Description
Hi, it's Dr Manon Bolliger, ND and I want to welcome you to the Healers Cafe.
I am so excited to be doing this series of interviews and what I'll be doing is, is asking all kinds of healthcare practitioners, doctors, healers of all types, to really share with all of you their experience, why they became healers, what called them what they think about this being a healer thing. Is it, a thing? Who's really healing in this, what they've experienced from their their interaction with clients and patients and what the takeaways and understanding of what the process of healing is all about and the process of life. So that's the essence of what I'm doing. I'm hoping that this will serve also for patients that have issues and are looking for different ways of approaching it.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Dr. Manon Bolliger ND (retired*) , talks with Anissa Young who is a Bowen therapist, hypnotherapist, mind and soul coach. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/anissa-young Highlights from today's episode include: Anissa Young So, the hypnotherapy and the Bowen therapy works so beautifully together. Because I mean, I know Bowen therapies designed to get you out of your fight and flight and back to your resting, relax, and repair. But hypnotherapy on top of that, like amplifies it, because they're already resting their mind, they're already in relaxation mode, mind and body before I even get them on the table. So even if I do a short, super short relaxation hypnotherapy session, I find that once they're on the table, they're already super relaxed Anissa Young 08:49 I think because my hypnotherapist teacher said you know, once you find your therapy that works for you, you don't need anything else. You know, you don't need to look for...if hypnotherapy works for you, you do hypnotherapy. If Bowen therapy works for you do Bowen therapy. If you know chiropractic works for you, you do you go and take chiropractor. And I sort of thought well, but why aren't we mixing things? Like yeah, one thing can work for you 100% one thing can work for you. But what about if we if we did multiple things and we and we integrated them? You know how amazing would that be? Anissa Young 13:58 I'm working even more on tapping into and helping the client to understand because half the time they don't understand that that's happening. And that could be what's happening. And that could be where, you know, it could be grief, it could be trauma, it could be physical trauma, it could be emotional trauma, and, and it's trapped in the body. It's been there for a long time, they've had this ongoing injury. BIO: Anissa Young I have always wanted to help others. I was a teacher for 20 years. I ended up hating my life, hating my job. Anxious to go to work, stressed about stressing. I went to my Bowen therapist for migraines and stress and gallstones; my gallbladder would later come out and she said, “you could do this” and that was the beginning for me. As soon as I had my first practical module, I knew that this is what I wanted to do. I then wanted more….. hypnotherapy came next. And this feels really natural to me. I love calming people down, relaxing them and “fixing” them. I facilitate a women’s once a month and I get so much from these. Core purpose/passion: Happiness!

In this episode of The Healers Café, Dr. Manon Bolliger, ND, chats with Dr. Ali Lankerani, The Parent Whisperer, is internationally published & best-selling author, twice-voted as one of America’s Top Doctors, hosts the TV channel Role Model Maker, has additional training in Chiropractic Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture . For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/dr-ali-lankerani Highlights from today's episode include: Dr. L Of course, there's difficulty in dealing with children who have learning disabilities. And in that process, you know, their parenting and the parent relationship is strained. The spouse or relationship is strained as far as the approach to how to deal with the situation, finances are strained. So I didn't want the families to go through what I went through, and I want it to be more on the prevention side of things. Dr. L 05:42 The limitations in practice were number one related to, first of all, how I could practice the scope of practice, what you're allowed to do, what you're allowed to say. You go to school, and after you get your diploma, you would think that you're qualified now to go and help people. And then comes the state and the local legislation, the federal legislation, so you go through those hoops, and then there is insurance. And you have to keep jumping through these hoops, to kind of prove yourself that you're capable and qualified enough to help people. Dr. L So the list kind of goes on, and I realized that the best way that I personally could serve was by seeing that light bulb go on in the patient's minds, because once they understood the bigger picture of how their body works, and how they could go ahead and empower themselves and make differences and changes in their lives, then they naturally and automatically would go and seek the right solutions for themselves instead of me having to drag them along and convince everybody else along the way. About Dr L Dr. Ali Lankerani, affectionately known by his patients as Dr. L, The Parent Whisperer, is a clinical neuroscientist with a background in chiropractic medicine.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Dr. Manon Bolliger, ND, chats with Dr Heli McPhie, ND who truly believes in the power and beauty of collaborative medicine, connection and community Listen to the full story today! https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/drhelimcphie Highlights from today's episode include: Michelle Barrial (06:06): So really we have this energy flowing through us and then there's energy all around us in our environment. So you're really connecting to that universal energy. And what you're doing is you're acting as a channel so that the energy flows through you. And that's where you can sense if there's blockages in the person's, I call it their highway, their bio highway. So if you can sense that there's a blockages much like traffic it's blocked sometimes and backed up, it's the same way with our body. So when you can sense that there's a blockage in the area due to a physical symptom, or again, due to some kind of spiritual or mental block, then what I do is just transmit the energy through myself that I channeled it as a channel. And then that's when I can feel that it starts to break up or sort of dissolve, I could feel and have that sensation that it's, it's opening up the channel. Michelle Barrial (17:42): So our conscious mind is what we're in most of the time, but in reality, our subconscious mind is the mind where your memory is longterm memories, part of where your imagination is. So, and it's also where you have a lot of beliefs from childhood traumas and things that you don't remember that come up that are still affecting you today as an adult. Michelle Barrial (40:02): So in my book, I talk about the ways that you can create a healthy life, body minded spirit. So I talk about how to relax physically like mind hacks for sleeping. I talk about breathing how important it is to, to maintain your breath control, particularly when your emotions try to take over, and then you wanna help yourself to be calm again and, and feel like you're not losing control, but rather that you're are in control of your emotions. So I teach steps in there for breathing with a few exercises. About Michelle Barrial: Dr. McPhie's passion for medicine and healing began at a very young age growing up in Zambia and South Africa. Building upon her love of the natural world and science, she completed her undergraduate degree in Biology at McGill University, and then went on to complete a 4 year study of natural medicine at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine, completed 2 years of clinical practice in Toronto, and then returned to the West Coast to continue her career. She has operated a successful family practice for over 20 years seeing patients of all ages from all over the lower mainland, across Canada and abroad. Dr McPhie lectures frequently at universities, colleges and to the public. She has a passion for creating connections and community. Dr. McPhie believes loneliness and isolation are an under considered social determinant if health. Our health suffers greatly if we are lonely and lack connection. As a result, Dr. McPhie does workshops with teachers and community groups where play, active learning, creativity and connections are used to find solutions and reduce loneliness in vulnerable populations. She believes that connecting people to themselves and each other is powerful medicine for keeping us healthy and happy. She was the recipient of the David Schleich President's award of Excellence and the Dr. Patricia Wales award for her significant contribution to the development of the naturopathic profession in Canada. She was also recognised by UBC as Mentor of the Year for her many years as a mentor in the nutritional sciences program. Dr. Mcphie is very passionate about treating a wide variety of conditions for the whole family with naturopathic medicine. She has a general naturopathic practice and therefore treats a wide variety of conditions and concerns. Dr Mcphie is an avid supporter of children's health and prevention.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Mike who emphasized the importance of accurate pain assessment and the potential impact of psychological factors like placebo effect.

Mike suggested alternative pain-inducing activities to potentially aid healing. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/mike-sententia2 Highlights from today's episode include: Mike and the importance of honest feedback from clients—encouraging them to report truthfully even when a technique doesn’t work, as this helps practitioners refine and improve their healing methods. Mike explains the shift from using the term “suppress” to “neutralize” or “cancel out” energy signatures, to better describe his pain reduction technique and avoid negative connotations. Manon explains the need for thorough, transparent assessment and follow-up of pain intensity and frequency, so practitioners and clients have accurate benchmarks to measure healing progress. ABOUT MIKE SENTENTIA: I’m Mike. After studying and practicing energy healing 20+ years, I’ve developed a unique system of energy healing, specifically designed for chronic pain conditions. I’m truly so grateful for every client who’s placed their faith in me and who I’ve been able to help get back to doing what they love most over the past two decades. They’re the reason I do this work! In addition to being an energy healer for chronic pain, I’m also a science geek and love reading research. My books cover holistic care techniques that actually work, and the evidence behind them. Core purpose/passion: The mission of Healing Lab is to see Energy Healing integrated into mainstream medical practice and to see it covered by insurance in the same way that acupuncture is becoming. We know there is modern science behind energy healing even if we don’t fully understand all the mechanisms yet.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks Xavier Roman shared his journey of discovering his healing abilities at age five, when he healed a crying mother and child by channeling a white light. He recounted his near-death experience during appendicitis surgery, where he observed the operation and brought himself back to life. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/xavier-roman Highlights from today's episode include: Xavier discovered his healing abilities as a child and continued to develop them, often helping others without revealing his gift. Xavier explains a near-death experience profoundly shaped his understanding of healing, and he now demonstrates his energy healing process to help others, as shown during the podcast. Manon reflects on the healing process, emphasizing the importance of the healer-client relationship and the integration of energetic and traditional therapies for holistic health. ABOUT XAVIER ROMAN: My name is Xavier, and I can heal people facing any physical, emotional, or mental health concerns with in-person and distance healing. My healing abilities emerged at age five and heightened when my mom was in a near-death car accident. That experience allowed me to use my healing capabilities to support her healing journey. My gift of channeling energy to heal became stronger after I experienced an NDE & Near-Death Experience; during emergency surgery in July 2010. I flat lined, witnessed my surgery, and heard the surgeon and assistants as they scattered to bring me back to life. Since then, my body and mind healing techniques have continued to strengthen and emerge. I’ve met with and continue to help people on a national basis. People with chronic pain, undiagnosed and diagnosed health issues, mental health issues, and more. I’ve also supported individuals who were told they would pass away due to various medical conditions and restored them back to stable health conditions. Although I’ve never announced my healing abilities at great lengths to others, I’ve been guided to do so now. I truly feel called to connect with those needing healing more than ever. People may think you need to be a saint or a mystical figure to perform healing. However, I have been presented with this gift and have received thousands of testimonials from my clients on transformations that have occurred through and after healing sessions with me. I welcome the billions of people on this planet to have hope and welcome the power of energy healing into their lives.
