Memory In Our Bones, [EarthSong Press , 2020] reveals how memories, fueled by painful emotional and traumatic experiences from the deep and recent past, are imprinted in your cells, bones, tissues and energy system. Elizabeth Burke M.A. developed the practices of Transforming Embodiment, upon which this books is based, into a simple yet direct 5-step process in 1991. Using this technique clients have transformed unwanted fears, anxieties, deep emotional wounds and even physical symptoms.
Each of us carries unresolved emotions and memories around with us, like damaged luggage that can give birth to physical symptoms, complex emotional reactions and relationship discord.
When similar life situations challenge us again, these unconscious feelings and memories will re-awaken, often causing us to react in ways that are uncharacteristic and unsettling. If unaddressed, these emotions can transmute and move from a purely emotional level to manifest physically. Memory In Our Bones gives the reader techniques for releasing and transforming this cycle from within once and for all.
No book to date so thoroughly explains the spiritual, psychological and scientific aspects of how memory is embodied, how consciousness may survive death and how this affects us in our daily lives and relationships.
Memory In Our Bones expands present concepts in body-mind healing and medicine and takes the reader to a profound new level of knowledge and experience. Memory In Our Bones weaves the spiritual and healing traditions of Asia and Hawai'i, to energetic healing, modern psychology and body-mind medicine.
This book is a rich tapestry of research, simple direct practices, case studies and personal & clinical experiences, that deftly interfaces with existing spiritual and psychological traditions while expanding present concepts about how the mind can heal the body and visa versa. Memory In Our Bones is a unique and far-reaching book.
Offers an in-depth look into the nature of consciousness & healing.
It shares an effective new way to heal trauma and the past, and reveals how memory is not just of the mind but is imprinted in your cells, bones and DNA.

Elizabeth Burke created and developed these remarkable techniques from her clinical work with clients and her personal experience while helping her husband prepare for major open-heart surgery.
His complex surgery was shortened by two and a half hours using these techniques. And his recovery was swift and pain-free. His cardiac-catheterization prior to surgery was the easiest procedure his technician had ever performed, she said.
These innovative practices have helped clients prepare for a variety of surgeries and medical procedures with similar remarkable results for nearly a decade.

INTRODUCTION
For eight years, my husband lived with his heart murmur, and its ever-present swish - swish through his aortic valve. Then his symptoms worsened. He was out of breath more and tired more easily after a long day at work, and the murmur was more pronounced, so his doctors ran some new tests and he was told he had "SEVERE AORTIC STENOSIS".
Those were the only words he remembered, as a shock wave hit his nervous system like a tsunami. Shock set in and he did not hear another word that they said. Those 3 words were as tall as the Hollywood sign in his mind and he wasn't able to take anything else in.
He faced this alone, after he told his boss he was not feeling well and Alan told go to VA and get this checked out. He did, and now he had a diagnosis, but he had to come home and tell me. He did with a third person present, in case I freaked out but I didn't. I shifted from wife to healer and shared that we needed to talk to his heart and get him ready for surgery and what was to come. That is how this booklet came into being.
These visualizations and exercised helped prepare his heart, lungs, kidneys and all his organs for open heart surgery and being on bi-pass. By preparing in this way, by talking to his organ systems, this helped his surgery go smoothly and it shortened the length of his surgery from seven to eight hours to five and a half hours. This preparation allowed his nervous system and organs to not overreact when he was put on by-pass.
In these pages I will share what I developed, what we learned along the way in hope of making this life changing surgery a little less daunting and more in your control as well as in the able hands of your cardio-thoracic team.
