About Healing

(Note that while this post is not about animal communication, it is a compilation of what the animals have been teaching me about lately)

To fully understand healing techniques, you have to understand that we are all healing all of the time. Healing is our divine birth right. The divine is always moving us towards healing. There is no process that can cause this take place, because it is always taking place. There is no process that can create healing. Healing is already created. Healing belongs in the realm of the divine and the divine alone. There is nothing we can do to cause and create it; we can only claim it and allow it.

If healing is our divine birthright and naturally occurring at all times, one might ask: Why am I experiencing problems? Why am I experiencing a lack of “healing”?
Healing is always occurring, but when our will conflicts with divine will, our will wins. Why? Because we have been given free will, and therefore in our realm, human “power” can trump the power of the divine. This does not mean that human power is stronger than divine power—in actuality human “power” is laughable compared to divine power. But because of divinity has granted us free will on this plane, it will not interfere with what we chose to create for ourselves here. I also want to emphasize that I am not implying that any one who is wishing to experience healing but is not experiencing it is purposefully doing this to themselves. While I have seen this in some cases it is far more common that our lack of healing is based on other underlying issues that we may or may not be consciously aware of: such as a faulty belief system (and by the way, most of our human belief systems are faulty), stored emotion, past trauma, etc. If we do have a block based on one of these areas we will experience a lack of healing in this physical realm, regardless of the will of divinity (which again, is always for our healing).

With this in mind, true healing techniques do not cause or create healing, they remove the blocks that are keeping it from occurring. By healing something through the divine I am focusing on an issue so that I can see it through divine sight and knowledge. Through divine sight and knowledge there are no blocks, because divinity is perfect and blocks can only occur in our realm. When I am able to see something through divine sight, I will see it perfectly, without the blocks. Through my sight matching the divine sight on the issue, the blocks are actually removed—if the client is willing to release them. If the client has a vested interest in holding on to these blocks, I will have to go to the client and ask the client to consciously become willing to release these blocks to the divine in order for them to be removed. When working with an animal, I may have to go to the person in order to accomplish this, as many times an animal is holding onto an issue of the person, and will persist in holding on to it until the person is ready to release it. This is a gift of healing that they give to us.

It is important to note that sometimes through this process I will become privy to what these blocks are that are being released; but this is not always necessary for healing to occur. All that is necessary is that I am able to see and recognize the issue through the divine and turn it over to the divine to heal. Once the blocks have been released, the natural, divine process of healing that is always occurring can occur as it is supposed to; thus we experience healing on the physical.

For the most perfect healing to take place, it is important that the client be in a mind-state of welcoming the divine to come in and rearrange whatever is needed. The client should be able to say: “Welcome into my house. Everything that is here belongs to you. You can take whatever you need, rearrange whatever is displeasing to you, and leave me anything that you think is lacking.” This sounds simple, but in reality is a difficult state of surrender for most of us to enter. Most of us are actually fairly fond of, comfortable in, and attached to the reality that we have created for ourselves. Thankfully for grace, we do not have to be perfect, or even perfectly surrender, in order to experience healing. The closer to this state we can reach, however, the more far reaching the results of the healing in our lives.

Also, if we are hanging on to something hard enough, it can prevent healing from occurring. Something I have been taught recently is that “Sometimes a person has to be taken to a very difficult place in on order to recognize that the benefits of giving up something (they are hanging on to) are greater than the benefits of continuing to hang on to it.” It is never the will of the divine to take us to a place where we are lacking in healing; rather it is our own stubbornness and refusal to change or let go of our attachments that creates this situation in our lives. Unfortunately, sometimes we have to be moved to very dark and uncomfortable places in order to find a recognition of or a willingness to let go of a faulty pattern or belief in our life. I can say for myself I never would have discovered this method of healing if I had not reached a state of desperation where I could no longer stand living in my own reality. It was that point that I cried up to God that I was ready to seek divine reality and surrender my reality totally and completely to the reality of the divine.

The most wonderful thing I am learning about this process is the number of things that can be healed through the divine. Most commonly people ask for healing on physical illnesses or injuries. But ideally we should all be seeking healing before an issue pops up as an illness or “dis-ease.” Healing can and should take place any time we see any lack of perfection in our lives. When we are struggling with difficult emotions, wounded relationships, belief systems that are not serving us, or a general lack of success or abundance in our lives, we should seek healing. Unfortunately, we have all become accustomed to the daily struggles of our lives, and believe it is normal and natural to constantly be at odds with the universe. While I am not suggesting that we shouldn’t encounter some forms of difficulty in our lives, the truth is, we did not come down here to this planet to suffer. Divine will is love, happiness, peace, and abundance. If we are suffering, something is wrong, and we should invite the divine in for healing.

I cannot count the number of times I am on my knees throughout the day asking for divine healing on something. While we were made in the pattern of divinity, we are constantly straying from it due to our human teachings and encounters; therefore divine healing should be a practice that we are incorporating into our daily lives; not just something we seek when we are so out of whack that we can no longer function! To truly live in divine reality is a constant endeavor, and something I should save for another post—because it is truly a subject of its own. But it is worthy of note that to experience divine healing on a constant basis in our lives involves seeking divine reality.

Whew, I was obviously inspired to write on this subject tonight, and I hope it has been enlightening to everyone as to the nature of healing. I am obviously very excited to incorporate this form of healing into my work and have been immersed in learning about it recently.
