The Healing Crisis

The Immune System
Your Immune System can be likened to an army that fights off foreign substances (chemical toxins, viruses, and bacterias) which invade its space. When your inner army/immune system is activated, such symptoms as fever, fatigue, topical outbreaks,... may be exhibited. The typical psychological reaction towards these symptoms is to label and judge them as a "Crisis" if not a disease... when in actuality, these are signs that ones “inner army” is doing its job to purify and thus promote "Healing" in the body. While most western medicine typically suppresses these symptoms with drugs, the toxins (most drugs are - toxic) remain to accumulate within the tissues. Over time, these tissues can hold only so much of this stuff before the body systems become overwhelmed, stagnate, and shuts down (i.e. dies).

We also have something of a spiritual energetic immune system which helps process and clear such "symptoms" as anger, fear, depression, sadness,... that are stuck within our mental and emotional bodies. Yet, if we accumulate too much of this "stuff", and these conflicts, issues and emotions are not cleared, over time they may become suppressed deeper and deeper into the subconscious... to be even more stubbornly lodged within the matrix of our energy fields, chakras, or even within our central core. The varied energetic and mental bodies can only hold so much of this stuff before they too are so overwhelmed, they will eventually stagnate and shut down. Their may not be a definitive emotional or mental death (like what occurs to the physical body) but it certainly could feel like it to the soul who is experiencing this first hand.

People often ask me why they need so much healing. If we consider that the ego-mind-will (subject to the soul consciousness) has been suppressing all of these emotions and thought patterns, not just for a few years in this one life, but lifetimes in many different bodily forms... then you see Spirits perspective. And when this one life ends (when your body dies) all this “stuff” created by the soul consciousness and ego-mind-will, gets dragged over into the next incarnation, recreated over and over again (until finally cleared). But you do have a choice - heal it now or wait till another lifetime... in either case, it's not going to magically clear up all by itself (such things cannot be ignored forever).

Facing the Abyss
“The Dark Night of the Soul”

We may think (and hope) that by ignoring or distracting ourselves from unpleasant situations and feelings, they will just go away... and from our conscious awareness they may (for a time) but not from our subconscious nor from our energy field. At some point, everything that we have stored away into the deep recesses of our being comes out and must be dealt with - this is our karma.

When the “Healing Crisis" on these other levels have been held at bay for waaaay too long, it eventually devolves into “The Dark Night of the Soul". The phrase “Dark Night” is the mild description - it’s more like the “Dark Season”. Where the “Healing Crisis” may last only a few hours or days, the “Dark Night of the Soul” may last weeks, months or even years. And just like the Healing Crisis, this “Dark Night” is one way Spirit is trying to help us confront and process out our “stuff”.

If the soul has been carrying this garbage for eons, there comes a time when the soul (in the "Bardo" state between lives) says "Enough ! This next life we are going to process and clear as much of this stuff out as we can". Such a life time may not be pretty or fun in any sense of the word - it may actually be a sort of Purgatory (or Hell) on earth (where all sorts of mean and nasty things happen) but if the soul hopes to be free of its baggage, it must go through this purification.

The healing work accelerates this purification by digging into the hidden nooks and crannies of your subconscious, energy fields, chakras, and central core... dislodging and bringing up to the surface your ego resistances, suppressed issues, and negative energies (and whatever else is stuck in there). You may become conscious (or possibly re-live) some past life memories and associated unpleasantries (traumas). When this happens, your ego-mind will likely interpret and judge these feelings and memories as a BAD thing, and will try to suppress it yet again (which is how this stuff got down there in the first place). The energy work will assist you in this purification process so that you don't hold on to this junk, but completely let it go.

If you did not purge this stuff out, it would continue to (subconsciously) run your life... and continue to eat you up (from the inside-out). Within the context of the healing work, when you are sensing these unpleasant feelings, thoughts, or memories, it's a sure sign they are on their way up and out of you (verse remaining stuck, hidden inside). When this purification process is occurring, do not listen in fear to the ego-mind and give up on the healing work (in fact, this may be a good time to do even more). It is often at the very pinnacle of a major breakthrough that the most negative stuff appears. If you allow your stuff to stop you from continuing the healing - it wins, you lose.

As human beings, there are so many things we have a hard time doing – working through our stuff is one of them. This is why Spirit has brought you this healing work. As long as you are willing, we will help you move through this stuff as fast and easy as possible – but it is your choice to do so or not.
