit a different reaction from each of them and the observations of the 3 people are neither right nor wrong. Once this is explained, it seems to settle down the client and the seed of creating has been instilled into the psyche.

The settling effect then leads the discussion of painting and creating as an important tool for relaxation and meditation. The colours chosen by clients represent their state of mind, their emotional being and the focus on the piece brings a tunnel type processing where the mind goes into an elevated state of concentration that allows the individual to forget about the anxiety and other worries of the day. This calming effect is quite similar to a mild state of Hypnosis. The closest example of this would be someone at home watching a television show and tuning out to the world around them.

This relaxed state slows down the thinking process, calms the blood flow and most importantly clears the mind to allow the subconscious to come out and ultimately chose the creation that is best resonated to your energy at that time as well as your creativity.
