Healing

Let's just begin by stating that the fundamental basis of healing is to bring ourselves to a point where we love ourselves unconditionally and when we reach that point of total love then that is reflected out into the world and thus the world is healed by us all healing ourselves.

This is the underlying principle behind all modes of healing and self realisation.

.If we could embody that point on every level of our being and in every cell of our body then we would have achieved 'enlightenment' 'being at one' 'the big is' etc.

However, knowing that and actually getting to that point are very different. The way is littered with obstacles, inventions of our human existence, the human condition.

The same is true with the law of abundance that we hear so much about these days. It is one thing to know that the universe is always providing for us and all we have to do to have that abundance is to ask, to manifest, to imagine it in the theatre of the mind etc. But if your mind has so many self limiting beliefs in it then you can sit and imagine your desires all day but another part of you will be sabotaging those manifestations. It also follows on that we first need to really know ourselves before we can manifest that which we truly desire. For example, the age old question what do you think you need to be happy? Car? Money? House? Children? No children? Partner? Great lovelife? etc. The list is endless and comprises so much that is outside of ourselves. Don't get me wrong, I like having a car, money, house etc. but I also realise that it wasn't them that made me happy. Being happy comes from the first point that I made, it's an inner knowing, an inner peace, knowing yourself and loving yourself just the way you are. That's unconditional love.

It is the ability to 'deal with' the obstacles on our path that decides the particular mode of healing that we may seek out. Each of us is individual, made from so many unique situations, ancestral patterns, characteristics etc. Therefore it could never be appropriate for one form of healing to serve us all to the highest good and it is rarely so that one form of healing will take us through all our obstacles

On my own Journey thus far I have used reiki to rebalance my own energies and help me feel connected to the flow of energy in the universe. Chi kung, tai chi and yoga to balance the energies and show me blockages and imbalances, mainly on the physical but not exclusively. Meditation to show me the way to my inner world and the beauty and distortions which lay within. The many different techniques from energy healing have helped me to balance on all levels, to find imbalances and blockages, bring them to awareness and transform them. The process of transformation is very important, it doesn't seek to make things 'wrong' or 'bad' because that only serves to drive things deeper into the shadows. Instead it opens up a loving nonjudgmental space for this stuck energy to express itself whatever form it takes be it anger, hatred, sadness, spite etc. By allowing the energy to move and express it is thus transformed and moves on its way. Remember that the normal state of energy is moving and flowing and it is only when energy becomes stuck that systems start to break down. This is the fore runner to dis-ease as we know it, the final manifestation into the physical, emotional or mental level of the human energy field. Winter sun

In conclusion, it is one thing to know intellectually the basis of our blueprint for eternal bliss and innerpeace but it requires much work, diligence, integrity, compassion and trust to bring it to bear and embody it in the very essence of our being. Ask for help in whatever form feels right to you along the way but remember that it is only you that can find and remember the inner peace that you already have inside of you.

The greatest gift you can give to the world is to heal yourself.

REIKI HEALING

Reiki is a great way to heal yourself on all levels whether it's for easing a headache on the physical level or bearing anger or sadness on the emotional level or helping to give greater clarity on the mental level or helping us to connect to our greater sense of purpose on the spiritual level. I live my life following the Reiki precepts and I meditate or self treat with Reiki most days because it gives me an enhanced connection to the universe and all that is. The greatest aspect of Reiki is that anyone and everyone can do it and that empowers us to be responsible for our own healing. Responsibility for yourself is one of the first big steps that we all take on our healing journey and usually one of the hardest. You would be most welcome to add some Reiki to your stay, either a treatment or an attunement or join me in meditation.  If you've not heard of Reiki and want to know a little bit more then read on.

A Safe, Natural, Hands On Therapy

What is Reiki?

Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) means universal life force energy in Japanese. Ray being universal and Ki being life energy. You may also have heard life force energy called Chi (China) or Prana (India/Yoga). Reiki was developed by Mikao Usui, a professor of theology, from rediscovered ancient teaching Sanskrit and after many years of study, research and meditation. It was brought to the west in the early part of last century and is passed on by Reiki Master to student.

There is no belief system attached to Reiki. It can be practiced by any faith or by anyone with no faith.

What is a treatment session like?

Reiki is a holistic complementary natural hands on healing system. Treatment involves drawing energy through the practitioners hands, which are placed on the body in different positions. It is not necessary to remove any clothing. I feel that the most important requirements are that the recipient desires the healing, has had the opportunity to ask any questions and feels comfortable with their surroundings. I recommend lying down on a treatment table with a warm covering with loose fitting clothes, some relaxing music, candles. If the recipient isn't comfortable with lying down then Reiki can be given in any position that is comfortable.

What can I expect from Reiki?

There are many different experiences during a treatment. Some people see bright lights, beautiful colours, feel very warm, feel cold, feel tingling or feel nothing at all! We are all different. A Reiki treatment is very relaxing and stress relieving. As Reiki is a holistic healing system it treats the whole body rather than just the symptoms. The symptoms are usually the last manifestation of an energy block that was created some time before and the Reiki energy works to serve us best by reducing the pain but also by bringing our attention to the original block. This can be done by either showing us life circumstances that mirror the original block and give us an opportunity to release the stuck emotions that caused the blockage in the first place.

Reiki works on all levels, physical, mental, emotional or spiritual. It always works for your highest good and will not bring you anything that you cannot deal with. It is both powerful and gentle. Reiki energy flows through the body like water gently cleansing little by little and yet powerful enough to remove the largest of objects if the flow is constant.

Reiki works in harmony with the body and promotes the body's natural ability to heal itself. It can reduce pain and inflammation.

Self realisation, self awareness, personal growth, spiritual growth, connection to your higher self or healing your inner child these all benefit from Reiki.

Reiki supports all forms of treatment both orthodox and complementary. Reiki energy can do no harm, has no side effects and cannot be overdosed.

What are the Reiki precepts?

The precepts are ways of approaching life that maximise our use of and alignment with the universal energy. They are as follows...

Pine cones in fire

For today only:

Do not anger  -  Do not worry

Be humble

Be honest in your work

Be compassionate to yourself and others

Everyone has different interpretations of the precepts, therefore I believe that the best approach is to meditate upon them and see what unfolds within yourself as your truth.

Do not anger and do not worry, rather than being prescriptive advice about trying to bottle up real feelings that you are experiencing, I believe that the wisdom here is about living in the moment. There is no point to worrying about the past as it has gone and the future doesn't exist yet or at least it can be changed therefore the only moment that is really happening is now. There may be many things in the world that could cause us to worry or be angry but we will only add to the negative energy surrounding events if we get angry about them too. Your energy will follow your mind....do you really want all your energy to go into the negative aspects of your life and therefore to make them grow. Concentrate and focus on the positive and let the light in you grow....you can't banish darkness by concentrating on it, you have to turn on a light.

I'd like to make it very clear here that I am not saying that anyone should bottle up their anger and pretend that they are never angry.....that is the root of many long standing energy blockages. Anger expressed in a positive way is a very powerful energy.

Be Humble to me talks about being aware of our limitations as physical beings. If we are following our true path and living our life on purpose then everything in our lives is with divine order. If somebody comes to me for a healing then I allow it to come with out setting my own intentions because I could not possibly know what is the best for the person concerned, in fact I can't know everything that is happening that will affect my own life and to therefore to try and control it is arrogant. There is only one presence that can be all knowing and omni present and the Reiki energy will follow that path.

Be Honest In Your work talks to me about being truthful with yourself about everything. Sometimes we think we are being honest but we have lost the ability to be in tune with ourselves and to know what is really our essence because we have so many wounds and defences inside. To be honest in all we do is to take responsibility for all that we do because it's when we take responsibility that we have control over what is happening to us, we will always have choices in every situation.....you can't know which is the right one for you until you know who you truly are.

To be compassionate to yourself and others is about seeing and understanding the place of pain that others and yourself are coming from when we do something that is considered 'bad'. This is not about allowing somebody to walk all over you because that isn't being compassionate to yourself but it's about allowing us to see the truth and pain behind our enemies hatred, then armed with that knowledge we can choose another way of reacting other than just hitting back.

I'm very passionate about being compassionate to ourselves because there are too many souls in pain that bully themselves and create more pain. The deep wounds of ' I'm not good enough' are spread far and wide amongst the human race and I would personally like to see an end to it. We are all perfect beautiful light beings here on our chosen journey.

ENERGY HEALING

Energy Healing is an holistic approach to facilitating the return journey to health. It involves tracing the cause of any suffering through the physical and emotional symptoms to its roots deep within our psyche.

Our natural flow of energy always moves towards perfect health and well-being. However, when faced with difficulties in our life which we find too painful to accept we tend to hold this unresolved energy in our aura. This creates blockages in our energy field which then depletes our vitality and can lead to ill-health and suffering.

With the assistance of the hands-on skills of an Energy Healer, we can be guided into bringing these blockages to light and releasing them. This enables healing on all levels including physical health, emotional well-being, relationships and spiritual realisation.

The healer may also guide the client in a process of inner inquiry as to the cause of their condition. This takes the healing deeper and encourages the client in creating their own health and well-being.

 

"Healing is the process of bringing light and consciousness to those parts of our lives where we have blocked the flow of our life energy."

THE HUMAN ENERGY FIELD

We all have an energy field which consists of four dimensions; Physical, Aura, Intention and Essence.

Physical

Chronic disturbances on the mental and emotional levels create holding patterns in the body which lead to tension, ill health and disease. The roots of these are found in the cellular memory which can be accessed and cleared with Energy Healing.

Aura

There are seven levels and various chakras that make up the Aura. This is the dimension of our personality or ego and contains both the healthy and distorted patterns that we have acquired through life. A diseased condition exists here prior to manifesting in our physical bodies. This is the dimension where the majority of our healing is needed.

Intention

Our life purpose is held in this dimension. When we align our intention to truth, life flows with ease and Grace.

Essence

The state of pure, original Being. The impulses of Essence expressing in life are often partially distorted or veiled by our ego self. As we go through the journey of healing, essence is revealed more fully in daily life.

 

"The Human Heart is the bridge to bring Heaven to Earth."

Human Energy Field

THE SEVEN LEVELS OF THE HUMAN AURA

First level - Etheric

Matrix upon which the body tissue is formed. Healing is becoming fit and strong.

Second Level - Emotional

Feelings about ourselves. Healing is having Unconditional Love for the self.

Third Level - Mental

Logical mind. Healing is creating positive thought forms.

Fourth Level - Astral

Record of all past experiences, including relationships, childhood and past lives. Healing is Unconditional Love for others.

Fifth Level - Template

Divine Will and Structure. Healing is gaining a sense of Truth and Purpose.

Sixth Level - Celestial

Divine Love. Angelic Realm. Healing is Unconditional Love for all of creation.

Seventh Level - Causal

Divine Wisdom. Healing is remembering the perfection in all of life.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A HEALING SESSION

There are three stages to a typical healing session.

Awareness

An initial period of discussion and evaluation to clarify the various issues to be addressed. The healer can also use Extra Sensory Perception (E.S.P.) to aid the client in the process of discovering the original cause of their condition.

Release

This involves hands-on Energy Healing using a variety of techniques. This can include phases of passively receiving energy work and possibly some cathartic emotional release (process work). This is normally conducted with the client lying down, fully clothed on a therapy table.

Integration

The session is completed with grounding and infusing positive energy so that the healing can be integrated into life. The healer may also share any guidance received during the session.

Celestial Healing

This is also known as angelic healing and it takes place on the 6th level of the human energy field, the realm of the angels. The human energy field works from the outside inwards. Many people imagine that the aura is beamed out from the physical body but it is in fact the other way round, the physical body is manifested from the previous energy levels. Therefore a healing on the 6th level encompasses pretty much everything. It doesn't get involved in the childhood wounds or the drama of our lives or any of the astral paraphernalia. The angelic realm is about looking straight past all of that right through to the perfection that is there at the core of everything. By doing this and sending energy with it, blockages and distortions can just lift away. Morning red sky

The reason that we don't use this healing all the time is that sometimes the woundings can't be let go of until there has been some conscious change whether that is from a healing or from your own life progression. If there has been a big release during a healing then a celestial infusion is used to fill the gap left with soft pink angelic love which helps the healing to be fully integrated. From my observations the time for integration lasts up to 3 days, the same time that it took Jesus to resurrect.

There are many different angels which can be called in to help with certain situations. Here are the main ones that I use

Archangel Michael - the warrior angel that brings courage, strength and protection with his blue flame sword that can cut through negative attachments. He is the protector of humanity and his feminine aspect is Faith.

Archangel Jophiel - the Illuminator who brings wisdom by clearing the fog from the mental levels by his bright light just as the sun burns off the mist from the lake. He gives pure knowing that aligns the mental body with the higher self which is particularly helpful around issues of self worth and self esteem. The feminine aspect is Christine, like the Christ mind.

Archangel Chamuel - The Pink Flame of Love, brings warming and nourishing tenderness and compassion which soothes the emotional body. The flame burns and transmutes the negativity of the heart and returns it to balance. The feminine aspect is Charity.

Archangel Gabriel The bringer of harmony and purification during big changes. He guides us by dissolving fear with his trumpet fanfare of glad tidings of joyful awakenings. The feminine aspect is Hope.

Archangel Raphael - the angel of Healing with his emerald green ray. He is the physician of the angelic realms and the inspiration for us healers. He is peaceful but with the ability to cast out demons. The feminine aspect is Mother Mary.

Archangel Zadkiel - The Violet flame that transforms through forgiveness transmuting negativity and allowing us to let go which brings greater freedom. The feminine aspect is Amethyst.

Inner Child Healing

Our Inner Child is a very important part of our Self and the recovery of all aspects of the Inner Child allows us to realise our true creative potential.

As children we rely on our parents for love and security, without being cared for by our parents the human child will die very quickly. This means that if we perceive that we have displeased our carers at any time when we are young and vulnerable then we have put ourselves into danger of being uncared for and therefore dying (ceasing to exist). it is this fear that blocks any parts of our Self which produce perceived disapproval in our carers. As dependent human beings it is essential to our survival strategy that we behave as such. However, as we grow older our needs and our perceptions change but the underlying patterns of behaviour that we have gotten into have become so habitual and programmed into us that we no longer realise that we are behaving in structured ways. That is until we realise that 'something' isn't quite right and that we continue to 'react' to certain stimuli in a way which isn't not logical or desired.

Orange butterfly Inner Child Healing helps to shine a light onto the old forgotten circumstances that led us to the beliefs that structured our lives and from that place of illumination we can reparent ourselves. We can allow the child within us to be fully present in all of their beautiful wonderment and glory. It is the child inside of us that shines out our creative light, that looks in wonder at the flowers, that splashes through puddles, that plays with mud pies and writes stories and poems, or paints pictures or sings out loud and dances like no-one is watching.

Once the child is released from the self imposed cage of 'do's and don'ts' we can truly grow towards our limitless potential.

Healing is achieved by going to the times when stressful circumstances led us to block certain emotions, sometimes anger, sometimes joy but always those parts of ourselves that we felt had been disapproved of by our parents or our main carers. The human child is dependent on its carer for its very survival and therefore the need to please our carer comes from a basic instinct to protect our survival. At the base level we fear that if we displease our carer then we will cease to exist. If for example we are angry as a child and our parents tell us off for that (they disapprove) we quash that emotion in order to gain their approval but the anger that doesn't get expressed stays inside of us. The more that we repress our anger the bigger the stress factor we are carrying and eventually this stress will manifest as dis-ease. When we go back during a healing session we can see that we no longer need to hold onto these emotions in order to protect our survival, as an adult we are capable of making a different decision. As part of the healing our adult self acts as the parent for the child and gives permission for the child to express the blocked emotions whilst keeping a loving space so that the inner child feels safe enough. The whole process involves a lot of trust, love and compassion which is aided and enhanced by the healer.

Past Life Regression Healing

To truly know and accept something we need to have experienced it, then we can know it in its totality. Much of the time we can learn concepts and we know them intellectually on a mental level, however, the human energy field is made up of more than the mental level and therefore to fully embody a truth we must experience it on all levels. It leads to greater understanding, perception and compassion. It is from this place of greater understanding and compassion that we see more readily the perfection of all existence and from that 'knowing' we achieve inner peace and tranquility. We no longer struggle to change the world around us because we can see the perfection of it all. The world hasn't changed but it doesn't affect us like it did before, this is the state known as 'enlightenment' or the Buddha mind.

Past life regression is a great tool for coming to that place of understanding and compassion. We have experienced many lifetimes and the memory of them is stored within our body. Going into a past life with the aid of a healer allows the recipient to fully experience past events that will 'show' them something that is significant in their current lifetime. This then gives the experience from a total body point of view as opposed to the one level intellectualisation. Past lives also cycle between the two views that we would call 'victim' and 'perpetrator' giving us experience of both to bring us closer to realising that there is no right or wrong but there are just many aspects to all life. Scots pine cones in fire

Example.

Somebody who has a present day stalker, an ex who will not let go and oscillates between being nasty and trying to get back into her life. This had been going on for over 3 years and she had tried many ways to deal with the issue, talking, shouting, ignoring, police, solicitors etc. but it persisted. During a past life regression she found herself as a twisted old crone watching young lovers and muttering hateful thoughts, she could see how she had once been a young beautiful woman in love with her true love but he had told her one day that he didn't feel the same. The man was being honest and letting the girl go to find someone who would love her back but the young girl had been unable to accept this and she had grown bitter and twisted over the years, filling herself with poison until she literally became ugly and twisted but she still wouldn't let go of her hurt and she died in that state. This experience cannot be shown here totally in words because it would have been a full body experience to the recipient. The facts of the world didn't change but the recipient was able to see the cycle of life turning, she knew that there was nothing she could do to change how her stalker feels, he has made his choice just like she did as the old crone in her previous life. Maybe one day he will change his mind and make a different choice but she didn't need to be part of his experience anymore. She still sometimes sees the guy or gets communications but they no longer have any effect on her and we believe that they will gradually cease as he will not be getting the energy fix that he desires back from her. This is what past life experiences give us, the peace of mind that comes from seeing all sides of the coin and experiencing them as just life time experiences, no drama, no ego trips just experiences.

It has been likened to choosing a virtual reality that you would like to experience to shed some light on a particular issue currently holding you back in life, slipping on a virtual reality suit and diving into it, knowing that somebody is holding you safely and lovingly to guide you to the significant events and then to bring you back to full understanding. When we can view an issue from both sides it can bring us peace and that is one of the healing qualities of past life regression, as we have often already lived a life doing exactly what it is that we feel is being done to us.

Relational healing

We have a relationship with everything that exists. As I sit here on this chair I am in relationship to it, I am upon it and it is beneath me. Everything about the relationship is defined by my beliefs, I believe the chair is holding me up and that without it I would fall to the floor and so that is how my life is shaped. That is of course a very simple example of a relationship and the belief system that we hold but the same pattern is there for every relationship we have. You may have heard folk say 'we create our own reality' and this is what they are mostly referring to. Your belief systems shape your world. When you leap out of bed in the morning and stub your toe and think to yourself, oh no it's going to be one of those days, then that is most likely what you will get. You may think that you are just getting it right because you are so smart about these things but your thoughts are what created your day. Of course not all thought will manifest into physical reality so quickly so we haven't made the association between the two at a conscious level quite yet. Sometimes in life we notice that no matter what we think we don't seem to get the outcomes that we thought we would and this can quite often be due to belief systems that we have that have been there for so long and become so habitual that we don't actually consciously remember that we hold them. They have literally become part of our basic wiring or programming. This is where relational healing is very useful.

Pine tree branches A little like the Inner Child healing, the recipient with the assistance of the healer goes back to the time or place or person that they hold the belief about and from there the cords connecting the two are cleaned, allowing the truth of the relationship to be seen and felt according to the choice of the recipient. With inner Child healing we think of it as re parenting and with relationship cords we think of it as reprogramming. With both it is about allowing the old stuck energy to express itself in a safe loving environment which will lead to the energy lifting away to reveal the beautiful light energy of truth and essence.

From this place of truth and light we live our lives more fully, in the moment, as who we really are. That is the purpose of our life on this planet.

Some examples of core beliefs:

All men are bad and therefore I should avoid them

All women are weak and therefore I should be a man!

This person had huge issues with really trusting and letting go especially in the area of relationships with her partners. Although giving the illusion of being open and trusting she would only ever go so far with letting people in and was in fact running a huge control centre from her solar plexus, which would explain why she was always so tired! She associated the vulnerability of the feminine side with weakness and therefore totally denying her femininity which made her very rigid and masculine, logical and strong. The strength of the feminine is actually in the vulnerability therefore once the old belief about vulnerablity was exposed and released she could embrace her inner goddess. She had been plagued by lower back problems from an early age (12) mostly caused by rigidity of the muscles with the resultant muscle tension and spasms. Any weakness made her feel extremely vulnerable and in huge fear as her belief system was that if she relented one inch and let somebody in she would be swallowed up as a person and cease to be. This is in fact a very core human belief that we all have at our centre, it is the belief that keeps us separate from each other and away from the wholeness of the divine. We believe that if we become one then we will lose our identity and cease to exist. As you can see from this brief example the potential for self limiting belief systems is enormous but the good news is that you don't have to do it alone and the more you travel down this path the easier it becomes to spot the beliefs at work. Meditation is a very useful tool for promoting self awareness and it is self awareness that will lead us to our own truth.

Sound healing

In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God" (John 1:1).

The entire Universe (Uni-verse, one voice) can be expressed as sound and in fact when we use sounds to represent energy we cut through the limitations of using words. Sound is not just 'heard' by our ears but it is felt by the entire aura. Sound healing is a powerful way to rebalance, resonate and align the chakras through toning them with their particular sacred vowel sounds. If you have ever meditated using the Ohm mantra then you will know how easily it cuts through everything and brings you to oneness.

Sunset over the lake

Sound can also be used to directly express stuck energy within the human energy field and provide a means of expression and thereby release. Energy can manifest in many different forms and the human voice is the perfect instrument to carry all those forms of expression whether by the healer or the client.

One of the benefits of using the human voice to express energy via the voice is that there is no structure that needs to be adhered to, we can babble like a baby or swear like a trooper or tone with set mantras or anything that we feel like. With such diversity and no set structure the mind cannot so easily interfer with the healing process or get in the way of releasing ourselves from the limitations of the ego mind.

Quite naturally there are no right or wrong sounds and we can use this to our advantage.

Free distance healing via crystal healing grid

I remember during my illness with cancer just how overwhelmed I was by the amount of love and consideration that was shown to me. People I hardly knew or didn't know at all would send me a card or some flowers or offer to assist me with school runs and shopping trips. It meant so much to me that I could tangibly feel the amount of love that was lifting me up above my illness, there was so much light out in the world and it was shining at me and through me, I felt blessed and I still do. Now is my time to reflect that light back out into the world.

Bellflower When a member of my immediate family and a close friend became ill I set up a healing grid to send them healing light. A healing grid works by having all the messages and intentions written or ascribed to objects placed within the grid and the actual grid is then made from crystals placed strategically around the objects. Everytime I meditate or do a healing the grid is fired with healing light and the people included in it receive some healing themselves. In fact everytime I look at the grid it triggers my intention and thereafter the healing response.

With all this in mind I set up a healing wall where I pin photos of anyone who would like to receive distance healing via my healing grid. A distance healing is given for each person on the wall and after that every time I walk past the wall I will be reminded of those people and the healing intention will be triggered again.

The grid is also fired every Monday evening during my mediation group meeting when we focus loving energy onto the wall via the healing crystals.

Frosted lily of the valley berries

Anyone can send me a nomination for the healing wall, all I need is the recipients name, the intention for the healing and a photograph to pin on the wall. Recipients are kept on the wall for 6 months but they can be renominated. The contents of the wall are kept secure and private.

If you would like to to nominate someone then contact Sara Gardner via the contacts page.

Nominate yourself as there is no greater gift to give to the world than to love yourself enough to heal yourself.
