About

Who we are

Tim and Debra Sheehan have been in the healing arts practice for almost 50 years combined. Debra has 30 years of experience and Tim has been in the industry for 17. Debra’s and Tim’s  private practice is in Osceola, Ind. Tim also provides house calls. They founded BodyMatters, Inc., which provides bodywork, coaching services, and stress relief products for adults and children.  BodyMatters helps empower people to “awaken the healer within,” so they live happier, healthier, more creative lives on mental, emotional, physical and spiritual levels.

Why we do it

For Tim, his love of helping people feel better has always been his motivation for work. His goal is to bring out the best in people and gently guide them to resources in the “how to.”

For Debra, many years of studying helped her heal herself as she learned the various techniques to help others. Seven years ago she came upon HeartMath coherence building tools, which helped to  transform who she was and how she related to life. She found the tools to transform herself, moment by moment. As she learned how to use her heart to change her physiology and biology, she became less anxious, more confident and more intuitive. Debra’s personal relationships began to change and continue to do so.

She also studied some powerful energy healing tools, Internal Family Systems, Dr. Joe Dispenza’s work, Hakomi, Energy Codes  and The Body Codes to aid in the healing of unresolved unconscious patterns we all hold within.  This blocked energy can really influence who we are, what we experience and our ability to shift.

The Sheehans love to share what they’ve learned with others to watch them grow and unfold. They do it to see others’ authentic essence shine through to create the life of their dreams. As Tim and Debra continue to grow, they feel it is their responsibility to help others grow. When everyone does this, taking personal responsibility for their own lives, our families change,  cultures can change and society can become more heart-based!
