Q: I'm
overwhelmed by my feelings. How can Radix help me?
A: While some persons need to develop their capacity to feel
their feelings, other persons are all to familiar with their feelings;
they are swamped and flooded by chaotic feelings that sometimes
are overwhelming and seemingly unmanageable. For these persons,
the direction of Radix work is towards strengthening the sense of
self, defining and strengthening boundaries, learning to contain
feelings, enhancing body/mind integration, and developing a greater
sense of being grounded. Sensitivity to this very common problem
is one of the features of Radix work that distinguishes it from
other neo-Reichian practices.
Q: Conventional
therapy hasn't worked well for me. Could Radix work better?
A: Radix work has a lot in common with conventional therapy
so it could be that Radix wouldn't work any better for you. However
Radix work has some major differences from conventional therapy
that could mean it would work better for you. Some of these differences
are: 1. Radix work pays a lot more attention to integration of what's
going on in your body with what's going on in your mind 2. Radix
works directly with physical blocks to thinking and feeling and
3. Radix work teaches how to feel and express feelings more directly
than purely verbal work.
Radix work
typically includes verbal work, but adds the dimension of physical
work too. It gives the therapist/Radix practitioner additional ways
to work with you and so there is more likelihood that whatever is
preventing you from getting what you want out of therapy will be
addressed.
