classic stage 4 experience; I have had enough of playing small and I am ready to take my power, strength, determination, m courage, focus, femininity, masculinity, decisiveness back! I deserve to no longer lessen who I am and I deserve to no longer play small in my life. You do this by building chi in the area of disempowerment or frustration or stuck-ness.
goal: to gain strength and determination to create a new standard and step up in how we have been interfacing with a circumstance.
Anthony Robbins was about to have another back surgery when he discovered Network Care: “I am stronger, more inspired, creative, and healthy because of this work. It has personally helped me to maximize my ability to contribute to others.
U know I was telling my husband I feel like I unraveled this situation because of our spinal work. Sometimes as your spine aligns your life tries to align as well. Not sure if I’m making sense. But it’s like things I closed my eyes to and avoided seeing… But as I progressed with my NSA care I chose to go look at the mess. Or my eyes opened. Hehe.thanks!
I had suffered from extreme back pain since I was a teenager after I had surgery in which there were rods fixed to my spine to correct my scoliosis. After the surgery, I still had pain, and I lost feeling to my mid back. For the past 8 years my pain got worse, I became very depressed, and eventually I needed a wheelchair for long distances, and a walker for short distances. I had to stop going to school and work. I saw everyone in the medical system (orthopedists, pain specialists, physical therapy, neurologists), and numerous alternative health practitioners (chiropractors, massage) and no one could help me. The medical doctors said that my problems were all in my head, but I knew they weren’t. My sister had seen Dr. Linda Bedessian and recommended that I take three weeks off, and come to see her. My neurologist agreed, and said that I should try it because the medical doctors didn’t have any idea of what to do. I was in incredible pain at this time, and they took me through the airport in a wheelchair. Later that day we saw Dr. Linda for my first treatment, and my life changed! In one session I could turn my head more than I had since I was 12, my pain levels dropped, and I felt that there was a weight lifted from my body. By the end of the first week, she saw me multiple times a day, I no longer needed the walker, or the wheelchair. By the end of the 3rd week, I regained feeling in my mid-back (the medical doctors said I would never feel this part of me again). I was feeling so good, that I decided to move closer to Dr. Linda’s office and start a new life here for myself. Care with Dr. Linda has been a miracle that gave me my life back, and I can see a new future for myself now that I couldn’t imagine before!
That this lady, Dr.Linda is amazing, not ur usual chiro… My friends told me to check her out by saying, adjusting your biomechanics can help transform ur life!! I was curious! I had 2 shoulder surgeries at the same area, and feeling horrible with the pain, and emotional drain. I had issues with personal relationships that were hurting me for a long time and not knowing how to deal with it. The movements in the body brought a lot of peace in the heart and it stays with u. Thru further care of NSA, u deepen the connection of ur mind to ur emotions and the body and healing happens on all levels. my speedy recovery on a revision surgery even took my physiotherapist and orthopedic doctor by surprise, and made them curious about Dr.Linda and NSA. The moment came for me to connect to and release through sounds/ noises that was when i could let the healing come thru like this, and boy major stones just lifted! I express sadness and anger thru gnarls and growls during care because as my body opened those sounds came out not even thinking why u do it but just doing it is amazing. This healing brings this awareness to your daily life and makes u recognize how strong a person u are. sometimes we forget. we think pain and anger and sadness destroys us, it doesn’t. it’s about seeing the perfection in it so that you can enjoy happiness and peace subsequently to things surrounding life itself. i am more in control of my boundaries that i set for myself. not soft boundaries that fly away but solid ones that stays with ur vindication. i stopped my neck cracking and somehow my body pain lessened, like it knew i was loving it now. The beauty of connection thru the body emotions mind and then the soul and not asking why, but just working on it and giving feedback to Dr Linda is important so she can work deeper into your issues. The journey to self discovery doesn’t end and it is going to be even more amazing if u make the effort to journal the transformation that comes thru.
I have been in Linda’s care for a few months. MY story is similar to Cinderalla. My dad had 2 wives. I lived with 6 step siblings & stepmon fr age 7yrs to 12yrs.So humuliation is everyday life. Huge level of angers & hates loaded on me. In teen till adulthood, Expectations fr mum to show “me off as good gal” to proof step siblings wrong was “Huge”. Life was simply dutiful & roles to fulfill nvr ending. As a result of Dr. Linda’s care, NSA, I begin to be aware my life dynamics often attracts lots of “dependent people”, “habitual takers”, “demanders & commanders” etc. At some point, I didn’t know what I was living for, I felt lost. I am more aware now and as a result making different choices. Baby steps at a time. Who knew all this would open up from my spine. Yes, a sure “Yes”. Some people around me are getting uncomfortable now. And I dropped off some people along the way to make spaces for new ones. I feel more connected to Universe. Same food i ate taste much aromatic. This is craze!
“I feel great! The way that I respond to the things that happen in my life is what has changed the most. That is, stress still happens, but I handle it differently. I also feel more alert, more in touch with my body, and I have more energy. My body craves healthier food and I’m sleeping better than ever.” Stylist.
I am going through a divorce and everything in my life feels so out of control – finances, home, back, breathing, etc. With Dr. Linda, I am learning to find stability in my body and find new resources and strategies to be able to face all the uncertainty in my life. As a result I am not drinking my pains away and I am watching a lot less TV, facing what I have to face and taking constructive actions.
“I used to be very closed off to relationships, love and being vulnerable. This work has opened my heart and allowed my husband to approach me. It’s given me a better sense of self, groundedness, peace, and connection(I could go on and on). Now life flows easily. I can make decisions, even when I don’t want to or when I feel it’s a hard decision, and know it was the right decision.”
I just wanted to share what an amazing journey of self discovery and actualization I’ve had these past couple of weeks.. it’s been a roller coaster.. and I’ve realized why and what I need to feel and do. How it affects my thoughts, feelings and behavior. I am understanding myself and others more and that it’s ok to be vulnerable and show it sometimes, to build trust within myself and of others. It was never about not wanting to grow up or get older but to feel and look at the world as how a child would. With openness and curiosity and trust… the uncertainty of it all.. ? taking a leap of faith. “Dance like no one is watching, love like you’ve never been hurt before, sing like no one’s listening, and live as though heaven is on earth. “ – Souza
NSA & SRI have alowed me to re-connect with emotions that i have burried for decades. I now realize that I have been socialized my entire life to suppress and disconnect with feelings of anger and sadness in particular. As a parent, I would get trigered when my kids expressed these emotions as well. I found myself guiding them to be more positive by perpetuating the same socialization that i received as a child. However, I am now more able to support and encourage my kids when they express sadness, anger, frustration, disappointment, etc. I can see their behavior as a natural part of the emotional spectrum. Instead of telling them to “cheer up” or “get over it,” or trying to distract their sadness with humor to change their state, I can now be calmly present with them as they express their emotions freely and without judgement. This approach is strengthening the level of connection and trust that I am building with my kids. As a result, our kids now rebound from feelings of anger and frustration more easily and faster than before. They also seem to find it more acceptable and “normal” to feel whatever they are feeling and express it in tears or whatever. I admit that kids shouting in the house when they are angry was never done when i was young and that takes getting used to (trigger check!) but they just seem more comfortable in their own skin.
Linda, been thinking where to begin with my care journey! Here it is so far, I came to you as I was in a stage of life where I was feeling v flat and not knowing why. I have a beautiful family, loving husband and lovely children and a newly built home and surrounded by many loved ones and blessings. Life is gd but I was not waking up feeling the zest for life. After the first session, I was quite struck by the burst of energy I had after the nap.. I felt refreshed and recharged and so was v drawn to Hv more! Subsequent sessions saw that I was in the extreme fatigue phase, needed to sleep a lot and I felt a lot more aches and pain that I never experienced before. Ironic. But along the way, one of the sessions you told me abt my compressed anger / feelings… And I have flashes of incidents that happened to me that resonated in me. It’s almost like God talking to me. Anyhow I thought abt it and processed and next came another session where you spoke abt learning to say no rather than yes.. Responsibility vs what I really wanted! This boundary issue has been my struggle all the time. All my life been I have been a highly responsible person so I take on a lot even though I shld say no to a lot of it. Anyhow.. The weeks following I find myself learning to say no more.. Esp to the small things and it feels like I have a lot more freedom. And am catching myself a lot more these days to discern when to say yes and no. Another shift came when you talked about pushing my chest forward and allowing myself to be more feminine. That struck me a lot. Cos really am not v feminine.. Assuming a lot of masculine roles at home prob because of my childhood and my hubby being so busy I take on a lot more just to free him a bit more. But that meant also in our relationship I was in command. Gd and bad I suppose. Unknowingly, I began to let go and let him lead, almost allowing myself to let him take care of me. And I suppose being in care together meant we could openly share about our experience and he also noticed the shift. And lastly as I find myself less fatigued and more alive, I am able to reconnect with God / my soul and have clearer directions, I find myself doing less but more (in terms of quality) being more present and more focused. Slowly I am finding that range of emotions from being explosive (expressive) to being passionate and loving . Think more being true to my emotions rather than keeping those emotions in there. Am not sure I make sense but it certainly feels right for me. Am looking forward to more transformation.
I totally recommend NSA for a myriad of things! I went to see Dr Linda because I had unexplained eczema and my neck hurt so much. I would get spasms of pain every two weeks. I thought it was my line of work or pillow and I changed it to a really expensive one lol. But it still hurt. I finally took my friend’s advice to go to one of Dr Linda’s talks after the first trial session with her, I was hooked. She said things about me just from feeling my spine that no one else could have known about! As I progress with each session, I feel myself changing. My body’s feedback increased, I can feel how much feedback I hadn’t been getting from my body, my neck doesn’t hurt anymore (it’s been pain free for 5 mths), the eczema has lessened by 60 percent, and most amazing of all are the emotional effects. I feel a lot calmer and less triggered by stuff. It’s a really useful and amazing state to be in. When tough stuff gets thrown your way, my reaction nowadays is more like just uggghh let’s deal with it! Still looking forward to more sessions. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for me!
I am a banker and have a lot of workplace stress; I came to Dr. Linda with sleep problems and overall anxiety. I basically had been taking xanax along with a bottle of wine to sleep for about 6 months straight. What I realized in care is that this anxiety and almost inability to shut my mind off was me not acknowledging or allowing myself to feel or experience any of the range of emotions I had experienced on a daily basis. If it wasn’t convenient or didn’t follow my plan then it got shoved away, in my back initially until it was convenient to feel them, which was never! Now I am connecting with my body and allowing myself to be with these emotions, and discovering what they really mean. I am beginning to trust in my ability to face life. I am no longer needing the alcohol or pills to sleep. I feel motivated empowered to finally make the changes in my life.
My daughter: My child came to Dr. Linda emotionally wound up and needing help to express herself in a constructive way. I was awed that she responded within the first session, and was even more awed that with one touch, Linda immediately knew (with no back story) how to help her. Within the first week, she had an improved demeanour and became significantly less combative. By the third session, she was responding in a positive manner that others around her noticed the big shift. Most importantly, as a child growing into a tween and later on a young woman, I’m confident that she’s being equipped to tap into her inner helpful resources to manage life in an increasingly challenging world. Myself: Having my child in care made me acutely aware that I needed to be in care myself so that I can understand the process. It also helped me work through patterns that no longer served me so that I don’t penalise my existing or future relationships— be it personal or at work— over past experiences. Linda is a compassionate healer who requires you to be fully present to work with her, so show up with the right attitude and you’ll reap the benefits of an engaged process.
Care with Dr. Linda has been a benefit to me, and also the clients that I have referred to Dr.Linda. As a Psychologist, I see many people who get stuck in life. I have seen the power that NSA care can have in freeing the nervous system from old tensions and stuck patterns. NSA care allows for new flexibility, freedom and opportunity for growth in both physical and emotional/mental areas. It produces profound physical changes, emotional well-being, healthier views of life, better relationships with others and one’s self, and supports confidence and self-esteem. For this reason, I refer my clients to Linda, for co-managment of the patient and continue to personally enjoy the benefits of care for myself.
Steph came in with hip pain thinking she injured it running and this is where she is now after a year of care: It has been over a year that I have been participating in Network Spinal Analysis Care with Dr. Linda Bedessian. I have experienced so much clarity, connected with my self-worth and been given tools to identify patterns I have used over the last 40 years that are absolutely, positively, NO GOOD or effective any longer. I am able to identify aches and pains and know where they stem from. It is not about getting rid of these pains, it is more about identifying what fuels these pains and getting in touch with the cause to reuse the negative energy in a more positive and efficient way. Our bodies give us signals and most people are so intent on getting rid of the pain instead of realizing the true intention of the signal. I am most grateful to Dr. Linda for assisting me in connecting with the true soul that I came here to be. Without her I would be continuing to sell my self short and play small. I intend to be the best version of me and I am well on my way, thanks to Dr. Linda. Forever Grateful
Here are some of my major aha moments…. I discovered and transformed/am transforming 3 major things about myself after seeing Dr.Linda. All linked to childhood patterns of being a toughie and always being rational. 1. I discovered that I have a problem letting myself be sad. It was always “ok I got hurt, let’s get up and move on. Don’t whine, don’t cry. Shit happens.” I hardly cried after I got divorced cos I was too busy picking up the pieces rationally. And I didn’t realise how much I was hurting 5 years on. After crying shitloads and feeling the hurt during my sessions as my spine opened up, I look at my x now and I don’t even remember why I was even angry with him in the first place. And magically the dynamics between him and I shifted after I truly worked through the hurt. We actually joke about the kids and stuff now! 2. In line with the no whining rule I had because I was brought up by a tough love kinda mom, I also have huge problems being vulnerable. People that act like victims or damsels drove me crazy. They still do, but my reaction has reduced to one eye roll and not eye rolls that last a day. This is still a #WIP!!! I realize that this is a part of me I had denied, not allowed. 3. I also used to be really angry at my mom for being so strict with me and making me study so much and think in such a linear manner. I felt that she stifled my creativity and turned me into this stiff machine. But this also turned out to be my biggest gift from life. I am by nature intuitive, almost spacey and I get these “insights” almost like a download. Most of the times I feel something and have no “reasons” to back it up. But because of the training with my mom I can now _reverse_ engineer my explanations for a feeling to explain my point to a “rational person” so “it makes sense”. So now I can act like a translator. I download a point first then translate and explain in human language. It’s like I speak two languages and I love it!! Thanks mom! NSA and Dr.Linda have helped me align my spine and it opened up my life and made me realize things I used to hate are actually assets.
NSA care inspires us to trust the healing powers within.
Candace Pert recommends Network Care in her book Molecules of Emotion: “Network Spinal Analysis represents the epitome of body work; it is at the leading of body/mind/spirit integration. This work will transform the planet.
I would NEVER have gotten anywhere with any kind of therapy or healing just talking about it. You see the amazing thing about NSA is… all this stuff. I have thought about. And talked about to ad nauseum. But it’s only when it has a physical correlate, when you get to it through your body that it truly resonAtes and becomes an aha and an epiphany.
