On Healing

You are looking to open up the door to your soul, to the knowledge of your purpose in this life and of who you are and can be. You search for your truth in all ways, always. You seek to identify and remove any blocks or hurdles that prevent you from obtaining that knowledge or from using it wisely and profoundly.

Your ego likes to trip you up along your path, likes to divert you from your divine purpose with emotional fears and memories and negative self-talk and doubts. How do you get around the ego? You must learn to recognize it, see it for what it is, and move past it. Easier said than done, perhaps, and especially when negative emotions or physical ailments have a firm grasp on you.

To fully connect to your self and to the universal pool of energy that flows through us all, you must overcome obstacles, rid yourself of negativity and avoid future emotional baggage. By clearing yourself of negative energy, feelings and memories that hold you back and down, you will lighten and enlighten and rise to your true divine self and longed-for purpose.

You don’t have to suffer traumatic pain and experiences, and neither are you expected to. Negativity blocks you from knowing your purpose, from reaching for it and from achieving it. Traumatic memories and fears may hinder your growth even though some will have you believe that you need to suffer to grow. How does suffering make you better human beings than when you are spiritually, emotionally and financially well and free and capable of helping yourselves and others around you?

There is no greater joy and freedom than that of being full of yourselves in your divinity and full of love for yourselves and others. There is no greater joy than the absence of pain and loneliness and the ability and desire to fulfill your divine purpose and help others do the same.

Attracting What You Want With EFT

The law of attraction in a natural universal law that says that we attract everything we experience. Good or bad, the universe sees what we affirm as our truth and gives it to us. In the movie The Secret it is said that “most people are thinking about what they don’t want and they wonder why it keeps showing up. The law of attraction doesn’t care whether you perceive something as good or bad or whether you don’t want it or do want it. It’s responding to your thoughts.” So we don’t have to learn to manifest – we have to learn to manifest what we want.

And how do you do that? How do you switch your thoughts and beliefs to be in line with manifesting what you want instead of reproducing what you don’t want?

Your truth and power are in you. In YOU. You don’t have to look anywhere else for them. In this truth and power that are inside you, there is also the natural beingness of peace, love, compassion and forgiveness. These things are true to your soul. Simply, they have been, in many cases, buried under the negative thoughts and experiences of your human life. The soul comes prepared to bring to the planet some beautiful light – but the light can get dimmed by the very experiences that you came here to live. So it is there, the light and the love. It is in all of us. It is who we are, in essence. But we forget some of that, we get disconnected from life on the other side of the veil, when we are born humans. And as we grow and are socialized in the ways of our world, amid human feelings and egos, we become more and more disconnected from who we are and from the connection that we all share. We forget our power while giving it away to others and to things.

The love and forgiveness are there, naturally. So is your purpose, so is the knowledge that you are God’s energy and that as such, you are meant to be abundant and happy and at peace with your life. The key to that potential is in removing the limits that you have integrated into your being, the thoughts and patterns you have adopted that tell you otherwise. The key is reclaim and understand your power.

Emotional Freedom Techniques can help you remove the limits, thoughts and beliefs that block you from manifesting what you want. For example, some thoughts and beliefs that can limit the flow of abundance into your life are:

I don’t deserve ………
Money doesn’t grow on trees.
You have to work hard for money.
Everything is expensive.
Rich people are ………. (if you have negative beliefs about people with money, you aren’t comfortable with wealth and therefore it will be difficult to attract it).
Nothing comes easy.
I’m stuck.

Likewise, fears can stop us from moving forward. If your business requires you to do some public speaking but you’re afraid of that, EFT can help you release your fear. You could fear moving, fear changing jobs, you could even fear your purpose… for fear of failing at it and not deserving it.

Forgiving, loving and trusting yourself and others are important in the releasing of hurtful limiting beliefs and in opening yourself to your power. There is no need to live in fear and lack – God doesn’t want you to, the angels don’t want you to, the universe doesn’t want you to. We have been equipped with everything we need to manifest our desires and we have an incredible support system for doing so. But when you can’t connect to that system… or aren’t even sure it exists, try some EFT. It will help you tap into who you really are and who you can be.

What the Bleep do We Know about EFT?

The movie What the Bleep do We Know has had a profound impact on many lives with its messages of perceived reality. I love the movie, love the messages and how they’re presented. There’s a part in What the Bleep that discusses how we become addicted to our emotions, and it struck me that Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) actually helps break those addictions.

We perceive our reality based on what we know, what we’ve heard and learned and felt all our lives. All those things and events colour the way we see the world around us and how we choose to understand it. Something happens when you are a child, and for whatever reason, be it a glitch in your energy, a past life memory, or what you’ve already learned in your world, something in your make-up creates a reaction to that happening. And then a myriad of reactions occur to your reaction, and so on. You learn something about your world. As life goes on, you perceive that world within the context of the things you have learned – learned to be truths, to be rewarding, to be protective – at various level of consciousness.

Now let’s say you develop a certain understanding of events that has a negative connotation to it. As new things happen in your environment, you perceive those events in that negative mindframe, interpret things to fit your view of the world and your environment. And each event or interaction that gets viewed in this negative context confirms what you already believe to be true. This growing negative view, these beliefs, I call scar tissue. It builds on itself, until you can no longer see certain issues without summoning the negative energy of previous occurrences. And you’re so ingrained in the emotional patterning, that you aren’t even aware of its presence and how it affects your vision.

The movie What the Bleep says that “the brain is made up of tiny brain cells called neurons. These neurons have tiny branches that reach out and connect to other neurons to form a neuronet. Each place where they connect is integrated into a thought or a memory. The brain builds up all its concepts by the law of associative memory. Ideas, thoughts and feelings are all constructed and interconnected within this neuronet. And all have a possible relationship with one another. The concept and the feeling of love, for instance, is stored in this vast neuronet. But we build up the concept of love from many other different ideas. Some people have love connected to disappointment. When they think about love, they experience the memory of pain, sorrow, anger and even rage. Rage may be linked to hurt which may be linked to a specific person which then is connected back to love.

We build up models of how we see the world outside of us. And the more information we have the more we refine our model one way or another. And what we ultimately do is tell ourselves a story about what the outside world is. Any information that we process, that we take in from the environment, is always coloured by the experiences that we’ve had and any emotional response that we’re having about what we’re bringing in.”

According to What the Bleep, the hypothalamus assembles chemicals called peptides that match certain emotions. There’s a chemical, or peptide, for every emotion. When we experience an emotion, the hypothalamus releases these peptides into the blood stream and then to the cells in the body. Along the outside of the cells are billions of receptors, which are receivers of incoming information. The peptides sit in these receptors, attaching themselves to the cell, sending it information and changing it in many ways. It sets off a whole cascade of biochemical events, some of which cause changes in the nucleus of the cell. So now your cells are receiving a chemical (an emotion) – a
chemical that is addictive.

“We bring to ourselves situations that will fulfill the biochemical craving of the cells of our body by creating situations that meet our chemical needs. An addict will always need a little bit more in order to get a rush or a high of what they’re looking for chemically. … The relevant search command that’s going on is related to finding a certain emotional state” that will create and release the chemical to our cells. “We can’t even direct our eyes without having a certain emotional aspect to it. We create our reality by looking for and seeing things that meet these expectations – we have a mindview and set emotions and we look for things to meet those or we colour events within those guidelines to make them meet them.

… Nerve cells that fire together wire together. If you practice something over and over again those nerve cells have a long-term relationship. If you get angry on a daily basis and give reason for your victimization in your life on a daily basis you are re-wiring and re-integrating that neuronet on a daily basis and that neuronet now has a long-term relationship with all those other nerve cells called an identity. We also know that nerve cells that don’t fire together no longer wire together. They lose their long-term relationships. Every time we interrupt a thought process that produces a chemical reaction in our body those nerve cells that are connected to each other start breaking a long-term relationship.”

So how do you break the emotional addiction? How do you stop the nerve cells from firing together and break their relationship? How do you remove the scar tissue?

EFT can eliminate the pattern of negative emotion, working on memories and emotions individually by clearing away or releasing the energetic disruptions that cause the negative emotions. We chip away at the scar tissue until it’s gone. You can even heal past life memories and do work at the cellular level.

And when the scar tissue is gone, a wonderful thing happens… you can see situations more clearly, more openly, more divinely. Events and people and their behaviour are no longer personal, and you more easily and naturally understand that everyone has their place in the world, their path to lead, their experience to live. It’s refreshing and enlightening. And it’s loving. It’s love. It’s the universe, speaking to you directly, without the filter of past hurts and dismays. It is the emergence of your true divine self, and of the discovery of what’s really important.
