Bioenergy Healing Practitioner Training

2005-2006 Apprenticeship Training Course

The Bioenergy Healing Research Foundation presents a unique opportunity for you to train with its founder, Michael Cohen. Each year Michael will select only 3 students to train alongside him in his clinic. The student will gain hands-on experience and extensive training with up to 300hrs clinical case work and lots more...

This course is possibly the most intensive hands-on training course available that is set in a clinic environment. Explore and learn in real-time the dynamic techniques of Bio Energy Healing Treatment.

Michael says, ”There is no analysing, no cognitive therapy, no journeying into the past. All work is in the present and moving towards tomorrow. There is no attachment to archetypes, philosophical or spiritual belief pattern. We are talking about working with pure energy. We do not attach labels, or put things into boxes...it can only limit our work.

It can be adapted to the needs of the client or into a game with a child. Adapted to any environment or to a roadside accident. There is no limit! It’s about not trying too hard and gaining that heightened instinctual awareness and ‘knowing’ rather than thinking. Energy is real, the treatment is tangible - the healer feels it, and so can the client. The proof is in the results, and that is what it’s all about.”

It is for those individuals who want to learn to use the tools as an effective form of treatment. Its not just about training it’s a lifestyle, but without the …ism’s, the philosophy and any mumbo jumbo. It’s scientific and it can be replicated. Working with energy enters every aspect of a person’s life. It’s about feeling it, listening to it and ‘knowing’ it.

The course is for those who want more than just a job, it’s a way of being, a way to develop their own being beyond anything that they have done before. No limits, No boundaries. You don't switch it off; it’s there all the time. It’s not about being in a meditative state or at the clinic, you breath it, feel it, and live it. Its tangible its real and most importantly the results are living proof of it. If this resonates with you then lets move on!

Bio Energy Healing

Bio-energy Healing Treatment has a scientific approach that works with the electromagnetic fields and circuitry of the body. It is not a textbook approach, neither is it a general form of healing, It is accurate, precise and specific to the individual.

Energy Sensitivity - Bio-energy Healing Treatment can be taught to anyone who is electromagnetic sensitive i.e. they can feel energy in their hands or body (tingling, heat, draft, coolness, pulling, vibration).

It’s full potential is always to be explored and expanded on. The more one works with the technique the more it enhances and their electromagnetic sensitivity increases. It never stands still; the more it continues to evolve the more dynamic are the results.

Ongoing Training Months 1-12

Fitness training - Fitness and exercise is an integral part of servicing and maintaining the body. In order for the body to have good flexibily, mobility, core and general strength, stamina and endurance it needs to be challenged and stimulated in the same way that the mind needs it.
Throughout the course you will be given hands-on training in fitness and exercise . You will be challenged to develop a standard of fitness and exercise appropriate to you as an individual. This is of major importance for the following reasons:

-You will need to advise clients of fitness and exercise techniques.
-You need to be of an example to your clients i.e. practice what you preach.
-Your personal development will challenge and drive you to move beyond your current limitations.
-In order for you to undertake the level of training and practitioner work you will need to maintain a high level of fitness as part of your overall heightened level of performance.

Nutrition - Once again this is an integral part of work. As Gillian Mckieth says' You Are What You Eat'. Your understanding of basic nutrition , diet and cooking is of importance to your ability to perform as well as to a client. Throughout the course you will be required to study and experiment with various nutritional and dietary requirements. We do not recommend restrictive or authoritarian diets. We encourage our client's to eat as natural, unprocessed and organic foods as possible but ultimately for them to work towards an instinctual diet i.e. eat what their body requires in a balanced and healthy way.

Personal Development - Whether you have been doing personal development work or not you will need to continue throughout your training and as a practitioner. To be honest it is a life times work. However the more you do initially the less work you have to do in time. You will be expected to work exclusively with our techniques. This is of prime importance for the following reasons:

-You need it, like everyone else!
-You need to experience for yourself what it is like to be on the receiving end of treatment.
-If you mix techniques then you cannot categorically says this is the result of this treatment rather than that.
-You need to move beyond anything that you have done before
-You need to maintain your system for it to be more complete.
-You need to experience and work towards your full human potential.
-For you to be able to give treatment you must maintain your system so that your work is not of detriment to your health and well-being.
-You need to be an example to your clients.

Additional studies and courses will include:

-Self-study in Energy Medicine , cellular biology and communication, electric body and circuitry.

Author's Bio: 

Michael Cohen is founder of the Bioenergy Healing Research Foundation.

Michael was born in 1967 in NW London, where he lives with his wife Joanne, who is the Administrator at the foundation, along with his 3 children.

Over the last 10 years his studies have included: hatha yoga, meditation, tai chi, chi-kung, nutrition, detoxification, ethical studies and philosophy. His current studies and research is in metaphysics and cellular - biology, regeneration and communication.

Michael like most of his clients comes from a background where hyper-sensitivities effected him on an: emotional, psychological and physical level. They brought with them many disruptions, discomforts, physiological disorders and pains. These included sensitivity/intolerances to a wide range of foods, chemicals, environmental and electro pollution. Additionally for 16 years he suffered with debilitating spinal problems. Symptoms and ailments included degenerate discs, scoliosis, Sherman's Disease, sciatica and hyper-mobility - causing him major physical restrictions as well as frequent and repetitive injuries.

Using Bioenergy Treatment Michael has overcome all his food intolerances and hyper-sensitivities. This has enabled him to adapt (without compromise) to the environment around him. Similarly he finds that his sensitivities now enhance his life rather than restrict it as it has previously. In respect to his spinal problems he has experienced re-alignment, strength and mobility which has brought with it confidence, and the continued ability to excel on a physical level beyond any previous limitation and boundary. His physical activities now include: off-road mountain biking, indoor rock climbing, martial arts and running.

Another aspect which is attributed to his work is his eye vision which over the last 2 years has seen his glasses prescription reduced by 75%. He has gone from full-time glasses use down to only using them for driving.

Michael like his clients continues to enhance his performance on all levels: instinctual, physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual. As a practitioner his own case study is his longest and his continued work on himself brings with it the ongoing positive shifts.

His personal ongoing case study is of fundamental importance and it is a hands-on testament to what is achievable as well as knowing what it is like to be on the receiving end of the techniques. Just importantly it enables him how to keep his body's system working: effectively, efficiently and preventatively. Michael is able to share his experiences and teach his clients how they can similarly move beyond illness, disease, performance limitations and restrictions.

“I was first introduced to Bio-energy Healing by my former teacher Trond, who approached me at my organic food shop where i also had therapy rooms. Having trained with Trond in the first instance, he taught me how i can use my hands and my body's energy system as an effective and efficient tool. What transpired from this relationship was to be the start of a new beginning for me.

Thereafter i have continued to work on myself, enhancing my instinctual awareness and widening my perception. Most importantly it enables me to further transform and tune my heightened sensitivity to energy and enhance my range of tools and techniques. These attributes continue to enhance along with my ability to adapt and find balance on all levels, moving me beyond past limitations and restrictions.”

Michael Cohen

Having established 3 treatment clinics, Michael subsequently founded the Bioenergy Healing Research Foundation for training and research. His ongoing exploratory and experimental approach to his work at the cutting edge of Bio-energy medicine and healing treatment, has seen the techniques continue to enhance and evolve into RaphaYad.

Most importantly they have lead to the extraordinary high level of results and continues to push the boundaries of human: rehabilitation, development and potential.

As a practitioner, Michael’s works with RaphaYad Bio-energy Healing treatment helps him to fulfill his life purpose. He has witnessed adults and children transform their lives by overcoming short-term and life-long debilitating: illnesses, trauma and limitations. The results help him to quantify the effectiveness of Bio Energy healing treatment as well as demonstrate its true value as an effective and efficient tool.
