My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
Today I thought I’d share with you another passion of mine.Several of my long time readers are aware of my other blog Foot Notes, where I share information on the alternative healing modalities that I practice.
Not only do I use these modalities to help support my own life, but I also share them once a week at a non-denominational spiritual ministry, that offers holistic healing services to those in the community infected and affected with HIV.
Sharing my work here, has enabled me to see what true healing is.
Sometimes the human body is what it is. And even if there may never be a physical healing…a healing of the spirit is always possible.
The most wonderful quality about this ministry, is that they remain spiritually neutral.
The room in which I practice has no statues or pictures of any specific deities, so that the clients are free to experience their own spiritual journey. When sharing my work, I speak very little, so that the client can interpret their own experience. If they would like to share their feelings with me, I listen, however I never talk about my own beliefs.
I think of myself solely as a facilitator, who allows for the spiritual connection to be made.
And then it’s up to the client and their beliefs to communicate.
I think of my work more, in that it touches the body…to reach the spirit.
When I first got into alternative healing, my only interest was in how I would help others to heal on a physical level. However, not long after I began this journey, did I sense that my path would take a different turn.
I realized that the work I was intended to do, was to be with those individuals who were at point in their life of total surrender…allowing themselves to let go and be supported by the grace of spirit.
In turn, this work has taught me to approach my own life healing in the same way.
There is a power far great than myself, which asks that I trust and allow it…
I’ve felt it hold me, when I am afraid. I’ve seen it supply me, when I have nothing. I’ve heard it guide me, when I am lost. And I’ve felt it comfort me, when I am in pain.
This work has opened my eyes to what true healing is.
The spirit…
