Q: What are the goals of Radix work?

A: Radix work awakens persons to a vital and authentic experience of life. As the work progresses, not only do persons resolve their presenting issues, but also they begin to experience themselves becoming more fully alive, more fully themselves. Although Radix work is applied differently to persons with different needs and different problems, certain themes tend to underlie the work. They include:

Developing mind/body integration, reducing dissociation, enhancing the experience of being fully alive.
Grounding you in your body and your experience of life, enabling greater competence in your dealing with life's daily issues.
Centering you in your experience of your own body, feelings, and thoughts, enabling your experience of your own authentic self.
Creating boundaries that define you to yourself, your relationships, and the world.
Containing feelings that might overwhelm you, until they can be expressed at an appropriate time in an appropriate manner.
Restoring the flow of your life force, enhancing its pulsation, your aliveness, and expressiveness
Enhancing your capacity to increase and contain your biophysical energy, thereby enhancing your capacity for pleasure.
Discharging long-held feelings of anger, fear, pain, and longing thus allowing thereby for the enhanced capacity for feelings of love, trust, pleasure, and fulfillment.
Increasing your capacity for interpersonal contact, thus allowing for greater emotional and sexual intimacy.
Discovering and expressing your authentic self, resulting in enhanced autonomy & self-direction.
