I believe HEALING to be the most important of the Spiritual gifts we ALL have.  I use the term SPIRITUAL HEALING as opposed to FAITH HEALING as the person being in need of healing does not have to believe in Spiritualism.

It should also be remembered that the Healers ARE NOT DOCTORS – The healing that takes place should be in addition to any medication prescribed by doctors  to assist in the patient his or her healing process.

Although there are many forms of Spiritual Healing, I believe that there are two major factors:-

(1)    The patient must want to be healed

(2)    The healer must have only the best interests of the patient in mind when asking for the healing energies to be channelled through his/her body

The words to say quietly in the patient’s mind  ‘ I want to receive healing and be healed’,   and

‘I wish’ to be used as a channel for the Divine healing energies to be passed onto the patient’ to be said by the healer.

I believe that Spiritual Healing should be given free to everyone, but, of course, if the healers are hiring rooms or travelling to and from people’s homes, a donation may be given but should not asked for.  My belief is that, even if the healers are not in the best financial position themselves, spirit will provide for their needs in other ways.

When I first entered the Norwich Spiritualist Church and trained to be a healer, there were some rules and regulations around but over the years many have been introduced – mainly to protect the poor, sick and vulnerable.  Originally rules like ‘you should not touch near certain areas of the body – especially where healers are laying hands on the ‘opposite sex’.  Now to ensure no claims are made against the healer or the organisation they belong to, ‘no laying on of hands at all unless the patient requests a touch, then it should only be the shoulders.

The healer should always be of a loving true mind, a sincere wish to be used as channel for Spirits HEALING powers to be passed through his/her body and onto the patient.  The healer should gently pass hands about 1 to 2 inches above the body and pray that healing to the patient is given.  The healer is only the channel and this should be remembered at all time.

I do believe that if the healer is unwell, it is better that they refrain from healing at that particular time.

Healing is so important to me but I do feel that for this page a brief outline is all that is required, if you want more then you can attend a workshop or speak to me on a one to one basis, or better, receive healing yourselves, even if you are not ill, see how much calmer and happier you feel !!

There are many forms of healing such as

HEALING CIRCLES

There are thousands of Healing Circles throughout the world who meet regularly and pray for all of their family and friends to receive the beautiful Divine Healing Power. Then they pray for all on the earth who are sick in Mind, Body or Spirit, in areas of war or drought and starvation or War.  Then they pray for the Earth itself to be healed.  There are also many Spiritual Healing Web pages on the Internet all designed to give Love and Healing to those in need. 

There are thousands Healing Circles throughout the world who sit down and pray for Spiritual Healing of the World at 10pm GMT to ensure constant positive healing thoughts are sent on a regular basis to help ALL in need, no matter what Colour, Religion or Creed they are.

ABSENT HEALING

The patient does not have to be at the Healing Centre to receive Healing, this can be done by praying for the person who you know to be suffering, either in Mind Body or Spirit and asking for the Divine Healing Rays to be sent directly to the patient.

SELF HEALING

The Hindus have a saying ‘ if you wake up in the morning and say you are ill, then you will be ill’ and that the Mind controls the Body.  So if you tell your Body you are Well and Happy then you will be Well and Happy.  Give it a try sometime – leave a little note beside your bed saying ‘ Today, when I wake up, I want to be Healthy and Happy no matter what is in store for me’ and just see what happens. 

Similarly with self Healing, ask for the Divine Healing Power to be sent to you filling your whole body with Healing rays, concentrating on the part that is in need of healing for a few minutes and see how you feel.

TRANCE HEALING

Trance is a state of deeper mediation where the Healing Guides from the Spirit World take over the Healing Medium.  These spiritual guides are usually doctors or surgeons who are sent to help – this is a special and wonderful form of healing but should only be done by specially trained healers in controlled conditions but I have seen and been involved in this practice and the results are truly wonderful

SUMMING UP

There are other forms of healing such as Reiki and Crystal healing all being practiced and have all been proved to be successful to a greater or lesser degree and it is down to the individual to try all forms of healing and then trust their ‘inner thoughts’ as to which method is the most beneficial to them – we are all different and therefore so is Healing and which one is right for you only you can tell.
