My journey as a healer started five years ago when I began to see auras. Since then, through experience, education, enlightenment, and sharing with many people, I have grown to become more than I was before. I have learned to look at the world through different eyes, and to gain an understanding of my existence. I have felt spiritual connection with god (or chi or the life force, whatever you wish to call it). I have developed physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
On a physical level, my senses have become enhanced. I have heard voices, I have seen energy lines connecting people, and I have perceived the existence of a human energy field both visually and through touch. By waving my hand over someone, I can feel areas that are imbalanced. My hands emit energy, often felt as heat. Sometimes the heat in my hands is so intense, it interferes with my ability to feel distinct patterns in another’s energy field. Instead, I will often use my arm, the back of my hand, and even my face to feel the energy emitted by someone that I am working on. When I first started training in this area, I wondered if the teachers were misleading me. Now that I have felt it myself, I am sure that it exists.
On a mental level (and yes, I realize that some people think I am mental), I learned that not everything is logical. This was a big step for me, being male and mathematical. The discovery I made was that if you forego trying to prove everything, and instead substitute the speculation of ‘what if’, many things become possible. Leave the scientific method to the scientists and see what works.
My awareness has increased, as I frequently bring my focus into the moment. I realized that much of my thinking was about things that were not immediately happening. I learned to identify worrying, analysis, expectations, anticipation, judgment, anxiety, anger generation, and re-living of the past. That is not to say that I do not experience these thought patterns, simply that I have become aware of the difference between ‘being in the moment’ versus ‘generated thought’. Once I became aware, I had the choice of continuing the thoughts, or stopping them. This is not thought control; it is simply thought-awareness.
On an emotion level, I discovered that many feelings, particularly ones I preferred not to have, were related to old beliefs, issues and patterns. I found that perception of any situation plays a major role in the emotions that are generated, and by changing perception, the emotion itself can be changed. Again, this is not to say that I am emotionless, or uncaring, or unfeeling. Instead, I am aware of whether emotions are stimulated externally or internally.
Throughout my growth process, I have identified emotions that are related to old experiences. Memories of incidents from our past, particularly childhood when we were most vulnerable, can remain within us and affect our lives. Whenever I find myself in a situation of discomfort, I identify whether the emotions I am feeling are related to the actual situation, or a pattern that I have held from previous experience. Like my progress on the mental level, my emotional progress stems not from control or masking but of identification and choice. By understanding what drives our emotions, we can choose to release ancient pain.
On a spiritual level, I have developed comfort with a belief system that gives me hope. I maintain a positive outlook, not only for myself, but also for our species and our universe. The spiritual connection is not just between a higher entity and myself, but also with all living beings. I am only beginning to understand and connect to the life force and its many mysteries, but I am pleased with my progress.
Over the years, I have experienced many changes, and yet deep within I am still the same person. I have given up nothing, and gained everything. This is the transformation that I am undergoing, and that I wish for you and all others; to find peace while growing as an individual, to push your learning beyond limits, and to learn to love all.
