Tips For Healers - Grounding and Centering

on Thursday, May 13, 2010

In order to keep ourselves in good energetic balance as healers we need to develop a daily routine for keeping ourselves centered and grounded. The following techniques are a couple of my favourites:

RAINBOW CENTERING TECHNIQUE
This technique using the colours of the chakras is quick and easy to perform before giving an energy healing or at any other time you need to feel more centred.

Standing with feet slightly apart, imagine bringing red light (base chakra colour) from the earth and up through all the chakras, streaming out from the crown and flowing down the outside of the body to the feet. You will now be encased in rich, glowing red.

Repeat this procedure for each of the other chakras in the following order, allowing each new colour to be drawn up from the earth and cascade down the outside of the other colours around the body to the feet:

Orange (sacral chakra)
Sunshine Yellow (solar plexus chakra)
Emerald Green (heart chakra)
Sky Blue (throat chakra)
Indigo Blue (third eye chakra)
Violet (crown chakra)

Then imagine drawing up liquid metal gold from the earth, up through all the charkas, then allowing it to flow in a fine line down the outside of the other rainbow colours. Hear the metallic “clink” as the gold locks under your feet, encasing all the colours inside it. Now you are protected in a gold eggshell. Visualise merging all the rainbow colours around you into brilliant white light. Notice how calm, balanced and centred you feel.

With practice the colours can be drawn up through the body on the in-breath and cascade down the outside on the out-breath, making this procedure very quick.

ROOTS INTO EARTH GROUNDING
When doing healing work to clear energetic blocks and to raise the vibration either for yourself or others, it is very easy to become ungrounded. This may manifest as feeling tired and washed out, vague and unfocused or “off with the fairies”.

It is advisable before starting any healing session to imagine roots, like tree roots, extending from the soles of your feet deep into the earth to anchor you firmly there. Imagine the root system becoming quite complex and reaching all the way down to the molten core of the earth. You may even like to imagine your feet are buried in soil up to the ankles.

At the conclusion of the session just reinforce the roots from your feet are still going into the ground. If you are working with someone else you may also like to visualise roots coming from their feet at the end of the session to help ground them, as well as brushing their legs down firmly towards the feet.

Some Spiritual Laws of Life

THE LAW OF GRATITUDE
Heartfelt gratitude is a key to abundance. It unlocks the great resources of the Universe.

When you are totally grateful to a person for something they have done, that person feels the energy of thanks and is so overjoyed by it that they want to give you more. When you send out heartfelt thanks to the Universe for the blessings you have received, the divine energy responds by giving you even more blessings.

THE LAW OF ATTRACTION
You are a magnet: you attract like to you.

We attract into our lives people and situations that have similar vibrations to our own. The Universe provides mirrors for us to look into. The more vehemently we deny that we are magnets for a particular type of person or situation, the more our Higher Self is asking us to look at our shadow.

The inner attracts the outer. If something in your outer world is not what you want it to be, look inside and shift how you feel about yourself. This then allows different people and experiences to be attracted to you. For instance, the moment you truly commit to loving yourself, the external will change and you will attract someone committed to loving you.

Send out positive light and wait for a miracle to be drawn towards you.

THE LAW OF RESISTANCE
What you resist persists in your life and drains you of energy. Embrace what you do want and feel alive.

“Don’t”, “can’t”, “won’t” or “not” are words which invoke the Law of Resistance. For example, the thought, “I won’t find a perfect partner” resists the perfect partner. Never resist failure or poverty. Instead attract wealth and success. Always embrace the positive rather than resisting the negative. Victim consciousness, “poor me”, will trigger the Law of Resistance.

To dissolve a thought-form you have been resisting, write it down and then burn all your fears about it. Then write down what you do want and start to attract what you do want to you.

If you are having problems with a particular person, look within to resolve your own inner conflict, then that person must, under universal law, leave your life or change their attitude.


THE LAW OF PROJECTION
You do not know how anyone feels or is. Everything you see in another is a projection of an aspect of yourself.

The “pot calling the kettle black”. It is more comfortable to imagine that someone else has the qualities we wish to deny are within ourselves, for instance those who project their hatred think everyone else is out to get them.

We project our insecurities onto others, but because many of us do not own or believe in our magnificence, we also project our beautiful, gracious, powerful and brilliant parts onto others. Projecting yourself onto someone else prevents you from taking responsibility for self.

THE LAW OF ATTACHMENT
If you wish to be free, detach yourself from everyone and everything. It is a prerequisite for enlightenment.

You can have anything you wish in your life, but if your sense of self-worth or your happiness depends on it, then you are attached to it. Whoever or whatever you are attached to can manipulate you. You are no longer free. Energetic cords of attachment may form between people who have unresolved issues between them, even from lifetime to lifetime. Energy cords can also attach people to objects like houses and cars, or even intangible things like a need for love.

If you need someone to behave in a certain way in order to love them, it is not love, but rather attachment or conditional love. To dissolve the energetic cords of attachment to a particular person, forgive that person and yourself for what has happened in the past in order to free both of you. Use intention and visualisation to powerfully release your attachment to objects and intangible things.

Abundance and Manifestation

I am sure you remember in 2008 and the early part of 2009 the doom and gloom merchants, largely in the media, that would have had us believe the global economy was irretrievably collapsing. The fear thus generated in people caused them to feel like powerless victims completely unable to control the direction of their life.

Isn't it time we realise we have been controlled through media-generated fear and disaster for too long? It is now time to shift our thinking to the new paradigm of personal empowerment, switch off the 6.00pm TV news, start to reclaim our power and leave those doom and gloom merchants far behind.

My hypnotherapy training has taught me that the subconscious mind cannot discriminate between a vividly-imagined experience and a real one. So let’s start to create the New Story of the Life of our Dreams vividly in our minds and focus on this, rather than on our old story of hardship and struggle!

The Universal Law of Attraction draws to us whatever we focus on. It does not discriminate between perceived negative and positive things, but merely is a faithful servant bringing back to you an exact measure of what you focus on predominantly. You may wonder why you do your Affirmations religiously each day, yet nothing seems to change. It is necessary to look at how much of each day is spent in positivity and faith in your ability to manifest, as opposed to how much is subconscious negative self-talk, faulty beliefs and just automatically running old outmoded mind programs. For instance, no matter how many positive affirmations you make regarding being prosperous and a “money-magnet”, if you are subconsciously stuck in Poverty Consciousness, then guess what you get more of according to the Law of Attraction? You guessed it - more situations in your life to keep you stuck financially! This also holds true for relationships, health and all areas of your life. You get exactly what you predominantly focus on subconsciously. Time to change that subconscious programming?

Take some time now to think about what you want to achieve in your life this year, whether it be in relationships, career, health, finances or whatever. Be wild and free in your thinking, imagining yourself free of limitations. Write this Desire Statement down and speak it out positively with conviction every day. The Desire Statement must be written in the present tense, as if everything has already happened. Totally avoid negatives and statements of what you don’t want. Vividly tune into and imagine the fabulous feelings of joy, success and achievement at already having achieved all of those things you do want.

This will progressively bring you into Vibrational Alignment with all you seek, allowing those things to manifest effortlessly into your experience. A dense, heavy vibration keeps you stuck where you are, but raising your vibration through conscious intent, by creating more joy in your life and by reducing stress can soon get you to where you want to be. When you have worked through the layers of fear holding you back from what you want, then you are left with a deep inner knowing and the desired manifestation happens. The final key to manifestation is having the faith that it is there for you and letting go of the attachment to the outcome. A personal example to illustrate this is my being offered one of those time-share discount holiday deals over the phone a couple of years ago “in appreciation for participating in their survey”. Now we had just received 7 days free accommodation on the Gold Coast, Australia, I said jokingly to my daughter, "Now I just need to manifest the airfares!” As I had let go of the outcome completely, more because I had said it as a joke than anything else, the next day after business in Canberra, I won the $3000 jackpot in the lottery at the club we went to for dinner! The strange thing was I had this deep inner knowing that I would win it as soon as I bought the ticket - a completely unwavering faith. I had manifested not only the airfares for 3 to the Gold Coast, but also all the other expenses and spending money too within 24 hours. Wow!

Eft and A Novel Approach

on Monday, May 10, 2010

Let me share a powerful technique I have found for assisting anyone struggling to release their old patterns. Many of you will already have heard of Emotional Freedom Technique, commonly called EFT, and may even have tried it. It aims to rebalance the body by systematically tapping on various meridian points around the face and upper body and has been used successfully to treat anything from fear of heights to confidence. There are a number of versions of it, but I particularly like Brad Yates’ 9-point tapping system:

Decide on the problem you want to address and rate your current discomfort level with it out of 10.

Choose your Set-up Sentence to reflect this problem in the format, "Even though I have this (name the problem), I choose to love and accept myself." Then systematically tap 5 -10 times on each of the following nine points in sequence.

1. Karate Chop Point - using the index and middle finger of one hand, tap repeatedly on the side of the other hand in the hollow just below the little finger while saying your set-up sentence 3 times.

2. Inner Eyebrow Point - using the same fingers for tapping as before, repeat the name of the problem, for instance, “This feeling of unworthiness” 3 times at each of the remaining points.

3. Outside Eye Socket

4. Under Eye Socket

5. Under Nose

6. Chin Point, just under lip

7. Collar Bone Point - make a loose fist with one hand and tap 5 -10 times at the top of the sternum, so it connects with just below both collarbones. Remember to repeat the set-up phrase 3 times.

8. Underarm at Bra Level - 4 fingers tapping this larger area

9. Crown Point - with your hand cupped as if you are holding a tennis ball, tap around in a circle on the top of your head, to tap across multiple meridians simultaneously.

Once you have finished this circuit of tapping re-rate your discomfort level with the problem. Ideally the rating out of 10 will have dropped. Repeat the tapping and set-up phrase as above until the discomfort level has dropped to zero or it stops changing. You may find other related set-up phrases (other aspects of the problem) may also be required to get the rating to a zero.

*An interesting way I have also found to use EFT is to record your own positive affirmations and then listen to the recording as you tap the above points in sequence in repeating circuits. This allows you to focus continuously on the positive and not on "the problem".

Clearing Anger and Resentment

Recently I was sitting in my parked car waiting to collect my daughter from her drama lesson when an obviously angry woman in a small car tried several times to back into the space in front of me, which was easily long enough for a large car. I noted she had little skill in parking after several unsuccessful attempts that saw her hit the kerb at near right angles each time. Eventually she got her car in and backed it up very close to my car. She opened her door and gesticulated what I thought was, "Can I back up any more?" to which I politely signalled, "No". I went back to reading my book, only to be confronted shortly afterwards by this woman demanding I open my car window so she could hurl a tirade of abuse at me! Apparently her initial gesticulations had been intended to get me to back up further, effectively onto the bumper bar of the car behind me. Her miscommunication that caused me to give her a "no" signal released her rage. Reeling from the verbal attack as she stormed off, I was not given any chance of resolving the miscommunication.

She left the scene filled with rage feeling I had been deliberately horrible to her and I felt my energy field had been shattered. All completely unnecessary if she had communicated her wants clearly in the first place. I did however ask for light and love to be sent to her.

How many angry people do you know who feel the whole world is out to get them and their experiences just seem to reinforce this? How many of these people have few if any friends? Could it be something they themselves are doing that perpetuates their situation? From my experience with the angry woman above, it certainly seems some people do. I would certainly give her a wide berth if our paths crossed again! Take a long, hard look at yourself and be honest - could you be one of these angry people? Maybe not on the surface, but do you harbor lingering resentment about past emotional hurts and grievances, which become energetically locked in your body, creating corrosive energy within? If so, it is time to release and resolve it before your greatest punishment is not to those who wronged you, but to yourself, as you increase the likelihood of degenerative diseases like diabetes type II, cancer, especially liver cancer, and heart problems.

My all time favorite technique I have developed for shifting any stuck emotions, especially anger and resentment, doesn’t have a fancy name and is extremely simple, yet deceptively powerful:
- Sit or lie in a quiet place where you won't be disturbed
- Start thinking about a person or situation that makes you feel angry
- Explore where you feel this discomfort of anger in the body
- Breathe into this area for several minutes and become aware of the form (shape, size, colour, etc) of this anger
- On the in-breath draw the energy of this stuck anger up to the throat
- On the outbreath say in your mind whatever comes to you, even if it starts off as just a toning sound
- Soon you are likely to tap into the heart of the anger and words of rage will be powerfully expressed in your mind
- Allow your whole body to be fully involved in the release process if necessary
- Underneath the anger you are likely to encounter tears
- Continue with the releasing of trapped anger in your mind until it feels complete
- Allow that 'energy void' to now be filled with whatever it needs for healing, such as the vibration of calm, peace or white light.
- Check back to what you were thinking about initially and see if there are any more areas of angry discomfort. If so repeat the process.
- Completion is when you can think of the original person or situation in a neutral way, free of any anger charge.
