The Healing Process

Healing Work is a process, not a set destination.
Just as in life, there is no finish line.

When someone asks "how much healing work do I need?" - it's like asking "where does the horizon end?" Because the world is round, the answer is not linear but circular. There is no completion point - it's about flowing and surrendering into the moment... one moment after another moment after another... all stepping stones on your human journey - your "life path". Healing work (just like your life) is this ongoing process of surrender that continues for as long as you live. You may only need the intervention of a healer for a relatively short period of time or for the rest of your life – who knows, but as long as you live you will always be healing.

"When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor.
It's to enjoy each step along the way." Wayne Dyer

Many people are under the impression that healing is a one shot deal. You get a treatment and “Shazam!” you are healed. We see something like this demonstrated in the life of Jesus where (according to legend) he simply touched someone who was blind or crippled... and “Bang!” they could then see or walk. From these wondrous stories, we are quick to think that this is what a healing should be, and we are quick to compare all other healers against these extraordinary examples. This is totally understandable – the human mind wants an easy and quick fix to every problem. Its hard for us to stand in ambiguity, contradiction, conflict, uncertainty, or any sort of tension for any length of time before thinking “this is not working” and we go on to the next “new thing” or trend. Our attention span for anything uncomfortable is very brief.

I do believe Jesus did these healings that were attributed to him (though I don’t think he was the only one in history who did such things). However, I also think that history has set Jesus - and all those who followed him - in an unrealistic light. Of course I think his life (to the extent that it was accurately recorded) was a great example for us all to emulate, but I also think his healings were taken out of a larger context, and as it is spoken of today, they do not give us the complete representation of what “healing” is really “All” about. Sure, the blind saw and the cripple walked... these are physical healings and they do occur even today. Yet we are more than physical beings and we have more than just physical ailments that need healing. There are many levels of our being just as there are many levels of healing (and the physical is the most superficial of the bunch). If one needs just the physical healing, then “Shazam” “Bang” that would be it and off you go. But the physical illnesses that most people present are rooted in the soul – and the soul is another matter all together. Healing of the soul took time, even in Jesus’ day and age. This was not an instantaneous event, even by Jesus’ standards and abilities. So I reiterate... Healing, especially deep soul healing - is a process. It takes time, but it is time well spent for it does affect all other levels of our inner reality and outer life. Consider: our souls are eternal. If it took your soul lifetimes and lifetimes and lifetimes to create the distortions and separations and issues that you now find yourself in, common sense says that it would take some time and lots of processing to undo. Don’t be in such a rush to leave before the miracles can happen.

A lot of the healing occurs when you are standing in ambiguity, contradiction, conflict, uncertainty and tension - this is integral to the healing process, though you wouldn’t think it (nor want it) to be so.

Jesus said “follow me and take up your cross”. What does that mean?
When a person is going through their “healing process”, they are weighted down with the density and burdens of their karma... dropped into the dark holes of their shadowy unconscious... faced off against the walls of their limitations....
(Hardly a description of something pleasant or nice).

And these burdens and holes and walls are uncomfortable places to be in, no doubt. One is confronted with all the ambiguity, contradiction, conflict, uncertainty and tension that already exists in the soul. Its not that Spirit is making you feel things that are not within you – quite the contrary – everything you feel is sitting inside you somewhere buried within your subconscious and energy field (among other places). And many cases, the only way you are going to heal and be free of them is if you face and embrace them directly, and keep facing and embracing them until this “stuff” is transformed and dissipated.

Though this healing work will accelerate your processing (i.e. your "internal life journey”) many times over and beyond what one may normally experience in one life, healing does take time. It is very likely that you may not feel or sense anything occurring during some of the healing sessions. This is common at some stages along the path. At other times, you may feel like you are plugged into the universal wall socket. The range of experiences is virtually infinite (see Testimonials).

This is extremely advanced work that goes to the root causes of your condition - to the very highest, lowest, deepest and most peripheral levels of your energy and consciousness. Very few souls are consciously aware of everything that occurs on all these levels, least of all at the higher dimensions and in the subtle energy fields extending off the body. No matter, every session will affect everyone, whether you are consciously and spiritually aware or not. However, I have found that most women (generally) are more apt to have a heightened sensitivity (and receptivity) to this work, due in part to a greater attention they have given to their inner bodily, emotional and psychic awareness - in contrast to most men (in this westernized society at least) who are (generally) over-fixated on the physical and mental bodies and their respective planes of existence.

 Some people can experience a delayed reaction to the healing energies, not sensing any changes until a few days go by. If you look at how your entire week unfolds you may notice some subtle if not dramatic shifts. If you do not, don't worry... as they say “you can’t see the forest from the trees". Meaning, it's very hard to have a clear perspective or objective view of your own healing process and spiritual path (considering that you are in the midst of your own "stuff"). This is why others usually sense the changes in you before you do.

This work is cumulative - each subsequent session does build on and magnify the results of the previous session. This means that the more healing segments you do, the more healing you will receive - and the greater your results will be. I believe that if you only do one session, I am sure it will be of some benefit, maybe even to saving you from some unnecessary hardship, pain and suffering further on down the road. But if you want to derive the maximum benefits from this work, your persistence - by continuing on with the healing - is needed.

Your Truth
Due to the nature of my consciousness and spiritual energy (as I am working with you during the healing session) what is the "Truth" of your personal "reality" - including any "baggage" or "stuff" (i.e. "karma") you may have - will most likely be brought up to the surface of your conscious awareness and experienced (in one way or another) as it moves through your energy field... to be eventually released. Depending upon what kind and how much of this "baggage" you have, this movement may seem pleasant or unpleasant, but this baggage is part of your reality, and like it or not, you are personally responsible for it. These are the things that make up the curriculum for your life learning and healing process. This must be understood - I do not make you experience anything that is not already inside of you... I just assist you and your High Self in bringing it to the surface to be healed and cleared and released in a safer, faster and easier manner than if you did it alone.

This healing work is not about avoiding your inner reality. Rather, within the safe and sacred healing space created by Spirit, it is about uncovering, acknowledging,
releasing and removing lifetimes worth of:
hidden emotional buttons that keep us in reaction to life...
irritating psychic sore spots that make our lives uncomfortable...
dark subconscious shadows that sabotage our relationships...
attachments and addictions that control our lives and ruin our health...
submerged memories and secrets that trouble our dreams and keep us in fear...
resistances that are holding us in ignorance and denial....
All these things (and more) are festering under the surface of our energy and consciousness field, slowly and insidiously stealing bits and pieces of our passion and zest for life.
 Healing - especially deep and profound healing - may often bring on some “undesirable” side effects (to put it mildly). This is par for the course and must be understood within a larger context. For instance, as a result of soul retrieval work - that which was once ours and is returning to us to be integrated - may not feel pleasant, easy, light or acceptable. In fact, that which was once ours may even have been considered (at the time) “undesirable”... before we rejected and projected it from out of our being into the furthest reaches of time and space. However we judge it, these so called "undesirable" aspects of our soul were (and still are) an important part of us, parts that we are responsible for, and parts that also hold special learning opportunities.

These rejected and projected aspects - generally called our "shadow" selves - can just as easily be enlightened or dark. We can reject the good in us just as easily as we can reject the (so called) bad, but (like it or not) it is all a part of our inherent make up and truth of who we are. In any truth – even a truth that is uncomfortable – therein, through or beyond it lay our power, our love, our treasure, our hidden gifts. If we dispense with the judgment, we see that it is all a gift from God (even such feelings as anger, grief, sadness, depression, etc). As they say, a smile is a frown turned upside down. As you receive the healing work and begin to process your “frowns” (your “stuff”), you will (later) be able to smile even that much more.

The more we can accept and embrace...
all of our Sadness - the greater our Joys
all of our Anger - the greater our Life Force
all of our Fear - the greater our Courage
all of our Darkness – the greater our Light
all of our Limitations – the greater our Triumph
all of our Walls – the greater our Ascension
all of our Shadow – the greater our Soul

This is what the crucifixion and resurrection is really about.

Sometimes the truth of our being is fiery, bold and angry....
Probably because of its potential as being such a destructive force, the energy of anger has been quite maligned in our society. It has been more suppressed, repressed, misjudged, misunderstood, misdirected, misused and feared more than about anything else, yet anger in its pure form is just the raw and primal creative life force. The pure energy of anger is not bad in and of itself, only in how we use or abuse it. (Remember Jesus in the Temple with the money changers?). In my opinion, suppressed anger is the # 1 emotional energetic cause of cancer (and many other illnesses) in our culture. 

Sometimes the truth of our being is inward, quiet and sad....
We expect of ourselves to always have a happy face on, that we are always positive and strong - and if we don’t there is something wrong. There is much in our personal history, let alone our world history - that we could and should be sad about. Many of us have had terribly painful experiences that have wounded us deeply, secretly, inwardly... and still we may feel helpless or powerless about them. We have a right to feel sad, angry and even cry. It is a part of who we all - our truth... and that part holds a special gift, a lesson, some wisdom, a deeper insight into being human.

Crazy Wisdom
As long as we are living within the walls of our subjective sense perceptions... and as long as we interpret and translate that data according to our conceptual understanding, we can never be 100% certain that we have the corner on the whole truth. What is perceived or interpreted by us as “bad”, to Spirits more encompassing perspective may be considered as “good”. One word for this is “Crazy Wisdom”.

Almost as if Spirit sees us and our lives
not just the way we see it but in reverse,
like the negative of a photograph or an image in a mirror...
not just in black and white but in all the living colors,
like the full spectrum of the rainbow...
not just in one moment but in all time,
forward and backwards, fast and slow,
not like we see ourselves but upside-down,
inside-out, turned around and about...
like a house of mirrors in the carnival of life.

And who’s to say one of those perspectives is more or less valid or real than another. Since the healing work comes from the unlimited all encompassing perspective of Spirit, it will help us see and know the way Spirit sees and knows – from this place of expanded reality and truth.

From our subjective opinion, of all the things we experience, some we consider negative and some we consider positive. But just because our judgment considers it so, doesn’t mean that it is ultimately so. No matter what (in my opinion) happens on this earthly plane, everything is orchestrated by our collective Higher Selves and God for a reason that is waaaay beyond our conscious knowing or controlling. There are no accidents... but if by chance there are, those accidents (and all else) are being used by Spirit to assist us in evolving, to working out our karma, and to learning the lessons of life (to name just a few). Likewise, this healing work is offered to you as an alternative - a "window of opportunity" – an “intentional accident” if you will... one that is designed to accelerate your healing process. That it acts to quickly uncover some of the unpleasant things that are lodged within your ego-mind-body-energy field is a blessing. It may not always feel that way in the moment, but if you do it long enough, you will see and know that I am telling the truth. This work is designed to peel you, layer by layer, bit by bit, till what remains is closer to (if nothing but) your Essential Self - Love and Light.

This work does what life does to us, except in a more direct intentional and expedient way. In order to go deeper and closer to that core, sometimes we must go through parts that are rotting away, dark, smelly and not very pretty. You may see, feel, and intimately become reacquainted with what that is, or it may just vanish like a puff of air. Whatever happens, continue to remember that “this too shall pass”, as you move closer to your goal - your inner love essence and God Self. And if you discontinue the formal healing session, you will have (at the least) opened up to a level of your self that you had not accessed before.
