Energy Healing

Recently having explored meditation has opened up my eyes to other forms of Natural and Holistic studies.

Currently, I am reading a book called "Your Healing Power: A Comprehensive Guide to Channeling Your Healing Energies." It deals with your own intuition and sensitivities, and body energies and Chakras. Having been a very sensitive and intuitive person all my life the material is completely drawing me in.

It is giving me a new understanding of how my negativity,thoughts and energy, has affected me physically, spiritually and emotionally all my life.

It is particularly intriguing to me since it deals heavily with the often untouched spiritual side of life. Nonetheless, I am discovering more and more that it is a core part of our lives just as our thoughts, feelings and physical bodies are. Moreover, they are integrated in such a way that it is becoming apparent to me how unbelievable it is that so many of us deny that this aspect of life is real.

Perhaps, I am opening a floodgate of controversy with beginning to discuss spirituality. My personal standpoint is that I am openly opposed to organized religion of any sorts (this I can discuss further in a seperate post). However, I am perhaps as spiritual as a person can be, and I plan to develop my spirituality to unseen heights, now that I am starting to gain a greater awareness of the subject.

What are your thoughts on spirituality, healing and energy?

Spiritual Healing

Originally, my idea for this blog was to get information to people about healing the mind, as well as use it as a personal format to express my own feelings and challenges.

I think that I was approaching my writing from a conventional, purely scientific standpoint.

Even though I had been utilizing western medicine and health to deal with my anxieties, I had also been stressing the need for more holistic therapies such as meditation. However, I still was sharing my views of these alternative therapies from a neuroscientific standpoint.

My goal over the past few months was to get into a local technical institute to pursue a career in Neurophysiology. I know I want to study the brain and the mind, and help people who have had similar mental and emotional ordeals as me but I wasn't sure how I was going to go about it. Getting back into school to health science dealing with the brain seemed like the most logical and reasonable step.

More recent gains in personal understanding and awareness have led me to believe that perhaps I am on more of a spiritual journey- here to explore the holistic therapies as well as the scientific ones and combine and share these techniques with the world.

My ultimate goal here remains the same - healing the minds of others.

The world is rampant with negativity largely stemming from the manners in which we were conditioned to think. Sadly, most people are conditioned to believe that ignorance, fear, prejudice and greed are a way of life. It is the nature of today's primitive societal norms. This equates to widespread health problems, mental health issues, depression, anger, addiction and so forth.

Personally, I've had to deal with all of the above mentioned issues. Very few people are aware of the totality of my struggle - my parents and my wonderful wife- and the probably dozens of doctors, therapists and healers that have seen me over the last ten years. Only these people know that I have had to explore countless avenues in each- western medicine and practices, spiritual guidance and counsel, psycho therapeutic and analytical diagnoses and treatment and others- in order for me now, finally, to move forward

Now I am seeing the positive rewards, the joy of life and the possibilities of the universe that are unfolding for me. It's been a lot of work, and admittedly I have to increase my diligence, but for the first time ever, I am beginning to feel like I can put the past to rest, build a substantial life, and help others in a powerful way in doing so.

Thank you for reading. Peace and bless you.
