The Catalyst
Document
Introduction of the
Document:
This document is
designed to help
people become
familiar with
Catalyst. To achieve
a more in-depth
understanding of
“the work,” the best
understanding of
Catalyst occurs as a
natural result of
receiving the work.
The terminology of
Catalyst is an
important part of
the system. The
person delivering a
session is called
the facilitator.
The person receiving
a session is called
the participant. The
mindful use of
supportive
terminology conveys
the
inherent commitment
within Catalyst to
influence positive
outcomes.
Overview:
Catalyst offers a
wide variety of
applications to
support the art of
living well. In
delivering both
interpersonal care
(the
professional
application of
Catalyst from
facilitator to
participant) and
intrapersonal care
(the
self-application of
Catalyst), people
can explore the work
at their chosen
level of
participation.
This
document
specifically covers
the
professional
application of
Catalyst, namely the
interpersonal branch
called Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is a
expert system of
highly skillful
results coaching or hands-on
facilitation, as
selected by the
participant. It
addresses the
integrity of the
nervous system
to bring about
reported
improvements in
quality of life.
Through a process
known as somatic
education—education
for
the body, Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation acts as
a tutor, as a
conditioning agent
for enhancing peace.
The nervous system
consists of a
sensory pathway and
a motor pathway. The
sensory pathway
receives stimuli—
changes of the
internal and
external
environment—and
sends its signals of
information to the
brain for
processing. The
motor pathway then
transmits the
processed messages
of the brain and
delivers them to the
body.
Facilitators of
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation use
language and
coaching, and
depending on the
Type of Care; touch, movement, and
body positioning to
enhance somatic
awareness—the body's
ability to perceive
and interpret
stimuli—and body
dynamics—the body's
ability to respond
and
adapt to stimuli.
Enhancing somatic
awareness involves
the sensory pathway.
Improving body
dynamics addresses
the motor pathway.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation advances
the understanding of
somatic awareness
and body dynamics
and their
roles in supporting
neurological
expansion—the
catalyst for
improving a person's
movement through
life with more
peace, grace, and
ease.

Types of Care:
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation offers
four Types of Care.
Each type addresses
a different
objective:
* Type 1: To feel
better—to direct
peace, breath,
movement, and
fluidity to a
specific area of the
body
* Type 2: To
function better—to
assess and address
the integrity of the
body in support of
functional peace
* Type 3: To live
better—to invite the
whole person to live
as a coherent
messenger of peace
* Type 4: To "be"
better—to support a
greater intimate
connection between
individual and the
wisdom of life
flowing
through the body
Type 1 tracks
non-linear neural
pathways to connect
specific areas of
the body to each
other. Type 2
evaluates the
body to deliver the
best form of somatic
education. Type 3
incorporates the
mind/body connection
and maximizes its
role in improving
quality of life.
Type 4 ushers people
to the dynamic still
point within and
surrounding the
body.
The analysis system
of Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation
clarifies which of
the four Types of
Care is most
appropriate.
The following pages
cover each of the
four Types of Care
in greater detail.
People tend to
relate more to the
Type of
Care meeting their
current, objective.
Introduction to Type
1:
Type 1 supports
people who choose to
feel better, who are
looking for more
peace in a specific
area of their body.
Physical challenges
commonly motivate
people to seek Type
1. These challenges
often occur as a
result of
nonadaptive
stress being stored
in specific regions
of the body. The
more common physical
challenges of
non-adaptive
stress include:
* body tension
* shallow breathing
* restriction of
movement
* pain and
discomfort
* low energy
With Type 1,
facilitators
stimulate non-linear
neural
pathways—unique
meridians of the
body. These
passageways
connect Areas of
Influence—the
specific areas a
facilitator
contacts—to Areas of
Manifestation—the
areas of the body
storing non-adaptive
stress.
The Area of
Influence and Area
of Manifestation are
often at different
locations on the
body.
Facilitators begin
Type 1 from an Area
of Manifestation and
track its non-linear
neural pathway to
locate and address
its Area of
Influence. Since
facilitators
directly contact
Areas of Influence
(not Areas of
Manifestation), the
body's own
internal resources
do the work in
unwinding/releasing
stress and inviting
more peace.
Homeostasis:
Homeostasis is the
ability of an
organism to maintain
its internal
equilibrium by
adjusting its
physiological
processes.
Type 1 facilitates
movement within the
body to maximize its
dynamic expression
and support
homeostasis.
Stimulating
movement within the
body is the impetus
for animating
non- adaptive stress
and facilitating
positive change.
The body has an
inherent ability to
continually
regenerate and renew
itself. Every second
new cells are born
in the body
to replace old dying
cells. For
regeneration to
express its full
quality of renewal,
new cells must
exhibit their
vibrant
quality. By
maximizing the
dynamic expression
of the body, Type 1
supports the body to
better express its
vitalistic,
homeostatic ability.

The Philosophy of
Type 1:
Many people
interpret an
uncomfortable
manifestation in the
body as an indicator
of malfunction.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation was
created with the
understanding that
the body is always
whole and
functioning well.
From this
perspective, any
manifestation the
body expresses is
perfect given the
specific set of
circumstances
preceding the
manifestation.
Type
1 focuses on
altering the input
(the stimulus going
into the body) to
influence the output
(the
expression coming
out of the body).
Sometimes, an
uncomfortable
manifestation of the
body presents itself
to get a person's
attention. During
these times,
the body sends out a
signal of distress
to direct a person
to make a specific
change and meet the
precise need of the
body. When the
body's objectives
are met, meaning the
input the body
receives matches the
exact need of the
body,
the output often
changes and the
person often feels
better.
With Type 1,
facilitators
introduce specific
techniques of
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation at
precise areas of the
body, at Areas of
Influence. The
application of Type
1 is
highly specific to
meet the precise
threshold point
between inhibition
and excitation of
the adaptive
process—the body's
ability to perceive,
interpret, and
respond well to
stimuli, to changes
of the internal and
external
environment. As the
facilitator gently
offers the body a
physical suggestion
to expresses a
greater range of its
dynamic ability, the
body can
more readily
manifest its own
peaceful changes and
exhibit a more
dynamic tone.
Type 1
most peacefully
stimulates
the adaptive process
of the body to
support peaceful
improvements in tone
and expression.
Clarifying Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation:
Some manifestations
of the body require
immediate medical
attention. For this
reason, anyone who
has a health
concern regarding
any specific
manifestation should
seek the services of
licensed healthcare
professionals
properly
trained in and
actively practicing
the art of diagnosis
and treatment.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is a
unique system of
facilitation, NOT a
healthcare or
alternative
healthcare
practice.
Participants
receiving treatment
of any kind have the
sole responsibility
of informing their
healthcare provider
of their decision to
receive Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation. The
purpose of
exercising this
important
responsibility is
to be certain
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is
supportive or, at
least, neutral to
any specific,
medically formulated
treatment plan.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is not a
system for
addressing medical
issues. It is
neither a practice
for naming or
treating symptoms,
conditions, or
ailments nor a
practice
discouraging naming
or treating
symptoms,
conditions, or
ailments. Naming or
treating symptoms,
conditions, or
ailments is simply
not within the scope
of practice for
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation.
Facilitators of
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation focus
exclusively on
educating people to
enhance their
quality of life,
independent of any
presenting condition
or state of health.
Although symptoms,
conditions, or
ailments may undergo
changes as a result
of receiving
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation,
participants have
the sole
responsibility of
addressing symptoms,
conditions, and
ailments with the
licensed healthcare
providers of their
choice who 1) deal
with, 2) properly
diagnose, and 3)
offer treatments for
symptoms,
conditions, and
ailments.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation uses the
integrity of the
nervous system to
help the body create
and carry out
strategies for
moving through life
with more peace,
grace, and ease.
Any
increase or decrease
in subjective symptomatology is
not an indicator of
a person's
increasing or
decreasing state of
health. Participants
who choose to
assess their state
of health must
direct themselves to
professionals
properly trained to
offer objective
assessments of
health.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is
clearly NOT a
healthcare approach.
To administer the
proper diagnostic
tests
necessary to assess
both health and the
lack of health
requires extensive
and continuous
post-graduate
studies in the
field of diagnosis.
With the deepest
respect toward this
ever-evolving field
of science,
diagnosis and, thus,
the ability to
assess health most
objectively are
beyond the scope of
practice of Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation offers a
unique practice of
wellness. Under a
paradigm called
Living-Well
Accountability Care,
this supportive
model of wellness
empowers
participants to make
improvements in
lifestyle at the
exact degree and
time to support
maximal comfort and
integration.

Benefits and
Recommendations of
Type 1:
Type 1 unwinds and
releases tension in
the body.
Many
participants feel
better after
receiving Type 1.
This unique form
of unwinding and
releasing results in
deeper breathing,
easier body
movement, and
greater ease in
standing straighter.
Participants decide
for themselves when
they choose to
receive Type 1.
If
the first encounter
with Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation comes as
a result of
receiving the
services of Type 1,
facilitators will
most likely offer
the services of Type
2 for consideration.
During the initial
phase of receiving
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation,
receiving a specific
program of
wellness—Type
2—supports the
distribution of more
peace through the
body.
Introduction to Type
2:
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation offers
Type 2 as a program
of somatic
education—education
for the body.
Type 2
offers a unique form
of maintenance.
Using the functional
integrity of the
body, Type 2
addresses both
tensional
dissipation
(unwinding and
release of
non-supportive
tension) and
peaceful
dissemination
(redirection and
redistribution
of supportive
tension) to bring
about the experience
and expression of
more peace through
the body.
Somatic Education:
Somatic education
occurs as a natural
result of the body
perceiving and
interpreting
stimuli. When a
stimulus supports
functioning
peacefully and is
repeated at specific
intervals to support
integration, somatic
education becomes a
great
ally.
The stimulus
of Type 2 is highly
respectful and quite
supportive for
strengthening the
ability to function
peacefully.
An example of
somatic education is
the conditioned
response of Pavlov's
dog. After ringing a
bell, Pavlov's dog
was
immediately fed. By
repeating the
sequence of ringing
a bell and feeding
the dog, bell
ringing resulted in
Pavlov's dog
salivating in
anticipation of
food. In this case,
the stimulus of the
ringing bell
conditioned a
response, the dog
salivating.
The body is a
receptive-based
system continually
learning from its
experiences.
Facilitators of Type
2 use the science
of somatic education
to condition the
body to experience
and express more
peace. The
gentleness of Type 2
supports
the following
understanding: The
body's ability to
function peacefully
can be strengthened
when specifically
encouraged
to do so.
Facilitators of
Type
2 intentionally uses
the most gentle
contacts possible to
enhance both somatic
awareness
(of the
afferent/sensory
system) and body
dynamics (of the
efferent/motor
system).
Somatic Awareness in
Type 2:
Somatic Awareness
represents the
ability of the body
to perceives
stimuli—changes of
the internal and
external
environments. It is
intimately connected
to the sensory
portion of the
nervous system. It
is also responsible
for initiating
the body's
homeostatic
reflex—an
involuntary response
to a stimulus. For
the body to respond
well to a stimulus,
it
must first perceive
the stimulus. By
enhancing somatic
awareness, Type 2
helps the body
perceive the more
subtle
(gentle) forms of
stimuli.
The following
example illustrates
the importance of
enhancing somatic
awareness: If a
mosquito lands
undetected on a
person's arm, a
preventative
response will not
occur and the person
will receive a
mosquito bite. With
enhanced
somatic awareness,
the mosquito (acting
as a stimulus) will
be felt (perceived)
on the arm and a
reflexive response
will
occur preventing a
mosquito bite.
Somatic awareness
involves the sensory
(afferent) pathway
of the nervous
system. The sensory
pathway receives
messages from the
inner and outer
environment and
sends them to the
brain for
processing. The
other pathway of the
nervous system (the
motor pathway),
receives messages
from the brain and
sends them to the
body.
Page 4 of 10
© 2006 Association
for Catalyst
Body Dynamics in
Type 2:
Body dynamics
involves the motor
(efferent) pathway
of the nervous
system. Once the
body perceives
changes in the
internal and
external environment
(through somatic
awareness), the body
attempts to respond
and adapt to the
changes. The purpose
of increasing body
dynamics in Type 2
is to improve the
body's
responsiveness and
adaptability
to changes of the
internal and
external
environment. A more
dynamically
functioning body
responds 1) more
quickly
and 2) more
appropriately to
specific perceived
stimuli.
As the body better
perceives more
subtle stimuli
(through enhancing
somatic awareness)
and exhibits an
increase in
response-ability
(through improving
body dynamics), it
naturally responds
more gently and
peacefully.
Enhancing
somatic awareness
(of the sensory
pathway) and body
dynamics (of the
motor pathway)
supports the goal of
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation, of
assisting people to
move through life
with more peace,
grace, and ease.
The Analysis:
The analysis of Type
2 includes
evaluating a
person's body type,
tone, and
responsiveness. This
evaluation directs a
facilitator to focus
on enhancing either
somatic awareness or
body dynamics,
whichever pathway
needs more
attention.
In addition, the
analysis also
directs a
facilitator to 1)
the exact location
to address on the
body, 2) the proper
technique
to introduce to the
body, and 3) the
precise application
of the proper
technique.
Benefits of Type 2:
Type 2 conditions
the body to process
subtle stimuli. By
perceiving,
interpreting,
responding, and
adapting to subtle
changes, the body
processes life more
peacefully.
As the name
“Catalyst” implies,
facilitators
encourage the body
to create and carry
out its own
strategies for
experiencing and
expressing more
peace. By
encouraging the body
to do the work,
functioning more
peacefully occurs
more often and lasts
for longer periods
of time. Type 2
offers many
benefits. Some of
these benefits
include postural
improvements,
increased
flexibility, better
quality of sleep,
and a more positive
outlook on life.
Recommendations of
Type 2:
Among the four Types
of Care, only Type 2
directly focuses on
somatic education,
on conditioning the
body to function
more peacefully. The
sessions of Type 2
build upon each
other. Following the
proper program of
care supports the
best
result.
The Initial Phase of
receiving Type 2
lasts approximately
three months. During
that time, receiving
Type 2 two to three
times per week is
best. (The
facilitator
evaluates the body
to determine the
most supportive
schedule of Type 2.)
The Reductional
Phase follows the
Initial Phase. A
reduction in the
frequency of
receiving Type 2
occurs as the body
becomes more aware
of and responsive to
subtle internal and
external changes.
The Continual Phase
is the ultimate goal
of Type
2—maintenance. The
frequency of
receiving Type 2 as
a protocol for
maintenance varies
according to the
specific body type
and goals of the
participant. As a
general guideline,
receiving
Type 2 once a week
is often enough to
remind the body to
function more
peacefully. With all
of the demands and
distractions in
life, one session of
Type 2 per week
continues to be the
most accurate
starting point for
devising the
best program of
maintenance.
In determining the
proper frequency for
each unique person
receiving Type 2,
the following
understanding
remains
most essential:
Deliver the minimal
amount of Type 2 to
encourage the body
to function well on
its own. A fine line
exists between
receiving Type 2 too
often and not
receiving Type 2
enough. Due to the
sensitive nature of
this fine line,
Type 2 requires
facilitator and
participant to
engage in honest
dialogue in devising
the proper program
of care.

Introduction to Type
3:
Type 3 represents an
advanced form of
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation. It
focuses directly on
the actions of a
participant, on the
specific practices
necessary for the
full expression of
personal integrity
and living most
fully.
Personal integrity
is an expressive
state of wholeness
demonstrating
congruency among
thoughts, words, and
actions.
To strengthen
personal integrity,
facilitators place
attention on
aligning mind and
body to each other.
Personal integrity
occurs naturally
when the mind and
body live in deep
agreement with each
other. The full
expression of
personal
integrity directly
contributes to a
participant's
peaceful walk
through life.
Participants state
an intention before
receiving Type 3.
Depending on the
intention, the
facilitators initial
focus is on
enhancing either
somatic awareness or
body dynamics.
Enhancing somatic
awareness supports
the alignment of
mind
to body. On the
other side,
increasing body
dynamics supports
the alignment of
body to mind.
Together, enhancing
somatic awareness
and body dynamics
facilitates a more
cohesive and, thus,
peaceful
participation in
life.
Philosophy of Type
3:
"If each person
functions most
optimally, we would
observe each person
bringing inspiringly
unique contributions
to
life."
An important factor
for supporting
personal integrity
involves embracing
diversity and
uniqueness. Type 3
does not
attempt to bring
each person to the
same, idealistic
state of normalcy.
The focus of Type 3
is, instead, to help
all people
find and embrace
their special,
unique individuality
and gifts.
Facilitators of Type
3 simply work to
support mind/body
alignment—the deep
agreement between
intention and
action.
The underlying
premise of Type 3 is
as follows: An
animating,
orchestrating,
unifying, governing
intelligence exists
throughout life.
This unconditional
intelligence
supports and directs
all of life. With
this underlying
premise, 1) all
living
things are connected
to each other, 2)
all acts and events
are purposeful, and
3) both the
community and the
entire
ecosystem are
supported through
the expression of
each individual's
personal integrity.
Type 3 supports the
total embodiment of
personal integrity,
which brings about
the peace and
freedom of walking
through life well.
Actively
participating in
life with the
experience and
expression of peace
is a most accurate
indicator of
embodying personal
integrity.
The Moving-Toward
Intention:
"When I stopped
living in the
problem and began
living in the
answer, the problem
went away."
—Alcoholics
Anonymous
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is a
practice of "living
in the solution,"
apart from
addictions, as a way
of life, of
using intention as a
springboard for
positive
movement.
Participants begin
Type 3 by
articulating an
intention toward a
favorable,
describable result.
By stating a
positive (forward)
intention, Type 3
directs attention on
the desirable
outcome. Stating a
positive intention
is a practice
of living in the
solution. An
intention focusing
on moving away from
a current,
undesirable state
puts attention on
the
negative condition.
Putting attention on
the problem gives
the problem the
energy it needs to
sustain itself.
The approach of Type
3, of moving toward
a clearly stated
objective invites
people to have their
ultimate destination
in
mind. Knowing this
destination allows
the wisdom within
the body to create
and carry out
strategies for
achieving a
most efficient,
successful arrival.
Many times, these
strategies of
somatic wisdom are
non-linear, meaning
they do not
follow a predictable
or initially
understandable path.
Here is an analogy
to illustrate the
importance of having
a moving toward
intention with a
describable
destination.
Imagine going into a
taxicab and having
no destination in
mind. This lack of
directionality
confuses the driver.
When a
clearly articulated,
specific destination
is given, however,
the driver can and
will begin to move
confidently in that
direction. The
driver of the
taxicab responds
well to a customer
who states a clear
destination.
Similarly, the body
responds well to a
sincere moving
toward intention
coming from a
participant of Type
3.
Page 6 of 10
© 2006 Association
for Catalyst
Benefits of Type 3:
Each moving toward
intention has a
specific
destination. This
destination often
includes a specific
feeling and/or a
physical
manifestation. For
example, someone may
state an intention
of "expressing more
confidence.” The
destination
of this intention
may include enjoying
a greater feeling of
certainty and
demonstrating a more
erect posture.
The conceptual
mechanism of Type 3
is as follows: A
person who states an
intention and lives
in deep agreement
with
that intention sets
up a coherent
resonance, a
specific vibrational
frequency attracting
the physical result.
This shift in
focus directs all
subsequent thoughts
and actions to bring
about the intended
result.
Energetically,
stating a moving
toward intention
begins a shift in
attitude.
Physically, stating
a proactive
intention begins a
change in posture
and
participation.
Together, changes in
attitude and
participation create
a powerfully
effective influence
for manifesting an
intention.
While many
approaches focus on
fixing what is
wrong, Type 3
focuses on expanding
what is right. For
example,
facilitators
actively search out
an area of the body
functioning most
peacefully (Area of
Influence) to expand
that peace
to other areas
(Areas of
Manifestation). By
properly addressing
the most peaceful
areas, facilitators
direct the ripple of
peace outward,
toward areas of the
body requesting more
peace.
Type 3 supports the
body in becoming
more aware, dynamic,
and adaptable—thus
more obedient to
sincere intentions
of the heart. With
Type 3, participants
choose the focus.
Facilitators of Type
3 simply work to
align the mind and
body
(intention and
action) to support a
most congruent,
cohesive influence.
The demand for
congruency
encourages
participants to be
more present to life
and their
participation in
life, which results
in living with more
energy and passion.
Expressing personal
integrity brings
about a greater
sense of internal
well-being. As a
holistic approach to
wellness,
Type 3 supports
people to know
themselves better
and to think, speak,
and act more
cohesively and
congruently. The
result is the
experience and
expression of more
wholeness.
Common reports from
participants who
receive Type 3
include: a deeper
peace throughout the
body, greater
confidence and ease
in decision making,
improvements in
relationships, more
patience in dealing
with others, more
loving feelings
towards others, a
sincerely greater
interest in
supporting others,
greater hope for the
future, and more
life enjoyment.
Type 3 helps people
gain a clearer
understanding of how
they relate to
themselves and
others. It sheds a
light on the
lifestyle changes
participants are to
make to bring about
great enhancements
in well-being. The
entire approach of
Type 3 becomes a
highly supportive
practice of
wellness, of helping
people "get it" in
their body
(integrate their
intentions into
their life).
Recommendations of
Type 3:
Receiving Type 3 is
different from
person to person and
changes each
session. Type 3 is
masterfully
intuitive and has
no formal program of
care.
Participants decide
for themselves when
to receive a
session. This puts
responsibility where
it belongs and has
people
participating more
fully in their
process. Type 3 is
similar to rock
climbing. Rock
climbers know when
to journey ahead
and when to rest.
The journey makes
the rest sweeter,
and the rest makes
the journey strong.
Receiving Type 3 at
the
right time supports
the best result,
personal integrity.

Introduction to Type
4:
Type 4 ushers people
to be more in touch
with their body,
with their breath
and movements to
“be” more in touch
with
life. Delivered with
no talking, Type 4
deepens the intimate
connection between
individual and
wisdom of life. Some
of
the more common
names for this
wisdom with which a
person most
intimately connects
include field of
consciousness,
still point,
infinite mind,
higher self,
oneness, and God. A
plethora of other
names also exist to
label this truly
indescribable
partner of
connection.
Whereas Type 2 is
education for the
body (somatic
education), Type 4
is education from
the body. Many
people say
Type 4 feels like
“home” and describe
it as a remembering.
Regardless of the
description, the
greater connection
from
Type 4 results in
more clarity and
deeper peace.
Facilitators deliver
Type 4 by contacting
precise areas of the
body to direct
awareness to the
subtle movements
through
the body. A
facilitator
delivering Type 4
encourages people
receiving the work
to be more
inner-directed in
determining
how to “be,” when to
move, change
positions, etc..
Benefits of Type 4:
The meditative
atmosphere of Type 4
creates a calming
influence. Each
person receives
different benefits
from Type 4.
For people choosing
stillness, the
wisdom brings deep
silence. For people
needing hope, a
glimpses of a better
future
appears. For people
on the go, rest
takes a much needed
turn. For people
ready to resolve
past emotional
hurts,
understanding
promptly arrives.
For nature lovers, a
pervasive sense of
oneness permeates
the moment. For
seekers,
in-sights abound.
For people who know
the moment is truly
enough, deep peace
becomes the only
option. For a soul
starved for
recognition, the
touch of respect
brings great honor.
For the emerging
elder, each moment
becomes a
touch of
sanctification. For
people scarred by
their own
imperfections, tears
of total forgiveness
run joyfully free.
For the
gut-wrenching
grieving heart,
grace offers an
outstretched hand
saying, “Everything
is going to be all
right.” For people
devoted to service,
the warmth of pure
gratitude thrives.
For the deeply
passionate artist,
enthusiasm
flourishes. For
the chronically
fearful person,
moments of
increasing trust
become possible. For
a spirit needing to
soar, the window
opens and the breeze
invites flight. Many
sessions of Type 4
go beyond words and
description and
support a most
delicious and
fulfilling life.
Recommendations of
Type 4:
Thankfully, no
ceiling exists
regarding
improvements in
quality of life.
Many people who
continue to receive
Type 4 do
so because of the
steady progress they
make with
reconnection and
remembering. Through
Type 4, people
joyfully
reaffirm, “Life
keeps getting
better!” Since
improvements
continue, the
recommendation for
Type 4 is simply,
“Yes!”

Reviewing the Types
of Care:
Type 1 Objective: To
feel better—to feel
more peace in the
body
Many factors bring
stress and overwhelm
the body such as
mental anxieties,
physical insults,
emotional
challenges,
and chemical toxins.
The more overwhelm
(non-adaptive
stress) the body
stores, the more it
physically expresses
challenges. Type 1
increases body
dynamics which
enhances flexibility
and the body's
ability to adapt to
stress.
Type 2 Objective: To
function better—to
function more
peacefully
For most people, the
ability of the body
to respond
peacefully to stress
lies dormant or is
underdeveloped. With
somatic
education, the body
can learn to respond
favorably,
peacefully. Since
each person is the
sum total of his/her
embrace
of past experiences,
the quality of care
received today
influences the
quality of life
enjoyed tomorrow.
Type 3 Objective: To
live better—to live
more fully
When the mind and
body are in
alignment with each
other, wholeness is
obvious. Type 3 is a
proactive approach
enhancing
self-direction and
connecting people to
their desirable
state of well-being.
It supports
congruency and peace
throughout the body.
Type 4 Objective: To
"be" better—to be
more present and in
touch
Life is intelligent.
The flow of life
through the body
communicates
“messages” specific
for each person,
based on the
individual or need
of life. Being more
“in touch” with life
has people being
more clear and
present.
The Survey:
Each person is the
ultimate authority
regarding the
effectiveness of
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation.
Subjective
surveys are given at
various times. These
surveys allow each
unique individual to
evaluate whether or
not his/her
quality of life
improves as a result
of receiving
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation.
More than 95% of the
people who receive
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation on a
steady basis
report—through the
survey—moderate to
significant
improvements in
quality of life.
Although these
surveys are
subjective, the
extremely
high percentage of
people who report
improvements makes
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation an
objective success
as well.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation supports
the achievement of
personal
fulfillment, of
assisting people in
moving
through life with an
inspiring amount of
peace, grace, and
ease. By using the
outcome assessment
of the survey,
people are able to
monitor for
themselves the
promise of Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation—of
enjoying an
everimproving
quality of life.

What to Expect:
What people get out
of Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is
directly
proportional to what
they put into it.
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is a
personalized
process. Results are
greater the more
sincerely a person
chooses to
improve quality of
life.
The potential for
experiencing greater
peace increases
significantly with
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation. Some
people feel a
tremendous amount of
sensations
immediately. Other
people initially
feel only subtle
changes. Most
people are keenly
aware within the
first few sessions
of something very
creative, exciting,
and powerful
awakening
within them.
Every response to
Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is
perfect. A person
new to the work may
begin slowly or take
off
like a rocket. Some
people move among
all four Types of
Care. Others remain
in one particular
Type of Care. Each
person has a unique
integrity relating
to receiving a
session. Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation respects
and honors
that integrity by
acknowledging each
process as being
perfect for that
particular person at
that particular
time.
Emotions, such as
laughter or tears,
may occur to free
the body from their
weight and control.
Regardless of how
people respond,
consistently
receiving Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation will
have people learning
from the depths of
who they are. The
power of Catalyst
Neurological
Reeducation is
within, and, as
Michelangelo stated
about the beauty
of his statue David,
"He was there all
the time. He just
had to be freed."
