What is “transrelational healing?”

Transrelational healing: Understanding how all of our important relationships are connected - including the relationship with ourselves - and healing the wounds related to them.

The core premise of transrelational healing is that the relationships people have when they are adults are usually directly related to the relationships they had with a caregiver or their experiences in childhood. It operates from the perspective that all relationships are interconnected or related in this way. Therefore, the healing needs to span those different types of relationships. "Transrelational" also refers to the body + mind + spirit triad and treating them as parts of a cohesive whole, rather than as separate entities.

It is not possible to have healthy relationships as an adult until you have addressed and/or healed unhealthy attachments, beliefs and relationships from the past. So much of how we operate is conditioning. The beliefs and ideas that people internalize as children stay with them through adulthood, often unconsciously. These things affect our self-concept, our decision-making, our belief structures and many other things.

The 5 Steps:

  • Identifying patterns

  • Understanding past conditioning & how it applies to present life

  • Addressing old wounds

  • Breaking past conditioning

  • Reprogramming healthy behavior

+ Through each step, address how the conditioning affects The Whole Self: mind + body + spirit

  1. Mind has been programmed with thoughts, beliefs and emotions

  2. Body has been programmed with physical reactions and addictions

  3. Spirit has been diminished and repressed; faith has been damaged
