Not the perfunctory, business-like shoulder-clasp that you might expect in a Swiss medical clinic, but a full, heart-to-heart \u2018it\u2019s really good to see you\u2019 kind of hug.<\/p><p>Over the course of that week, we witnessed this welcome hundreds of times as new people arrived and were put at their ease. It was clear that everyone felt at home.<\/p><p>Our expectations of Swiss timekeeping were not disappointed. The appointments ran like clockwork, yet nothing felt rushed. The physicians and therapists who work at the clinic were easy-going and friendly, ready with a relaxed smile whatever their busy schedule might look like. Children were honoured guests and rainbow stacks of coloured pencils and sheaves of paper sat in neat piles, ready for a burst of spontaneous creativity.<\/p><p>\u2018What was the secret of remaining so open and calm in such a busy clinic?\u2019 we pondered.<\/p><h5>Being fully present in every moment was the answer that came back.<\/h5><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5232af9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"5232af9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=L_CoXFAvsMc&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2736997 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2736997\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"pl-5935\" class=\"panel-layout\"><div id=\"pg-5935-0\" class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" data-style=\"{&quot;background_image_attachment&quot;:false,&quot;background_display&quot;:&quot;tile&quot;,&quot;full_height&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;lsow_dark_bg&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;bottom_margin&quot;:&quot;40px&quot;,&quot;cell_alignment&quot;:&quot;flex-start&quot;}\" data-ratio=\"0.61803398\" data-ratio-direction=\"right\"><div id=\"pgc-5935-0-0\" class=\"panel-grid-cell\" data-weight=\"1\"><div id=\"panel-5935-0-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"0\" data-style=\"{&quot;background_image_attachment&quot;:false,&quot;background_display&quot;:&quot;tile&quot;}\"><div class=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\">Ukrainian families cushioned themselves on the generous sofa, sharing stories and entertaining each other\u2019s children between appointments.

Worry about husbands, families, homes, meaningful careers they\u2019d been forced to abandon, not knowing when or if they\u2019d return. Worry about their prospects, how they and their kids would fit into this new country with its strange customs and a language they were doing their best to understand. But trauma and worry were not their only companions. Though shoulders were heavy, and eyes were sometimes downcast, there was also a fiery, upright spirit, an earthy strength amongst them.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h5><em>These women were strong!<\/em><\/h5><p>They didn\u2019t want to be thought of as traumatized or weakened. They had come to us with the intention of feeling better, keen to restore peace to their hearts and bodies. It was exactly that spirit which aided their transformation. And it aligns with one of Heart Based Medicine\u2019s heart-held hopes \u2013 that all patients and their caregivers will one day meet as equal co-creators on a shared healing journey.<\/p><p>Dr Jan Bonhoeffer, founder of Heart Based Medicine (and dispenser of hugs) made a point of observing some of our healing sessions. He summed up the results in a few words: \u2018Today I saw six women enter your therapy room. And I saw six different women come out. They weren\u2019t simply more relaxed; they were completely transformed in just one hour.\u2019<\/p><p>Inside our therapy rooms, with the help of Google Translate, Fiona and Andrea heard stories of families divided, violence witnessed; long drives through the night to a place of refuge. \u2018Is it safe to cry here?\u2019 was a common question. Tears flowed, hugs were exchanged and lungful\u2019s of swallowed fear were released on the treatment couch as the energy worked its healing balm through our hands. Few words were spoken but our eyes communicated volumes.<\/p><p>Word soon spread throughout the clinic and into the wider community, and continues to reach more people.<\/p><p><img
