Heal the Healer


"Heal the Healer" is an important concept because healers—whether they are therapists, counselors, doctors, or spiritual guides—often absorb a lot of the emotional and physical stress from the people they help.

Here’s why healers themselves might need healing:

  • Emotional Fatigue: Healers are regularly exposed to the traumas, stresses, and pains of others. This can lead to compassion fatigue or secondary traumatic stress, where the healer experiences emotional and physical symptoms similar to PTSD.


  • Self-Neglect: In their commitment to caring for others, healers might neglect their own emotional and physical needs. This can lead to burnout, decreased effectiveness, and personal health issues.


  • Mirror Own Issues: Healing others can often mirror a healer’s own unresolved issues. They might encounter cases that resonate deeply with their personal challenges, which can be triggering and require their own healing work.


  • Maintaining Effectiveness: To be effective in their roles, healers need to be at their best physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Regular self-care and healing ensure they maintain their ability to help others without being overwhelmed.


  • Spiritual and Emotional Growth: Healing can be a profound journey of self-discovery for healers, too. Engaging in their healing allows them to explore deeper layers of their consciousness and spirituality, enhancing their capacity to assist others.


  • Setting Boundaries: Learning to heal and care for themselves helps healers establish healthier boundaries with those they help, which is crucial for long-term sustainability in caregiving professions.


  • Renewal and Rejuvenation: Healers also need periods of renewal and rejuvenation to replenish their energy and regain their strength, allowing them to continue their practice effectively.


In essence, "Heal the Healer" acknowledges that healers are human too, and maintaining their health is essential for them to continue being a healing presence in the lives of others.


What are the challenges faced by practitioners who haven't addressed their healing needs?

  • Transference: As healers, understanding our own emotional wounds is crucial to effectively manage and recognize transference, where clients may project their unresolved issues onto us. This awareness helps maintain clear boundaries and supports the client’s healing process.


  • Empathy and Understanding: Deeply understanding and empathizing with clients can be hindered without going through your own healing process. Your ability to connect and provide support may be limited.


  •  Emotional Resilience: Unresolved issues can make healers emotionally vulnerable and less resilient, particularly when dealing with difficult or triggering client cases. This can lead to burnout and compassion fatigue.  


  • Modeling Behavior: Healers serve as role models for their clients. If they haven't undergone their own healing journey, they may not effectively model the behaviors and practices needed for recovery.


  • Effectiveness: A healer's own healing journey often informs their therapeutic approach and techniques. Without personal healing experiences, their effectiveness in helping clients may be compromised.  To be most effective in their roles, healers must prioritize their own healing process. This allows them to provide a safe, empathetic, and understanding space for clients, ultimately supporting their clients in their healing journeys. 


By participating in this program, you'll not only improve your own well-being but also strengthen your impact on your clients. Let’s embark on this journey together, ensuring we are healed and whole, ready to guide others to a place of strength and understanding.

Why Jungian Inner-Alchemy?

Healing through Jungian inner alchemy is considered profound and long-lasting for several reasons, primarily due to its depth and comprehensive approach to personal transformation. Here’s why it stands out:


  • Archetypal Insights: Jungian psychology introduces individuals to the universal patterns and images that reside in the collective unconscious—archetypes. Understanding these can help people see the larger patterns in their lives, providing a greater context and meaning that aids in healing and personal growth.


  • Individuation Process: This is the core of Jungian therapy, where the goal is the realization of the Self, which encompasses both conscious and unconscious elements of one’s personality. This journey towards individuation helps individuals to become more whole, aligning their conscious lives with their true inner selves. This alignment is not just about healing from specific issues but fostering a deep, enduring transformation.


  • Integration of the Shadow: Jungian inner alchemy emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and integrating the shadow self—those parts of ourselves we deny or ignore. By bringing these aspects into consciousness and reconciling them, individuals achieve a more complete self-understanding, which promotes lasting psychological resilience and health.


  • Holistic Approach: Unlike some therapies that may focus only on symptom relief, Jungian inner alchemy aims for a holistic balance of mind, body, and spirit. It encourages a journey of self-exploration that considers spiritual and existential dimensions, leading to profound personal insights and transformations.


  • Transcendent Function: Jungian therapy fosters the transcendent function, a psychological process in which conscious and unconscious attitudes are brought together. This reconciliation of opposites leads to the development of a new, higher level of consciousness, which is key to long-term psychological change.

These elements make Jungian inner alchemy not just a method of treating psychological disturbances but a transformative experience that redefines and enhances an individual’s entire being, fostering sustained well-being and profound inner peace.

Why is it rather difficult to understand Carl Jung's processes of inner-alchemy?


Understanding Carl Jung's processes on inner alchemy and the archetype of The Self can be challenging for practitioners for several reasons:

  • Complexity: Jung's concepts are intricate and often deeply psychological. They require practitioners to delve into the complexities of the human psyche, which can be daunting.


  • Unconscious Processes: Much of Jung's work focuses on unconscious processes and symbolism. These are not always readily accessible and may require practitioners to explore their own unconscious depths, which can be uncomfortable.


  • Personal Healing: To understand and apply Jung's teachings, practitioners may need to confront their own unresolved issues and embark on their own healing journeys. This can be a difficult and ongoing process.


  • Integration: Jungian psychology emphasizes the integration of different aspects of the self. This involves acknowledging and reconciling one's shadow aspects and striving for individuation, a process that can be emotionally demanding.


  • Paradigm Shift: Jung's ideas often represent a paradigm shift for those trained in more traditional therapeutic approaches. Adapting to a new way of thinking and practicing can be challenging.



Despite these challenges, many practitioners find immense value in Jung's teachings, as they provide a comprehensive framework for understanding the human psyche and promoting healing. However, a deep commitment to self-awareness, personal healing, and ongoing study is typically necessary to effectively apply Jungian concepts in therapeutic practice.


Carmen Sauciuc

Carmen Sauciuc is the creator of FeelFulness® Feel a Feeling by Choice, building on the wonderful work of Dr. Carl Jung: Individuation, Dr. William James: Functionalism, Dr. Milton Erickson: Tailoring & Utilization, and Dr. Martin Seligman: Maximizing Human Potential, Applied Positive Psychology. 

Feelfulness® is a practice designed to help you generate specific states of being and develop or modify your traits. It takes the concept of mindfulness to even greater depths by allowing you to become aware of your emotional states and then modify or influence it positively, all made possible by the incredible power of neuroplasticity. Feelfulness® -Feel a Feeling by Choice- employs methods where a feeling /emotion is experienced in anticipation by using unique linguistic elements such as evocators, movers, and descriptors arranged in triplicates, to evoke an experience in which you can cultivate a positive psychological state and develop new or modify existing personality traits.

Carmen Sauciuc is board certified by American Board of Hypnotherapy, International Certification Board of Clinical Hypnotherapists, International Association of Counselor and Therapists, American Board of NeuroLinguistics, trained with the Milton H. Erickson Foundation, is a Contemporary Shaman, a Reiki Master Teacher and designs thought-feeling® practices as Feelfulness® techniques for both therapeutic purpose, peak performance or mastery.

Carmen Sauciuc coined the term “Feelfulness®” in 2011. A Mensa member and an international best-selling author Carmen professes “all it takes is willingness.”

If mindfulness is a state achieved by focusing your awareness on the present moment, calmly accepting your thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations, Carmen teaches you how to achieve a higher state of Feelfulness by choosing the thought-feelings® desired, generating that state and using it both as a therapeutic technique, peak performance or mastery.

Deliberately practicing chosen thought-feelings on a regular basis provides a significant tangible shift in your state of being. The verb To Be is an example of a state verb which relates to the state of being. In other words, if you ARE, then you are in the State of Being.

The masterful self never entertains a feeling which does not contribute to a desired achievable outcome. This is the secret of Mastery.
