Working at the Source
Working at the source simply means working with causes rather than symptoms.

Many psychological and physical issues will exhibit similar symptoms on the surface but have completely different causes. Similarly the same cause can manifest in entirely different ways. This is why it’s important to look for the source of what is happening for the individual.

The methods Eva uses are not band-aid solutions. They are designed to help people know themselves deeply, to get in touch with their own essence and also to get to the core of issues that block them. Eva uses meditative and awareness techniques that take clients beyond the ordinary ‘chatty’ mind and which allow the core of emotional issues to be experienced safely. When made conscious, issues can be transformed, resulting in increased awareness, changes to deeply held psychological patterns, better functioning in daily life and an increased sense of enjoyment, fullness and Self. This deep level of introspection is combined with healing on an energetic and spiritual level. This gives you a solid and grounded way to healing and staying healthy.

Looking at the source of psychological issues does not mean living in the past. It means working on things held in consciousness that block you from being more of your Self here and now.

Working with Your Potential
Human beings have much more potential than what is visible on the surface. The style of work Eva practices involves processes that are designed to put clients in touch with inner aspects of themselves. Clients experience parts of themselves that are more joyful, awake and knowing, aspects that have an innate self-healing capacity, and that can help clients move beyond mental and emotional limitations that hold them back in life. These inner aspects of human consciousness are not abstract qualities but have a direct relation to who people are and what they are able achieve in their daily lives.

A Holistic View
Eva’s approach is one that incorporates different dimensions of your being: physical body, mind, vitality or the 'qi' of Chinese medicine and acupuncture; and the spiritual. These aspects of our selves are not separate. They influence and interact with each other. Change involves taking into account and working with the whole person.

Direct Experience
Eva works experientially, that is with an emphasis on your direct experience rather than on theories or beliefs.

Modalities
ISIS (Inner Space Interactive Sourcing), Soul Therapy , Meditation, Dynamic Awareness,

ISIS
ISIS is an acronym that stands for Inner Space Interactive Sourcing. More than just a technique it is a therapeutic process that employs an inner space of meditation to 'source' or look for the causes of conditioned emotions, attitudes and beliefs. It was originally designed by Samuel Sagan MD in the early 1980s for people doing long term meditation practices to remove blockages that stopped them from experiencing deeper states of consciousness. It was also found to have a profound impact on helping people free reach emotional freedom in their daily lives. ISIS was developed into a therapy by a group of psychotherapists, doctors and natural therapists working with Dr Sagan and is now used by therapists around the world.

ISIS is the key process Eva uses with clients to help them resolve issues. The inner space provides a powerful 'engine' for experiences beyond the ‘chatty’ mind. It allows clients to see and know for themselves the causes of psychological issues. Once issues are made conscious, there can be understanding and resolution.

One of the important strengths of ISIS is that it integrates psychological and metaphysical dimensions. It allows clients to resolve issues through putting them in them in touch with deeper aspects of themselves. It also works to empower clients through involving clients in their own healing processes.

What happens during an ISIS session?
The client lies down comfortably on a mattress with eyes closed and the therapist sits by his or her side. The therapist guides the client into a meditative state. Once in this meditative state, a state of enhanced ‘vision’ unfolds where the clients feels and sees things in their own consciousness with increased sensitivity and awareness. An example of this may be experiencing emotions as forms or waves in consciousness, re-experiencing past events such as events from childhood or past lives with vivid sensory details, seeing blockages in the body of energy, experiencing spaces of consciousness or feeling an enhanced sense of 'self'. At times there may be release of emotions, allowing openings and deeper realisations to occur. Due to the nature of the inner space, ISIS experiences flow in a safe and untraumatic way.

Whilst in the meditative state, the therapist asks the clients questions about their experiences and an interactive space is engaged in order to help the client move deeper to the source of experiences. ISIS often involves a somatic component where the therapist presses a spot (depending where it is) on the client's body. This helps the client connect to emotions and sensations in the body related to issues being worked on. At all times the client is conscious and has control over the process. If the client wishes to return to a normal state of consciousness they only have to open their eyes. ISIS sessions usually last for just over 1 hour.

Soul Therapy
Soul Therapy aims at healing the person at every level of their existence, not just their symptoms, and not just their body. Its main modality is hands on healing, but at the same time combines this with counselling, and looking at the persons surroundings to see how these affect the person. It is no good healing someone during a course of sessions, only to have them go back to an environment at home that will make them sick again. It is important to look at everything from geopathic stress and other environmental influences like electormagnetic fields in the home, to the way their home is arranged, to their relationships, and thier internal dialogue.

Meditation
There are many health benefits associated with meditation such as lowering blood pressure, relaxation, controlling stress, experiencing more positive emotions, increased immunity to disease. Meditation has also been proven to be of help for various conditions such as depression and anxiety. But the essence of meditation is an internalisation of your consciousness. Meditation allows you to establish a deeper connection with your true self on a daily basis.

Dynamic Awareness
For change to occur there must be awareness. 'Dynamic awareness' or awareness in action is a way of allowing the change process to keep happening between therapy sessions. It takes no extra time and is done during daily activities. Awareness techniques also provide fresh, more interesting and more dynamic ways of seeing the world.
