I didn’t plan to write a book; it just happened.
In fact, a mentor had suggested I should write one, and I said, “Absolutely no way! I’m not ready — I’ve got far too much on.”
And in the very next breath, out came, “Yes, I’m writing a book, and it will be called ‘Becoming You’.”
You could have knocked me over with a feather at that moment, because I had no idea what ‘Becoming You’ was or what this book was going to be about.
A little while later, I was lying on the couch one Sunday afternoon when I started channelling poetry. It just started spilling through, so I grabbed my phone and began jotting down my thoughts. That poetry ultimately shaped the chapters of ‘Becoming You’.
Let’s go back to the beginning, though — the beginning of my journey.
I touch on my beginning in the book because I had lost myself, due to trauma, the loss of my husband, leaving me barely surviving with two small children. It took a long time to come back to me.
Kinesiology was a big part of that journey. I began as a client, receiving kinesiology sessions when I was struggling with general anxiety disorder. The shift I experienced was so profound that I decided to learn and share this wonderful modality.
That decision to study kinesiology changed everything, especially my personal healing journey.
It has now been over 10 years, and I’ve grown incredibly in confidence — and as a person.
As a practitioner, I have also evolved. My intuition has well and truly kicked in. I didn’t plan for that one either! One minute I’m muscle testing, the next I’m intuitively getting the answers. I now use that to my advantage, and my clients receive this amazing, blended healing session.
My healing toolbox includes kinesiology of course, hands-on energetic healing, my love of crystals, oracle card guidance, my healing vibrational essences, books, and sometimes even angels and spirit who pop in to deliver a message. I truly get so much joy seeing my clients’ progress.
Back to my book though, ‘Becoming You’ is like a personal, handy guardian to help guide you back home, heart and soul.
It’s written from my heart and contains a blend of soul and science. There are gentle reflections, heartfelt stories, and soul-nourishing practices that I’ve personally used.
There are prompts, and plenty of space for journalling your thoughts too.
Oh, and did I mention there’s a little fun section at the back where I share my Alisonisms? Those cheeky one-liners I’m known for in clinic. They’re little reminders to laugh, reflect, and not take life too seriously while you’re on your healing journey.
‘Becoming You’ can be found locally via my website www.alisondunlopkinesiology.com.au or worldwide as a paperback or eBook on Amazon, Booktopia, Fishpond, and other online platforms.
However ‘Becoming You’ finds you, may it remind you of your strength, your softness, and your capacity to become —fully, beautifully, and authentically you.
Thanks also to Sarah from Storyline House publishers for making my dream come true.
