Emotional Detox Through Bodywork is an alternative healing modality which is transformational by nature and has the powerful capacity to releasing stored emotional trauma down to cellular level. Emotional release at cellular level can bring about a remarkable emotional and physical transformation literally changing lives and transforming a person’s entire physical and emotional body.
Established by Mal Weeraratne, author of “Emotional Detox, Emotional Detox Through Bodywork” the practice of Emotional detox has become well-known as a means of healing, one which is based on awakening to the philosophies of both Tantra and Tao. Also known as Emotional Release, Emotional detox is like performing a physical detoxification of the body. It is geared to help the body to purge emotional toxins from the body to free the mind and body from old and stagnant emotions which may be holding a person back from living a well balanced and purposeful life. Events in our past which have caused us to react in fear, shame, guilt, insecurity, or grief, are not always passed from the body and are stored within the body where they can create disease and emotional stress on the body and mind. These emotions and feelings should ideally be processed and leave the body in the same way as the things that we in-take in the form of food and drink do. When the body is not functioning optimally, it can hold onto and store things which should ideally be released.
Mal Weeraratne’s Emotional Detox Through Bodywork is holistic in approach and works in alignment with the mind-body connection which links the three energy bodies, namely: physical body, energetic or emotional body and the spiritual body.
Emotional release, if practiced with certified practioner, Mal Weeraratne, will facilitate the cessation or curbing of the retention toxic emotions and improve the body’s ability to flush out all existing or new toxins facilitating a fresh start from where it can better function. This is what the aim of Emotional Detox is. The body is a complex emotional matrix affected by the multitude of micro or macro events and situations which we encounter as we go through life. All the organs, endocrines and body parts form integral parts of the whole that is the body / mind. Mental and emotional triggers can lead to diseases such as depression, insomnia, cancer or diabetes. When we release these trapped emotions and traumas, as part of an emotional detox, this affords the body the ability to start again from a significantly healthier standpoint.
Benefits of Emotional Detox with Mal Weeraratne include easing symptoms of mental and physical afflictions such as stress, anxiety and depression thereby increasing one’s drive for engaging and reducing any fears or pain. This can increase one’s self-confidence and rebuild a person’s sense of self-worth and belonging. Increased confidence and self-esteem in turn curb poor body image and lessens body shaming of the self. Not to mention physical difficulties such as PMS and period pains, or any other associated dysfunctions.

To do this, a person would need to develop first an intellectual understanding of sacred sensuality and then allow it to deepen into a heart-centred knowing that human beings are essentially born free and so too should they life free.

While Mal Weeraratne himself exudes passion for his life’s work, which is a practical and compassionate approach to healing the body-mind connection through sacred sensuality, the basis of his teachings stem from the ancient Indian healing arts associated with emotional release. So as the body can find a physical release through tantra, so too can it find an emotional release. Research shows that the release of negative emotions can occur when Sacred Spot massage is performed, releasing, renewing and cleansing the body. Despite the abundance of research by scientists and spiritual guru’s alike, the benefits of tantric healing and the art of tantra comes under the firing line of questions about how and why it is so effective.

Those who have experienced the emotional detox for themselves, attest to the powerful healing experiences they have felt first hand.
Mal Weeraratne explains that the body mind connection is the understanding of how the thoughts can affect the physical body at a cellular level. Thoughts can disrupt the body’s innate ability to produce hormones, chemicals and energy, which regulates a person’s health and well-being. Negative thoughts are particularly powerful in that can be responsible for disease in the body and mind. Engaging with tantric practices, facilitates the body with the releasing of the negative thoughts and emotions, bring the body back into balance as well as bring awareness to the mind of the powerful impact of positivity can have on the physical. In light of the sensitivity of the tantric journey and the power of the sacred sensuality, treatment with Mal Weeraratne is progressive. As the client and the practitioner become connected, first through talk therapy, followed later by body work such as mediation and massage, the client-practitioner relationship, based on respect and understanding, develops and builds to the point where an emotional release can be achieved.

This, partnered with a healthy awareness of the emotional and physical aspects of sacred sensuality, has the capacity to strengthen physical and emotional relationships, alleviating emotional blockages and reducing risk of disease associated with imbalances and blockages.
