About the Course

The Inherited Release Method (IRM) is a trauma-informed healing process that works with the body, mind, and ancestral memory to clear what you were never meant to carry. Every one of us is shaped by more than our own experiences. Stress, trauma, and emotional patterns can be passed down through generations, not just through stories but through biology and behaviour. IRM blends the science of epigenetics with body-led energy work to address these inherited imprints at their root. Using gentle kinesiology techniques, we identify the emotions and beliefs stored in your body and trace them back to where they began, whether that is your own life, your family line, or beyond. Then, through acupressure, energetic mapping, and guided release work, we help the body let go of what no longer belongs there. For clients, IRM is a way to feel lighter, clearer, and more connected to yourself. For practitioners, it is a structured method that brings depth and precision to the work you are already doing. Here, healing is not about reliving the past, it is about releasing the weight of it so you can move forward free.

      IRM Psychic Development & Energy Masterclass

Meet the founder: Elizabeth Brown

I’m Elizabeth Brown, the founder and creator of the Inherited Release Method (IRM). My journey into this work began long before I ever called it a career — it started with my own deep questions about why pain, patterns, and family wounds seemed to repeat themselves, generation after generation. For over two decades, I’ve devoted my life to studying and practising bodywork, energy healing, kinesiology, shamanic traditions, and trauma-informed approaches. Along the way, I became an initiated Babaylan (Filipino shaman) and a teacher of ancestral medicine, blending my cultural roots with modern science and somatic practice. Through my own healing and the thousands of sessions I’ve held worldwide, I created IRM to bridge ancient wisdom with practical tools — helping people release inherited trauma stored in their body, mind, and spirit. My mission is simple: to guide others to reconnect with their body’s intelligence, to break free from the stories that don’t belong to them, and to remember that healing is not just for you, but for those who came before and those yet to come. I’m honoured to share this work with you and grateful you’re here. If you are interested in signing up to this course or have any questions, i would love to be in touch. Email me - [email protected]
