Quintessential ~ The `fifth essence’ of ancient and medieval philosophy, supposed to be the substance of which the heavenly bodies were composed, and to be actually latent in all things, the extraction of it by distillation or other methods being one of the great objects of alchemy.
“‘Quintessential’ began life as an alchemical term, the Quinta Essentia, the fifth that arises from the four elements mentioned in the etymology above. The Fifth was thought to be the fabled Philosopher’s Stone which the alchemists sought, a Stone that could cure illness, extend life, and turn base metals into gold and silver. How to combine the four elements to make the Fifth was the great problem of alchemy. In alchemical terms "solve et coagula" means to separate and join together (or "dissolve and coagulate" in Latin) a medieval alchemy quote, which is to say that nothing new can be built if not before we make space, breaking the old. This is what Quintessential Alchemy strives to do ~ To dissolve and break apart old patterns, making space for the alchemical gold of Spirit to enter. Alchemy is an ancient proto-science tradition, precursor to modern inorganic chemistry; Jung saw it as a Western proto-psychology dedicated to the achievement of individuation, as substances, physical states, and molecular material processes could be metaphors for metaphysical issues, spiritual states, and, ultimately, transformations. Solve et Coagula is the essential alchemical process. "Solve" or "solutio" refers to the breaking down of elements and "Coagula" refers to their coming together. In the process of transmuting base metal into gold, this contained both literal and metaphorical meaning. "Solve" referred to the dissolving and vanishing of hardened positions and negative states of body and mind. "Coagula" referred to the coagulation of dispersed elements into an integrated whole, representing the new synthesis. Quintessential Alchemy Healing Arts offers an eclectic blend of therapeutic practices to promote healing experiences and transformations of body, heart & psyche and assist to dissolve unhealthy patterns and beliefs, transmuting them into the alchemical gold of Spirit, Connection, Health & Wholeness.

Something for us all to ponder...

"Beneath the surface of the protective parts of trauma survivors there exists an undamaged essence, a Self that is confident, curious, and calm, a Self that has been sheltered from destruction by the various protectors that have emerged in their efforts to ensure survival. Once those protectors trust that it is safe to separate, the Self will spontaneously emerge, and the parts can be enlisted in the healing proces."

“Trauma is in the body, not in the event”
"Our earliest unintegrated lived experiences are carried with us throughout our adult lives. They are held both within the body and our subconscious mind. The outward expression of these trapped energies often manifest as self sabotage, cognitive issues (learning difficulties, and memory loss), relationship issues, hyper aroused states (anxiety), disruptive behavior, pathologies, depression, negative thinking, etc… these outward manifestations often form the basis of our identity, “who we think we are”, and how we appear to the world. These energies when not channeled properly have the potential to diminish self worth and dramatically change the course of a persons life, as they are living for their wounds not the truth of who they are.
As a response to traumas, we form complex survival mechanisms aka personality traits that veil the truth of who we are. We embody a blue print that solely manifests for self preservation rather than divine alignment. A person stricken with grief because of the loss of a primary care giver may manifest that grief later in life as an inability to form intimate connections with others. This person could be described as aloof or cold. Is this outward manifestation who they innately are? No. But it appears that way.
It is not only our upbringing however that can be blamed for our nervous systems being highjacked and our inner children running amok. Popular culture, endocrine disrupters, fear programming, violence portrayed on our screens, social media and much more only further keep us in our wounds and out of alignment with our authentic selves.There are no quick fixes for a wounded inner child. But there are definitely many paths toward mastery over its outward expressions in a way that is empowering rather than disempowering. It is fully possible to live in your divine blueprint and not from survival. To come from a place of wholeness. Commit to your unraveling of that which is not you, connect to what lS you."
