CHAPTER 6: EXERCISE, YOGA, MEDIATION AND PRAYER
DAILY INVOCATIONS/PRAYER/INTENTION
Over the years I have come to appreciate the incredible
power that the mind has over the body - and taking it one step
further, the influence that the spirit has on the mind and body.
Years ago I began encouraging patients to enliven their
spiritual awareness, enabling them to create and make
changes possible in their lives. Once cleared of the old
energies and limiting thought patterns, through the various
means discussed previously, the human being is a vessel ready
to receive what is truly their birthright.
When I was about five years old I had a favorite puzzle,
a little board with tiny squares that slid around. In the middle
was a picture of two hands in prayer while around the edges
were pieces that could be manipulated, and when correctly
organized, spelled out the message: "Ask and it shall be given
you." Doing this puzzle over and over again impressed my
higher mind with this fundamental truth and I am extremely
grateful for this profound early lesson. I have passed it along
to many others.
Anything that we desire in life - whether it is better
health, relationships or jobs - is within our grasp if we first
ask
our higher selves for it. Unfortunately, most of us don't ask,
so
doors remain closed to us, or if they are open we may be afraid
or unaware of which ones to walk through. I urge people to
think fully and deeply about what they ask for, and why and
then detach from the outcome. Imagine that you have mailed
a letter: Send the thought, then trust in its delivery. This
technique is very powerful when an individual does not
become obsessed or resentful about the outcome. It is also a
way to help bring the body into alignment with the higher self
because when we do this we enliven the mind-body
connection. By asking for an end to our pain or illness, and by
asking to understand its cause, we learn life's lessons and
begin to understand our own truth.
This leads me to the topic of prayer. When most people
pray they ask their higher power to give them something.
I
feel that prayer should also focus on asking for removal
of
whatever is stopping them from receiving what they are
asking for. As described in Chapter 4 on emotions, we are filled with body-mind
programs, some in alignment with the truth of the universe, some completely
false. The body does not judge which are "good" and which are "bad", it merely
follows the program. We should ask our higher power to dissolve any
blockages, programs, or attitudes that hamper us from reaching our
potential. When asking for healing I suggest that patients ask
for the removal of anything - physical, emotional, chemical or
spiritual - that is impeding their health. It may be something
that they may have created or contributed to, such as issues
with a mother or father, or maybe past hurts or resentments. It
is not necessary to find the answers immediately, but more
important to ask with intent. People can ask for guidance and
clarity so that they can finally cancel any negative patterns
and
stop the damaging dance that they have been going through.
Many people are stuck in unhealthy relationships,
which they blame on others. Instead of being victims they
should place their attention on what they wish to clear away.
One might ask to remove or heal the emotions that are causing
the person to feel victimized. Then, just as after fasting we
eat
nourishing food, a person can start to focus on what they
desire in a relationship and make that happen. I always ask:
What do I need to learn from this? What did I do to create or
allow this situation that is causing disharmony? When you get
what you asked for, remember to thank the universe and
yourself - because you are co-creators.
We exist on many levels. The most obvious is the
physical, but keep in mind there are emotional and spiritual
levels too. As we journey through life we encounter unique
experiences and emotions. Some we wish to remember and savour, some we prefer to let go of. We want to remember
those that embody lessons that can help us. Dreams, for
example, may hold deep messages from our higher selves that
we could benefit from even if we cannot completely
understand them at the time.
At the same time many experiences are neither useful nor beneficial anymore, and
some are actually holding us back through fear or anxiety. On a physical level
our bodies work like computers collecting information and storing it. Just as a
computer will crash if overloaded with information, so too will the body become
lethargic and weighed down. Many experiences get "stuffed" inside because we
need to get on with life, do our jobs, be effective parents, etc. This means
there may not have been time to properly grieve when a friend died, or to think
through a hurtful situation. The brain may not have time to process the
experience all at once, so the body stores it away for future reference.
Periodically, we should check our files, reflect upon them and then download
those that are no longer beneficial, desirable or life supporting.
The important concept here is: "Out with the old, in
with the new." This does not mean avoiding the truth about
ourselves and others, or deflecting issues without looking at
them. The idea is to assist the body to cleanse itself of
obstructions that may have become impediments to working
through issues and stresses. I urge people to take advantage of
Neural Organization or Neuro Emotional techniques, to read
books on personal growth, see counselors or therapists,
discuss feelings and opinions with others, and take time to be
alone and in silence. This is how we begin to download and
begin to understand others and ourselves. As we become
clearer and lighter, our lives will begin to change on physical,
emotional, and spiritual levels.
Below is a prayer of self-clearing that I have created for
patients. They have all reported dramatic changes in their
lives when they use it. Close your eyes, take a deep breath and
when you feel centred and relaxed, begin to repeat the
sentence below. Remember, it is not so much the specific
wording that is important, but the intention that matters (i.e.
out with the old, in with the new) and I have underlined the
key elements to emphasize what we are trying to accomplish
here:
"On all levels of my being, I wish to release the cause of
all energies that I may harbour for any reason that are not
serving the evolution of my higher self. I forgive myself and
everyone for everything, now and forever."
You can go as far as your will will allow with this
invocation, bearing in mind that the following four points are
the key to co-creation with your higher power:
-
For clearing "on all levels of your being" you need to
surrender your own personal concept of what may be causing
your pain, condition or situation. This frees your higher mind
to reach back to the source event. For example, you may find that you have
trouble in your life with making and saving money. So you use the invocation to
ask to remove all the negative events that have occurred in your lifetime that
would relate to why you are having difficulty attracting financial stability and
security. What you haven't realized that there may be a possibility that the
original time when your energy memory or "soul" first had the trauma or
experience of lack or poverty was in another lifetime. As a child you were sent
to church and imprinted or programmed that there are no past lives. You are now
an adult and may think differently but your body still has the program that can
not allow access to past life memories because it believes "past lives don't
exist". So before you process the issue of money and abundance, you must first
do a clearing of your circuits around letting go of limited beliefs around the
past, present, and future. I am not saying that there are or aren't past
lives or future lives. What I am saying is to ask the universal intelligence to
help you separate the wheat from the chaff. You are giving permission by asking,
which removes all possibility that you are a victim, and allows true healing to
take place.
Imagine how many different lives and roles you may have
possibly lived in the history of time. Maybe not just on this planet, either.
Imagine when you were one with universal consciousness before you separated as a
piece of the whole. You may have been a son to your present day wife or best
friend. You may have been a rapist. You may be clear in you physical and
emotional body on attaining abundance as in the example above, but never
realized that part of your aura still held a part of the memory, so the whole
part of you (body, mind, and energy field), the holo-gram, was not completely
cleared. as in a hologram, if one part has memory of anything, all part still
hold the meomory.
This is the power of really comprehending what it means
to intend clearing "on all levels of being".
-
This request can work on spiritual, emotional, physical
and
chemical levels to clear whatever needs to be released -
if you
allow it. For example, if you
have a shoulder pain, is your
intent to clear the pain on only a physical level, or are you
willing to explore the emotion that may lie behind the pain?
My advice is, do not limit your healing by a mistaken belief in
the underlying cause.
-
Be willing to forgive all participants - including
yourself.
For example you may have an issue with trust. You may be
holding onto old fear patterns based on a prior event where
your mate was untrustworthy. Open your channel around
issues of trust and relationships and once you have done that,
ask to clear all its causes - forever. Next, visualize and let
the
body feel what it would be like to be in a relationship where
you are completely trusting and trusted. Ask for what you
really want, then recognize it when it has arrived, and
walk
through that open door.
-
Make the changes permanent. Your intention should be to
clear this particular issue in the past, present and future, so
you
never have to deal with it again. Look honestly at the issues,
release the negative, and will it to be permanent, i.e.
now and
forever. If you wish to modify it at a later time in life, you are freely
entitled to do so. This is part of growth and wisdom.
This technique can be adapted to any situation. For
example, if you are having trouble finding a trustworthy mate,
your awareness has identified a source of disharmony in your
life. To change it you merely follow the invocation,
specifically asking to clear the cause of why you keep
attracting untrustworthy partners.
If a pain is bothering you, try touching the point of pain,
doing the invocation and asking to release its cause. Be
patient, and be careful what you ask for because chances are
you will receive it, and usually pretty quickly. When it does
come there may be emotions involved that you never
considered before. This is usually a blessing in disguise to
help you heal and to move on, so never fear. Receive what
comes with love, even it if does not feel great at the moment
and keep in mind, it is the possibility of having a dream come
true that makes life interesting.
Remember that you create all the situations in your life
so instead of blaming the outside world and others for your
unhappiness or dissatisfaction, take responsibility and will it
to change. Most importantly do not try to change others for
they are responsible for themselves. Rather, ask to clear the
energies that you carry that are making you respond
negatively to them. Undoing something means it is no longer
a statement of who you want to be.
On the positive side, do not be ashamed to ask for things
that you would like, such as a healthy body, happy loving
friends, security for your family and a fulfilling job. Do not
be
afraid to ask the universe for anything. This is the power of cocreation.
When you ask for something, also ask to be released
from any thought pattern or belief system that is blocking you
from receiving whatever you have just asked for. I frequently
encourage people to ponder this saying: "We are spiritual
beings having a human experience as well as human beings
having a spiritual experience."
Over the years I have been able to not only sense human
energy fields or "auras" but also to correct imbalances in them.
How I do this is beyond the scope of this book, however, I
assure you that there is nothing mystical about it. All of us
are
capable of changing our energy fields in a split second and
assisting others to heal their energy fields too. Reiki,
therapeutic touch, pranic healing, the laying on of hands, and a
whole range of other techniques address the concept of healing
through balancing the human energy field.
When I help to clear a patient's neuro-emotional
"complex" I frequently find that their energy body changes as
well, and these changes are often consistent and predictable
for different emotional states. After making a correction to the
physical or emotional body I can sense immediate changes in
the energy body or aura. To verify what I am sensing, I can
utilize muscle testing by holding my hand six to eight inches
over the patient's body and seeing if there is a weak muscle
response. Scientists use high tech equipment to authenticate
the presence of human energy fields but I think that one day,
through further scientific testing, it will be shown that muscle
testing procedures can also be a tool used to verify the
presence of human energy fields. This would involve further
research. I have certainly met many people who can see auras,
and who have verified these effects while watching me
perform a treatment. Similarly I have many patients who have
never known about the presence of human energy fields yet
can immediately sense what I am doing, much to their
amazement.
One patient in particular has a remarkable ability. She
is a great lady and a wonderful mother who ensured that all
her family came to see me before she sought treatment herself.
She had no knowledge of auras or energetic bodywork, other
than having been slightly introduced to my work by her
family. Without any explanation of what I was going to do, I
began treatment and in less than a minute, much to my
surprise, she started smiling and saying, "Oh my God." I asked
her what was happening and she reported seeing large waves
of colour swirling around her body. As I moved my hands above specific areas of
her body that I was treating, her eyes remained closed. She said: "Oh, it's blue
around my legs, now it's green over my chest...." Then as I moved my hands to
her head she immediately said: "Now my head is green. Oh, it's becoming purple
on my face." I have seen her four or five times during the last three or four
years and every time she has a similar sensory experience. She says she does not
see auras at any other time, but is always amazed by the Aurora Borealis like
effect she experiences during treatments. It certainly adds credence to the
saying that we are "light beings" and the fact that many people can actually see
this reality.
It's time we awakened to our higher senses and became respectful of them, for
if human energy fields exist then surely other energy fields may act upon them.
We are constantly bombarded with invisible forces from computers, microwaves,
cell phones, overhead transmission wires and much more, and these external
influences may interfere with our own energies. We should look at their impact
and consider them as a variable in health care today. Certainly this is becoming
more and more evident as the Unified Field theory of modern physics now informs
us that all matter - whether living or inanimate - is made up of particles
vibrating at different frequencies.
