Holistic Healing

Free Will & Karma

As we read on let’s remember few facts about all of life:

1. We are free to choose our thoughts and actions. Note that thoughts themselves are a form of action, therefore we can refer to only action in this context.

2. Actions have consequences (outcomes).

3. We do not have the power to control the outcomes, because many factors are involved.

4. Long term actions accumulate consequences - often silently over long periods of time - and the energy required to release or reverse this accumulation will be proportionate to the energy invested. This applies to healing from anything. The proportions of energy to release something relative to the energy invested during accumulation will vary from person to person depending on their nature. The stronger the attachment, the more energy required.

5. You, and only you, can clean your Karmic balance sheet - see #4 above. The exceptions are rare, and this requires some discussion to explain. In most cases, even a profound Spiritual Healer is merely luring your soul one way or another with new impressions. Impressions of Hope, Faith, Imagined outcomes, Feelings (e.g. Love), or even reasoning (logical thoughts) appealing to your intellect. Internally, possibly in the subconscious, the dis-eased one still makes a choice to either move toward the new path offered by the Healer, or not. Profound Healers will move you even when you are not consciously aware of it - and the influence (affect) & result (effect) may not be apparent immediately.

How Healing Works and Our Process

A complete discussion of how healing works and my/our process is too much information to present on this webpage. Please read on with the warning that this is a limited presentation.

Healing Begins with Awareness

As with the warning lights on a car’s dashboard, we must be aware of - and heed - the signs that guide us to corrective action in order to find peace & happiness. If you are seeking healing, you must already be aware that something is not right - congratulations on that awareness.

For the healing process, we begin by turning Awareness - your first super-power, your core sentience - toward the body, mind, and spirit to gather facts and impressions. At some level, you already know what is wrong and what the causative factors are. If the problem and its causes are not apparent to the logical mind, then insight can often be gained through intuition, which is empowered through peace and stillness. (Don’t worry, I will guide you in this process. You are more intuitive than you may realize.)

Even without clarity on the cause, we can begin to address the symptoms using the Yoga & Āyurveda approach of treating with opposites. For example, if you are hot, we will “apply cold” and avoid “applying heat”. When we identify the cause, we will work on it directly, again treating with opposites.

The healing and growth path generally involves releasing old beliefs and behaviors and putting new beliefs and behaviors to practice. Sometimes cleansing and purification practices are required. The path may be any combination of allopathic (Western) medicine and complementary & alternative medicine practices that the client chooses.

Each step of the way, your Awareness will guide the process - both as feedback to me and in your decision process.

Ultimately YOU choose your healing path, and it is up to you to follow it.

This is your journey. You must choose.

My Role

My role is to show up with an open heart, clear sight/thinking, and the wisdom accumulated through studies and experience. (See my studies here.)

My first priority is to help you feel Hope & Peace - these are essential ingredients for healing in most cases. In Peace comes a clarity that will help your Awareness perceive what needs to be seen. Furthermore, Peace allows your natural (unconscious) healing systems to work.

As to Hope: I will be Truthful with you. Please realize there is reason for Hope even in the darkest days!

I am committed to providing a safe & loving space for clients. I draw from a mix of tools resulting from many years of study and first hand experience.

Your Healing & Growth is a Personal Journey

Your healing (from dis-ease) and growth is a personal journey. At each step, what you believe matters, even if it is not founded in facts from your experience or absolute truths. It is important that we remember (or learn) the fundamental truth: you are an eternal spirit/soul having a human experience. By learning this truth, your perspective will shift to a position of greater clarity and away from ego-centeredness. Shifting to this perspective is a journey. Your goals and energy investment will rise to higher purposes. From this higher perspective, your personal truths will become more apparent.

At each step of the journey, you are the person with the power to choose your direction and next step. Your support team members (physicians, family, and I) are merely here to help you.
