Aafiyah Healing is a client and solution focussed therapy. Using a holistic approach, it helps you to identify and understand the core emotional causes of many physical and emotional ailments.

The therapeutic methodology of Aafiyah Healing encompasses techniques that may enable you to improve your physical and emotional well-being, empowering you to live a better life.

What happens in a session?

A client will contact us for a variety of reasons. The two main distinctions are physical pain and discomfort, or emotional overwhelm, which may include low mood, anxiety, depression, fear, phobias, grief and other disturbing childhood memories.
Each session begins with filling out an online intake questionnaire, so the practitioner can make an assessment if they are suited to working with that particular client or not.


Most clients will present physical symptoms to begin with, even if they know there might be deeper emotional issues that need addressing also. Practitioners will often start by realigning the body using energy work and focussed attention. The client is requested to stand during the realignment session that can take up to 30 minutes. The main focus here is to ensure that the hips, spine and shoulders are in the correct posture so that the main bodily organs are not constricted and compromised in any way. The realignment process will help to alleviate much of the physical pain.


At this point, the client may request that the session is concluded if the physical pain is no longer there.
In some cases, there may be some residual pain lingering after the realignment, so the practitioner will now focus their attention to that specific area to try and eliminate it completely in the remaining time of the session.
The realignment can be done in person or via a video call. Both are equally as effective. Practitioners will not make physical contact with non-Mahrams.

 

 

Working With Emotions

Most clients are unaware, or haven’t made the link up to this point that their physical pain is connected to their emotional baggage. Each physical symptom acts like a messenger to us and is directly linked to the emotions we are holding on to and the affect is felt on the corresponding organ of the body. For example: the Liver is connected to holding onto anger, the Kidneys are connected to fear, and the Lungs are connected to grief. Pain in and around the heart is connected to hurt and separation from loved ones.

In most cases where there are underlying emotions, following on from the realignment, the client will display certain signs such as feeling nauseous, or lightheaded, feel teary, or may want to sit down. These are key indicators that the body is now ready to release the emotions that have come up to the surface.

The client is then asked to sit and relax and with some basic enquiry process along with visual diagnosis, the practitioner is able to help the client process and release the emotions.

The greatest challenge that clients have with their emotions is the sense of overwhelm and loss of control that they can bring about. This is because emotions carry a ‘charge’ depending on how vivid and raw the experience is in their mind.

The practitioners’ task at this point is to facilitate the processing of emotions (making the link of physical symptom to emotional root cause) and then releasing that emotion (so that the emotional charge from the memory is neutralized).

Note here, that memory cannot be erased! The therapy process allows for the client to be able to revisit their past mentally and no longer be triggered by it in the same way as they previously did.

 

What happens after a session

Don’t be fooled, healing takes time. There are no quick fixes. Ailments and diseases take a long time to manifest and so reversing the process can take some length of time also. With the support of your practitioner, as long as the client has a dedicated and disciplined mindset, massive shifts can occur over a short period of time.
Self-care is extremely important in the healing phase. The practitioner will give you some tasks to do after the session. This may include taking a salt bath, doing some grounding on a daily basis and even keeping a journal so you can note down any emotions, feelings and memories that may come up after the session. It is extremely important that the client completes the prescribed tasks so that there is progress and continuity into the next session. It is extremely important to keep the momentum up whilst the healing is taking place.

Note here, that memory cannot be erased! The therapy process allows for the client to be able to revisit their past mentally and no longer be triggered by it in the same way as they previously did.

 You can communicate with your practitioner after the session, to give any updates or ask for advice.
It is recommended that you commit yourself to a minimum of three sessions with your practitioner to experience lasting changes.
We understand that the therapeutic process is not easy and straightforward, so sometimes clients may experience a relapse in their condition or experience a healing crisis and that is totally fine and acceptable. This is not a reason to cancel upcoming appointments or simply give up on your healing journey. Remember to always update the practitioner fully and honestly so that they can assist better by taking your situation into consideration.

Why we are Different?

This form of healing is different than a lot of therapies, as it doesn’t give importance to the story, but rather the emotions behind it.  This is especially effective in helping people who have suffered severe abuse and cannot or do not wish to speak about it. Aafiyah Healing also uses widely known natural pain relief and other stress calming techniques to create a safe space in which the client can be facilitated through their own healing process. The focus of the sessions is to assist the client experience a positive shift and develop hope that healing is truly possible.

Is Aafiyah Healing proven from Quran and Sunnah?

Aafiyah Healing is not an Islamic therapy that can be found directly from the Quran and Sunnah. Aafiyah Healing is simply a name given to a therapy model and does not interfere in any Islamic rulings or practices.

Aafiyah Healing is made up of a combination of techniques and therapies that can be empirically proven through science, to help clients get out of the condition they are stuck in. Aafiyah Healing is a modality that takes a holistic approach to wellbeing from an Islamic perspective and is grounded in the teachings from the Sunnah.

Spirituality is not about the guide,
just as healing is not about the therapist.
It is all down to YOU!
