Distance Healing Works! Here’s How.

By

I know it can still be hard to believe. After all, we have always had to visit the doctor or practitioner in order to be taken care of. We are used to it. So how is it possible that a healer can help you when you aren’t even in the same room?

As technology has advanced over the last decade, there are more opportunities to email, text and video chat with our healthcare providers, which, of course, saves time, money and gas. It also allows us to widen our field of who we use, drawing on practitioners from all over the country and the world.

Energy healing can also easily be done remotely, with the same benefits as an in-person session. Technology may connect us audibly and visually, but our energetic connection is instantaneous and ever-present and even more powerful than anything our five sense can offer us. Let me explain how this can be, using information from the study of quantum physics.

Quantum physics has proven that all matter is interconnected by waves, spread out through time and space. We are all literally connected to the furthest reaches of the cosmos.

In reality, nothing in the world is solid. Instead, we are only a collection of charged energy particles having a relationship. Amazingly, our subatomic particles exist as probabilities waiting for direction, coming into their own realities by our consciousnesses.

Our particles also emit lightwaves. These light emissions together create a highly ordered subatomic network of cooperating particles, communicating through common electromagnetic fields. As they communicate, resonant waves gather and begin acting like one giant wave and one giant subatomic particle. This phenomenon is called coherence.

Coherence is also the process by which one person can heal another: the electromagnetic fields of the healer and the recipient collide and begin to communicate with each other. The conscious focus of our intentions is akin to a tuning fork causing the tuning forks of other things in the universe to resonate at the same frequency.

This occurs equally well over long distances, in group settings or in person.

Having practiced this form of coherence for 20 years, I have learned to connect deeply to your energy field. My first perception is usually the physical or emotional issue that is your first priority. In conjunction with our guides, angels, masters and teachers — the Healing Team — I am able to trace these issues to their inception. The Healing Team and I then delete and release the cellular memory of these traumas from your past, your family lineage, your ancestors or past lifetimes. You are left with a greater sense of peace, clarity and neutrality to present-day situations.

Whether on the phone or on a video screen, my full focus is on you. You, meanwhile, can be anywhere that is comfortable and convenient: your home, private office, or even the car. And afterwards, you can rest or move back into your day slowly.

My clients who take advantage of distant session all report being able to feel the energy, feel the movements, changes and clearings, see colors and images, and receive messages from their guides.

Want more info? There have been over 150 studies of remote healing of variable scientific rigor. Here are just a few examples:

Edward von Dyke experimented with healers sending positive intentions to algae. He qualifiably showed that algae was able to receive healing emissions through a healers’ thoughts/intentions, as though it was being bombarded with Light.

Gary Schwartz’ experiments used the talents of 20 master energy healers sending intentions to one of each pair of leaves. In a majority of the cases, the leaves’ light was definitively diminished or raised, depending on the intention of the healer.

The late doctor Elisabeth Targ devised a highly-controlled pair of studies during the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s, in which 40 healers of all kinds from across America were shown to improve the health of terminal AIDS patients, even though the healers had never met of been in contact with their patients.

Lynn McTaggart set up experiments in which people sent healing intentions to their subjects (human, animal or plant) intermittently as well as at regular schedules. The results: there was a consistent identifiable effect in the light emissions of the subjects at exactly the times the intentions were sent to them.

These studies and more demonstrate that we have a quantum bond with our world. Our thoughts influence this bond. Our perception of the world outside of ourselves occurs through a constant conversation with our surroundings. Moreover, our conversations occur both with words and with Light.

We are indeed boundless, multi-dimensional beings.

On Forgiveness

By

Question: We talked in the last book (4th-Dimensional Healing) about the detriment of holding onto toxic thoughts and feelings. Can you go more into depth about that?

Answer: The conscious mind is built to reason and reflect and take appropriate action as needed. But it is your subconscious mind that rules most of your decisions. The subconscious is the totality of all of you– your past, your family’s past (your heritage, genetic lineage, epigenetics), and your experiences over lifetimes. Your subconscious mind holds an intelligence of safety that spans lifetimes.

Unresolved feelings, memories, beliefs about life and beliefs about death, are ever present even when you are not consciously aware of them. They help create the fabric of who you are as an individual. But you are also ever-pliable — made to change, grow and improve. You have the ability to uncover the subconscious mind’s conclusions, and release obsolete ideas and choose new ones.

Toxic thoughts and feelings cause you pain, even when you truly believe them to be true. They eat away at you, causing you to age and lose vitality. They lower your vibration, diminishing the Light you emanate into the world.

Your feelings are your humanness. Honoring and processing hurt, anger, resentment, etc., and taking into account what is yours and what it the other person’s, is the first part of any process. Over time you choose what you want to live with and what you don’t. Time offers the maturity and experience necessary to reevaluate your thoughts and beliefs.

Physical discomfort or illness can highlight subconscious feelings and beliefs. These are optimal opportunities to delve more deeply into what is held energetically, physically and metaphysically. When yo sees all discomfort as self-imposed, you can take responsibility for investigating and exposing the internal sources.

Healing the mind and body requires you to restructure, re-pattern and, finally, forgive.

Restructure: Change a framework or erasing the thought. Choose a new way to perceive or believe. Use the experiences you have built over time to reframe beliefs developed by your less mature mind or less developed soul.

Re-pattern: Clear out old energy, break up energetic patterns using physical and energetic therapies. (These may include acupuncture, yoga, massage, physical therapy, somatic therapy, Reiki, EMDR, craniosacral therapy, etc.) Develop new stories and ways of using words to describe past situations and events. This will have a direct effect on how you feel.

Forgiveness: This is the ultimate change agent, no matter whether you are forgiving yourself or someone else. Forgiveness comes from understanding and compassion. Ultimately it is the way of freeing yourself from the confines of negativity or toxicity.

You may forgive yourself by recognizing that you have a new understanding based on more information and experience. You may recognize that your intentions were never to harm, even though you harmed yourself in the end. This requires humility– a diminishing of the ego– and self-honesty.

You may forgive others by recognizing the same– all human beings are fallible, succumbing to their own fears and misguided intentions. People who act out violently, or even evilly, are often so far removed from their true humanity as to have no connection to their actions and the subsequent consequences. They are “out of their minds”. Forgiveness comes when one recognizes there is no benefit to holding onto the memories or allowing them to shape one’s life. And true complete forgiveness comes when you remember that, on the soul level, no one is a victim. There is always a higher-level agreement. Instead, use all experiences as opportunities to evolve with compassion.

Forgiveness is what you do for yourself, not for the other person. Forgiveness is when you know you are ready to stop holding onto those feelings. Forgiveness comes when you are ready to heal. Forgiveness is your release.

What Are Your Thoughts?

By

The chaos in the world is starting to get to me. It’s hard to stay away from the news — something I have done for the last 30 years — but suddenly I can’t stop looking to see what new atrocity has occurred. At the core, I believe that this is a time when underlying emotions are rising to the surface to be seen, understood and healed. But, whew! It’s challenging to be confronted by so much all at once.

Look, we’re all human, and it is the human condition to have fears and emotions about everything, and to judge situations as they happen. However, it is inappropriate to let fear be the overriding emotion upon which we base our decisions in the now or our assumptions of the future.

The best way to be a positive contribution to our own lives is to examine our thoughts — all of them, down to the smallest reactions and the smallest inconveniences. We must learn to flip the switch from negative to neutral when reacting to a situation that is out of our control. We can be vigilant about our thoughts and projections onto other people and events. It is also important to be checking in with our own prejudices, judgments and minor aggressions.

We can choose to bring light into our lives regardless of what is happening outside of ourselves, even while staying compassionate and caring. We have so many luxuries in this country that others don’t have access to. And even when we are going through challenging, difficult, hard times, we must remember that things eventually improve and, as a country, we are still luckier than most. We are also conscious enough now to know that we are the powerful creators of our lives, and if we have created something we don’t like, we are equally able to create something new and different at any time.

Here is a practice that may help you make a simple shift:

Notice what your first thoughts are when you wake up in the morning. Where does your mind go? Do you wake up thinking, “Ugh, another day.”? Do thoughts of your day’s obligations spring to mind? Or do you bring back emotional turmoil from the day before?

How many days a week do you open your eyes and think, “Yes! I am so excited to do today!”?

Try this experiment for a week: notice your first thoughts in the morning, and see if changing any negative or low-vibrational thoughts into something positive effects your day. Notice if it effects your attitude. Notice if it effects your relationships.

Here are some practices to try upon awakening:

• Smile;
• Recite an affirmation (I am fond of the Access Consciousness affirmation, “All of life comes to me with ease, joy and glory.”);
• Think of those you love;
• Relish the miracle of your breath or the movement of your body;
• Think of something you have to look forward to;
• As you think of your daily To Do list, reframe it as things you get to do, not things you have to do.

Let’s continue to create the positive energy we wish to see and have in the world. The Aborigine saying comes to my mind, “Dream the world into being.” The fact that we are alive here and now means that we have the power to make a huge difference, even starting from a small spot. The world needs us all to wake up.

Moving Towards Inner Peace

By

I want to confess something to you: I’ve been deepening my connection to my Higher self —that part of me that is my connection to Divinity.

It is my belief that we are beings of God, and that this beingness lives on in our cells and DNA. The most important task we have in this (or any) lifetime is to control the ego and connect as much as possible to our own sense of Divinity, and what that means to each of us.

Here are three steps towards making that connection:

Recognize your story;
Release your story;
Sit in the energy of Surrender.

To being with, it is important to understand that we each live in our own story. This story incorporates the things that have happened to us that have shaped the way we protect our hearts and the steps we do and don’t make in our lives. I read an interview once about a Buddhist monk who had been imprisoned and tortured for many years. He said he moved past his trauma by repeating his story over and over again, until it no longer had any impact on him… it no longer felt like it was about him. It was just a story.

Know your story so well… tell it as many times as you need to… until you feel unattached to it. Yes, tragic things happened. Yes, you were hurt, betrayed and broken. All of that needs to be honored, understood and held in compassion. It has made you who you are today.

And yet, at some point, it is important to move beyond that.

One powerful way that I have found to redirect toxic memories and emotions of trauma has been to bathe myself in the energy of Surrender. I know that, for some, this idea can be rather abstract, but hear me out.

Surrender is about letting go of what you want to change. Surrender is about relinquishing the desire to control people and situations. Surrender creates the state of allowing. Allowing is like the Buddhist saying: “Be in the world and not of it.” That means watch and listen, but don’t get too caught up in the illusion.

Here is the practice: What does surrender feel like to you? What does it look like? What would you do or say if you surrendered all of your worry, fear, anger, resentment, etc.? Use your imagination to create this sensory perception. Once you have the imagery of it, bathe in that sensation. Sit in this energy for at least ten minutes once or twice a day.

Surrendering the need to have things different brings us so much closer to Divinity (your Higher self) and so much farther away from drama unfolding around us.

And even if you want to change the drama you see, why stay attached to that stress? The change you desire may actually come more easily from being different, rather than doing different.

Claim Your Power

By

Upon seeing, and feeling, the chaos going on in the country and the world this week, feeling sad and at times scared, I asked for a message from the Spirit Beings I work with, and received the following. There are directions for a helpful meditation at the end.

I don’t get any future predictions, but there are a few things I hear often. That is, first, we can expect more and more chaos over the next few years, environmentally as well as politically. And, therefore, we all need to remember to be kind to each other. Finally, this is all leading up to something better — a world of more honesty and greater sense of community.

In Love & Light,
Randi

Channeled Message:

Sometimes it’s not easy to feel safe. That’s especially true when you perceive that others are not safe. During these times the world can seem suddenly unpredictable and, thus, scary.

We are sorry that you are scared.

We sing a song to you, one of change and of newness. You are dearly loved.

All change begins with chaos. The darkness that has always existed on the earth — lies, bigotry, hatred, greed — is rising to the surface, because when it is buried you cannot address it. This is a world of co-creation, therefore the outer world is a direct reflection of the inner world. With that comes the responsibility of each human being to look inside of him or herself to find those dark places — the sad places, the fear, the shame — inside of themselves and heal them.

There is enough Light on this planet to ensure everyone’s protection. Yet change must occur, in this there is no choice. It is as if the scales have tipped and now the energies on this planet must right themselves by shaking free of the old institutions and regimes.

Because the earth has been ruled by a small group who have been the benefactors of it all.

You, as a planet, are not destined to fail. Your free will entitles you to choose how you respond to these days. We hope you will decide to clear your mind to settle on hope in your heart. Everyday settle your heart because it is there that you will stay with your Self.

Clear your minds daily so you do not join in the fear. This is where your power lies. If every person reading this were to maintain inner quiet — seeking action only through that still small voice inside — and then that number were to double and to double again, the scales would move toward balance more easily.

For fear is a belief. And joining that belief system empowers it. Mass consciousness creates a large force of energy towards its target. Which target do you want to energize?

That does not mean you are not to take action when called forth. But let your action come from your heart and not your fear. Do not assume anything you hear is true. Do not assume others’ actions are right for you. Find your own truth and follow that first and foremost.

Some basic truths are:
There is more here than meets the eye.
Everyone is made from the exact same energy.
You are here at this time for a reason.
Your highest purpose is to be as authentic as possible.
Death is not an end.

It is now time to look at what we have tacitly been agreeing to nationally as well as internationally. Honestly, honestly, honestly this is leading to something much more positive.

A Daily Meditation:

  1. Breathe and drop your awareness into your heart. Don’t look out or above for guidance, because it is too easy to tap into the collective chaos.
  1. Drop your energy and attention down inside yourself.
  1. Gather all your energy in by stating, “All my energy comes back to me,” three times.
  1. Focus on the movement of your breath to quiet your mind. This can take anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes.
  1. Once quiet, state, “I align with Truth.”
  1. Sense the field of Truth by seeing it, feeling it, hearing the vibration of it, or knowing that It Is. Stay with this for 5 to 20 minutes.
  1. Understand that even this quiet, private inner work is a positive contribution to Light, ease and truth.
  1. Ask in this space of Truth what else you might do, what other action you might take, to contribute Light to the world.

 

There is a Flower Essence for That!

By

I want to make sure you know about flower essences. Every flower on the planet has it’s own unique vibration and its own unique signature to heal our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual challenges. Flower essences are 100% safe, easy to use and available to all. I have used them personally since 1998, and I incorporate them into my practice regularly. They have assisted me — and the majority of my clients — through various life challenges and changes.

Now, flower essences are not the same as essential oils (or aromatherapy). Instead, they are energetic tinctures, created by the vibratory imprint of the flower petals, and usually taken orally. They work well for humans of all ages as well as animals, plants and the energies in your home and office.

The most common flower essences are the 38 Bach remedies. As stated in an article I wrote in August of 2009, Let Flower Essences Work for You, Edward Bach discovered 38 different flower essences. Dr. Bach was a psychic sensitive, and discovered the effects of each flower through observation and their affects on him. He could touch the morning dew from a flower or its petal to his lips and he would experience the potential therapeutic effects of the plant. In fact, he was so sensitive that when he was exposed to a particular flower, he would experience all the physical symptoms and emotional states to which the flower was an antidote. This, in conjunction with feedback from his patients, created his definitions of the Bach Flower Remedies.

I tend to notice common “themes” in my practice every few months. Lately, I have seen many clients going through challenges in family and personal relationships. These are a few essences that may create a greater sense of ease during those struggles:

Hardhack: Hardhack releases ties that bind, while honoring ties that connect. It opens the heart, releasing grasping tendencies, infantile needs aimed at others; and/or co-dependence. Hardhack helps us release the need to cling to intimates and family members as our individual growth creates differing stages of interaction.

Hibiscus: Red Hibiscus offers much healing support to those who have been through experiences of abuse, particularly sexual abuse. It helps to cleanse the etheric body where we hold memories of abuse so that we release the trauma of these memories and also works to heal the emotional body where we store the emotions linked to the abuse.

Maltese Cross: When events tear our lives apart, Maltese Cross pulls us back into our center and imbues us with faith that an unconditionally loving creator is present in even the most divisive looking situation. Maltese Cross knows that experiences that seem to shatter us into pieces actually break us open so we can know our wholeness, holiness and the unity of all things.

Walnut: For those overly influenced by the social expectations or values of family or community, or for whom past experiences or beliefs inhibit the soul’s evolution. Walnut frees us from limiting influences, allowing us to make healthy transitions in life, and to find the inner strength to follow our own path and destiny.

Wintergreen: Wintergreen helps us express ourselves fully and unapologetically. It helps us shed shame based self editing or any behaviors chosen to hide our light under a bushel. It helps us be comfortable in our own skins so we can toss all sorts of false responsibilities and false personas and get on with the vital task of being our true selves.

Feel free to contact me if you would like help identifying flower essences for yourself, your child or your pets. Or Google “flower essences” to find hundreds of companies who lovingly create and sell these subtle, yet powerful, vibratory remedies.
