A Kind and Healthy Way to Feel Grounded After A Healing

Sometimes Healing Touch sessions can feel very subtle. Sometimes Healing Touch sessions can feel quite profound and life changing. In the last few weeks healings have been more on the dramatic side and many of my clients have been staying in an altered space for a longer period of time after the session ends.

This is actually wonderful, except that with our modern lifestyle we many times have to schedule our deep transformational opportunities between stressful work meetings and picking up the kids after school. Even though I book my clients two hours apart, that sometimes is just not enough time after the healing for clients to become grounded enough to get in the car and drive safely.

As I hinted in my post “Getting In Your Body”, an effective way to become more present is to eat some chocolate. I used to have sugary milk chocolate to give my clients (which really worked), but I felt uncomfortable because sugary chocolate is just not that healthy. I was also eating a lot of the chocolate myself.

I have found Kind bars to be the perfect grounding snack after an intense healing session. My favorite bar – Almond Walnut Macadamia + Protein – has 10 grams of protein, tastes great, is gluten-free and uses only “ingredients you can see and pronounce”. Says so right on the box. I also eat them between sessions and feel good about it.

I usually pull out the Kind Bars only when I feel my client is too spaced out to drive. So if you come for a healing and I don’t offer you a bar, just ask for one. I buy them by the case now.

Healing Touch For Animals

Healing Touch is as powerful and beneficial for animals as it is for humans. HT has been used for years to heal dogs, cats and horses who are recovering from illnesses or are coping with behavior issues. Healing Touch treatments are also very calming for animals who have been traumatized and need emotional centering.

There is a complete training program called Healing Touch for Animals®  that was developed by Healing Touch Practitioner and Instructor Carol Komitor. The first class was given in 1996 and has since taught hundreds of people how to balance, heal and support our animal friends.

This video also shows the use of tuning forks, essential oils and how to do distant healings. If you are new to my blog and love animals also check out an older post called “Healing Sessions For A Wolf.”

Enjoy.

A Quote from Anita Moorjani’s Book – Dying To Be Me

This book is about Anita Moorjani’s childhood, illness, near-death experience and the integration of that experience into her fearless new life. I was surprised at how much this book touched me because I have read so many other wonderful accounts of people’s near-death experiences. It might be because Anita focuses on the reasons she discovered for living and the lessons nearly dying taught her.

This is a great book. Check out the “Questions and Answers” section starting on page 163. I found this chapter particularly inspiring and I know I will be rereading these 20 pages for a long time.

Below is a section from the question “Wouldn’t too much self-love make people selfish and egotistical?” I have been thinking about the clearing and healing energy of self-love for the last few months and this beautiful passage by Anita describes it so clearly:

“In my culture, I was taught to put others first and myself last or not at all. I wasn’t taught to love myself or to value who and what I am. As a consequence, I had very little to offer others. Only when we fill our own cup with regard for ourselves, will we have any to give away. Only when we love ourselves unconditionally, accepting ourselves as the magnificent creatures we are with great respect and compassion, can we ever hope to offer the same to anyone else. Cherishing the self comes first, and caring for others is the inevitable outcome.
Selfishness comes from too little self-love, not too much, as we compensate for our lack. There’s no such thing as too much genuine affection for others. Our world suffers from too little self-love and too much judgement, insecurity, fear and mistrust. If we all cared about ourselves more, most of these ills would disappear.”

Working on a Creative Project? Try Clarity Breathwork.

Clarity Breathwork can help keep you centered when focused on a long-term creative project. Shooting a film, launching a new business or remodeling a home is about 10% creativity and 90% hard work. The creative idea is only a small part of the process, the real creativity comes in solving all the problems that arise when manifesting an idea on the physical plane.

About a month ago on a New Dimensions Radio Program, I heard Terry Tempest Williams make the statement, “Courage is sustained attention.”

What a brilliant insight. It really made me think how many clients I have supported who have succeeded in manifesting their visions. I know how much courage it took them to stick with their project.

While supporting clients committed to long-term creative projects, I have noticed this “Sustained Attention” mode is when personal insecurities, old memories and limiting beliefs often surface. Writing a book, launching a new business, or completing a new series of paintings requires addressing and releasing any energetic blocks that stops the creative flow so you can continue to move forward.

A limiting thought like, “I’m not good enough” has to go if you have to make a deadline. Old wounds or past rejections can suddenly constrict energy flow in the physical body by causing an old back injury to emerge or cause you to suddenly not have any time to work.

Commitment takes courage. Being supported during the creative process keeps the whole experience manageable, exciting and even fun. Private Clarity Breathwork sessions are especially powerful because they create the space that allows you to let these blocks surface and release in a safe and gentle way. The focus is on you, your process and your project.

Breathwork keeps you connected to your initial passion as your vision takes form.

Clarity Breathwork is perfect for cutting right through writer’s block. When I need ideas about what to write my next post on, I just do a breath session. I’m amazed at the guidance I receive.

Support yourself as you manifest your goals and vision. Clarity Breathwork makes the creative process a lot more fun!
