ATTUNEMENT FOR CONTACT HEALING

A spiritual healer must have respect for the Source of Healing Energy which should be received into the clearest possible channel. It is important that the healer should be relaxed, in order to reach the highest state of attunement.

By raising the consciousness the healer will intuitively use energy form the highest level available to him or her at the current stage of development. This can then be absorbed and passed on to the patient.

To reach a higher level, the healer has to be spiritually motivated. When the brain waves are raised to an alpha pattern, the consciousness raises and expands. The healer may reach this expanded level of consciousness in a variety of ways e.g. through prayer, giving attention to the breath through personal ritual etc.

Thoughts should be focus on Love, Peace and Light. To enable the energy field around the body to develop more radiant colors the healer needs to fill the mind with thoughts of Love, Peace and Healing energy coming into the body.

Energy can be visualized coming through from the Higher self with beautiful colors, such as rose pink, good shades of blue and green. Golden light will assist in raising the thoughts.

When warmth, love, peace and light fill the mind and body consciousness, new possibilities are created and energy is brought to the person. The healer and the patient should be at one in this light that has been allowed to shine.

The healer releases this energy from the whole being, through the heart and hands to the patient. The channeling should continue for as long as the healer feels that energy is flowing.

It is important that when the session is over, the healer separated mentally and physically from the patient and circles both of them in their own light.

Both should then be firmly grounded and returned to a level suitable for everyday living.

I would ask you to read, then re-read and finally try out this attunement meditation. While it may help you to close your eyes while attuning, obviously you cannot do this until you remember the sequence. Further, the actual act of when you are trying to relax. This can be overcome by either recording the attunement sequence on a tape recorder, making sure you leave plenty of time (I suggest the pauses below, but take longer periods between speech if you need them), or you can have someone read it to you slowly with the indicated pauses between each instruction.

ATTUNEMENT —- THE KEY TO HEALING

Sit down on a chair or the floor, whichever you prefer. Do not lie on a bed in case you fall asleep.

Close your eyes. Breathe deeply, but in a relaxed manner. Release the stiffness from the body with every breath you exhale.

Pause for ten seconds.

Let the tension drain from you. Let it drain from the head, neck, shoulders, down your arms and out through you fingers.

Pause for twenty seconds.

Now let the tension drain from the chest, heart, stomach, hips, down through thighs to your knees, down the lower legs to your ankles and out through your feet and toes.

Pause for twenty seconds.

As you breathe, sense the beat of your heart; let it slow to a steady, slow throb. Sense the beat of your pulse at you neck and at your wrists. Imagine that the beat is in time with the pulse of the universe.

Pause for twenty seconds.

Let your whole self be in accord with the universal life force. Be at one with all. You are now at peace.

Pause for fifteen seconds.

Gently, when you wish, let yourself return to the tempo of the day. But without the tension you had before you started the meditation for attunement.

Pause for ten seconds.

Wriggle your fingers; let them rub on the palms of your hands.

How about that? It needs only a few minutes to go through the sequence, yet many people tell me it is like taking a spiritual shower bath.

I do not expect you to go through this attunement for every patient, but it will be a great assistance to you if you can undertake it before a healing session.

As you become more experienced you will find that you do not need as long before you become attuned. Eventually you may well be able to attune in short time indeed.

Now, when you attune to a patient prior to healing, you need to be in a relaxed state. In this state you will be generating alpha rhythms from your brain instead of the beta rhythms that are generated by most people in a normal waking state.

A SECOND CHANCE

To benefit from healing in depth you must be prepared to make a fresh start. This involves asking for forgiveness from those you have hurt. Be it by intent or when you something without thinking which did not work out too well. You also have to forgive those who have hurt you.

If you, as an individual, try to impede the flow of life you will be pushed aside, getting bruised and hurt in the process. If you decide to flow along with the river you can succeed.

The first thing you can do is to get a large piece of paper. Think back as far as you can to you earliest childhood. Trace your progress through life writing down:

• Any hurt that anyone has done to you.
• Any action that has caused you to suffer.
• Each time you felt unfairly or unjustly treated.
• Any situation that caused you to resent either the person concerned or the circumstances involved.

Having done this, and please do not hurry the process, go slowly through each item and fully forgive each and everyone.

Next, take another piece of paper and write down:

• Any action in your life of which you are ashamed.
• Anything that you have said or done which has hurt someone, even though you did not intend this to happen.

Mentally ask the forgiveness of each person, alive or dead.

To be effective this system must be carried out in depth and your forgiveness must be genuine. Once cleared do not go back and think ‘if only’ or ‘had I’. Let it go. You have now learnt the lesson. Having done this burn the papers. Do not re-read them or show to, or discuss them with anyone.

You now have a new start. You have wiped clean the floppy disc containing the nasty parts of your memory. In the process you will find some of the unconscious contents come back into conscious memory and can also be released.

You may find that as you work through, ‘A second chance’ there will be people whom you are unable to forgive. If so, do not agonize too long but move on to the people or events that you can forgive. This will reduce the overall internal pressure. Mind you, you will have to return to you sticky point(s) later.

I suggest that, once you have gone through ‘a second chance’, you do the sequence again, in a week or ten days later. If you are still unable to forgive many person or situation (i.e. “an act of God”) work through it at monthly intervals until you feel you are completely free of the dross.

You may find, eventually, that there is still one major injustice that has hurt you so much that you just cannot forgive.

Even after you have cleared out all the dross and climbed the mountain of forgiveness, you will, in the course of everyday living, collect further resentment. I know I do. So my advice to you is to work through ‘A second chance’ at least once a year and release that resentment and unseen stress that can build up and indeed, unless you are a saint, will build up.

This is a practical method of self – help which will help us all as human beings. Very simple and easy.

The universe is unfolding perfectly.
