Class exercise to feel the difference between spiritual and psychic energy.

1. Hold your crystal and ask Spirit to help you feel Spiritual Healing energy. Psychically Protect yourself.

2. Let the healing force come down from the Higher Realms and enter your crown chakra. It may feel like a tingling sensation or you may see it as a golden stream of light.

3. Let the healing light travel to your heart chakra and then be directed down your arms and out through the palms of your hands or fingertips to the patient. Your hands may become very hot or tingly. Continue sending this energy for several minutes.

4. Thank Spirit and disconnect from healing stream of light.

5. Semi- Ground yourself. Walk around a little.

As a healer you must decide if you wish to do "hands on healing". Some people do not like to be touched by strangers, others prefer and find comfort from physical contact with the healer.

An alternative is to work with the patient's auric field, as the Etheric template and Ketheric templates hold images of the body. Healing can be sent to illness in the aura and in time, this will heal the corresponding area in the physical body. The healer's hands can also be held several centimetres above the physical body and healing light directed to the area of illness. This healing light is often very hot and powerful, so be aware of any discomfort to the patient.

The hands can also be placed lightly on the shoulders or crown, or above them and you can ask the God force to direct the right amount of healing light to where it is needed in the body or mind. By experimenting you will find the technique most suitable for you and your patients.

Protection is always necessary before and during any healing session as you may unwittingly take on the patient's illness and pain, if adequate safeguards are not taken. Protection techniques include Unifying and Protecting yourself and placing yourself in a protective bubble of light that allows healing energies out, but does not allow illness in, to attach to you. Ask your Guides to construct one around you. Remember to send all negative energies, such as illness, to the Sun to be destroyed. Just visualise a grey, claggy mass being sent into the heat of the sun to be destroyed.

Spiritual Healing should not deplete you of your energies, as you are the channel and are not using your own reserves of energy, but the energies of the Divine. It is wise to mentally cleanse yourself and wash your hands of negativity between patients. After a particularly gruelling session of healing, it is recommended that you take a warm salt bath.

Most illnesses come from an emotional or psychological basis. Some people are meant to experience sickness for a spiritual reason and others may hold onto their illness for subconscious reasons, unknown to them. This is where advice from your Spiritual Guides can be helpful in obtaining information on treatments or directing your hands to certain body areas. There is often a spontaneous emotional release by the patient during the healing and Spirit can often direct you to say comforting words or gentle questioning, to get to the cause of the problem. All healing is helpful on some level.

Contacting Spirit (see Lesson Eleven) is an invaluable aid to healing others. Just ask for the right Healing Spirit to come forward to aid you.

Contacting Spirit

We believe that all illness is reflected in the patients chakra system and auras. You can learn to locate deformed and over or underused chakras and negative patches in the auric fields and send healing Spiritual Light to these regions, to promote better health. See previous Aura Lessons and Chakra Lessons.

As a healer you may be perplexed by clients who are beginning to be healed fully, then revert to old ways of behaviour, diet, negativity etc. Many people feel threatened by 'good health', especially after a protracted illness. They feel that they will have to make major changes in their lives, such as seeking employment and their status in the family may change as they lose attention and sympathy from others.

Therefore on a subconscious level they will decide to return to the old familiar way of living and manifest their illness once more. If your client can be shown the exciting possibilities and positive new avenues that good health offers them, they may be able to overcome their worries and continue with their treatments.

Others may manifest illness in order to punish themselves for imagined wrong doing, to evade certain responsibilities or in the extreme, manifest death, in order to escape this present incarnation.

Illness can also be presented to the client, in order to have them become aware of mental, emotional or spiritual issues in their current life or past lives, that have been neglected and unresolved. It is a type of Spiritual 'wake-up call.'

It is essential, as a healer, that you work from unconditional love and are never judgmental about the patient. If there is a true dislike of the patient, it is better to refer them to someone else, as your feelings may affect the healing session. It is also necessary to have a strong belief in your ability to heal others, by being a channel for Spirit. You cannot heal half heartedly. You must have an expectancy of success and inspire your patient to feel the same.

There are many techniques of alternate healing, all of which are valid aids to the successful healing session. By investigation you will find which are most appropriate for your use. Healing should always take place in a calm, warm atmosphere of positivity.

Aromatherapy is an ancient art of healing, using essential oils to promote health in people, by stimulating or relaxing them, by inhalation of the fragrance. The Egyptians used myrrh to embalm their mummies 6,000 years ago. Modern perfume manufacturers use essential oils to create new perfumes and toiletries. Many essential oils can be used for massage or burnt in incense holders to promote a feeling of calmness and well being.

Colour Therapy is a recognised method of stimulating the senses and emotions. On a grey day people feel depressed, while a blue sky with a golden sun, usually cheers them up. Fast food outlets carefully choose their decor colours to stimulate appetite and promote fast eating; reds and yellows. Prisons have used a dark pink to subdue their prisoners. Brilliant white can seem sterile and cold. Colours can indicate to us a person's frame of mind. If they continually wear beige or grey they may feel depressed and have low self esteem. While another may wear red to feel energised or blue to feel calm.
