SRI, or the 12 Stages of Healing, stands for Somato Respiratory Integration. SRI is a means of gaining the wisdom from your pain, tension, symptoms or dis-ease through the use of your own hands, breath, and movement.

It is an unparalleled tool for personal healing and empowerment.

The purpose of SRI is to help you heal more effectively through connecting with the rhythm of your appropriate stage of healing.

Each stage of the healing process has its own rhythm, and no one stage is ‘better’ than another. They are simply pieces of creating a greater whole, to more successfully allow you to heal.

We receive the gift of each stage when we can fully become AWARE of, ACKNOWLEDGE and ACCEPT (AAA) that stage.

The 12 Stages of Healing are made up of 4 Seasons of Well-Being

.

The first Season is the Season of Discover.

This Season is about discovering how you have run from pain and do everything you can to avoid it.
You become aware of, acknowledge and accept (AAA) how you are have been suffering, have parts of yourself that you have denied or disowned, and are stuck.

The second Season is the Season of Transform.

This Season is about harnessing your power, passion and courage so you can stop playing small and make the change that you are ready to make in your life to be more in alignment with the best version of yourself.
You say “Thank you, but I no longer need you!” to any thought, behavior, pattern or way of being that no longer serves you.
In this Season you experience progress and are powerfully able to create your life.

The third Season is the Season of Awaken.

This Season is about being.
It is about connecting with grace, gratitude, compassion and joy and having those be your baseline emotions. It is about knowing what your soul gifts are and more effortlessly being able to give them in service.
It is about experiencing magic and miracles in your daily experience and feeling connected to something bigger than yourself.

The fourth Season is the Season of Integration.

This Season is about you being able to weave the first 3 Season so that you can first become aware of, acknowledge and accept (AAA) where you are at and then choose to bring in the energy of the Season that you need more of.
This is where the magic happens!

The 12 Stages of Healing exercises may be integrated into a Network Spinal Entrainment in the office, and they will also be taught to you so you can do them at home to keep momentum going while not in the office.

They will assist you in the progression through the NSA Levels of Care. The exercises are easy for anyone of any age and may be comfortably performed just about anywhere.

It is a dynamic system to truly allow more effective integration of your body/mind.

SRI was developed by Dr. Donald Epstein, and is based on the 12 Stages of Healing described in “The 12 Stages of Healing: A Network Approach to Wholeness”, written by Dr. Epstein, which is available at Soulwave Chiropractic Studio.
