Getting to the Root Cause of What's Holding You Back

Have you ever felt like you're carrying weight that isn't yours? Like there's an invisible barrier between you and the peace, health, or joy you're seeking? What if I told you that the answer to your physical pain, recurring anxiety, or that pattern you just can't seem to break might be hiding in your subconscious—or even in the experiences of your great-great-great-grandmother?

Welcome to the world of Release and Realign, where we use muscle testing and energy clearing to get to the root cause of whatever is causing your issue. Whether it's emotional blocks, physical pain, repeating patterns, or that nagging feeling that something is "off," this work helps you identify what's truly at the core—and release it for good.

What Is Muscle Testing, Anyway?

Let's start with the basics. Muscle testing (also called applied kinesiology) is a form of biofeedback that's been used by practitioners since the 1940s. It's a simple, non-invasive way to communicate directly with your subconscious mind—the part of you that holds all your memories, experiences, and even generational patterns.

Think of your subconscious like a vast database that knows everything about you. It knows when you trapped an emotion at age seven. It knows what your body needs to heal. It even knows what your ancestors carried that might be affecting you today. The challenge? Your conscious mind doesn't always have access to this information. That's where muscle testing comes in.

Your body naturally responds to truth and lies with physical signals. You've experienced this already—when you smell something delicious, you lean in. When you encounter something foul, you pull back. Muscle testing harnesses this innate wisdom in a structured way, using simple yes-or-no questions to decode vital information from your body.

My Unique Approach: Where Therapeutic Training Meets Energy Medicine

Through my journey as a coach specializing in parenting with Human Design and holistic nutrition, I've studied multiple energy healing modalities and therapeutic approaches. What I've developed is a synthesis of these trainings combined with my own innovations—including custom emotion charts integrated with Human Design Centers, neurotransmitter assessments, allergy testing, and nutritional protocols.

This isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. When we work together, I'm drawing from a deep well of knowledge about how your unique energetic design (Human Design), your physical body's needs (holistic nutrition), and your emotional landscape all intersect. This allows us to get incredibly specific about what YOUR body needs for healing.

The Foundation: Four Principles That Change Everything

This work isn't just about technique—it's about heart. Four foundational principles guide every Release and Realign session—principles that are at the core of all authentic energy healing work:

1. Heart

Love creates health. When we work together, I become a conduit of Divine love—not because I'm perfect (far from it!), but because I allow my heart to genuinely connect with you and with the Creator. Your subconscious knows if there are unhelpful agendas at play, so everything I do comes from a place of authentic care for your wellbeing.

2. Intention

Intention is the vibrational frequency we create by focusing our expectation toward a specific result. I don't have to understand exactly how your healing will unfold—I simply intend that it will be successful. And here's a beautiful bonus: when we serve others with clear intention, we often find ourselves becoming more balanced too.

3. Connection

Every session begins with connection through prayer to Divine guidance. I ask for help from the Creator, acknowledging that I'm simply an instrument of healing. You'll be amazed at what flows through when we invite this sacred partnership into the process.

4. Gratitude

Gratitude completes the energetic circuit. Approaching this work with thankfulness—for the opportunity to serve, for the wisdom accessed, for the healing unfolding—amplifies everything.

You Are Energy (And That's Biblical!)

Here's something beautiful: everything in creation is made of energy, including you. Each person carries a unique vibrational frequency, and emotions resonate at specific frequencies too. When emotions get trapped in your body—whether from your own experiences or inherited from family lines—they create energetic blocks that can manifest as physical symptoms, mental fog, recurring patterns, or emotional struggles.

The Bible tells us, "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well" (Psalm 139:14). God designed our bodies with remarkable intelligence. Emotions don't just exist in your mind—they live in your tissues and organs. When emotional energy becomes trapped, it can actually block cell receptors, limiting vitamins and minerals from reaching your cells. This is how unprocessed emotions can manifest as illness. As the saying goes, "the body keeps the score."

Ancient wisdom discovered about 3,000 years ago that energy flows through meridians—like rivers running through the body. The governing meridian is the primary channel, connecting to all the others (similar to how the vagus nerve works in Western anatomy). When we direct healing intention through this meridian, release can happen throughout your entire energetic system.

The Magic of the Magnet (It's Not What You Think!)

You might be wondering about the magnet. Let me be clear: the magnet doesn't "fix" or "cure" anything. It's simply a tool—a conductor that amplifies healing intention, much like a magnifying glass amplifies light.

Your body continuously emits magnetic energy, and using a magnet in this work takes advantage of that natural phenomenon. I use a magnetic tool as an energetic conductor. The power doesn't come from the magnet itself—it comes from God working through our intentional focus and your body's God-given wisdom.

(Important note: We don't use magnets on anyone who is pregnant, has a pacemaker, or has health conditions affected by magnetic fields. In those cases, we use proxy or surrogate testing instead.)

Generational Healing: Breaking Chains You Didn't Know You Were Wearing

This is where things get really fascinating. The Bible speaks about generational patterns: "The Lord... maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation" (Exodus 34:6-7).

For thousands of years, people understood that patterns pass down through families. Now, modern science is catching up! Epigenetics is revealing that trauma really does leave biological markers that can be inherited. Studies have shown that experiences—especially traumatic ones—can alter gene expression, and these changes can be passed to future generations.

In my practice, I've muscle tested and cleared inherited emotions going back as far as 11 generations. ELEVEN! That means the anxiety you're feeling today might not even be yours—it could be your great-great-great-grandmother's fear that never got processed.

But here's the beautiful part: you get to be the one who breaks the cycle. When you release an inherited emotion, you're not just freeing yourself—you're potentially freeing your children, your grandchildren, and generations to come. You're fulfilling what Jesus said: "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed" (John 8:36).

The Human Design Connection: Your Unique Energetic Blueprint

Here's where my approach gets really specific to YOU. In Human Design, we understand that each person has nine energy centers that process different aspects of life—emotions, communication, identity, intuition, and more. When trapped emotions lodge in specific centers, they create disruption in those areas of your life.

I've created custom emotion charts that correspond to each Human Design center, allowing us to pinpoint exactly where emotional blocks are affecting your unique energetic design. For example:

  • Emotions trapped in your Throat Center might be blocking your ability to express yourself

  • Blocks in your Solar Plexus might be creating emotional overwhelm or difficulty processing feelings

  • Trapped emotions in your Sacral Center could be affecting your life force energy and vitality

By combining muscle testing with your Human Design chart, we're not just clearing emotions randomly—we're strategically releasing what's specifically blocking YOUR centers, based on YOUR design.

Beyond Emotions: A Holistic Approach to Root Causes

While emotions are often at the core, sometimes the root cause goes deeper into physical imbalances. That's where my background in holistic nutrition comes in. During our sessions, I might also test for:

  • Neurotransmitter imbalances that could be affecting your mood and energy

  • Nutritional deficiencies that are making it harder for your body to process emotions

  • Food sensitivities or allergies that are creating inflammation and blocking healing

  • Toxin exposure that's burdening your system

  • Structural imbalances that need attention

This comprehensive approach means we're addressing the WHOLE you—body, mind, and spirit.

What Happens in a Release and Realign Session?

Let me walk you through what you can expect when we work together:

Getting Ready

We start by making sure we're both well-hydrated (dehydration can interfere with accurate testing). Then I connect with Divine guidance through prayer or intention-setting, and we both take three deep breaths to ground ourselves in the present moment.

Checking In

I test to make sure your energy is clear and that we're ready to work. If you're present with me, we'll use direct muscle testing. If you're at a distance, I'll use proxy testing—temporarily tuning into your energy to access your subconscious. (Don't worry, I always disconnect this connection when we're done!)

Finding the Root Cause

This is where the detective work begins. I'll ask your subconscious simple yes-or-no questions: "Is there a trapped emotion that can be released now?" If yes, we narrow down which emotion it is using my custom emotion charts—often identifying which Human Design center it's affecting.

We might discover it's grief from age 12 lodged in your Heart Center, or inherited anger from your father's side going back 5 generations affecting your Root Center, or fear that got trapped last month during a stressful event and is now blocking your Throat.

Sometimes we'll find a "blockage"—a cluster of several emotions all linked together around a single event. When this happens, we release them one by one.

I might also test for other root causes: nutritional deficiencies, neurotransmitter imbalances, food sensitivities, or structural issues that need attention.

Getting the Full Story

Before releasing, I'll ask if there's anything else we need to know. What age were you when this emotion got trapped? What was the source? Is there a specific event connected to it? Is this affecting a specific Human Design center? Your subconscious knows exactly what we need to understand.

The Release

For emotions from your own life experiences, I'll roll a magnet (or my hand) along the governing meridian—with clear intention for release. For inherited emotions, we often need more passes, as these patterns are often more deeply embedded.

Then we test: "Has this been cleared?" If yes, we're done with that one! If no, we pause, reconnect to Source, breathe, and try again.

Repeating Until Complete

We continue identifying and releasing until your subconscious says, "Nope, we're done for today." Your body knows its own capacity for processing, and we always honor that.

Integration Time

After the session, you might feel lighter, emotional, peaceful, or extra sensitive. Some people cry; others feel energized. These sensations can continue for several days as your body recalibrates and integrates the shifts. This is completely normal and healthy—it's your body's way of processing what's been released.

A Word for My Faith-Based Friends

If you're wondering whether this aligns with your Christian faith, I want to speak directly to your heart. Throughout Scripture, we see God's people ministering healing through physical touch and intention. Jesus healed through touch. The disciples laid hands on people. The early church practiced these things regularly.

"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God?" (1 Corinthians 6:19)

If our bodies are temples, then caring for them—physically, emotionally, and spiritually—is an act of worship. Clearing trapped emotions and inherited trauma is like cleansing the temple, making room for the Holy Spirit to dwell more fully within us.

The question is never about the method—it's about the source. When we begin with connection to the Divine, acknowledge God as the source of all healing, and operate from a heart of love and faith, we're working within Biblical principles. I'm not the healer; I'm simply a vessel. God is the one who does the work.

And let's be honest: many practices labeled as "New Age" are actually ancient wisdom that Christians have practiced for millennia—meditation on God's word, contemplative prayer, fasting, laying on of hands, discernment of spirits. The difference is always in where we're directing our attention. Are we inviting God's presence, or something else?

When you work with me, you're working with someone who comes through the Creator. Every session begins with Divine connection. Every release gives glory to God. This is Kingdom work—helping people experience the freedom Christ purchased for them.

What Can Release and Realign Help With?

You might be surprised by how many issues have emotional or energetic roots:

  • Physical pain that doctors can't fully explain

  • Anxiety or depression that seems to come out of nowhere

  • Repeating patterns in relationships, money, or self-sabotage

  • Unexplained fears or phobias

  • Difficulty sleeping

  • Feeling stuck in any area of life

  • Low energy or chronic fatigue

  • Digestive issues (the gut holds A LOT of emotion!)

  • Inherited patterns you can sense but can't quite name

  • Challenges living aligned with your Human Design

  • Nutritional absorption issues

  • Food sensitivities creating symptoms

  • Parenting struggles (especially when patterns are triggering you)

The beauty of getting to the root cause is that we're not just managing symptoms—we're pulling out the weed by its roots so it can't grow back.

Think of It Like This...

Imagine your body as a jar. Every time you experience stress, trauma, or an emotion you don't fully process, it's like dropping a pebble into the jar. One pebble isn't a big deal. But over months, years, and even generations, those pebbles accumulate. Eventually, just one more tiny pebble causes everything to overflow.

That overflow might look like a panic attack, chronic pain, a sudden illness, or a complete breakdown. But here's the good news: we can remove those pebbles. We can clear the jar. And suddenly, you have space to breathe again.

Ready to Get to the Root?

If you've been carrying weight that isn't yours, if you're tired of surface-level solutions that don't last, if you're ready to experience real, lasting freedom—Release and Realign might be exactly what you've been searching for.

Your subconscious already knows what needs to be healed. Your body is ready to release what no longer serves you. And generations of patterns are waiting for someone brave enough to break the cycle.

That someone could be you.

Let's find out what's really at the root, release it with intention and love, and realign you with the peace, health, and joy you were created to experience.
