Bodily Intrusion Healing

A bodily intrusion is when you experience a breach, either physical harm through accident and assault, or surgical treatment. The Intrusion does not need to be unexpected to affect you.

• Have you experienced a bodily intrusion?
• Are you experiencing a delayed healing response physically?
• Or are you struggling with recovery emotionally, mentally or energetically?

The information below is here to offer an explanation as to why you may be experiencing a delay in healing, whatever capacity that may be in. These things do not have to become a long term problem, read on to discover how.

What is a bodily intrusion?

There are many ways that our bodies can experience bodily intrusion; physical harm, assault, accidents, illness or iatrogenesis, and we are prepared to protect ourselves from this intrusion. Our skin is designed to repel physical intrusion. Our energy field warns us of incoming intention. Our immune response is designed to attack and neutralise bacterial and viral invasion. If under imminent threat we will get a rush of adrenaline to help us flee or fight.

All these methods are designed to protect us. Sometimes, despite our bodies defences, it isn’t enough and we experience harm. Accidents, and assault can have a profound effect upon us, not only are we physically harmed, but psychologically, emotionally and energetically too. This can all compound into an unresolved trauma.

Iatrogenesis or Iatrogenic harm describes the harm a person experiences as a result of medical treatment, just because there was no intention to cause harm by whomever delivered the treatment doesn’t mean that harm isn’t experienced. Often harm to some degree is expected, for example if you are going to undergo surgery there will be an incision and the wound will need to heal – a physical breach of the body was made and it ought to be expected that the body needs time to heal. Energetically (the energy bodies) need time to heal too and this can take longer than we expect, especially if healing is not considered from all required angles.

Healing takes time.

We often expect healing physically to take some time and we have more awareness now of the need to heal emotionally, but we do not put enough consideration into the energetic bodies healing processes. If (all) your bodies were not adequately prepared and expecting the intrusion this can compound with the trauma, so if you consider all these aspects required for healing, it is understandable that it can take longer and require more effort than anticipated.

The scale or severity of the injury or treatment does not automatically correlate to the scale of trauma received. The trauma caused to your whole being is what denotes the impact, normally worsened by not feeling in control of what is happening to you.

For example, an open abdominal surgery gave me far less trauma to resolve than an impacted wisdom tooth. I was prepared and in control of my Caesarean section, I had discussed the entire procedure with my selves and my bodies (physical and energetic) were prepared for what happened, I trusted the obstetrician and watched as my son was gently lifted from my womb, it was a beautiful healing experience. However, having an infected impacted wisdom tooth removed, (should have been a simple and lower impact procedure) was actually the most traumatic, disruptive and problematic single experience (for me) of this life.

Illuminating Exercise For Bodily Intrusion

Like always plan for a time when you will be undisturbed, do some simple breath work exercises and a grounding.

• Place your palm over Anahata (heart chakra).
• Ask your body if you can communicate with it.
• Ask if it feels recovered from the incident (whatever your bodily intrusion was).
• Ask what is needed to fully recover
• Ask if your energetic body is healed from the breach
• Ask what is needed to recover fully.
• Tell your bodies how much you appreciate them, how much you love them, how much you want to heal.

Trust whatever comes through, you might get a ‘sense’, you may get a physical sensation, if your Clares are activated you may well get clear answers. You may well experience the answers during your dream, if so record the message or dream immediately upon waking. Even if you don’t feel like you received any information, speaking to your body in this way will activate a healing process to commence, and might well encourage communication from your body. Please see ‘Your Shadow Journey – Where To Start‘ for more on facilitating communication within yourself.

How do you know you have an unresolved trauma from a bodily intrusion and external harm? Its honestly one of the easiest to discern because there will be a ‘before’ and an ‘after’ the experience, and if there is a noticeable difference that is causing challenges then there is an unresolved trauma. If your anticipated healing time (physically, emotionally, and energetically) has passed and there is a noticeable change then a session to evaluate what requires resolution will be beneficial. The most important factor is in recognising the impact that this trauma has had upon you, do not allow anyone, especially yourself, to minimise and invalidate your truth. If you are struggling with a bodily intrusion act to heal it now, rather than allowing it to stagnate your growth, impact your vibration and cause dissonance within you. Most bodily intrusions require just a few sessions to see dramatic improvement, if they are acted upon promptly.
