Post-Session Care Guide

During your session, the energy connected to your imbalances has been released and realigned according to your body’s priorities, including updates to your belief systems where requested. Beliefs form in several ways - through personal experience, suggestions we accepted as true, or inherited patterns - and not all of them will make sense to your conscious mind.

Your subconscious sets the priority for what is addressed, focusing on the core issue(s) - those that overlap with others, like the center of a Venn diagram. Even if you brought a long list of topics, your body does not need to address each individually. It works with associations, naturally highlighting key areas. Focusing on these core areas often supports all related topics without decoding each one separately, which helps sensitive clients avoid overwhelm.

It’s normal if something that surfaced feels confusing, unexpected, or unrelated. Your subconscious organizes vast amounts of information by association, and some connections may not be immediately clear to your conscious mind. What appears in a session is simply what is incongruent and ready to be released. Even if you don’t understand the “why,” trust that anything surfacing is no longer supportive.

The release from your session is permanent, though new layers may emerge over time as your system continues to adjust. You may notice subtle sensations, emotional shifts, or changes in how you respond to situations - sometimes immediately, sometimes gradually. These shifts are part of the natural rebalancing process.

Your body will be procession for 1-3 days, which is shown in your session notes. During this time:

• Stay hydrated with filtered water.

• Follow what feels nourishing and supportive for your body.

Review your session notes; any items requiring your attention are highlighted in yellow. Always trust your instincts and if it doesn’t feel aligned for you do not act on it.

Some people experience profound change from a single session, while others return for additional sessions as new areas surface or to continue supporting alignment.

Trust your timing and your experience. When you’re ready, book another session at www.birchcove.co.

Statements or feelings that arise during a session may feel intense, confusing, or surprising. It’s important to remember:

• These statements are not literal reflections of behavior, but symbolic expressions of subconscious beliefs, such as feelings of shame, fear, unworthiness, or self-judgment.

• Beliefs are figurative, not literal, representing patterns absorbed from early experiences, suggestions accepted as true, or inherited tendencies.

• Your subconscious organizes vast sensory information by association, forming a network of patterns that may seem unclear to your conscious mind.

Visualizing Layers as a Tree:

• Negative programs → branches and leaves influencing daily thoughts, behaviors, and actions

• Limiting beliefs → trunk

• Faulty core beliefs → roots anchoring deep patterns

• Faulty core identity (formed ages 0–7) → soil

Even if some statements or feelings don’t make logical sense, they are ready to be released according to your body’s subconscious. Releasing these beliefs is a safe and supportive process for the body.

If your body asked for the belief code, when an old belief system is cleared, your body doesn’t leave empty space - it asks, “How should I fill these gaps?”

Think of your subconscious as having access to a vast library of life experiences and it creates associations with all those experiences. After a belief system is cleared, your subconscious decides how to update the “shelves”:

• Defragmenting the shelves: Push remaining “books” together so there are no gaps, creating a stable, integrated system.

• Adding new empowering books: Introduce new, supportive beliefs to replace what was cleared, so future references are aligned with empowerment and wellbeing.

During the session, your body decides which approach is needed—sometimes defragmenting, sometimes adding new beliefs, or a combination. Trust that your system knows exactly how to fill the space to best support you. A belief system update is a deep change for your body, it’s like an operating system update, vs a software update. It is very profound for your body.

Integration is your body and subconscious fully absorbing the changes from the session. This can happen instantly or gradually. You may notice:

• Subtle physical sensations in the body

• Emotional shifts

• Changes in responses to situations or adjustments in your perception

Sometimes, your body’s natural processing period may intensify, creating stronger physical or emotional sensations. This is a normal part of your system adjusting and reorganizing. Other times, shifts are gentle and subtle—both are valid and expected.

Supporting yourself during this phase:

• Trust your body’s wisdom - what is occurring is part of its natural process.

• Be gentle and patient with yourself. Moments of intensity or subtle change are both meaningful.

• Remind yourself that your body is recalibrating, integrating, and reorganizing safely.

• Celebrate small shifts and acknowledge the work your system is doing.

Your unique integration journey:

• Everyone’s experience is unique and personal. There is no fast track—your body knows its own timing and is always seeking balance.

• Energy both reflects and affects physiology, meaning shifts in your energy system naturally influence your body, emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.

• Changes may appear quickly for some, subtly for others, and in layers over time. Trust that your body is intelligent and always working in your favor.

Your session notes indicate if a dedicated integration period is expected. If none is listed, your body has integrated naturally. Trust the process - your system continues to process, rebalance, and adjust even after the session ends.

Every body is unique, so the timing and experience of shifts vary. Some changes are immediate, while others unfold gradually over hours, days, weeks, or months.

How you may notice changes:

• Physical sensations: Subtle shifts in tension, energy, or comfort in the body.

• Emotional release: Feeling lighter, calmer, or more open, or noticing emotions surface and resolve.

• Mental clarity: New insights, perspectives, or changes in thought patterns.

• Behavioral or relational shifts: Responses to situations may feel different, easier, or more aligned.

Timing of results:

• Immediate: Some clients notice shifts right after the session, including emotional or physical changes.

• Gradual: Other effects may develop over hours or days as your system continues to reorganize and integrate.

• Layered: A session can create ripple effects, naturally supporting related areas over time.

• Individual timing: Everyone’s system processes differently. Sensitivity, complexity of the issues, and your body’s readiness all influence how quickly and in what ways results appear.

Key reminder: There is no “wrong” way to experience results. Your body and subconscious determine the pace and form of integration, ensuring changes are safe, aligned, and lasting.

There is nothing to force or fix when it comes to emotions. Your body is wise and always working in your favor - even when it doesn’t feel like it is. Many emotions are processed subconsciously, often beyond conscious awareness. Your body holds a record of everything you’ve experienced in life.

• Trust the process: Emotions - including difficult ones - are natural and here to guide and support you. They are part of your intricate bio-GPS system.

• Acknowledge your body: Remind yourself, “Good job, body. Thank you for caring for me.” Let your body do what it knows best. Rest fully into being yourself.

• Timing matters: Even lifelong or inherited trapped emotions are held for a reason - your body’s wisdom guided you to the right moment for release.

Repeating Emotions:
When an emotion appears to repeat, it is not the same trapped emotion resurfacing. Each instance carries a distinct vibrational charge, formed by a unique life experience. Even if the same label is used, it reflects a different energetic imprint. The reference set of emotions acts as umbrella categories, often representing a broader range of related feelings:

• Example: “Shock” could also include disbelief, sudden fear, or emotional paralysis

• Example: “Grief” could include sorrow, heartbreak, or deep sadness
  The specific meaning is encoded in your body and is unique to you.

A heart-wall is your body’s natural way of caring for and protecting you. It creates gentle layers of emotional “bubble wrap” around the heart to help keep you safe. During a session, you can ask if you have a heart-wall and whether it’s ready to clear - if you feel called to explore that.

• Sometimes a heart-wall clears in one session; other times, it may take multiple sessions.

• When your body is ready, it signals the time to release this heart-wall.

• During the process, it’s common to feel openness or vulnerability, often followed by a deeper connection with yourself and others.

• Clearing the heart-wall supports heart-brain coherence, promoting emotional balance and overall wellbeing.

• As life unfolds, new heart-walls may form in response to new experiences—this is a natural, protective part of your ongoing journey.

Trust your timing and your experience.

Even though sessions are fully remote, your body’s energy system responds in measurable ways. Here’s how it works:

1. The Body as an Energy System:

   • Your body constantly generates and responds to electromagnetic fields. Every cell communicates through bioelectric signals. This energy network allows your system to detect shifts, imbalances, or areas needing support.

   • Remote energy work interacts with these fields - not by moving your physical body, but by influencing the energy patterns your body is already constantly monitoring and adjusting.

2. Subconscious Intelligence:

   • Your subconscious functions like a sophisticated information-processing system, constantly organizing data and creating associations from life experiences, beliefs, and emotions.

   • During a session, the practitioner sets intention and follows the guidance of your subconscious. Your body determines what needs attention, release, or recalibration, much like an internal “biofeedback loop.”

3. Non-Locality and Information Fields:

   • Research in quantum biology and energy medicine suggests that energy and information are not strictly localized. The body can respond to intentional energy guidance at a distance.

   • Your system perceives these subtle energetic cues and makes the necessary adjustments, whether that’s releasing emotional blocks, updating beliefs, or rebalancing energy patterns.

4. Integration:

   • Your nervous system, endocrine system, and body tissues adjust in response to the shifts. Even if you can’t consciously “feel” the changes immediately, your body continues to reorganize, integrate, and stabilize the new energy patterns over hours or days.

Safety and Accessibility:

• Remote energy work is a gentle, safe, and supportive modality suitable for anyone - including adults, children, older adults, and even animals.

• It is suitable for any condition or experience. Your practitioner will guide about whether they specialize in a specific field.

• Your body decides what to release and how to respond, making this a highly personalized and non-invasive approach to energy, emotions, and beliefs.

In essence: Your body does the work. Remote energy sessions provide focused intention and guidance, while your subconscious and energy systems determine what needs to shift, release, or realign - safely and naturally.

In general, when the body and mind encounter challenges, stress, or significant life events, they often move through three natural stages of recovery. This framework is meant to help you understand how physical and emotional adjustments typically unfold - though everyone’s experience is unique.

1. Reaction Stage

• Physical: Fatigue, mild discomfort, tension, or other temporary sensations.

• Emotional: Shock, denial, anger, overwhelm, or emotional dissonance.

• Purpose: Your system is responding to the challenge and beginning to adjust.

2. Regeneration Stage

• Physical: The body actively repairs, reorganizes, and strengthens.

• Emotional: Processing emotions, taking constructive action, and embracing personal responsibility.

• Purpose: This stage supports integration of lessons and patterns from the experience.

3. Remodeling Stage

• Physical: Functionality and resilience improve, sometimes beyond previous levels.

• Emotional: Increased learning, acceptance, empathy, and emotional intelligence.

• Purpose: This stage reflects long-term adaptation, balance, and growth.

Note: These stages are general patterns and may vary widely. This is not prescriptive. Some stages may overlap, repeat, or appear subtly. Everyone’s journey is unique, and your system adjusts at its own pace.

Your session is safe, private, and guided by your body’s intelligence. A certified practitioner:

• Does not put their energy into you and does not take energy from you.

• Respects ethical and moral boundaries at all times.

• Cannot access your secrets.

• Can only conduct a session with your consent.

During a session, the practitioner is a guide, following your subconscious’ priorities and supporting what your system is ready to release, update, or realign. You remain in control at all times - your body decides what is addressed, how it is addressed, and when it is ready.

This ensures that every session is safe, respectful, and supportive, giving you confidence and trust in the process.

You must always consult your licensed medical practitioner for your health needs. This work does not diagnose, prescribe, cure, or treat.
