The Becoming Method™ and the trauma recovery training process is phenomenally comprehensive and makes clear the mind body connection.​ I have experienced meaningful therapy sessions and a multitude of forgiveness processes during my life’s journey, but as I moved through the first semester, I found identifying specific moments in time when I experienced traumatic events and releasing the energy associated with those moments beyond powerful! The healing has resulted in a heightened and consistent steadiness and peacefulness. I find myself catching and releasing current “upsets” faster and with greater ease. The healing includes moving slower and allowing life to surprise me rather than planning my own “surprise party.

There’s so Much More to Know in Our Student Handbook

The Becoming Method™ is our patented psychotherapeutic technique that allows individuals, families, and communities to radically eliminates suffering and heal trauma.

The Becoming Method™ represents a culmination of decades of exploration into trauma recovery and is built on the pioneering work of thought leaders like John Diamond, David Hawkins, and Kandace Blakely.

Diamond’s work asks each of us to contemplate a question: “How does trauma influence the energetic field and, in turn, the meridians connected to the 12 major organs of the body?” Diamond understood that traumatic responses are not just an emotional or psychological experience but also a physical one, manifesting as disruptions within the body’s energy systems.

Building on Diamond’s work, Kandace Blakely focused on the beliefs and narratives that emerge from trauma. Her work asks us to contemplate the question: “What decisions were made during and after the traumatic moment?” This perspective encouraged a deeper look at how decisions made during moments of intense emotionality shape our perceptions, influence relationships, and define our interactions with the world.

Dr. David Hawkins added another layer to this field of study by exploring the connection between trauma and consciousness. Hawkin’s work asks us to contemplate this question: “What level of consciousness did the traumatic moment anchor you in?” He understood that consciousness goes beyond mere awareness; it encompasses the vibrational frequency at which an individual operates. He developed the Map of Consciousness, a scale that calibrates levels of consciousness from 1 to 1,000. The lower levels, below 200, are associated with survival-oriented emotions that weaken the individual, while levels above 200 are considered empowering and associated with truth, positivity, and constructive human behaviour. The higher the level, the more aligned the individual is with universal truths and spiritual realities.

In the field of psychotherapy, “the loop” refers to a cycle of repetition where individuals re-experience a traumatic moment with different people, across different times, and in various places. Initially, it seemed that resolving the specific trauma at the heart of the loop would release someone from its grip. However, research and clinical observations revealed that, in some cases, even after addressing the initial trauma, the loop continued. This insight led to deeper exploration and eventually a new understanding: the loop is not simply about the traumatic event or our traumatic response, but about a universal principle that was violated before, during, or after the trauma. The loop ends when and if the principle violation is acknowledge and corrected.

Who can benefit from the Becoming Method?

The Becoming Method™ is beneficial for anyone struggling with the effects of trauma, including professionals seeking to enhance their therapeutic skills and individuals looking to overcome personal challenges. It is especially useful for psychotherapists, counsellors, social workers, nurses, and even life coaches who wish to expand their understanding and capability in treating trauma effectively.

What can I expect from a Becoming Method session?

In a Becoming Method session, you can expect a supportive and safe environment where various techniques are employed to address trauma. Sessions may involve deep emotional work, assessment that incorporate David Hawkins work on levels of consciousness, and exercises to reframe negative thoughts and false beliefs, and a powerful Truth, Forgiveness and Reconciliation process. Each session is tailored to the individual’s needs, with a focus on moving beyond trauma to fostering a state of empowerment and self-discovery.
