Meditation, and more specifically, imagery, opens the possibility of converting a wish for healing into reality. We all have times when we need healing. We all have times when we wish healing would come for someone we care for and love.
Is this just a pipe-dream, or can we actually do something meaningful? The simple and clear answer is – yes we can. Subtle energy is a real thing.
We all know the comfort of someone with a “healing touch”. I remember the local GP when I was small. He would gently place his hand on my shoulder or arm, and whatever was the issue, things immediately felt much better. There was reassurance, comfort and an energy transfer that reeked of healing. Soft and gentle, yet powerful. A real thing.
Thought for the day
The mind has no form, colour, or substance.
It does not exist outside or inside the body, nor in between.
Even if you search for it in every direction, it is unreal.
It has no origin, location, or destination.
It is not nothing; your mind is vividly lucid.
It is not single, for it arises diversely as anything.
It is not multiple, for everything has one essence.
Karma Chakme Rinpoche 17th C
I have a long history of meeting with and learning from powerful healers who practiced what they call “distance healing”. The mind is not limited by time and space. We can imagine the past and future. We can imagine being with someone who is on the other side of the planet. Using focused imagery practices, we can imagine another person and direct healing energy towards them.
There are many accounts of this type of distant healing “coinciding” with unexpected major healing. Maybe you have felt this yourself – either as a giver or a receiver? Some people call it prayer. A real thing...
So in the days of the Allevi8 app, a very popular feature was the monthly Healing Circles.
Now with the advent of the Meditation Community and its steady development, it is timely to reinstate these.
Starting in February, we will hold a Healing Circle on the first Monday of the month at 8pm AET.
These Healing Circles will be led by myself and Melissa Borich whom many will know for her work in this area; plus helping directly to co-facilitate meditation retreats and meditation teacher trainings with Ruth and myself.
So we all calling for those altruists amongst you who would like to offer healing to those in need to gather and provide your support. And there is the invitation to join us if you are in need of healing.
You do need to be a member of the Meditation Community to join in, but that means you have access to all the Community’s other benefits. We are starting live morning meditation practice sessions in February. These will add to the regular live Teaching Circles and Discussion Circles. Plus there are recordings of a wide range of things meditation, the recorded practices you can use like a meditation App to support and guide your practice; and of course the interaction with other like-minded meditators and teachers via the chatroom.
During the Healing Circles, if you do join those giving healing, you will be guided how to do this; so you will learn a new skill you can use for other loved-ones as the need arises.
For those in need of healing, we can say those who attended the Allevi8 Healing Circles found them very helpful.
We look forward to the first of these new Healing Circles on the Meditation Community
and invite you to join us...
