These days there are so many healing techniques available to us, such as
quantum touch
massage therapy
Touch for Health
zero balance
healing touch
chiropractic
chakra balance
kigong
The list goes on and on. It is exciting to learn that more and more people around the world are accepting the healing value of alternative and complementary modalities.
When we take a class in any of these invaluable techniques, the focus of the course is learning the technique…
–how to protect ourselves from picking up customer “stuff”
–how to channel or run energy through our bodies into our hands
–how to approach and treat certain types of problems
–the body mechanics we use, etc.
What I see missing in the classes is how to assess the body healing type of the person with whom we are working. what do I want to say with that?
Over the years, doing energy healing from the 1980s to the present day, I began to realize that with each person, I was directing the flow of energy into their bodies in a different way. Yes, there is the technique to follow, but after a while the practice becomes almost second nature. I discovered that while I was “listening” to the bodies, I was “talking” to them differently. And I haven’t found that kind of body talk mentioned anywhere in the field of energy healing.
Of course, I believe that each energy healing therapist has a particular way that their internal dialogue with the client feels more comfortable or more natural. But what I discovered was that when I changed my own internal preference for how to channel or run the energy to match my client’s type of healing, her recovery occurred in shorter periods of treatment time.
So this is what I was shown over the course of my years in energy healing: There are three basic types of healing preferences that each body has: physical, mental, and spiritual. That seems to align very well with the complementary approach to body-mind-spirit healing, which is about the triune nature of being human. But what I mean is the Dominant energy healing preference. every body is wired for. Each person’s body responds most effectively to the type of energy transfer that matches its own type of healing energy.
So sometimes I found that I would be quietly talking to the body and explaining to it what it was going through and encouraging it to heal itself. “Yeah, you had a bad fall. You know your knee is hurt and you know how to fix it. You know how to do this.” This silent body talk flowed into his body along with the energy. This was obviously for a mental body healing type.
Other times I found myself praying. Sometimes it was a standard prayer, sometimes it was a flowing appeal to the person’s guides, angels, the Spirit of Christ, Mary, an archangel, or the Universal Healing Forces. Whatever I could think of to say, this prayer-like energy flowed into the spiritual body healing type.
And of course there’s the physical body type. This was challenging for me as most of the energy healing I do is in the biological field around the body and there is little to no physical contact. But the kind of healing the physical body needs feel it so that it responds more easily with its own internal healing mechanisms.
So I would touch the area of need, sometimes deeply, while my inner conversation with that person was more like a cheerleader: “Here it is. Go. Fix this. You can do it.” Or sometimes there wasn’t as much dialogue, just a lot of purposeful contact while I was managing the energy.
Back in the 1990s, I thought it would be easier for me to know in advance what type of body healing each client was before the session started so I could start talking about the body right away. Since I had been learning to dowse, I asked my pendulum what type it was. You can probably use the finger muscle test as well, if you’re familiar with that. It’s a simple yes or no elimination process when you ask what type of healing your client is.
There were also a few surprises I learned along the way. People I thought for sure would be one type turned out to be another, although their personalities clearly indicated otherwise. Like my father. Here was a guy who was totally immersed in 3-D. If I couldn’t see it, it didn’t exist. A very physical guy. When he got older and started having health problems (and he let me work on them, which wasn’t all the time), I dowsed and lo and behold, his healing body type of his was spiritual!
Then there’s my mom, who I thought for sure was the spiritual type, but dowsing told me she was physical! She believed in the ancient ways of laying hands, she had a strong connection to the church, which dad didn’t, and she was even known to have healing hands when she was younger (which was great for us as kids). . But her body responded more effectively to the approach of the physical body contact.
It reminded me of something I found in Edgar Cayce’s holistic health readings. He spoke of the “bodymind” as if it were something different or separate from the conscious mind. And now I understood that. The body has a mind of its own. And when we address that clearly, it more easily responds to whatever healing energy we deliver.
Another surprise was that some people have dual types. This is rarer, but when you do find it, it gives you more variety in how you frame your internal dialogue with the body.
Finally, one night in the late 1990s, while I was meditating, it was revealed to me that what my guide had shown me described how our Great Teacher, Jesus the Christ, healed people. For many of us, Christ’s healings in the New Testament were our first exposure to energy healing, even though we probably thought it was something magical or superhuman, not something we could all do (although He said we could). Perhaps even some of the priests and pastors of our formal churches did the “laying on of hands.” But think about this:
When Jesus healed the blind man, he put mud on the man’s eyes and rubbed them. Then the man could see. This was an example of the physical body type of healing. The man needed to feel that something was happening to his eyes.
When he told the cripple that his sins were forgiven, or to get up and walk, he was addressing a type of healing of the mental body. The man just got up and walked away. There was no contact with him.
Finally, when a woman touched the hem of His garment and He asked her why she did it, she replied that it was what she knew she had to do to be healed. Definitely spiritual or faith healing.
There is also another example of a type of healing that Jesus did and that was when the Roman soldier asked him to heal his good servant who was not present at the time. This was a beautiful and dramatic example of both distance healing for the servant and faith healing on the part of the soldier.
During the course of working with many clients over the years, my own guidance has revealed techniques and insights that have been invaluable in helping my people regain function and health sooner and more easily. You can also use this information for yourself during those times when you need to amplify more healing resources in your own body. I hope you find this information applicable in your own interactions with people in need.
