Wayne Cook Posture



The Wayne Cook Posture is named to honor Wayne Cook, a pioneering researcher of Bioenergetics force field who demonstrated the effectiveness of this technique for treating dyslexia and stuttering.

This exercise can also help with a wide range of psychological problems, including confusion, obsessiveness, compulsivity, disorganization, depression, and excessive anger.

If you are in a relationship with a partner who doesn’t seem to hear you, or if you have difficulty speaking your own truth, this is an excellent technique to use prior to any confrontation or important discussion.

This technique is also effective even when the upset is so intense that you are unable to quit crying, or find yourself snapping or yelling at others, sinking into despair, or feel that you are beyond exhaustion. The Wayne Cook Posture helps process stress hormones.

To do the Wayne Cook Posture, sit in a chair with your spine straight (time-about 90 seconds)
  1. Place your left foot over your right knee. Wrap you right hand around the front of your left ankle and your left hand over the ball of your left foot, with your fingers curled around the sides of the foot
  2. Breathe in slowly through your nose, letting the breath lift your body as you breathe in. At the same time, pull your leg toward you, creating a stretch. As you exhale, breathe out of your mouth slowly, letting your body relax. Repeat this slow breathing and stretching four or five times.
  3. Switch to the other foot. Place your right foot over your left knee. Wrap your left hand around the front of your right ankle and your right hand over the ball of your right foot, with your fingers curled around the side of your foot. Use the same breathing.
  4. Uncross your legs and “steeple” your fingertips together so they form a pyramid. Bring your thumbs to rest on your “third eye” just above the bridge of your nose. Breathe slowly and deeply, in through your nose and out through your mouth, about three or four full breaths.
  5. On the last exhalation, curl your fingers into the middle of your forehead and separate them, firmly and pleasantly, pulling across your forehead to your temples.
  6. Slowly bring your hands down in front of you. Surrender into your own breathing.

Tinnitus / ringing in the ears

Occasionally we receive questions regarding specific issues. Here is an example.

Question: Tinnitus / ringing in the ears

I have the Introduction to Energy Medicine DVD. (It is just like being in the class!) I deal with ringing in my ears, so I printed out the article on tinnitus from your website, but I would like additional information. Will there be an educational class or another DVD that I could view on how to help myself in correcting this condition?

I enjoyed the DVD showing Donna, along with her husband, demonstrating different Energy Medicine techniques. It has been a great help. I would like to attend a class much like the one on the DVD. Where should I start?


Answer:

While watching Donna on a DVD is a great way to begin; reading her book and learning about Energy Medicine is the place to start. A class with Donna offers more of a hands-on experience which is an effective way to help you understand more about how to use it for yourself. So, it is suggested to attend a 5-Day Training with Donna.

Because Energy Medicine is about energy balance and flow; and every person has their own energy signature, the energy affecting the tinnitus in each person will differ. This is why learning the basics of Energy Medicine first is important to achieving success with its use.
