What is Energy Healing? Here are 5 tips to start learning.

If you are reading this, you are probably curious about Energy Healing.

And what I’d ask you is,  “What is your own particular experience?”  Because Energy Healing is an Experiential that is unique to each person.

A subtle feeling of vibration in the air?  Or a touch that infused you with what feels like energy healing?  Have you seen auras that are colors or fields of energy?  Or perhaps felt an energy in the room without seeing anyone or anything?

Energy Healing

 

Most of us have experience these things, especially as children.  After all, the world is made of energy.  In Quantum Physics it is known that nothing is actually solid, but rather energy.  Physical atoms are made of of vortices of energy that are spinning.  We are each made with our own unique blueprint that contains structure but also flow.   When we are young, our senses are open, and we perceive all types of things.  Including living energy for many.  But as we get older, we are told how to think and identify things.  Our brains become wired to live in a world where we can feel most connected, and where we speak the same language.  But there is a Universal language that goes beyond the words we use.  And in that-everything is interconnected and alive.

Anyone who is interested can bring awareness to Energy Healing.  But it takes an open mind.  The most important skill for this is to listen with a curious mind, to feel with mindfulness something new.   A few things one might try are:

  1. Look around trees.  They have so much light that emanate from them.  Soften your gaze.  Listen.  Or if you are more of the type of person who senses things physically- feel the tree.  Trees always share their energy.  Maybe that’s why there are so many tree huggers!
  2. If you have a friend who is open, have them stand in one place.  Put your hands in front of you, and while you walk toward him/her, just feel.  Stay open, and bring awareness to your internal process.  There are different levels of energy consciousness in the human energy field.  You will learn to feel different things the closer or farther you go.
  3. Ask you guardian angel or spirit guides to dialogue with you.  When your Higher Self is ready to ask from the heart, these beings of Light are always at hand.
  4. Study Quantum Science.  If you are an intellect, read and explore.
  5. Take Classes.  There are schools like, “The Barbara Brennan School of Healing“, classes in Reiki, Seraphim Blueprint etc… that will teach you the tools you need to become more self-aware.

Working with Energy is amazing.  When one is ready to meet and adventure in new consciousness, they can’t help but to be changed by new experience.  Most people I know who have a taste of spirituality this way, follow the path. Why? The mind is freer and the heart more joyful when it opens up to the Divine. Because there is truth in opening up to God and the openness of Unity, Love, and Peace. Once we know this, we feel renewed.

If you have any questions,  please look at Barbara’s book, “Hands of Light”.

Spiritual Healing Columbus With Mindfulness

What is Spiritual Healing Anyway?

In the “Now” time, I find this term “Spiritual Healing” to relate to the mind, body and sprit connection.  Therapists who do this type of work are often more interested in a holistic model where the greater whole is living in each individual. It is the birthright of each person to self-realize God as a Human Being. And every single one of us has the potential to tap into our “Inner Physician” as coined by Dr. John Upledger.

From my experience, this is a little similar to older version of faith healing.  But healers these days actually study energy consciousness in a different way. Often, people will hear about the aura. That is based on a chakra system developed in the Ayurvedic model.  The first level of energy at the first chakra metabolized the physical energy, and it’s development aspect is trust. The second level relates to feelings about the Self, Creativity, and Sexuality.  The third is the mental field.  When it is clear, we think clearly. The fourth is the heart and our relationships. The fifth deals with speaking one’s truth.  The sixth is unconditional love, And the seventh is our connection to God.  There are various models with different interpretations, but these are the general principals.

What I find in the best Spiritual Healing Therapists or Practitioners is a great sense of Presence. What this means is that they are self aware through their own personal work.  And they also have a Higher Sense Perception of Energy Consciousness. They know how to listen to the human energy field, and they also have the tools to know how to respond to areas that clients would like to be healed. When a powerful healer is in the room, you will often feel a sense of peace and also neutrality. But mostly each healer has their own journey which brings out a unique set of qualities in which they can share with people.

Some healers are naturally talented.  Others have studied and grown.  When I became interested in doing healing work, I researched schools.  I knew I had something, but it had not been uncovered yet.  I made a decision and decided to do 8 years of study at the Barbara Brennan School . At the time, Barbara’s book, “Hands of Light” was popular. When I read it, I found it to be relatable.  And I was so excited to meet her and meet others who had like mind. So off I went for the Professional 4 years and advanced studies.  It was a powerful time for me of challenges and transformation.

I am not saying that all healers have to do the same, but I know that the school helped me to move into my creativity, my successes, and into my light.  But if you are interested in finding out more about spiritual healing, look up healers and call for a free 10 minute interview. I know that I offer that. Because it is important to feel a connection between you and the person you are working with. Sessions can be held locally, or long distance.

Spiritual Healing is amazing.  It touches your soul.

If you are interested in doing an long distance or a session in Johnstown, please call me and we can talk.

Two Hearts Meeting Together

Today, I felt like writing an informal post about Hearts Meeting.  A chat about how much I love my work.  I am so fortunate that I get to wake up each day, loving my family, my home, and my interactions with life.  It prepares me to be able to be in service in the work I chose.  And I love working with people.  Mostly because it opens my heart. And it opens other people’s hearts.

Hearts

Hearts

In my work practice, I have clients come see me for a variety of reasons.  Mostly people who are uncomfortable with something in life:  their physical bodies, feelings, unclear thinking or relationships to the spiritual.   I listen.  I take in the story from a neutral place.  And then I guide.  My job is to facilitate the unfolding of my client’s own inner wisdom.  For I am not actually the healer, but rather a facilitator of sorts.  For over 25+ years, I have studied, worked and practiced healing techniques to help myself, those nearby whom I love, and my clients who want to connect with their Higher Purpose.  People who want to feel at home in their bodies, their lives with heart and vitality.  How I do that is by being Present with myself, my client and trusting the process of the energy dynamics.  I center in my heart of hearts.

All of life has a stirring of energy.  It lives throughout all of consciousness.  I know this may sound a little far out for some.  But I feel it in the presence of all living things.  I feel it in myself, and especially when I connect from my heart to others.  I may use energy healing, craniosacral therapy or Hakomi or such as tools, but what deeply matters is that we all are part of a sacred heart infinite web.  Humanity is riding on just one small wave in the Universe, but everything is interconnected.  We are interconnected.  Yet we are also given this gift of discovering a sense of self.  and while there may be many similarities between us, we each have a chance to write our own unique stories.  In this, I find passion and heart.  When I connect with my clients on the table, I love the brain and the body, but most of all-touching from my heart to another.  It is so transformational and healing.

You don’t have to be a healer do this.  We are all ordinary people, humble coming from the same Source.  We all have the ability to heal the soul.  It may appear otherwise, but the truth is that in the little things. we can make huge positive change.  Choosing to love from your heart in any moment is a choice we can all make.  Healing this planet, and all the people here is all about this and connecting to other hearts.

I finish now, with a heart full of gratitude for all my clients, as well as for the fullness in my life.  And I wish you all the same.

5 Ways to Find the Best Massage Therapist for You

Have you ever gone in for a Massage and walked out feeling like your LMT was somewhere else?

This can happen in any profession. But when we go in for a massage, we like to feel like our bodies relax and our spirit comes alive, right?

Healing Comes from a Healthy Relationship.  So take your time to find the best Massage Therapist for You!
Massage Therapist

Massage Therapist

5 Ways that You can find the right Massage Therapist for you are:

1.When you call for an appointment, check and make sure the therapist listens well. That can tell a lot about a person. The best therapists are mindful and have skill with healthy contact.

2. Ask your Therapist if they use a routine. Massage Therapists who do aren’t necessarily gearing the session towards you. You deserve to have your needs met, so ask for a tailored body massage.

3.Find a Massage Therapist who has experience. They may charge more than someone out of school, but their Presence, Their Hands, and Wisdom will show your body how to discover what it needs to heal and balance out. When a Massage Therapist is mindful through practice and experience, the work moves beyond basic techniques. Trust the connection and see what happens!

4.Conversation during the session can be very helpful- if it comes from the client and is about the client. However, massage time is not about the life of the Massage Therapist. It’s Ok to ask your therapist for a quiet space. It’s often in silence that the most important things can be heard and found.

5. Build a relationship with your Massage Therapist if you are finding healthy results.  Often clients follow the best coupon or deal.  But when you commit to your own health and share that with your Massage Therapist, the journey deepens.  Deeper relationships build deeper experiences.

 

Getting to understand your body through manual touch can change your life.  The body is the doorway into the whole human experience. Massage Therapy can help you understand this.  Take the dive and free yourself from stress, tension and pain into something new.

Being Emotionally Real

What is like to be raw and vulnerable and to be held in kindness while feeling something real like that?

It is interesting when one begins the journey of self-discovery.

I remember even as a little girl wondering about why didn’t I feel connected any longer to other people.  Being an identical twin, it seemed only natural that we would all feel and see and think similar things.   Not—:) But I do remember at one point getting interested in ESP.  Yet nobody seemed to talk about such things in the mainstream at the time.  So I became like many others, loosing touch with my deeper sense of connection.

Then when I hit my early 30’s, I began to wonder again those basic questions that I think touch many people:  Who AM I?  Why am I here?  What is my purpose?  Again,  I did not find many others who spoke about such things.  Was it because I was a Pisces, a sensitive and creative woman?

But then I picked up a book, called Hands of Light,  written by Dr. Barbara Brennan and felt a whoosh of ah ha.  There are other people in the world who are aware of energy and connection in its more subtle forms.  I really wanted to go to school right then and there, but I had young children, so I waited.  At some point, it did all come together, and the stars aligned so that I might go.  That school for me was a place for me so sacred and profound.  I faced my deepest fears, touched into places I never imagined in my mind and heart.  At the same time,  I found it very difficult.  I wanted my teachers to fit into my “picture of God” pure, peaceful, compassionate and wise.  And they did carry some of these aspects, but they were humans just like me.  With their own flaws and unconscious conditioning.  So I struggled, I fought, and I cried.  At this wonderful school of healing, there was still so much conflict and pain for me.  Things left unhealed in them, and things left unhealed in me.  But I wouldn’t have changed a thing as they were my guides to the next level of awakening.  They laid the foundation for me to be in better relationship.  They gave me the space and time to feel raw and dark, love and hate, and peace at such a level I had never known before.  I was attached, but I had to leave.  I departed with some incredible new friends spread across the globe and such mentors to help me on my way.  One who held me close and saved me from myself more than once.  Eventually I would teach and I still supervise students.  I love the work that I learned there.

Next I moved into my Hakomi training.  It was gentle approach from a psychotherapy perspective in mindfulness.  The work itself, like the Brennan Science was amazing.  Yet even within this quiet and easy container, I felt rage and anger.  And wouldn’t you know it, a person from my Brennan Graduate class showed up who I didn’t feel comfortable with, who kept triggering me into my darkness.  I loved the work, but I was always challenged.  And in all this time, I found some of the instructors to be kind and understanding, and others judging me for feeling so unedited.  Was there any place that I could be “real”?

Bert Hellinger’s work caught my eye.  I studied there for a while.  Learned about family order and lineage healing.  Profound and touching our lives on a soul level.

Afterwards,  I went into the school SPI for Trauma Training.  I expected the founder of the school to be teaching as was advertised.  That is why I signed up.  But she took ill.  A new teacher arrived and I felt so disappointed.  Oh- my raw stuff again. But I learned new tools, I processed my “stuff” and away I went with another “tic” under my belt.

If that wasn’t enough, I decided to delve into the Upledger Institute’s work and found myself finally happy with a basic curriculum that focused on the physiological.  It took me some type to develop my work, but I loved trusting the “Inner Physician” within my clients and just enjoyed riding the waves.  Well, then as I advanced, I started getting more involved in the SER (SomatoEmotional Release) part of the curriculum.  Well, you guessed it… in the group my deep feelings seeped right out again.  Only this time, the holding was more dear.  Not quite enough though.  While I looked for someone on the outside to help me, I continued to have a small piece that kept on suffering.

Next stop on the journey, I decided to visit the Byron Katie School for 9 days.  Now this was a shift.  No bullshit and no Ego teaching here.  Each person was taught how to ask 4 basic questions to then turn around in order to find our own answers.  Any feelings I felt were mine.  Nobody else to blame as all there was were the questions and my mind.  What a relief.  Taking responsibility for how I felt and created.  With each of these teaching,  I stepped out of my box and expanded and grew.

Last stop was on a farm in Northern Ohio.  I studied with Jackie Stevenson with her horses to learn about equine self-discovery.  This was my final destination to truly find inner peace.  She held a position of such quiet unconditional love.  She took no glory from the healing and growth there.  She put the onus on each of us to have our own experience.  There was no judgement from any of the participants that I could see.  All egos left at the door.  So good to be free to cry to say whatever was on my mind, and to stop hiding all that I judged within me.  The horses were magical and everything was perfect there for the first time in my life.

Now I have a farm.  I work with my horses and other animals.  I have also worked with www.integrativeintentions.com in their dolphin program.  I have taken everything that I have learned from all these great places and applied them to my life.  I now can say, that I let life and every moment teach me.  I have let go of wanting other people to give me what I longed for because I know that it is already here.  I have felt raw and I have felt deep.  But now those feelings feel so much softer and easier.  Not saying that I no longer have my distortions or masks.  But my tool box is full.  My heart is full.  And my brain understands things with much more clarity.  I can live real as me now.

With all of this said and done,  it is freeing being more real and authentic.  There are prices to pay for coming out of your shell.  People might rebel or leave you, but you will find yourself.  I believe that is why we are here.  To remember that God is right here inside and that we are the creative aspects of love embodied.  It doesn’t mean ignoring your rawness, but it does mean allowing things to be as they are and to progress and they need in their own time.  So be with the moment. Explore your relationships and grace will help you to uncover your greatness and essence.  The journey is a wave.  Ride it.  Be it.  And know that while this earthy world is temporary, that love is not.  Something deeper is calling us all home.  That something is real.

Reiki Columbus Ohio

Reiki is probably the most well known Energy Healing method in the US.

The reason for this is that Reiki is fairly easy to get an attunement for each of the first two levels with a week-end class.  No previous experience with energy healing is necessary.  Over 1 million people in the USA have received this ability transferred from Master Reiki teacher to student, so that they use Reiki on themselves or others as a healing modality.  Practitioners of Reiki often feel a deep sense of relaxation and healing.  The work is subtle and nourishing.

While I personally enjoy Reiki Treatments, I have found that there are many other schools of energy therapy out there that are quite supportive to the healing process as well.  After researching, I decided to attend the Barbara Brennan School of Healing. It is a 4 year college program based in Florida founded on the work of Dr. Barbara Brennan, author of the books, “Hands of Light” and “Light Emerging”.  It was there that I studied and eventually taught this amazing transformational work. Because I could see the benefits of Energy Therapy as well as working a program to help the Awakening process,  I then studied the advance course for an additional 4 years. I soaked all of it in so that I could share these techniques with others.  Brennan Healing Science® is a comprehensive program that teaches students to become compassionate healers to serve others on their path. And now- I like to incorporate this healing modality into my Craniosacral Therapy and Structural Integration sessions.  It is a gentle hands-on healing process that has helped thousands of people across the world.

Reiki Energy Healing

In addition to Reiki, Brennan Healing Science®,  while I was living in Florida, my friend Joann Rahl, introduced me to the http://www.seraphimblueprint.com.  At first I didn’t think that is would be much with all my other training.  But I still went, and was pleasantly surprised.  It felt wonderful to sit in and receive the energetic initiations.  I felt new frequencies opened up that I have added to my healing work through intention.

While this has been my path in studying and implementing energy healing, there are many other schools that are second generation, and are very appropriate to healing what is going on now here on earth. 

I will say,  that my experience has shown me over and over that we are energy being, with human energy fields.  When we can align our auric fields, we can find deeper balance and move through life more effortlessly.

If you have an interest in Energy Healing,  please go out and investigate.  There is something waiting to help you open up the door.
