How The LifeLine Technique taught one woman to face her challenges and say ‘thank you’
By Melissa Fitzgerald
Pain, fear and challenges. We endure them every day. We muddle through stress at work, difficult relationships, chronic illnesses and just get by. However, what if you could actually face each challenge with gratitude and look at your problems and say “thank you” from a place of peace and balance?
Six years ago, Maribeth Morrissey had no idea she would rise to such a place of wellness, and in the process discover a way to help others.
Morrissey battled challenges on several fronts. She suffered from severe allergies, chronic pain and depression. Her allergies would flare without warning, swelling her eyes and tightening her throat so bad she was taken to the ER several times each year. However, no one could diagnose what she was allergic to. An EpiPen was a constant companion, just in case.
Ironically, while living in Tampa, Morrissey worked as a pharmaceutical sales representative with access to the area’s top allergists, ENTs and immunologists. Her mysterious allergies won her the privilege of being a case study at the University of South Florida. After two years, rounds of tests, diet changes and many prescriptions, the doctors revealed a final diagnosis: idiopathic anaphylaxis, also referred to as “unknown cause.”
Desperate to find the root of her symptoms, Morrissey looked for remedies at health food stores and was referred to an integrated medicine physician, a practice that weaves traditional medicine with natural therapies. Taking a more holistic view, her doctor found that her immune system and adrenals were compromised.
But the biggest surprise was learning that the level of stress in her life was a major contributing factor to her health problems. Mounting stress and unhappiness had created a physiological response in the form of her symptoms. After moving back to Cleveland, Morrissey’s doctor, encouraged her to undergo stress management sessions and referred her to a therapist who was certified in the LifeLine Technique.
Developed by Darren Weissman of Chicago, a nationally renowned doctor, the LifeLine Technique (LLT), is described as an evolutionary way to release the root cause of symptoms and disease. It uses muscle testing, a flow chart and the healing frequency of “Infinite Love and Gratitude” to harmonize the subconscious emotions that have resulted in symptoms.
LifeLine has been hailed by acclaimed author/publisher Louise L. Hay as “the wave of the future,” and by Japanese visionary Dr. Masaru Emoto as the key to “awaken consciousness.”
At its core, LLT is a form of energy medicine in which the practitioner provides connections to your subconscious. Through the treatment, you discover areas of your past and present that keep you stuck and allow you to release those blockages so you can refresh and move on without the weight of the trauma or stress that had been holding you back.
After just a few sessions of LLT, Morrissey could not believe how much better she felt. “It was like a weight being lifted, and my symptoms started to diminish,” she said.
Morrissey realized she’d been paying attention to everything but who she truly was and what she needed to be happy. She now sees that her symptoms were her body’s way of telling her to slow down and focus inward. “I could see my life in a whole new way and accept stress and challenges as gifts in strange wrapping paper,” she said. “I now focus on how we can learn and grow from them.”
So inspired by her healing process, Morrissey traveled to a conference on LLT given by Dr. Weissman. “How could I not share this with others?” she asks. “Knowing how much this helped break through the challenges of pain and fear, I had to become a part of it.”
Over the next two years, Morrissey worked directly with Dr. Weissman and dozens of other LifeLine practitioners from around the world to earn her certification and establish a practice in Solon, Ohio.
“I work with each individual to discover their challenge, get to the root and then release it from the subconscious. We determine your positive intention and then harmonize and reprogram every cell in your body to mirror your intention, so you can consciously attract the desired outcome to you.”
