PSH Therapy

A revolutionary new form of healing.
A new therapy for the new Millennium.

By George Gintilas  Melbourne, Australia.
6th March 1997

PSH stands for Private Subconscious-mind Healing. It is
a new form of therapy that originated in Sydney Australia
five years ago and has begun to grow quickly Australia
wide since, with a very high (monitored) success rate.

In its simplest terms, the aim of PSH Therapy is.

To get to the original, emotional cause of your pain or
problem and release it permanently.

What makes PSH Therapy so different?

The difference between PSH and other approaches is that
it is not an invasive method, which calls upon clients to relive
traumatic experiences, nor does the therapist need to delve
into a client's history. Rather it is done privately, gently and
quickly within the client's inner mind.

The entire process takes only a few sessions (no years of
therapy) and is similar to a guided meditation.  During the
process you sit in a chair and have your eyes closed. You
do not say anything, think anything, dig up anything or work
anything out  consciously.

The three basic principles that underlie the work (and reasons
why so few sessions are necessary) can be found in the title,
PSH. It's also a simple way to describe the therapy.

P for Private  There is no digging up of the past

PSH Therapy is very private. With PSH, there is no need to
uncover and know why you have a particular problem.

In traditional therapy it is a common understanding that in order
to heal something you have to feel it, understand it, know why it
is there, work it out, bring it to consciousness. In PSH it is the
opposite. The less you interfere with a person's private vulnerable
inner self, (especially at the core) the more that part can heal
naturally in a far more complete way than any therapist delving in
could ever do.

Why is this so? Because - the original cause of your problem is
normally the most vulnerable part in your bodymind. The original
cause is like an anchor that started and has kept your problem in
place over the years. This part is normally the part that has the
strongest defense, the heaviest guard and the most protection
because it is the most vulnerable. It makes logical sense. And
anyone who threatens to expose the most vulnerable part within
you only forces that part to clamp down and hide more! So
nothing changes deep down where it counts. So we get the
common situation where people keep going back to therapy,
week after week for years, trying to 'uncover' or 'get to the
bottom' of a problem/symptom with little long-term lasting effect.

PSH was born with the discovery that you do not need to uncover
and know the cause of your problem in order to heal it permanently.
In fact not delving in actually speeds up the healing process. In PSH
we have found a way to heal the original emotional cause without
removing the defenses. So the majority of people after PSH have
no idea what was released and why, all they know is that they are
better and that it's real. It's the results that really matter.

S for Subconscious  The majority of the work is done by your
inner body-feeling mind, not your conscious rational mind.

Your subconscious is simply that  sub of your conscious - the part
of your intelligence that you are normally not conscious of. And it's
the biggest part!

Also known as the 'unconscious', 'inner mind', 'feeling mind', or
'body mind'.  It's the part of you that is operating below your
conscious awareness all the time. Running things your conscious
mind could never keep up with. Beating your heart, blinking your
eyes, nodding your head, healing bleeding cuts and healing emotions.
You are not normally conscious of all theses and other processes
within you, and you are not conscious of them because you don't
need to be! You'd go crazy if you were.

Now - just because you are not conscious of something, doesn't
mean it isn't happening. We have been brought up in a society,
which overvalues the conscious mind slow logic process and
undervalues the body/feeling process mind (subconscious) within us.

Working things out and understanding why they are there is a
conscious mind invention. Note this: It is not the job of your
conscious mind to heal your deep emotional problems.  It is
the job of your subconscious body, your deep inner feeling mind.

H for Healing  You are your own healer. The work is done by you.

In PSH therapy, the therapist is only a guide. You are the one
doing the work and healing, for yourself. The therapist is not there
to fix you, you are there to fix yourself. The power to heal you is in
you, just as the power to heal me is in me. That's where the most
power lies. In PSH therapy you are gently guided to do it for
yourself. How you do it within you is totally unique to you. There
are thousands of ways it can go within you. The therapist doesn't
need to know, you consciously don't even need to know. The part
of you that needs to know - already knows. And it is that part that
gently begins to release itself. It is you doing it, but you are doing
it
so deeply that you are not conscious of it.

How many sessions do I need?

Three to four sessions maximum. The fourth session in normal
optional after a minimum of six weeks. There is also a
questionnaire that is mailed out, four and twelve months after
the last session for feedback.

Just because the process is three to four sessions doesn't mean
that it's a 'quick fix'. Results can definitely show up very quickly
within hours or days of a session, but they can also progress very
subtly over a number of months. Once a root cause is released,
the results like branches of a tree flow and extend throughout the
body at different rates, and some branches may take some time
to let go.

What Problems are Emotionally Based?
 More and more research is surfacing now that is showing a major
link between our health problems and our feelings and emotions.
Scientists have now discovered that there is a link between our
immune system and our mind/brain. And that link is our emotions.

Based on past PSH research, clients have reported significant
changes with one or more of the following conditions:

Behavioural: Compulsive and/or addictive behaviour (eg. overeating,
spending, smoking), stuttering, aggression, nail biting, etc.

Mental: Stress, memory and concentration problems, uncomfortable
dreams and nightmares, uncontrolled fears and phobias, depression
and postnatal depression, performance blocks (sexual, sport, study
etc.), creative blocks, insomnia and others.

Emotional: Low self esteem, lack of confidence, shyness, jealousy,
guilt, anger, inappropriate grief periods, and other often manifesting
in relationship problems.

Physical (where there is no underlying organic cause): migraines,
eczema and other skin disorders, muscle tension, ulcers, irritable
bowel syndrome, fatigue and other stress related conditions often
labelled as 'psychosomatic'.

A Holistic Therapy
You may have one particular symptom that brings you to the
therapy that is the biggest problem or pain. However that is not
the only symptom that may be released/cleared. PSH is a holistic
therapy. It doesn't work on just one problem or symptom. All
problems are interrelated. Any therapy that tries to heal one
symptom without considering the whole will patch up one problem
only to have it surface elsewhere in the body.

Clients frequently comment that they were pleasantly surprised
when they had other symptoms clear up that they never
considered being a problem or emotionally based.

The implications for your daily life.

Motto's in this therapy.

The following motto's/phrases can be framed and hung in any
good PSH Therapist's office. On the surface, to the logical mind,
they may sound a bit bizarre, but to a PSH Therapist they make
a lot of sense. The more they make sense to you, the more your
life will become simpler to move through.

"Let go of the need to know"
This applies during a PSH session and afterwards. It also applies
to the therapist too. The therapist doesn't need to know all the
details of your problem. Because what PSH Therapy is working
with, doesn't focus on the story or the content. It focuses on the
natural unfolding process. You knowing consciously has only a
recording and a historic value (for times such as writing this article)
after the event.

"The less you do, the more that happens"
Or more precisely, the less you do consciously, the more that is
freed up to happen subconsciously in your body. It's the letting
go that brings aliveness and vitality to life. Life wants to move in
healing ways; you have to learn to get out of its way from time to
time.

"Don't make it happen. Let it happen"
This phrase is similar to the previous one. Don't over plan or over
restrict your expression and movement. If you force, you restrict
the natural processes within you that give you that zest for life.
Think of people that feel alive and vibrant around you, they will
be people who are allowing more of their personal natural
subconscious mind to flow more than you are at that particular time.

                                            **

Seek therapies that allow the process to unfold in you, not the
content of your story.

Do not dwell too much on therapies that focus on content, the story
of your life and over analysing why things are the way they are. A
good therapist or friend allows you to be yourself, and allows you
the freedom to untangle, work things out for yourself in a safe
environment. Permanent, lasting healing arises when you discover
and unfold the outdated blockages yourself.

Don't get caught up in running your life and work in strict linear
surface-logic ways. (A conscious mind trait). Free yourself to
allow your subconscious to guide more of your actions without
having to know (that is, have an immediate logically answer) why
you are taking that action. Your body knows. It knows the bigger
picture much better than your conscious mind ever will. We call it
intuition - your gut feel. The logic isn't evident at the time of the
decision, it just feels right. That's it. Go with it. The big picture
will
pan out in time and your conscious mind will catch up and realise
how the pieces fit together down the track and why that 'gut feel'
decision you made ages ago was the right one in hindsight. This
doesn't mean you will always be right of course, that's part of the
learning process, in trusting yourself more and more.
Trusting and listening to the language of your feelings.
