What does a session look like?

Sessions are usually held outdoors. Beginning with a conversation, the client finds a place, as they are comfortable, to rest on a blanket on the earth. Each session respects the whole person and is unique to the client and their needs.The practitioner makes hands-on contact, asks questions, and brings their presence and experience to explore the client's inner world with them and help shift perspective.

About the practitioner

What does it mean to become a place of healing?In this modality, a practitioner is one who becomes a place of healing, makes contact, and helps a client shift perspective. Passed down from a lineage of Lipan Apache healers and scouts, it is called NIASZIIH. This translates to, “vessel/basket or… place of healing.”This place of healing is currently taught through seven years of quarterly classes, near Asheville, NC, at school called wildernessFusion.

Aaron is a fifth year student at wildernessFusion. The first four years are spent making deep contact with one’s own stuck places, wounds/gifts, and internal landscape. To make shifts in these places, students learn various manual therapy techniques to connect with the client's world, moving away from judgement, toward awareness by finding the next question.To become a practitioner of NIASZIIH is to become- a place of healing.Now, in his fifth, sixth, and seventh year, he is learning to work with more specific conditions: cancer, autoimmune, and heart disease.
