About me
It has been a journey. And it wasn’t an easy one. I have suffered a lot, physically and mentally. Even though I have had relatively happy childhood, I somehow ended up with uncomfortable feelings and limiting beliefs. I felt like I didn’t belong, I felt not good enough, I felt like I always must be perfect, make everyone happy, people-please, that I could not say “no” to anyone, setting boundaries wasn’t in my vocabulary. I felt like my needs weren’t important and I was prioritising everyone else but me.
I felt invisible, I had this deep feeling of sadness and anger, somewhere, for some reason, and I could never understand why I felt it. I was getting emotional quickly, any argument, tension, I felt like it was my fault and that I had to fix something about myself.
During my university time, for 4 years I was experiencing heavy psychosomatic symptoms and back then I could not understand it was because of all of those stored emotions I did not know how to deal with. I felt burning sensations all over my body, as if I was on fire, I felt numbness of limbs, struggled to lift things, I thought I have a serious disease no one can test me for. The world was spinning constantly, the floor was falling. I felt dizzy and nauseous.
When I think about it now, it was the most difficult time of my life, not only because of the university, but also health struggles. My body was not able to deal with all of those stored emotions, and stress I accumulated. I was calling my mum crying that I don’t know what to do, that I am scared and tired of this all, that I want to give up. But I had to push through the challenges because I couldn’t afford to quit university at that time.
I lacked boundaries, I was accepting any relationships that brought me comfort. I was vulnerable, I was lonely, and because of that I was sexually assaulted at university. I was used and felt like it was all my fault. It wasn’t easy. But I made through it. And I am proud to be here today, telling you, my story. Story of an imperfect woman who went on a journey to discover herself, spending so much time, energy and money investing in herself, investing in understanding what was wrong with me, to find out that everything was right the way it was.
The only thing that was missing was that I needed tools to manage my emotions and problems, instead of distracting myself, pushing them away, running away, ignoring them, instead of telling myself there was something wrong with me. I was numbing them emotionally, but they were coming out through my body, oh, very loud and clear.
The last 10 years I spent learning about psychology and behaviour, and emotional release techniques, studying myself and others around me. I also started all sorts of therapies to find out how I could help myself. I did counselling for 3 years, CBT therapy for a few months, had referred to group therapies on the NHS. I went for holistic therapies, like acupuncture, reflexology, energy healers, soul healers, and crystals… I was desperate to find what works because all of those uncomfortable emotions were causing me to experience psychosomatic symptoms.
All the stress, workload, tensions, and problems around me, I wish I could have the tools to manage my emotions when I needed them most. Because thinking back, those emotions were manifestations in my physical body, which means I was experiencing psychosomatic symptoms that were unexplained by modern medicine. And talking therapies did not work for me; they were just going around and around all the traumas and limiting beliefs, without actually removing them or helping me go through them.
We are all humans, we have all the same emotions, experiencing the same problems. Our problems are all related to the same things: money, relationships, career, health, housing, life purpose, family, work, stress, mental health issues, life changes, limiting beliefs, self-love.
Every solution to your problem is already within you. You are stronger than you think you are. You have way more power in you to overcome anything that is standing on your way.
That is why I am telling you my imperfect story, so you know that there is always a way out from years of suffering, pain, years of empowering your limiting beliefs, years of feeling uncomfortable emotions.
If you feel like my story resonates with you, and my way of helping you is lighting something in you, if you wish to learn something about yourself and work with those uncomfortable emotions, that means that you are ready.
I am here to help you with the best tools that I have learned in the last 10 years. Those tools help me, every day, help people around me and my clients. They are so powerful, and the best part is that I can teach you how to use it yourself so you can use it any time, when you need it most, forever.
That way I will give you a fishing rod to catch your own fish, so you will never go hungry again.
And you might feel scared of the unknown, what you might uncover, or the therapy process, or whatever that is, and that is okay. I will guide you through it all. Just take my hand.
Thank you for being here. I really appreciate you. I hope you will get in touch with me, and I will do my best to help you in any way I can.
With my whole heart I believe that you are here for a reason.
With love,
Dominika
