It’s the truth. Healers aren’t gods – yours or anyone else’s.
And no one belongs on a pedestal. Trust me, you put someone on a pedestal and you’re the one who’s going to get hurt when – in your eyes – they fall from it.
Healers, of any kind, are here to help you facilitate your healing. You are responsible for your body, mind and soul. No one else. And it may take more than one kind of healer to get you going.
A Long Road
I damaged my right knee’s ACL, MCL and LCL. Using a cane to help me walk, I hurt my left shoulder. I’m not whining, or looking for pity. I did it to myself. I am using myself as an example.
I began physical therapy to regain the use of both and to build them back up again. But I started missing some of those appointments because my back kept going out. That was followed by having massive muscle spasms across my back. I ended up in the Emergency Room.
I was sent home with meds I really didn’t want to take (but did), and my doctor and I discussed physical therapy for my back.
Throughout this, I gave myself energy healing every day – sometimes several times a day. I told my husband that my self-healings, and those from my friends, only eased the pain for a short time.
“I energy healed the bejeebies out of me, but I’m not getting long term relief,” I complained to my husband. “But, I am bejeebies free.”
“It’s because it’s mechanical,” he explained.
A light bulb popped on.
Letting my M.D. know, I sought a chiropractor and began with him. I soon added a massage therapist and physical therapy. And continued my energy healing and receiving energy healing from friends.
My healing jumped forward.
I did modify some recommendations making them work with my body and my needs – such as only using meds at night if I needed them; and some exercises were altered to work with my body.
I took responsibility and didn’t lay my pain and imbalances at the feet of another, expecting them to perform a miracle.
I instead built a beautiful team – each one knowing about the others – and worked with each one within their specialty. I worked on creating my own miracle.
Healer Hopping
I recently heard from quite a few people seeking energy healing from me. Real people with real pain, in need of help.
I had started working with some of them, only to discover some were healer hopping. I stopped.
I also heard from a few who complained that they had tried several healers who were obviously frauds because the recipient felt nothing during the healing session. During one conversation, it was revealed to me that they were healer hopping as well.
These people were angry, bitter and/or lashing out at healers that they considered to be frauds.
Don’t get me wrong – there are frauds in just about any given profession – and shame on them. However, there are some beautiful people who are truly gifted healers. But these angry, bitter healer hoppers are laying their problems at the feet of another.
Healers aren’t gods. Healers aid in assisting someone to heal. Aid.
I understand constant pain. I understand the drive to find relief, help and healing. I understand the feelings of frustration and helplessness. But healer hopping can be unhealthy, not to mention unfair to real healers.
Healer hopping can add layers on to the client’s energy field. If a healer doesn’t recognize this, they can end up just adding another layer to the pile.
If the healer understands what they’re seeing, they spend a lot of time and energy to remove these incomplete layers so they can get to the base problem. As the healer works, and the client hops to yet another healer or more, the client receives no help whatsoever. The new energies are busy with the previous, unfinished, layers.
The client has sabotaged their own healing sessions by piling healers on.
What a horrible cycle, and what a waste of time and energy for both healers and the client.
And the more angry and/or bitter the client is towards the healers, the harder it is for energy to work on the base problem. The healer’s energy spends its time bouncing off, or trying to work its way through, the wall of anger, bitterness and negative beliefs instead of working on the base problem.
Positive Mindset
Mindset has a lot of power when it comes to healing. A positive mindset seems to go farther in healing. Why? Because their positive mindset means they aren’t in the victim role.
Instead they accept responsibility for themselves…thus creating a beautiful breeding ground for their own created miracles.
It may take a lot of hard, sometimes painful work, but they are actively involved in their own healing.
Miracles do happen, and they start with you.
