WHO AM I?


Ben Ralston is a therapist, healer, advanced Sivananda Yoga teacher, and writer.
His writings – about healing, personal development, spirituality, and life – have been read by over a million people and can be found on Elephant Journal, Rebelle Society, and various other portals online.
He has been teaching Yoga for 16 years and runs a busy international therapeutic practice from his home in rural Croatia.
His therapeutic work is based on healing trauma, and the tools he uses for this are varied – mainly RPT, Shamanism, energy work. He has also developed some of his own methods, particularly in the area of ‘resource state’ awareness, and boundary reconstruction.
He regularly runs retreats around the world combining Yoga and other energetic exercises with his therapy. He would love nothing more than to see you on one of these retreats, since he believes that this approach to personal development is really the only effective way of bringing love and peace to global human society.

Hi Ben,

Thanks for commenting on my blog! How nice that BC could connect us :)

Yes, things are still going in the right direction, whatever that means! I'll add your blog to my RSS and will catch up on some of your recent posts shortly. :)

I am learning about Reiki because I want the most efficient way to heal myself and others. Maybe RPT is what I should be learning.

Hi Portia,
I studied Reiki and Bio-energy healing before finding RPT. Reiki is certainly not a waste of time: you'll maybe be a better Reference Point Therapist having studied it - but I would definitely recommend RPT.
Love, Ben

Hi Lakshmi,
Thanks for you connecting.
I love Sivananda. That organization trained me, and it's where I met my wife (whilst training to be a Swami!)
With love, Ben
