Anthony Lemme
…is an integrative health and longevity strategist, writer, educator, musician, athlete, father, spiritual adventurer, somatic detective, tonic herbalist, functional nutritional counselor, stress management specialist and trauma release facilitator.
He is the creator of Neurogenic Qigong (trauma specific qigong) and Integrative Trauma Release, a cutting-edge and profoundly effective, body-based approach to trauma resolution, stress management and resolving stubborn and bothersome somatic and energetic patterns of all kinds…
Integrative trauma release draws on the latest breakthroughs in neuroscience, trauma research and bioenergetics, along with time-tested traditional healing practices and Anthony’s own personal discoveries, to quickly free people from past traumas, stresses and patterns of all kinds, as well as the disruptive, debilitating and even disastrous effects they can have on our health, happiness, relationships and lives.
In a relatively short period of time, Anthony has created quite a buzz in the healing, medical, mental health and recovery communities for his astonishing track record in empowering and helping people considered “difficult” or “mystery” cases quickly reclaim their bodies, their lives and move from confusion, discouragement and pain to freedom, happiness and greater health.
A whole new world opens up when you feel safe, connected, comfortable and at-home in your own body. TRUE healing and transformation begins and the world changes from a place of dissatisfaction, disappointment or one of quiet and subtle little dangers everywhere, to a place of endless beauty and possibility…
Utilizing his 20 years of experience, his vast and ever-growing knowledge and understanding of the human body, mind and spirit, along with his knack for seeing what can’t be seen and getting to the bottom of things, Anthony has quietly helped thousands of grateful people who were formerly sick, stuck, frustrated, disconnected or knowing deep down that there had to be a better way, move to a much richer and joyful experience of life and an okay-ness with and ability to be in the present moment.
The fact that Anthony’s clients include doctors, therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, bodyworkers, healers, shamans, spiritual teachers, coaches, yoga and martial arts teachers, best selling personal growth authors and professional athletes says a lot about the work that he does.
In fact, Anthony has had as clients, regularly works with, and receives referrals from some of the most well-known and respected physicians, therapists, healers, coaches, alternative medicine practitioners, facilitators and spiritual teachers in the world.
Many people have tried to label Anthony a healer. Not one for labels to begin with but understanding that they are often useful and necessary, this is one label he humbly tries to steer clear from.
It is his firm belief that although we absolutely need each other to heal and that one individual certainly can and often does play an important and necessary role in the healing of another, it is ultimately our own sincere desire and ability to reconnect with and activate our own innate intelligence and healing capacity that “does the job.”
Simply put, even with the help of a supportive community or a skilled practitioner/facilitator, it is ultimately the body that heals itself or the individual who gets in touch with and makes peace with what can’t be healed, which as it turns out, is actually a form of healing!
There is a world of difference between a cure and true healing. True healing often does not look how we initially envision it and involves transformation and moving to a greater state of wholeness and integration, “the next level” so to speak. Which, incidentally, is unique and unknowable to each individual from their current perspective and understanding.
That being said, Anthony considers himself a facilitator, guide, educator and strategist.
The road Anthony has traveled to achieve such a high level of intuition, understanding, proficiency and success in helping others heal themselves has definitely been a long and arduous one.
It would take an entire book to retell such a story and this is not the place for such a long and intense narrative. If you ever have the chance to ask him, do so. It’s quite an interesting tale.
The long and short of it is that Anthony went from being an incredibly healthy, happy and successful person in his twenties, working a great job, traveling, hanging out with all kinds of amazing people, playing drums for a band on the verge of a record deal, racing mountain bikes and getting ready to compete in his first triathlon to a place of total darkness.
That dark period of his life included a severe spinal and head injury, seizures, cognitive impairment, major weight loss and muscle wasting, chronic fatigue, depression, severe and mysterious allergic reactions, environmental illness, extreme pain, addiction and a near death experience where he died and had to be brought back to the world of the living after his heart failed.
He ended up going down and surviving the often dark and dangerous roads of the legal, medical and mental health systems, as well as the often confusing world of alternative medicine and the even more confusing and all too often ridiculous world of healing, with it’s pseudo-science and rainbows-and-unicorns, wishful, New Agey promises.
Anyone who truly knows Anthony well, knows that he is an interesting force of a human being to be sure. He possesses a deep and unflinching calmness, a directness, a persistence and an ability to see many things at once and how they interact. This allows him to be a true alchemist who can easily hold space with and turn the most heinous things into something nourishing and good.
It is in that spirit that Anthony began his healing journey, got to the root of his symptoms and conditions, transformed himself and slowly came back into the world as person who knows what it is like to lose control of his body, mind and life and what is takes to reclaim them and begin the process of true healing, finding out one’s deepest truth and living from it.
He also has a strange knack for attracting some of the most powerful, intelligent, compassionate and accomplished people and teachers one could ask to meet and has worked with, learned from and been mentored by some of the best.
Anthony is a dedicated practitioner and student of qigong, Taoist healing/longevity practices, yoga, meditation and Zen as well as a self-admitted research geek.
