FAQ

Mind Body Spirit Release® identifies and deactivates negative subconscious imprints that create emotional and physical stress. Practitioners use muscle/energy testing to locate specific emotional blocks, limiting beliefs, and other energetic blocks that are stressing the nervous system, then apply a clearing process—using a frequency-imprinted cold laser—to help the body release those patterns and regulate. Visit our blog page to read more about Mind Body Spirit Release® and how it works.

The body has several mechanisms to store unprocessed emotions.  Join Tracy Southwick, ND, founder of the academy, in this informative webinar about this subject.

For Foundational Mind Body Spirit Release®, you need an open mind and a desire to grow and help others and yourself. There is a simple application process.

For the Holistic Wellness Approach™ course, prospective students need to have basic knowledge and training of anatomy and physiology. 

Yes. While many of our students are health professionals, we also train individuals who feel called to start a holistic practice or add energy work to their personal or professional toolbox. Our accreditation and structured curriculum make it a strong pathway for those beginning their holistic health careers.

You can begin by applying for the Foundational Mind Body Spirit Release® training or The Holistic Wellness Approach™ course, depending on your background and goals. Once accepted, you’ll receive access to Kajabi, class materials, and upcoming live support call details so you can dive in right away.

Yes, the academy is fully accredited through The American Association of Drugless Practitioners. Once you certify through the Advanced Mind Body Spirit Release® level, you can apply for your Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) through The American Association of Drugless Practitioners. 

The students watch weekly pre-recorded modules and then attend an online, live discussion call to review homework, ask questions, receive additional clarification and instruction. The live discussion calls are recorded but attendance is expected. There is homework associated with each module. 

Yes. The majority of our practitioners work remotely, and many also see clients in a clinical setting. The method is highly adaptable to both in-person and virtual sessions. We teach you the science behind how and why virtual/remote sessions work, as well.  HERE is an interview with  Jen Rochlis, PhD explaining how this works from a quantum physics perspective.

Yes, we require practitioners to certify in each level before practicing for compensation and maintain certification in order to practice Mind Body Spirit Release® for compensation. This protects both you and your clients and ensures quality, ethical practice. 

Certified practitioner will have access to updated information for the course. 

Students need to certify in each level before progressing to the next level. 

A year after initial certification, practitioners are required to participate in a 90-minute mentoring session, for a fee, with a Master Practitioner where they can demonstrate their skills and ask any questions they may have. This is low-pressure and our practitioners tend to enjoy and gain a lot from the experience.

After that first recertification session, practitioners are required to recertify every 2 years through their choice of the purchase of a continuing education module or another mentoring session.

In the Foundational Training, we include a dedicated 7th module called “The Practical Practitioner,” where we show you how to incorporate or build your practice around The Mind Body Spirit Release Method™. We cover business essentials and share helpful tools and resources, including legal support, insurance, and practice management software. 

We also offer ongoing support through monthly calls, our Kajabi community board, newsletters, and in-person meet-ups at conferences like ECO by CellCore.

Yes. Many psychotherapists, counselors, coaches and functional medicine practitioners integrate this modality with talk therapy, coaching and clinical protocols to address both the subconscious and the physical aspects of health. This “bottom-up” plus “top-down” approach often helps clients move through blocks that haven’t shifted with conventional methods alone.

I am an integrative practitioner, Licensed Professional Counselor, Holistic Health Practitioner, and Mind Body Spirit Release® Practitioner. My practice, Hotze Health Collective, in Houston, Texas, is a space for females in all seasons of life to empower and inspire mental health and wellness holistically: teens/adolescents, college, twentysomethings, adults, preconception, expecting, and postpartum mothers, and the seasons in between. Along my path to becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor and opening my practice, my personal experience guided me to Mind Body Spirit Release® with my practitioner, Dr. Tracy Southwick. Mind Body Spirit Release® is an energetic modality that reveals, releases, and renews the subconscious mind and nervous system on the physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental planes. I found this to be such a compliment to traditional therapy and pivoted my path to merge the two healing modalities together.

Mental health from a glance suggests that it is of the mind, and to many opinions, refers to the conscious mind. However, mental health is an extension of whole-body health and wellness, an integration of the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects that construct the whole person. Traditional talk therapy accesses the conscious mind, which is responsible for ~5% of our day-to-day functioning. This is referred to as a top-down approach because the conscious mind is the integration point between external experience and internal functioning. The conscious mind is largely comprised of awareness, logical and intellectual processes, and rationalizing. To access the conscious mind in an open flow state, our nervous system and subconscious mind must be regulated, suggestable, and influenceable.

The subconscious mind exists as the other 95% of our actions and reactions to life. The subconscious mind is ruled by emotions and imprints that influence important functional processes such as breathing, digestion, memory, thoughts, emotions, beliefs, attitudes, and intuition. These imprints are invisible strings, the presence of such is not always identifiable to the naked eye or conscious mind.

We have trained practitioners from all over the US, in Great Britain, Spain, France, Germany, Africa, Australia, Tasmania, Mexico, Singapore and Canada.

If you are outside of the US, you will be responsible for additional shipping charges for class materials. 

Students are responsible for downloading from Kajabi information they want to keep. Students are also responsible for notifying us if their contact info changes. Our learning platform and access to updated course information is for practitioners who maintain their certification. If we ever stop using Kajabi, we will notify all students and give sufficient time to download the information they want to keep. 

We provide many layers of support:

• Email access to our training staff. 
• A Kajabi community board where you can connect with other students, ask questions of teachers, and trade sessions with practitioners.
• A monthly support call on the first Monday of every month (except holidays) at 12 PM Central, with recordings archived in Kajabi.
• Regular newsletters with updates, upcoming events and important announcements.
• Occasional meet-ups where our teachers live and at conferences we attend, such as ECO by CellCore, where we sponsor a yearly happy hour.

The typical hourly rate is $175-$300+. Sessions typically last from 45-90 minutes, depending on the type of session.
