The formula to lose weight seems simple enough; consume fewer calories than you burn. Yet despite the countless diets, surgeries and food substitutes on the market, maintaining a healthy weight remains an elusive dream for most.
Enter a different way to focus on weight loss. Instead of counting calories, carbohydrates or points, clients of Destination Empowerment, Inc. can lose weight by “releasing patterns of consciousness,” according to Marbeth Dunn, a Life Empowerment Coach based in Miami.
“Very often weight is protective such as when people subconsciously stay overweight as a means to avoid intimacy or rejection,” said Ms. Dunn, M. Ed and certified practitioner of Matrix Energetics, Meridian Tapping Technique, Reiki and other energy shifting modalities.
For a fee of $15 per session, clients can register for a group workshop where they will learn and receive techniques to “cleanse themselves of energetic congestion,” said Ms. Dunn.
Called The Weight Escape Program, Ms. Dunn says she relies on her experience as an empath and spiritual coach among other things, to shift the unhealthy consciousness patterns that prevent healthy eating. Some modalities are relatively well known in the alternative-healing world, such as her Meridian tapping technique, which is closely aligned with the popularly known Emotional Freedom Technique, (EFT) by Gary Craig.
The Matrix Energetics System as described in the award-winning book by Dr. Richard Bartlett, is a system of healing based on intention and changes in the flow of subtle physical energy. In fact, it is Ms. Dunn’s preference to use consciousness energy shifting techniques, such as Matrix because it’s quick.
“I don’t like to string people along unnecessarily. I don’t have a pat formula that works with everyone, rather I work intuitively and adapt my approach to whatever I feel is best for my client,” she said.
Although hardly mainstream, this consciousness shifting approach for dieting may gain acceptance as more people explore alternative medical techniques. In l997, Americans made 627 billion visits to practitioners of alternative medicine and spent $27 billion of their own money to pay for alternative therapies, according to an article reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association, November, 1998 issue. In Florida, where the Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported that in l997, nearly 1 in 5 people was obese, it is unknown how alternative healing practices will help the obesity epidemic.
