Soulwork Solutions for Lupus

Systemic Coaching ... Systemic Coach Training

Czech Version

We present interactive seminars and demonstration-rich workshops on systemic coaching, happiness, autoimmune disease and relationship bonds. Email us if you would like a workshop in your area.

Lupus Erythematosus

Systemic lupus erythematosus, commonly called lupus, is an autoimmune disease. There are no accepted cures for lupus. If you have it, your immune system attacks your own body tissues. Your symptoms would likely include a butterfly-shaped rash on your face, headache, fatigue, arthritis, heart damage, shortness of breath, and kidney malfunction. Your symptoms would be intermittent, and perhaps mimic other diseases.

Lupus may follow exposure to infections, certain drugs, ultraviolet light and / or physical or emotional trauma. It is not known which factors triggers lupus, although lupus affects women about ten times more often than men.

Lupus may be diagnosed if a person has a facial butterfly rash, sun sensitivity, kidney malfunction and blood abnormalities. Medical treatment may include medication and environmental control. A person diagnosed with lupus erythematosus may be advised to avoid sunlight, eat healthy food, exercise and control stress.

Lupus Vulgaris

Lupus vulgaris is different to lupus erythematosus - lupus vulgaris is a disfiguring skin disease caused by tuberculosis bacteria, which cause nodular lesions on the face, particularly on the nose and ears. It is also called lupus tuberculosus and tuberculosis cutis luposa. Lupus vulgaris is often treated with ultraviolet light, antibiotics and other medication.

Lupus, Emotions & Soulwork

This information is intended to supplement but not replace the expertise and judgment of physicians or health professionals.

Systemic diagnosis of people with lupus erythematosus can explore the emotions associated with the symptoms, any emotional trauma associated with the disease and the systemic benefits of symptoms (See relationship bonds - systemic coaching can help people recognize and resolve toxic relationships).

Benefits of symptoms may be for the person and / or for other people in the person's relationship systems, particularly people in the early family, any new family, close friends and colleagues. A Soulwork coach may also elicit the person's relationship matrix, and explore whether the person wants to change his or her subjective experience of relationships to control difficult emotions and problematic symptoms.

Two relationship patterns associated with lupus are Identity Loss and Emotional Incest. Either of these may reflect toxic entanglements with family members. Common examples of emotional incest include close relationships between fathers and daughters, and mothers and sons.

[ Emotional Incest ] [ Relationship Bonds ] [ Identity Loss ]

Soulwork systemic coaching can provide a series of relationship experiences that help people with lupus change toxic relationships, emotions, compulsions and disease symptoms; and take responsibility for building and maintaining their own happiness.

Lupus outbreaks often follow stress, physical pain or emotional suffering. Outbreaks of lupus can be delayed or lessened in severity if a person better controls external stress and his or her internal reactions to stress.

[ Control Stress ] [ Control Pain ] [ Emotional Intelligence ]

Soulwork Solutions for Lupus

Following relationship diagnosis, you can create a workable plan that leads to your congruent goals - what you truly want - without your showing any objections. This usually requires that you find important life goals - your life purpose.

[ Meaning of Life ] [ Mentorship ]

NOTE: Be sure to consult your physician regarding the applicability of any opinions or recommendations with respect to lupus, medical symptoms or medical conditions.


Testimonial

I am a rehabilitation therapist in Prague, Czech Republic, where I work with Cranial-Sacral Therapy and now with Relationship Coaching; mostly I work with handicapped people. My story is simple and like a fairytale. I love fairytales, and I often tell them to children in therapy.

In 1997 I became ill with an incurable disease of immunity dysfunction - lupus erythematosus. It is a disease where one's cells attack one's own cells, most frequently the cells of connecting tissue. I spent the first two years between the hospital bed and my bed at home. I had severe problems with movement my joints and sinews hurt, gradually breathing complications were adding on, as lung deterioration began. My diagnosis means that if you want to survive, you must begin to take corticoids, medicaments that repress infections, and cytistatics - medicaments for repressing cell growth.

Within a year I retired as a physically disabled person. I became a person with a handicap myself. Because I was actively involved with alternative medical approaches and I was fully using my knowledge, my state was shifting between good and very bad. The last straw was when my friend and I separated, when I got into great psychological and physical difficulties, and it became clear to me that I had to start to work on my relationships, not only to myself but to my surrounding as well.

In 2000 I attended a lecture about Hawaiian healing traditions; that was my first encounter with Martyn Carruthers. On that lecture Martyn mentioned Relationship Coaching, its goals and methods, and a course in Relationship Coaching in the Czech Republic. That information got me so strongly that I decided from the first moment to enter the course at any price, even though I was unable to, for both physical and financial reasons.

It happened - in February 2001 I became a participant on the first course of Soulwork in Prague. There, totally new doors began to open for me, and I entered a wholly new, to me unexamined space of my own existence. I felt immediately that I had to have coaching with Martyn, so that I could test on myself what he taught and how it worked in practice.

My first coaching session was about my being in a position of a depressive victim, that I had difficulties with my inner self, unclear relationships with both my parents, and that I was partially identified with my dead, mentally disabled uncle. My first therapy was from a victim, who cannot do anything, became a human being who takes responsibility; during the coaching I felt a lot of anger and rage, which helped me move from a depressive state to my goal, which, by the way, was "to be healthy means to be a harmonious person, psychically and physically."

The next Soulwork sessions I attended were with (a Soulwork Coach from Poland who trained with Martyn): Monika Zubrzycka-Nowak. Monika worked with me intensely on clarifying family relations (parents, siblings, ex-partners) and on disidentification with my dead uncle. She also coached me effectively to connect with my inner child. I went to 3 sessions with her.

Strange things began to happen. For the first time in my life I started feeling simple joy from my very existence, unshareable by words. My physical state started improving - gradually my strength was increasing and the continuous pains were vanishing, and the laboratory tests results got better; I could allow myself to decrease the medicaments. About a year later I started discovering in myself the inner theme of integration of the whole personality and clarification of the relationships with my wider family; in these themes Ana Pejcinova - a Soulwork Coach from Macedonia - coached me.

In February 2002, exactly 2 years since I started learning Relationship Coaching, an extraordinary thing happened. I got a cold, which is high risk with my diagnosis; my overall condition quickly moved to a situation where I was at the edge of life and death. There, all my sessions took a real form, and I began feeling an unbelievable feeling, that is again an unshareably great gratitude for life itself. I began seeing my whole life clearly and wholly, and now I live it with a feeling of joy and gratitude. My medical condition is improving gradually, and things that were impossible for me before (e.g. dancing) begin to become normality. I could begin to actively work and create my life in accord to myself, that means that I am aware who I am and what is my goal here.

I thank Martyn, Monika and Ana for their support, and now I can thank my illness, which became my wise friend and counselor.

Můj příběh

Jmenuji se Markéta Bezůšková a v současnosti jsem rehabilitační terapeutkou. Věnuji se nové speciální metodě Kranio-sakrální terapii a teď již také Soulworku, převážně pracuji s handicapovanými dětmi a lidmi.

Můj příběh je velmi jednoduchý a banální s krásným koncem, je to tak trochu pohádka. Já pohádky miluji, často je vyprávím dětem při terapii.

V roce 1997 jsem onemocněla nevyléčitelnou chorobou s poruchou autoimunity - Lupus erythematodes. Je to choroba kdy vlastní buňky napadají vlastí buňky nejčastěji pojivové tkáně. První dva roky jsem střídavě trávila v nemocnici a doma na lůžku. Měla jsem velké problémy s pohybem bolely mne klouby šlachy vazy postupně se přidávaly komplikace s dechem, začaly mě vazivovatět plicní sklípky. Tato diagnóza obnáší, že jestliže chcete přežít musíte začít brát léky kortikoidy – potlačení zánětu, imunosprativa, cytostatika – potlačení růstu buněk.

Během roku jsem se dostala do invalidního důchodu, sama jsem se stala člověkem s handicapem. Protože se velmi aktivně věnuji alternativním přístupům rehabilitace a plně jsem využívala svých znalostí, můj stav různě kolísal od dobrého k velmi špatnému. Poslední kapkou byl rozchod mne a mého přítele, kdy jsem se dostala do velkých psychických a tím pádem u mne i fyzických obtíží a bylo mi jasné, že musím začít nějakým způsobem pracovat na svých vztazích nejenom směrem k sobě, ale také ke svému okolí.

V roce 2000 jsem se náhodou dostala na přednášku o Huně to bylo mé první setkání s Martynem Carruthersem. On se na téhle přednášce velmi okrajově zmínil o Soulworku (SW) jeho cílech a postupech a že zde v Čechách se připravují první semináře Soulwork. Tato informace mne natolik zachvátila, že jsem byla již v první chvíli rozhodnuta tyto semináře podstoupit za každou cenu, přestože jsem na to opravdu fyzicky a ekonomicky neměla.

Stalo se - v únoru 2001 jsem se stala účastníkem prvních seminářů Soulwork v Čechách. Tady se mi začaly otvírat úplně nové dveře a vstoupila jsem do úplně nového, mnou neprobádaného prostoru vlastní existence. Ihned jsem pochopila, že chci podstoupit terapii u Martyna, abych sama na sobě ověřila co říká a jak to funguje v praxi. Moje první terapie bylá celá o tom, že se nacházím v pozici depresivní oběti, mám potíže se svým vnitřním dítětem nevyjasněný vztah k oběma rodičům a jsem částečně identifikována se svým mrtvým postiženým strýcem. Moje první terapie spočívala v tom, že z oběti, která nic nemůže se nastartoval člověk, který přebírá zodpovědnost, ale ještě předtím jsem cítila spoustu hněvu a zloby, která mne začala posouvat s depresivního stavu k nějakému cíli, který mimochodem byl „být zdravá to znamená harmonická osobnost psychicky i fyzicky“. Další terapie jsem podstoupila u druhé lektorky SW zde v Čechách paní Moniky Zubrycké-Nowak. Ta se mnou velmi intenzívně pracovala na vyjasnění rodinných vztahů (rodiče, sourozenci, bývalý partneři) a vyjasnění identifikace s mým mrtvým strýčkem. Také mne velmi efektivně provázela při mé práci s mým vnitřním dítětem. Celkem jsem u ní podstoupila 3 terapie. Začaly se dít zvláštní věci poprvé jsem ve svém životě cítila prachobyčejnou radost ze samotné existence, která je slovem a písmem nesdělitelná. Můj fyzický stav se začal upravovat a to tak, že postupně mi přibývalo sil a mizely úporné bolesti a začaly se upravovat hodnoty v laboratorních testech mohla jsem si dovolit snížit léky. Asi o rok později se u mne začaly objevovat vnitřní témata s integrací celé osobnosti a vyjasňování vztahů se širší rodinou v těchto tématech mne provázela Ana Pejčinová kolegyně a terapeutka Soulwork.

Letos v únoru 2002 přesně před dvě lety kdy jsem začala s metodou Soulwork se stala úplně mimořádná věc. Nachladila jsem se což je velké riziko s mojí diagnózou, celý stav velmi rychle gradoval do situace, kdy jsem se dostala na rozhraní života a smrti tam všechny mé terapie dostaly reálnou podobu a já začala cítit neuvěřitelný pocit, který je opět nesdělitelný velká vděčnost za život samotný. Celý svůj život jsem začala vidět velmi jasně a přehledně i nyní ho žiji s pocitem radosti a vděčnosti. Můj zdravotní stav se postupně vylepšuje a věci, které pro mne nebyly dříve nemožné (jako například tanec) se začínají stávat samozřejmostí. Mohla jsem začít aktivně pracovat a utvářet svůj život v souladu sama se sebou, to znamená, že jsem si vědoma kdo jsem a co je mým cílem zde.

Nyní bych velmi ráda poděkovala zmíněným lidem Martynovi, Monice a Aně za jejich podporu, ale také musím poděkovat svojí nemoci, která se mi stala moudrým přítelem a velkým rádcem.
