On The Topic Of Self Healing...

[Paulm]

It's virtually impossible for these subjects to not pertain to life since they are in essence life experiences or lessons, life choices, life surrounding us that is seen or felt or beyond comprehension, life beyond this life, life sustaining energy, etc. Your brain will hurt if really thinking long and hard lol but, everything is connected one way or another.

not just life, but life style.... on the topic of abilities, most fall into two categories, 1- either wanting to push them back / diminish, or 2- wanting to understand and accept / enhance to see where it leads., when young, we go through the not understanding whats going on and fear stage, then life happens and we become unbelieving or too busy and they get "lost" for a while.... but for some, we later once again get glimpses and want to know more.... so we seek out answers....( i know this is extremely simplified, but not sure anyone has an interest in hearing this so ill make it as short as possible.. and some is repetitive from past posts....lol)...... the story i referred to previously of something someone said to me was back in my early thirties, i was still stubborn, though not new to abilities, i knew what i had and all, but only used it to suit my own needs, for my own reasons and benefit.... ignored the rest, the "calls", etc...didnt want anything getting in my lifes way..... but i wanted to know more. and someone who unexpectedly crossed my path had what for me was an eye opening "lesson"... they asked why? why do you want to know more? you wont listen, you wont learn.... they told me if i didnt apply what i learned i was only studying it, not living it....... that made me see the whole picture for an instant...and is what i think made me learn to trust "what is".....the only way to learn it was to actually live it....and though i had been doing that to a certain point, that extra jump was quite hard at first... these practices of meditation, fasting, visualization, self reflection, everything down to what we eat and listen to, (eat clean, exercise,(enlightenment can come through exhaustion...valid practice, if youve ever had a "runners high" youll understand. one of the most spiritual / peaceful moments ive ever felt was in the most unlikely of places. ). what we take in is what we become, music is a vibration, it either elevates the soul higher or brings it down into a negative area of weakness and vulnerability) ... all this is the path of inner piece and growth on a spiritual level. i dont think its easy for anyone..... it is a complete lifestyle change that is a slow process , and with each change comes the benefits of clarity and strength on the psychic level...an awareness ....but part of that path to inner piece is discarding the negativity weve surrounded ourselves with........... it is all connected, and to reach the goal, we must live and practice the right way....... i still listen to some classic rock at times, but i also listen to classical music more often, or meditation type music with flutes or such.... i quit drinking and partying long ago, but sometimes i eat cake, hey, ya gotta have some joy in life, right?....lol.... its a work in progress. its not easy, but it is worth the effort. ill stop here. probably getting boring at this point and dont want to repeat what has been hashed out many times before or sound too woowoo......lol.... it is all connected, and it is all life, what we do with it or how we live it is up to us..

Excellent post Paul. Self-discipline is what most of us lack. We want progress but putting in the work is hard. I am guilty on many levels too. I need to exercise and eat cleaner, spend more time in prayer and meditation. Life loves to get in the way. What we put in is what we get out.

and we are set in our ways, we develop likes and habits that we dont want to change, things we dont want to give up., add in what we have previously been taught or other preconceived ideas as to how it all works or what we should do. its hard to change or to see outside the box we build. but in order for that box to expand we sometimes have to empty out old ways of beliefs or thoughts and see things from another angle. trying to be open minded is sometimes harder than it sounds....this is a multi layered learning process that has many parts that all work together in ways we often fail to see or take into consideration.... bits and pieces come to us as we grow. we just have to be willing and have the desire enough to follow the crumbs that fall into place.

Even before i started this thread, i knew it would be a companion piece to the Do We Dare Scale The Wall? thread. I will keep this as basic as possible because these are two different topics to a degree. The first thread touched on 'things' that may not want us to heal and grow in spirit for whatever reason. They thrive on placing doubt within us and with a greater positive outlook, we can overcome this easily. Denial of growth can be self inflicted, but that is also another subject. Some may not want to think about the 'bad guys' or the 'other guys' but, i believe they are out there actively seeking to sabotage us to suit their agenda. When we grow in spirit, they do take notice and that's the last thing they want us to do. It can make us rather dangerous to them because we won't allow their game to dictate our progress. Just knowing they are there can keep us in the light and be able to kick those creeps to the curb. Just figured between the two threads and a possible third, i tried painting a very large picture.

Along with what Selectric said about negative beings who try to prevent our spiritual development, there is a more positive note. There may also be protective aspects of our higher selves, or spiritual guides, who may prevent us from engaging in certain conducts just because we are curious. We may not be ready to astral travel or whatever else is intriguing us.

Once, we were going to take a trip to NYC to check out a place that had been featured on 'Kindred Spirits.' Our car broke down before we got there. Knowing now about how we may be magnets for attachments, I am glad that we didn't make it. I believe we were protected.

Absolutely. there are the good guys that have our best interest in mind and will stand behind us to nudge us in the right direction.

RE: On The Topic Of Self Healing...
SUBTOPIC: Alternative Medicine
→ et al,

... It is private and it's really not mine to share. So, i used a meditation technique that i kind of refined for myself. There was a method taught in the book that was lost years ago but, i adjusted it to be more comfortable for me. Using this technique, i visualized removing the pain in my chest and it actually worked. It's hard to explain other than surrounding yourself with white light, taking it into yourself, then focusing it toward the damaged area(s). ...

(COMMENT)

Historically, various tribal and cultural folk medicines, techniques, and practices have been handed down to each successive succession of healers for the surviving cultures. Many of these folk medicines, techniques, and practices have proven useful to this day - in their 21st-century form.

I have learned (not as a practitioner) about the history behind several types of treatments including alternative styles of physical therapy and psychic healing. It is interesting, but not convincing. Still, I suspect that there is some truth in some of the claims. After all, folk medicine and healing have been around for over four millennia.

Most Respectfully,
R

That would be a correct assumption. There really is truth behind this.

The body is capable of some amazing things but this is more about our own ability to aid in what the body can't accomplish. Is it sheer will, divine help or a combination of both? I believe it is both.
