Energy healing is not a new phenomena to either the Western world or to the East. Known by varied names and styles throughout thousands of years, energy healing is the way in which one human being can affect the health and well being of another. If we step outside the confines of philosophical materialism (Western science) we find shaman, healers, witches and wizards contributing to every society on every continent. Specialization is the key to understanding the different forms energy healing can take, as some psychics direct their work towards supporting physical health, while others deal with emotional healing, and yet another group are spiritual healers who interact with realms other than the material world.
My own experience with energy healing and psychic development began quite spontaneously at the age of 32 years old. I was intuitively drawn to running energy through a client, an unexpected byproduct of my meditation and Chinese martial arts practices. Curious at the changes people reported from these spontaneous healings I sought teaching and guidance from well-respected healers such as the Rev. Rosalyn L. Bruyere in California and Stylianos Atteshlis (“Daskalos”) in Cyprus. To gain my energy healing credentials as a professional energy healer I chose to study a blend of Core Energetics and energy healing as taught at the Barbara Brennan School of Healing (BBSH), and completed their four-year training program in 1992, the same year I completed my Qi Gong therapist certification.
Once I began to teach energy healing and administrate other healers in 1994 at the Barbara Brennan School of Healing I was struck by the transformative power of energy work in shifting relationship and personal issues out of repetitive cycles while creating new choices. Consciousness is energy, energy is consciousness; change one and you affect the other. But, in addition to teaching various hands-on energy healing techniques I discovered that it was the therapeutic aspects of the work that were additionally important to a client’s long-term growth. Coaching an individual towards the conscious embrace of their true potential was a powerful skill to learn. Awakening to their true nature I witnessed clients making radical leaps and shifts in their lives, leading them ever closer to their soul’s longing. And, while receiving a healing technique is a potent experience when combined with a therapeutic experience of themselves beyond of their everyday persona – their authentic and spiritually- based nature – a client could integrate the healing at a more conscious level .
Deepening my energy healing research into the psychology of relational therapy led me to work increasingly with chakra balancing, relationship cords, and past life healing. Each of these specialized fields cleared the space for the ending of past life trauma and similar chronic patterns, opening the client’s evolution upward towards a high state of being. The expected benefits of psychic development – opening the third eye, precognition, clairvoyance, contact with spirit guides- were possible for many, but I found that without healing the relational wounds of our past, these gifts would simply deepen old patterning. Becoming more psychic while retaining old wounds just led to more creative ways to wound the self, and others.
After a successful ten years career at the Barbara Brennan School of Healing (BBSH), and through subsequent years of study and private practice of energy psychology I have developed a new specialty: Relational Energy Healing. With an awareness of how the auric field and chakra energy healing shift us through various human developmental stages I discovered methods that energy healing can significantly enhance the emerging evolution of an individual. What often appears from a successful series of treatment are clients claiming new choices in their relationships and in their lives. This leads towards a radical shift in perspective and functioning in the real world.
A unique aspect of relational energy healing is the practical work of clearing and supporting various chakra cords while coaching the client through the life stage they are currently navigating. These non-visible connective strands link or interface us with the chakra systems of other important individuals in our lives. Clearing away invasive chakra cords from expired or unwanted relationships that tap into your auric field can be of tremendous value for a client, as the chakras appear to have a limited bandwidth; clear out the weeds and you have more room to grow flowers in your life. With the energy drain of the past reduced or eliminated more energy can be funneled into present-day goals or creations. I have also developed a system of working with chakra self connections, the self-referencing cords that bloom out of our existing relationships. I named these self cords: they are the energetic structure in which we build an inner connection to self, and literally grow our sense of identity.
If the energy healing practitioner is well-trained and spiritually ready, they can guide a client through many dark or challenging places in their lives, helping to access important inner resources. But if the energy healing is not specialized in what you need, or a healer is untrained, a client will be unresponsive to treatment. Please know that when performed correctly with a responsive client energy healing is not subtle work; it brings definite and often powerful results over time. Choose your energy healer wisely, and expect change to occur. If nothing really shifts for you I recommend moving on to another healer, choosing to give yourself the support you deserve rather than giving up on yourself. Find the support to help evolve your life to the next level, to experience improved relationships, and learn to let go of all that holds you back in this lifetime.
