Consciousness and Healing (3)
I have identified seven levels of consciousness in healing and discussed the first five in previous blogs; in this blog I discuss the final two, the energy healer and the informational healer. The prevailing mindset in the medical community today is dominated by biochemistry and (increasingly) genetics, although there is a growing realisation that psychological…

Healing Visualization
Creative imagery and affirmations have proved their worth in healing time and time again. Here’s an example: Katy had suffered from Irritable Bowel Syndrome for many years. Nothing – including a rigorous dietary regime – had brought relief. Then she tried Creative Imagery. Every day, she relaxed deeply and imagined she was examining her bowel…

Insights into rapid recovery
Our understanding of recovery from injury owes much to professional sport. Studies of athletes who have made a rapid and complete recovery from serious injury reveal these common threads: They are dedicated to regaining full fitness, and insist on nothing less. Many want more – to be in better shape than they were before their…

Emotional Healing
Healing at an emotional level should always be a gentle process of letting go, rather than a battle to ‘beat’ whatever originally ’caused’ the upset or illness. There’s lots of evidence that working through ‘negative’ emotions helps you recover from illness more quickly, and (perhaps even more importantly) reduces the chances of your getting ill…

Compassion Is Good Medicine
As a result of pioneering neuro-biologists such as Dr Candace Pert (author of ‘The Molecules of Emotion’) we now know that the traditional notion of a mind-body split makes no sense whatsoever. The central nervous system, controlled by the brain, extends to every cell in the body via chemical receptors and neuro-transmitters. Moreover, the evidence…

The self-healing process
Illness is often the gateway to personal development. Along with the pain and suffering of a physical illness comes opportunity to change and to grow. There is a great deal of evidence that many health problems arise primarily from mismanagement. Many illnesses respond more to better self-management and self-healing than allopathic medicine. If you think…

A New Body Every Year?
Would you like a brand new body every year? It’s not that far-fetched you know! Your body is constantly regenerating itself. The cells continually die and are replaced with new cells at the rate of more than one million every second. The cells of the heart and digestive system are replaced every three to six…

The Mind-Body Connection
We’ve always known that there’s a connection between the body and the mind, but for several centuries doctors in the West regarded it as relatively unimportant. The emphasis was on fixing bodies, rather like a mechanic fixing a car. If a part wasn’t working, mend it. If that didn’t work, replace it. The body was…

Spiritual Healing
Spiritual healing is, of course, ‘humbug’ to the mainstream medical fraternity. I know of only one qualified doctor who entertains the possibility, and he quit practising mainstream medicine over a decade ago. Spiritual healing covers a wide range of methods, but is most closely associated in the public consciousness with the laying on of hands.…

Bioenergetic Healing – the Scientific Basis
Last century astonishing developments took place in physics. For instance, Max Planck discovered the quartation of energy, the young Einstein acknowledged the double nature of quanta as wave-particle effects, and Werner Heisenberg challenged the supremacy of cause and effect in the subatomic realms. Nonlocality The 1920’s saw the rise of quantum physics and the first…
