Carol:
Hello! I am Carol Tuttle and I do these
monthly programs with Syl, who will be joining us
during the second half and doing the Thai yoga, and
we found this to be a great combination. Weve kind
of laughed between ourselves; weve said, Well,
even if nobody else will benefit we certainly are.
She and I are having a fabulous experience opening
up these energy centers and seeing what shows up
every month as were doing this, cause certainly Im
experiencing it personally in my own life - the
dynamics of working with each of these very
intentionally.
How many of you are here for the first time tonight, if youd
raise your hand? Alright, thats a fairly significant number in
that I dont know if you just found out about it or youve come
here with someone thats been coming, but I want to just
give you a general idea of what these are about.
I am an energy therapist; I work in the field of psychology
which means I work with peoples energy energy of
thought, energy of emotion, masculine energy, feminine
energy, childhood energy theres just a lot of energy
dynamics going on for every human.
And then theres an energy system. And that system is
designed of meridians, which are pathways, energy
pathways; auric field; your Celtic Weave; your basic grid and
another one is the Chakras, which are energy centers that
run up the front and back of the torso and face and head.
And theres seven of them that are the most dominant in our
experience. And of any energy system that we operate in,
theyre probably the most influential on how your lifes
flowing whats showing up, how its showing up
influencing whats manifesting as that energy is vibrated out
and offered, it magnetically draws to you your experience to
these energy centers and work with them consciously, you
become a director and a very conscious operator of your life.

Carol:
I seem to be right?
Well, I just know what he wants
ultimately is to have some influence. But then what gets in
the way is the need to just be able to say it, he gets it and
with our other son, whos 16, if you just kind of dictate it to
him, he pushes, the walls go up.
If you know how to verbally and energetically come around
and meet him where hes at, hell come right with you. And
thats a result of being very prayerful and really
understanding how my children flow in this life and what are
their defenses that they tend to engage very quickly and
what do I do that triggers them.
What do I want? I want to be a parent that is heard and is a
guide and that has an influence, so Im willing to do the
tricks, work with it and get them to connect with them. And
so far, its worked pretty good because all of our children that
are out of high school
we have three of our five out of high school are doing very,
very well.
Im really impressed with the level of
consciousness they choose to live in and that kind of
accountability they operate in their lives for such young
adults, and they do.
A parent that knows us that has challenges with their
children might say occasionally, Well, you just have really
good children, and I think everybody has really good
children. John and I have done our homework. And we
have.

through the pain and struggle with the design that were
going to come out on the other side in a much better place.
GIVE NO TIME TO STRUGGLE, ONLY CHANGE
There are some things Ive done that I still kind of cringe and
go, That was so sick, you know, just not healthy. And for
the most part I just hold it in that spiritual perspective of
youve got to see the bigger picture here and its, even if your
child is still playing out the residual effects of what you
helped influence due to your, whatever, stuff when you were
raising them, theres an eternal timeline to address this, you
know, and Gods not going to sell any of us short due to the
fact were dealing with generational stuff.
And God continually puts in peoples path the chance to
notice it, big time. Really big time. I see so many people
getting hit with life challenges that are so you just cant
ignore them. The whole point of them is turn to God and get
some real answers here, not just try and get rid of the
disease. Whats creating this?
Wheres this coming from? Theres something bigger driving
it. Dont just treat the symptom, you know. And people are
being given lots of really potent life situations in which to
start wanting to know more, cause the answers they have
arent, you know, for me they werent satisfactory going to
talk therapy and just doing what Id been told to do and
things should be better and they didnt get better.
How is that healing when you cant even speak to your
parents or siblings for five years? Cause you went to talk
therapy and you created the story then made it difficult to
even have contact with these people.
I have to have boundaries. Ill separate myself. Thats
healing. Thats not healing, thats creating a whole other
level of stuff to heal. So Im grateful for these tools that we
have now cause when you clear your emotional baggage,
you can change the way you see something.
And thats important to understand. The only thing thats
keeping you stuck in your perception, thats limiting you
Page 14
Page 15
the pain. And the Heavenly Father told me, we just need
one person to play all the parts so the energy can be moved.
Youre a one-woman show, Carol. I said, okay, Ill do it all I
guess cause no ones willing to take this on.
Everyone wanted to be the victim; were all fighting to be the
victim, you know? You hurt me. No, you hurt me. No
one is
willing to be the bad guy and say, Okay, thatll be my part.
No one can move that energy. So Heavenly Father gave me
the clarity, the discernment to know what I was doing.
And it didnt matter if I was right. But somebody had to move
it into forgiveness. That was huge to be able to have that
kind of awareness and realize, oh, were all competing for
the victim. No ones going to move out of victim energy if
thatsWere all stuck there.
YOUR HEART CENTER MUST LIVE FREE OF HURT
And thats heart stuff. If youre experiencing any aspect of
being a victim in your life, thats cause your heart center
carries hurt and you want it validated. Its, like, youll hang
on to that, people die with that kind of wounded heart stuff,
waiting for the person that hurt them to show up and say,
Ive hurt you. Theyll finally go, Okay, good, now I can heal
it.
Its not gonna happen. Its just, why waste your life? Theyre
waiting for someone to show up and tell them. You can get it
taken care of through yourself and God. Its real easy. So
lets go ahead and do some of that. Any other questions?
RAPID EYE TECHNOLOGY FOR CHILDREN
Audience Member: Can you have a RET treatment done on a child thats having
difficulties when he doesnt seem to want it? You have to be
willing to be there to help them.

That and that he just has different energy than I do and I feel
like Im being his mother when I dont want to be his mother.
And I think he wants me to be his mother. You know, Ive
gone through the whole gamut of all those different things
and I just want to clear it.
Page 18
Carol:
Page 19
Can actually hurt me. Actually I feel like Im not being fair to
him because I am much more judgment of him than he is of
me and thats something I dont want to be. I guess the thing
that I dont know really what it is that hurts me or I
guess I feel burdened being around him.
Carol:
Barbara:
Im in charge type thing and I dont want to be. And yet hes
very capable. I was telling your husband we listen to your
CD, you know, Jackie Singleton, our mutual friend, she gave
me that CD and we both listened to it. We had the biggest
fight weve ever had because what you were saying about
your husband was the same stuff that
Carol:
Barbara:
I dont know which one it was. But you were talking about
your relationship with your husband and how he had a
certain job that you always were over and you werent sure
he could provide for you and all that stuff and then youve
come to that acceptance.
And thats a big thing too with us - that I feel like I have to be
in charge of retirement because he has a regular job that
isnt going to pay much for retirement. Things like that that I
dont need to be worrying about, but I do.
Carol:
Page 20
Carol:
Thats a gift.
Barbara:
Page 21
Carol:
Yes, but thats cause youre both holding back. You both
have to step into who you are and just let it shine and not
Youre both holding back because you think youre going to
get hurt. And all youre doing is hurting each other by
holding back. Im just trying to think how Id want to work
with this. Its a hard issue. Did you have a dominant father?
Barbara:
Carol:
Well, there you go. You picked a guy that could be absent
for you.
Barbara:
Carol:
But there is a dynamic in that thats like, its safe for you to
be in a relationship if the males kind of invisible. But then
you get angry. You know, then youre scared for him to really
show up cause you dont know
Barbara:
Carol:
Barbara:
Carol:
Barbara:
More craziness.
Carol:
Yeah, hes driving you crazy. Youre letting his gifts become
your triggers. Rather than just saying, you know what, I
gotta see where this is a gift in my life rather than an
annoyance. Cause its a great blessing, it really is. Cause
you need someone thats going to keep you more even keel.
Page 22
So even though you know that and you see that, do you
sometimes kind of expect it a little bit?
Carol:

Carol:
Alright, but youre, you know, youve got a nice outfit and
your car, I see is in the parking lot, you know. Youre
breathing. So I always go to the worst thing and say, you
know, what am I so afraid of here that Im getting so bent out
of shape? What is the big deal? So what if it never
changed?
Barbara:
Carol:

All:

Oh, you probably do. Its just practicing it. Okay, now say, I

I forgive him.

I forgive myself
For still believing
I havent made any progress with this
Page 26
Barbara:
Yeah.
Carol:
Thats where you want to use it though. And its in your dayto-day experience, even if its in your head. To say, you
know, when you get triggered by that loved one, its Im okay,
it doesnt matter. Youve gotta get to the illusion we bought
into that all that has to change for us to have joy.
And that is we vibrate in response to I cant stand this, drives
me crazy. You hold the pattern in place. It cant change, so
thats when you hit it right in the moment, with these little
simple techniques. When Im up here I feel like Im an
evangelist, you know like, Be healed or something. It feels
weird to me, I dont do that. But this will help you if you
apply it.

Okay.

Your parent identity and your voice, that Im worth being able
to ask for something more in my life and take a stand and,
you know, be inspired now in my life to do what God directs
me to do in this situation, because thats really between you
and God, how youre to move forward in this.
Cause you have to have that connection more with your core
and your worth to be able to do that effectively. Otherwise,
youll just keep getting what youre getting. So that was
great. Thanks for being vulnerable for everybody.
Why dont you both share with me. Im going to work with
you both kind of simultaneously. Whats your name?
Kerry:
Kerry.
Carol:

Its in here.
Carol:
Kerry:
I have. I just feel too much of other I feel like I just take on
what everybody else is feeling and tend to forget a little bit of
whats going on with me, I think. Im getting better with that,
but its just, I cant find the balance, I just cant find the
balance. Its either wide open or just go, Cant handle
anybodys stuff, I just gotta shut down.

Shutting down. I had this belief when I was a kid just going
through watching my parents going through divorce, that I
didnt ever want to get married, and if I did, I was just getting
married
once and that was it. So Im kind of bringing up all these
issues now. And I was an only child so I have this issue
feeling like Im going to be alone all my life and so
Carol:
Kerry:
Was.
Carol:
So youre divorced?
Kerry:
Um-hm.

The fourth Chakra is the heart. The word for this Chakra is
anahata, that is the Sanskrit word and the literal translation
means unstruck sound. Ill just begin with a little poem that
kind of speaks to this.
The soft touch of a bees wings against the skin,
A secret known to few, most often avoiding risk
Remains the center of longing, just this once, hold still
Watch as it softly lands to brush your surface.
Release the fear of a sting
Pain is a betrayal to those only who are caught off-guard.
And that kind of speaks to the heart. How do we keep it
open and yet still protect ourselves? One of the ways to do
this is through what weve talked about from the root.
Youve got your grounding and your physical beingness.
Page 32
And then we get to the heart. And the Heart Chakra Ive
done these paintings of the Chakras and the heart color is
shades of green; the way its depicted is in the center of the
Heart Chakra a Star of David and it is symbolic of this is the
intersection where all of the energies from the upward center
hit and cross all those energies that come up through the
lower center.
So youve got an upward triangle and a downward triangle,
intersecting and sort of interlacing the masculine, the
feminine issues of the body, the mind and the spirit.
So it also speaks to a symbolic sort of suggestion of
balance. This is where they meet, theyre equal in their size
and theyre just facing in the opposite directions moving up
and down.
I loved one of the things that Carol was talking about, about
the yang-feminine and the yin-masculine. When it comes to
the theistic philosophy, the Hindu theistic philosophy from
which the Chakras kind of arose, and definitely tantric
thought, tantric yoga thought, the feminine is yang; the
feminine is manifestation.
OUR HEART CHAKRAS HOUSE THE DUAL SPIRITS
OF CREATION AND DESTRUCTION
Shakti is the feminine principle of creation. And that is
making it happen, taking an idea like I would love to have a
child and actually making that happen. What Im talking
about is just the feminine side of that; Im not discounting the
masculine importance at all. But it actually comes down
through and manifests out.
The idea of a play you conceptualize an idea and that it
comes from the higher centers. At the highest center in the
crown resides Shiva, which is the masculine principle of
creation. And its consciousness without manifestation. And
some would refer to that as yin, or feminine, because its
quiet, its serene, its there, its existing.
And yet, youve got Shakti - shes fierce, shes anger, shes
creation. So really in our society, weve mixed those two up
Page 33
that the feminine is, you know, which it is, but so is the
masculine as well. But the masculine is consciousness
without creation. The feminine is wild, crazy, manifestation
without consciousness.
At the heart where they intersect, they both, oh, finally Im
whole. And this speaks to some of that aloneness. Am I
going to be alone? And just the word for the Anahata
Chakra translates to mean unstruck sound, which is really
the point of the Heart Chakra and what we live in. Its like, I
open my heart, but will anyone hear it, really, for what it is.
THE HEART CHAKRA IS A CENTER OF BALANCE
Will I be treasured for what I am? And this is where love is
kind of the Heart Chakra theme because when you are in
love or when you are in a loving relationship, that person is
mirroring back to you love that you have for yourself. And its
okay to say it and its okay to feel it because someone else is
sort of channeling that to you.
So how do you find a balance of being able to have that
loving acceptance of yourself? It really is set up in not only
just religion, organized or not, but just creation period, that
the man and the woman make divinity together.
And in kind of some of the Judeo-Christian philosophies, and
really even some of the eastern philosophies, we all come
from a broken home.
We have this father in most Christian or Judeo philosophies;
we have this distant father who is wrathful. And yet theres
no mother, theres no mention of any daughters.
Theres mention of the son, but he didnt even get a stickaround. This is out there in consciousness. And to be able
to weave yourself through that to come to a place where you
really understand the connection of divinity through your own
self-acceptance, is where that makes it all okay.
And the sound here go ahead and take your hand. Theres
a heart acupressure point and the Heart Chakra is, if it were
to be located somewhere, would be just straight in from the
Page 34
Page 35
go? The gal that was up here. Yeah, both of you. There
you go. Kerrys, right? Okay.
To really connect with that, make something happen, strike a
sound in that area of your body and feel that theres
something there and Im acknowledging you and Im out
here and you dont have to close down. And you can do that
a lot, especially when youre going through difficult things
where youre dealing with your aloneness.
Rubbing it is also great. And also another little exercise to
do and Ill get into it in a minute is anahata pranayama
which is to find your heartbeat and you exhale down to a
four-count rhythm,
inhale up to a four-count rhythm, retain at the top for four
and exhale down for four.
CONNECTING TO YOUR HEART CHAKRA MEDITATION AND YOGA
So theres a couple of different things you can do to just
connect with this area of your body. I was teaching a yoga
class a few weeks ago and its an acupressure yoga series,
so Im teaching these points on the body within the context
of yoga.
And I said to the group Just start at your jugular notch and
dont touch your skin, but just really connect through whats
going on with your fingers and just lower it without even
touching and see if you can recognize when you get to the
heart point.
And it was real clear when I got to my heart point. It was just
a little bzzzz; kind of a little electrical, spiritual thing going on
there.
Okay, for anahata the unstruck sound do I open my heart
if theres no one here to hear, if no one will hear that sound?
It is about potential the potential for self-acceptance and
self-love.
The area, obviously shades of green, the area is the arms
so go ahead and take your arms out and just really open up
Page 36
You
Page 37
Page 38
Page 39
Page 40
was pulling the turkey out of my oven and I burned the side
of my hand on the inside of my oven. And I went and I just
put lavender on it and covered it with a Band-Aid and the
next morning there was no blister, you wouldnt even know I
had been touched.
And normally with me, I bruise easily, it takes a long time for
cuts to heal, Ill use lavender on that. So theres plenty back
there if you want some. I ordered extra to have here tonight.
YOUR HEART CHAKRA AND RELATIONSHIPS
Love and balance we talked about that - equilibrium and
healing is what takes place here. When you share from your
heart, which kind of is within the relationship genre, and it
fails, you have a sense of failing from the purest part of you
because when you share from the heart, it comes from the
purest form of your existence.
And when that doesnt kind of work into something and
blossom and flower, then theres this misconception that it
diminishes the value of the purity of what your emotions
were. And dealing with that with issues of the heart is
incredibly healing when you can make those sort of
connections.
HISTORY AND STRUCTURE OF THE CHAKRAS
Also the triangles kind of symbolize an integration of your
body and your spirit at the heart. Really interesting and
pretty much any scriptural genre you look in, whether its the
Talmud or the Vedic text or the King James Bible, you find
references to kind of something that could be considered a
Chakra.
And in the Christian tradition, in Revelations - and this is in
the booklet there it says something along the lines of and I
turned to see a voice that spoke with me and I heard a voice
as though it were the sound of a great trumpet.
And when he turns around he sees seven golden some
Bibles say lanterns, some Bibles say candlesticks and out

Lets bring this mat up. Is this okay with you? You dont
mind me walking on your body? The Thai yoga therapy is
basically, its Chakra related. You can come up and just lay
down on the mat. No, youre okay. Shoes off, maybe. And
just feet down here.
The main idea here is its a 2-hour process and I start at the
feet and go all the way up to the crown of the head and we
basically open up all the energy lines through the body. And
these energy lines run along the lines of the fascia, the
muscles, the lymphatic flow and all of this.
How many in here have I worked on. 1, 2, 3, 4? Four of you.
Okay. So this is like a meditation for both the giver and the
receiver, alright. It typically begins with a prayer or sort of
invocation. And you start just by, with the hands on the feet,
to just pull on the feet.
Take a deep breath in and as youre laying down in bed at
night, just bring your awareness to whats going on with your
body. Are you really releasing the weight of your body and
allowing yourself to be supported by the bed or the floor?
Im giving a yoga basics workshop, there are flyers for it
most of you have, that will be in July. And Id recommend
that you come to it. It will work for any body type, any
experience with yoga. But we talk a lot about that.
The other thing most people do is lay like this, but go ahead
and turn your palms up. That will open up the shoulders and
the heart. So to work with the Thai yoga therapy, you just
start with sort of pulling the legs and then pressure up the
legs. And Im just going to do just a brief little bit because I
want to really get to the heart.
Im just kind of warming up your legs a little bit. And then
with the body, most oftentimes you can lay the palms of your
hands up and still have the heart closed. So with Thai yoga,
and Im jumping the gun here by about an hour into the
massage. But with Thai yoga Im just going to reach right
underneath you.
Page 48
See what happened there with her heart? Its something that
you can do at home if you have a partner whos willing to do
it for you. Just take the heel of your hand and the heel of the
shoulder take a
deep breath in and always press in on the exhalation. So
just little, small things to open the heart. Is that okay?
Hows that? Great.
And then go ahead and lay on your tummy. And I happen to
know that Kerry is a yogi so I feel comfortable to do this. Are
you comfortable enough to have me climb on to you? So
Thai yoga therapy is probably one of the best healers for the
heart, because its just a compassionate experience.
Its a little different from regular body work. Its considered a
meditation for both the giver and the receiver. Im just gonna
basically climb up on you. Im just gonna put my knees right
here. Okay? And this is probably not one youd want to try
at home.
Go ahead and take a hold of my arm and take a deep breath
in. You just relax, you just give me the weight of your body.
Deep breath. And exhale. And then back down. Bend up
the elbows. You can let them down.
Kerrys real natural with this, but most people have trouble
even just that little bit, and so its a wonderful practice to kind
of let some of that go. Rubbing on the back of the heart is
another great way to open up the Heart Chakra, just on
either side.
And then if you want to take it just a little bit different, if
someones got lower back problems or something, you can
step in right here, take a hold of the shoulders and then just
give me the weight. So you dont use any of your muscles at
all. And exhale, deep breath in. And so its wonderful sort of
release for the whole body. Hows that?
And to be able to let go and give yourself something like this,
theres a difference to it as opposed to regular massage.
Anyone whos had one feel free to venture your opinion.
Audience Member: Very delightful.
Page 49
Jackie:
Its been one of the most spiritual experiences that Ive ever
experienced.
Syl:
When you open up the energy lines in the body, you open up
the flow of just basic life force and that life force is God. And
so its
impossible to not feel it when those lines are open. But just
existence and everything else tends to kind of take that
away. Go ahead and roll up. And then why dont you sit
cross-legged in front just facing the group.
And a great way to kind of continue opening up the heart is
with the Thai yoga therapy is just a release in the shoulders.
Lift through the heart, so take a lift through the heart; take a
deep breath in and then just press down and out through the
shoulders. Another deep breath.
And one of a great affirmation for the heart and for someone
whos dealing with some of the issues that weve talked
about tonight any of them is I am enough. And doing
whatever you need to do to give yourself experiences where
you can connect with that feeling of I am enough right now,
is going to change because if youre enough, then youre not
alone.
Okay. Go ahead and lift the arm up this way, well bend at
the elbow. And Im just gonna kind of massage the tricep a
little bit. And to get underneath the heart, kind of closer in
the back, Im going to demonstrate that on the other Kerry.
Two minutes.
Just a little opening there. Deep breath in. And I basically
put my elbow right behind her heart. And I press in on the
elbows, I pull back with the arm. And it just gives you a
really great relief.
Great. And then other hand up. And if you want to learn
how to do this or learn a few techniques, twice a year I do a
guided partner workshop if you want to bring someone and
learn a few of the techniques. Deep breath in. Try that
again.
Page 50
Im going to have you bend your elbow that way. Okay, then
go ahead and hold on to my hand. And I think Ive got one
coming up in July. Deep breath. Great.
So for me, yoga was a way I connected with that. The
issues of the heart and the fact that I am enough. And that
no matter whats going on, that I am not alone, and I lived my
life thinking I was completely alone for most of my life.
Take the hands behind, lace them together, press down
through the shoulders and gently begin to lift the arms. This
takes practice
over time.
As you exhale, move into a forward fold,
continuing the upward stretch in the palms of the hands.
Work with gravity as you make a firm base through the feet,
inhaling through the heart, exhaling, pressing back through
the shoulders and the palms of the hands. Work with gravity
as you make a firm base through the feet, inhaling through
the heart, exhaling pressing back through the shoulders in
the palms of the hands.
Inhale, come up allowing the hands to just gently rest down.
Reach high above the head and exhale down to a forward
fold. Take a breath in, make space in the spine and exhale
the belly towards the knees. Inhale. Step the right leg back
for a lunge. Again lace the hands gently once you have a
firm foundation.
Behind the back, press down, out and up, lift up with the
heart, actively reaching the heart upward and open. When
youre ready, exhale the hands down, step back gently and
lower the knees, chest and chin. Moving through cobra,
align the neck looking down at the floor.
Inhale, gently reach up through the spine as though
someone were pulling you up and forward, take a deep
breath in and exhale, tucking the toes back through
extended child. Putting the pressure in towards the thumbs
will open up the shoulders and the heart.
Take a deep breath in with the right leg forward for lunging
on the opposite side. Take the hands, lace them behind,
Page 51
Page 52
Page 53
Continuing to an advanced ushtra-asana, again, knees, hipwidth apart, lifting up through the heart, pressing with the
thumbs deep into the sternum.
Reach up with the heart, extend the hands back, take a deep
breath in through the low belly, allowing the neck to continue
along the spine falling back, breathing in and breathing out,
a steady lift up through the heart.
Coming up, leave the shoulders slightly tucked to protect the
neck, and exhale down into the child pose. Gentle rest the
forehead on the ground, gently rest the hands on the
sacrum.
