The type of healing I do has been around as long as mankind and is known by many names.
Healing as a team. Izzy (seated) and Sue.
'Spiritual healing', 'Faith Healing', 'Laying on of hands' are all names used for this type of healing. I prefer the name 'Universal Healing' as it is available to anyone of any ,or no, religion; with faith or without.
As long as the Healer believes, it works.
It is the tapping into, or connecting with, the Universal energy or Spirit that is in everything. The energy without which nothing would exist. Having connected to this energy we then channel it wherever it is needed to give healing and help.
There is nothing supernatural about this. It is an ability we are all born with. However some people are fortunate enough to be able to use this talent with ease, whereas others need to be nurtured to help them to develop this ability.
You need nothing more than a willingness to try, and to be open to the 'possibility' that you CAN do this. Even if you never want to do this in a professional capacity it is a wonderful gift to be able to use for family and friends. A sort of 'first aid'.
Most people already do this without thinking. How often have you 'rubbed' or 'kissed' some hurt or injury 'better'? When was the last time you you put your arm around, or hand on, the shoulder of someone in emotional pain? This is all unconcious healing.
A genuine Healer will never promise a 'cure' for a patient/client. All they can promise is that the healing will help the situation. Sometimes amazing cures and recoveries ARE made but nothing can be guaranteed.
Healing can be given 'hands on' by laying on of hands, or 'hands off' where the patient is never actually touched. Both techniques are as effective, it just comes down to preference of patient and Healer.
Patents often ask "What will I feel?". This can differ from gentle warmth, to heat, cold, tingling or nothing at all. It works whatever the sensations given off by the Healer or felt by the patient. Most people report wonderful feelings of relaxation both during and after healing.
A lot of people expect an instant cure of the illness or problem! Most would be disappointed! Often a Healer will ask the patient to come back again once or twice, or for a course of treatment. Be guided by your Healer as they will be able to sense much more about how a treatment is working than you.
Healing treats not only the physical body but also the emotional and spiritual. Often healing is only completed when all three are aligned.
