Integrated Energy Therapy® (IET), developed at the Center of Being by Stevan J. Thayer, is a healing method that focuses on personal empowerment by identifying and clearing suppressed feelings and cellular memories in the human energy field. The experiences we have in life can remain with us on a physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual level. Each time we have experiences that impact us negatively, they are stored on one of those levels in an imprint that blocks energy. Like multiple transparencies placed on an overhead projector, these experiences begin to block out light or energy. This can lead to energy depletion, a sense that things are just not right, or a feeling of unrest or agitation. You feel out of balance somehow. IET helps you release these negative blockages permanently. Each session will reduce the layers of imprinted experiences life removing the layers of an onion. This will clear energy patterns and allow you to free yourself of limitations.
