True healing takes place through ah ha moments, realisations and arriving at a new level of understanding. Without this taking place we do not heal on a soul level.

Therapies such as Intuitive Core Healing work at finding these realisations on an emotional level so that once understood you are then ready and able to clear and heal on a much deeper energetic level.

My current understanding is that it is not always helpful to heal someone without them having this emotional realisation for themselves. As a healer if I “take away” the pain for a client then they will not heal in this deep way, which needs to happen for the soul to expand and for you to become who you really are.

The client should have an awareness of where this pain originates, which could very well mean going back to early childhood, and finding the event or negative memory where the difficulty began. Then the shift in understanding takes place and the ah ha moment makes it much easier to let go of and heal the entire energy block.

Dealing with the new energies in 2012

Many of us are feeling energetic shifts on a daily basis.

We need to stay aligned with the planet’s energies as much as possible to stay as balanced as possible, but for many of us this is not easy.

What is honesty?

“Integrity is telling myself the truth, and honesty is telling the truth to other people”….Spencer Johnson

Be careful what you ask for!

These days lots of people are aware of books like The Secret, Cosmic Ordering etc. The basis of these sorts of books is that you ask for something and by doing certain things like creating a vision board and focusing on what you want…hey presto…there it is! Simple! …..Or is it?

Some things are very simple to ask for and get. Timing for most of us can be an issue with a lot of what we are asking for, but small things do seem to pop up easily. One of the easiest things to ask for by the way is the perfect parking space. When it comes to the perfect partner, a new home, a better job, or good health then it gets a bit more complicated for lots of us.

I read somewhere that only 1% of the population can easily manifest their dream home/car/job etc. The rest of us struggle. Why is that? After years of not really understanding, I now understand quite clearly that any blocks and negative beliefs I have in my subconscious mind will influence what I can and cannot create. And until the relevant block or negative belief has been healed and changed I am not going to be able to create the changes I really would love to make.

What is really important though, is to make sure that you are clear with what you are asking for. Think carefully about what you are asking for. For instance you might really want to change jobs. So you ask for a new job, because your boss is driving you mad and you are stressed all the time. But make sure you ask in such a way that all your bases are covered. Do you want more money than you are being paid now? What location is your new job, and what sort of boss do you want?

I have met loads of people who have got exactly what they have asked for, only to realise that they have missed out some sort of detail that is important, and so have had to start again. Spend some time thinking about your issue. How would you like things to be?  Then write down exactly what you would like, and see if it feels obtainable. If it feels good, then put that piece of paper safely away and get on with your life, knowing and trusting that whatever you have asked for is yours! If it does not feel obtainable then you know for sure that you have a block that you need to clear to make effective positive changes.

Energy psychology techniques are the most effective way to create positive changes, Intuitive Core Healing and EFT being two of them.

Intuitive healing is a way of finding answers and solutions for what the body or person needs to allow the process of self healing to occur. These answers are to be found in the psychic, clairvoyant and spiritual energies.

Or to put it another way you are accessing a higher wisdom that is not going to be found in a medical textbook or Doctors office!

This is more than a sixth sense, it is a divine knowing felt within. This is intuition. An intuitive healer has simply developed their intuitive skills that everyone has to one degree or another.

There are many ways of working with this energy and many forms of intuitive healing, which is dependent on the development of the healer and what particular field of healing they are working in.

Some intuitive healers deal with energy blocks, look at the aura, or scan the body to see what is wrong without touching a client using their psychic sight. They then work with the client’s energy to clear the blocks acting as a facilitator. Once the intuitive healer has found where the blocked energy is they can use visualization and focussed thought for healing.

There are times when conventional medicine is unable to diagnose of find out what is wrong with a patient. Finding a good intuitive healer at that point could be valuable and get you back on track moving towards wellness again.

It is also possible to detect energetically problems that have not yet manifested in the physical body. I have found that the build up of negative energy begins to manifest in the body sometimes years ahead of a physical problem. So the Intuitive healer can often “see” a block somewhere in the body long before a physical diagnosis or symptoms are current.

One day soon I believe that we will all go to an Intuitive healer to get an energy check/scan/reading to maintain well being and to in this way be able to work on and change the beginnings of an energy block before illness and disease has become physical thus being able to remain healthy and well.

Feel free to take a look at http://www.intuitivecorehealing.co.uk/ to have a look at the form of intuitive healing I have developed.

It really is true that whatever you focus on, you create.

My daughter was visiting friends who had a wasps nest by their front door a few weeks ago. She arrived home to find me relaxing in the garden as it was a lovely sunny day. She asked me about wasps, their nests and what you do about them and she continued to talk about how much she dislikes wasps. I answered her questions and then proceeded to launch into childhood memories of mine which included how my mother would put marmalade on a saucer, wait until the wasps landed on the marmalade and they she took great delight in squashing them dead!

Anyway as we continued with our conversation I realised that there were now wasps in the garden, having really not seen any all year,and in a very short time we had lots of them…and I mean lots! There must have been 20 or 30 near us.

I suddenly realised what was happening. “We need to stop talking about wasps! Look at what we have manifested! That was fast!” I said.  We both focused on the garden being peaceful with just a few pretty butterflies and an occasional bumble bee and within minutes the wasps had disappeared and our garden was peaceful again.

But it does not end there. A couple of days later I was sharing the story of the wasps to a friend on the phone while looking at the garden. Lo and behold there they were again! I had not seen a single wasp in the interim but they were almost instantly back as soon as I began to talk about them again. I laughed and as soon as I finished my phone call I thanked the wasps for coming again.

This was really showing me how powerful we can be with our words and thoughts. I said they could go now and they did, quite quickly again. I then said out loud “my garden is a peaceful haven where I can be relaxed and calm”.

No more wasps!

This is an amazing example of how easy it is to manifest anything. It works for good and bad!

As I type this on my laptop it is October 21st and I am not near the garden, but I might just go and have a quick peep to see if they are back again…!

Your emotional health effects every moment of your life. Everyone goes up and down emotionally depending on what is happening in life. It is normal to feel low from time to time as long as you don’t stay feeling low for too long.  When life is good we feel balanced and confident.

On the other hand when things go wrong we can feel down and it can be hard to get back to feeling balanced. The way we handle our emotions is dependent on how we have grown up and the type of environment and experiences we have had, and what negative core beliefs we have inherited and accumulated . It is from those growing up experiences that we then learn to handle our emotions in a variety of ways.

When we are not emotionally balanced we can feel that we cannot cope with life, we feel down, depressed, alone and tearful. Feeling positive emotionally allows us to cope with whatever happens in a balanced way and we live a productive life.

Your negative core beliefs, such as the belief that “I am unlovable” or “I am no good” or “I am a failure” will influence your emotional condition, and you need to develop skills to help yourself, regardless of whether you choose to work on yourself in deeper ways, such as Intuitive Core Healing therapy http://www.intuitivecorehealing.co.uk/

Some of the ways to help yourself could be getting enough sleep, eating healthy food, talking about your feelings to someone who will not judge you, exercising, and generally looking after yourself.

Know the warnings signs when you are not feeling positive and take steps to stay aware of where you are emotionally and then take action as soon as possible to look after yourself in whatever way feels appropriate.

There are still taboos about admitting that you are not coping emotionally, but sharing how you feel can often help. Talk to someone that you can trust.

Signs to look for in yourself are: tearful, tired all the time, preferring to be on your own a lot, finding it hard to cope with normal day to day things, not wanting to do things you would normally enjoy, eating and drinking more or less, changes in sleep…more or less, feeling there is no point, and not liking yourself or feeling no one likes you.

If this sounds like you then it is time to do something about how you are feeling.

If you are very low then contact: www.samaritans.org they are a wonderful support organisation.

Some helpful things to remember:

-You have to put you first in this!

-Stay truthful to yourself and your needs. Learn to say no, pleasing other people will not make you healthy!

-Having hope about your future is essential. When you have hope your energy lifts and you immediately start to feel more positive. For example; making a decision to change a job you are not happy in, leaving a dysfunctional relationship, moving house/area or planning a holiday etc.

-Your body will tell you everything that you need to know in each moment, all you have to do is pay attention. Use your body as a guidance system; it will guide you every step of the way with what it is that you need next.  For example, if you eat something and suddenly feel like your energy has dropped that is your body’s way of saying that that particular food is wrong for you at this time. Similarly if by doing something you start to feel worse …stop.

-What you need one day may not be the same in two or three days, it is a continual process of re-tuning to your ‘now’ needs.

-Trust what comes to you and always make a decision on what feels right to you.

-Using your instinct and gut reaction more than your intellect will help you. Or put another way, pay attention to what you are feeling rather than what you are thinking! Be heart based and not head based.

-When you are holistically healing yourself fully it is incredibly time consuming, if it is not taking up most of your day you are probably not doing enough. Which may seem crazy but if you haven’t got your health…what have you got?

-Change your perspective of your illness to that of it being a gift or blessing instead of something you have done wrong. This is your body’s way of showing you where you need to go within yourself and how to grow and move forward in a new and better way.

-Stop resisting the pain, and instead allow yourself to go into the pain to see what it is trying to tell you. Pain is your body’s way of trying to get your attention! Listen to what it is saying but do not wallow in it.

-Do you on a soul level truly want to heal? It all relates to what is deep within you not what you are thinking consciously. Just one example of this is that you could be saying out loud ‘I want to be better’ but deep within you there is a core belief/emotion that you don’t deserve to be better.

And then you have to be prepared to work…

It is important to understand that holistic healing means healing all of you on every level. It is more than likely that one solution will not fix all…

All illness is energetic dysfunction. All energetic dysfunction is a negative belief and/or emotions that create a block or weakening in your energy field which will eventually manifest into a physical health problem if left unresolved. There are some really helpful books available that will help to guide you to understand what beliefs and emotions are connected to your particular illness.

In order to heal, we have to be in a positive relaxed state. Your energy is affected by everything that you do, feel and think so if you are mostly negative, stressed and doing things on a daily basis that are against what you really want it becomes much harder to heal.

It is important to be really honest with yourself and others that may be around you, staying truthful about what you are feeling emotionally and physically.  Please note; this does not mean pretending that you are fine and well when you are not.

When I wasn’t working on the core beliefs and emotions (using forms of energy psychology) that were connected to my illness, I made sure that I felt good with whatever I was doing. I worked on keeping a balance between letting go and clearing my negative beliefs and feelings whilst staying grounded and in a positive energy the rest of the time.  This was particularly important as when doing emotional work it is very easy to lose perspective or stay in a negative emotion that you are having trouble clearing.

During this time I paid particular attention to what I was watching on television, reading and who I was talking to. That meant not watching people with health problems on TV, turning off the news and looking for ‘feel good’ movies and programs.

If you are still in a job or relationship that you know is wrong for you, it is probably time to get honest with yourself and look at changing things…

After all if 90% of your day is spent doing something that doesn’t make you happy then you are not in positive energy and how can you expect to activate your self-healing fully?

Food for thought…

By listening in this way and getting answers from my meditations, I set up a completely different process of healing.  Just one of the ways was my diet which altered considerably by eliminating certain foods and adding others. I changed my supplements, and much more!

One of the biggest things that I learnt during this process is that our perceptions of ‘healthy eating’ and ‘healthy living’ vary considerably. I thought that because I was eating ample fruit and veg, taking supplements etc that I was eating very well…I wasn’t!

By paying far more attention to what you are eating and reading the contents of everything…even porridge! You may be shocked at the amount of fats, sugars, salt and unnatural ingredients in so many things, even things that it would never occur to you would contain them! By paying full attention to my body I could tell how happy it was with everything I ate and altered accordingly…
