What is Spiritual Healing?
Through no real fault of our own, I believe we have been programmed from birth to take much for granted. We live and love in the most incredible formthe human body! The design is awe striking. Yet, most of us do not realize the power of the human body. To me, it is part of the trinity: mind, body, and spirit.
The Trinity
The trinity consists of the three powers that make us who we are. The mind. The body. The spirit. They are three energetic bodies designed to function as one. When one breaks down, all are affected. When a physical ailment occurs, in today’s society we have a tendency to treat only the body. We rarely question the illness or the root of the illness. We just want to fix it. So we go to a doctor and ask him or her to fix us.
Modern medicine has come a long way, and through various procedures or medications, we can extend life longer than ever before. But what about the quality of life or the reoccurrence of the same symptom. What then? Too many times I have seen or heard of doctors saying "there is nothing we can do" or "we have no idea what caused this." Then, the ill person is sent home, usually with some kind of pain medication, and waits to die. Most people do die because they believe what they are told and think that is what will happen. When people do this, they give away their powertheir power to heal and understand their own bodies. These people shut out the mind and spirit and just deal with the body.
Our mind has the ability to see within the body, to truly know what causes dis-ease. The spirit is the God spark within all of us and knows how to heal what is afflicting us. When we work with mind, body, and spirit in harmony, there is no-thing that cannot be healed, if that is our deepest desire.
When I do remote healing, I try to do it from the highest level possible - the spirit level. When I am in communion with a person’s spirit, or God spark, whatever you call the spirit within, I work from the top down. Next, I go to the mind level to see what caused the illness, then on to the body to see where the illness manifests itself. Here I work to understand what is happening within the body and how to help it.
Many times the elementals and higher spirits come to my aid. They help to clear and cleanse problems within the body, releasing what no longer serves it. However, there is inner work to do on the part of the person who is ill. An awareness of this, an open mind, and an open heart are vital on the path to wellness.
Thought is Power!
Thought is energy. What we think, we believe. What we believe becomes our reality. We energize this reality by our thoughts. For example, say you are all dressed up and ready to go out. You stop to look in the mirror and think, darn I look good! Naturally, you do. And when you wear that thought out into the world, others will notice and compliment you on how you look. On the other hand, say you feel lousy about yourself and think you look awful. Others will notice that to, because you created the reality that you look awful.
Another example is the food we eat. If you believe a certain food will put ten pounds on your hips, chances are it will because you think it will. On the other hand, if you think that same food is good for you, then it has a calming effect on you. Now, imagine everything you eat is filled with 100 per cent of the vitamins that your body needs in that moment. If you truly believe it, your vitamin levels will rise. (This is a proven fact)
With that in mind, what about the power of our thoughts toward others. Thought is energy. If you think a pleasant thought about someone, they are bound to receive it. They may suddenly feel good but are not sure why. Your kindness of thought was felt by them. Have you ever suddenly turned into a really bad mood and did not know why? Someone may have projected their negative energy at you, and your body and mind received it.
Now when mind, body, and spirit are all working in harmony, we are able to feel who sent those good vibrations or the negative vibrations that left us a bit on edge.
Every-thing is affected by our thought energy: the plants, the rocks, the animals. The more loving our thought patterns, the more harmony will surround our life. It is time for us to start thinking from the mind of spirit.
What about when children are ill??
First I would like to honor Mati, a precious young lady who is currently dealing with a tumor behind her right eye. She is but 2 years old, still very much in her pristine state. She does not know ego, or judgement. For me, her lesson is very profound in understanding.
So why is she ill?
When young children take on an illness or dis-ease it more often than not it is a soul lesson for someone they have incarnated with (parents, siblings, etc.). So then, not only does the child need healing energy, the person who is in their life should equally receive healing energy and begin to heal that particular aspect of their life.
If you look at the illness, and what it is telling you in terms of life dysfunction, it should be easy to see in the personality of the friend or family member who is the target of this deep lesson that was created with love.
For example, the tumor is on the right side of the body. The right side represents our female/emotional/creative aspects. So someone in her life is having issues with this aspect. The tumor has chosen to grow behind the eye. The eye is vision. So this person is not seeing where his/her emotional blocks are. Because the tumor is not in the eye shows that the ability to see where these blocks are in the other person is available.
So what is Spiritual Healing?
It is healing at the trust level of illness. There is no magic or miracles associated with Spiritual Healing. Just pure intent and desire to go in and address that aspect of our self that is not inline with our spirit.
Modern medicine can prolong our ability to live with an illness or dis-ease, which provides ample time to go in and do some really thorough house cleaning. This is not something anyone else can do for you. There are those of us who go in and really see where the illness lies and on what level needs healing… but ultimately, the core responsibility lies with the one who is ill.
Because I have the ability to see the subtle body, the state of being that is physical and spiritual at the same time, I can see what is really happening to the subtle body. What I do is remove debris that is no longer needed or find the connection that is in dysfunction and why. I can go in and patch holes in the aura, remove sludge form the subtle body that has been built up thru time, but the core of the issue… it totally dependant on the person I work with.
This brings me back to; not everyone wants to be healed. In order to truly heal, you have to take a really deep and honest look at yourself. The mirror is not always an easy thing to face. Some people (from my own experience) are so petrified with the mirror that they would prefer to stay in dysfunction. That too is a valid choice.
We are all our greatest healers. Love and desire will set you free and allow the healer within to emerge!!
My own experience with Spiritual Healing
By the time I reached the age of 38 I was a very dysfunctional person. I was in constant illness. I suffered from severe depression for the better part of my life. My depression has been so bad I had attempted suicide many times starting at the age of 13 with the last attempt at age 38. I was eventually diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder with origins starting back in a highly abusive childhood.
On top of the regular depression, the winters were coupled with the disease SAD (Seasonal Adjustment Disorder).... intensifying an already depressed mind.
When I was 30 years old my gallbladder became diseased and I had to undergo emergency surgery to stop the pain my gallbladder was inflicting on me. I never stopped to ask myself what I may have done to cause this, I knew that pretty much every female in my family has donated their gallbladders to science, it was just my time.
By the time I reached the age of 31, without my gallbladder to alert me to my own personal dysfunction, my stomach had to take over with severe ulcers that screamed at me frequently.
Today, at age 45, I have been depression and suicide free for over 8 years. I have not had an ulcer attack in over 8 years and SAD turned itself into BLISS!
At age 38 I started to learn meditation. Not because I heard great things about it, not because someone told me I can heal myself and become healthy thru it, believe it or not it came from an event that happened with a Ouija board. (I started to share this story under "about lisa" click here to read it. It will take me a couple days to share the whole story... but this is a good start).
Meditation was the single hardest thing I ever tried to do. My mind was like a constant train wreck... debris scattered everywhere. Incoming thoughts that were out of control and had nothing to do with the chore at hand... trying to connect to the spiritual realm. 2 months of lots of frustration and disappoint finally got me where I wanted to be... in slight (and I do mean slight) control of my mind and able to concentrate for short moments in meditation. Several months later I met up with the one person I had hoped to connect with, a spiritual guide named Jill (and eventually one named Franklyn as well).
In the most loving and patient way, these two energetic beings helped me to explore the very core of myself. Ohhh my goodness I was a mess. More of a mess than I even realized. But what is even more amazing... something the oodles of therapists I had throughout my lifetime could have never seen... was what was at the core of my own dysfunction.
It really wasn't the sexually, physically and mentally abusive childhood that every therapist focused on. Altho I was indeed affected by it, it was not the core or root of what kept me in dysfunction. And without getting to the root of the problem, you cannot pluck the illness out of the body.
With the help of some of the most powerful sources in the universe, within my own healing meditations, I was lead to see quite clearly and rather painfully where the root of my dysfunction was. It was in my religion. Can you imagine that! I was raised a Catholic, everyone in town, in my family, that I was associated with as a child and into adulthood was Catholic. This religion defined me and my own religious/life views. The one thing that my Catholic religion reinforced every week at mass was that I was not worthy to receive the one thing I had hoped loved me no matter what... God. The Catholic communion prayer says: "Lord I am not worthy to receive you".
No therapist, with all their training and focus on "the facts" of a persons life could have ever realized this simple statement echoed in my whole being for 38 years.
This was the root of my depression. This statement told me to every week of my life created a sense of complete unworthiness within me. Being in a painful family setting simply reinforced this statement within me. I was indeed a worthless human being, so worthless that not even God could love me.
With a lot of pain and determination on my part and the spiritual realms part, we plucked that root and planted the real truth within me. God loved me so much and I really was a good person. They (the spiritual realm) showed me so many aspects of my own life (talk about seeing your life play out before your eyes) where I was kind and helpful to others. Small little things you would never even think about, was so important to the spiritual realm. I started to believe that hey, I am worthy of gods love, I am gods love incarnating and I do have value and purpose on this earth. The depression lifted (and has stayed gone).
If anyone understands the dis-ease SAD, it is a reaction that happens in the winter when the days are so short and dayLIGHT is very limited. Because I started all of my meditations with taking in light, I became so filled with my own light that SAD never affected me again.
It was not so easy dealing with my ulcer. I had no real idea how to deal with the stresses of life. I stored them within myself, obviously first in my gallbladder then into my stomach. All this negative energy that I was holding within myself had to grow into something. My body was screaming at me to start to change my ways, but I never even thought about that... until this time in life.
Again thru communing with my spiritual team, changing my own behaviors and attitudes with life, I learned how to correctly process the stresses of life. My ulcer subsided, my "quick to anger" attitude started to dissipate. I became healthy.
All of this not only affected me in a positive way, it was the greatest gift I could have given to my children. They are better because of it. They too started to change for the better and all because I changed.
I hope sharing this story has helped you in some small way.
May you feel Gods love in every moment.
Namaste,
Lisa
