Essential Tips to Promote a Healing State.  

I have known that stress inhibits healing since early in my journey, but as we all know, eliminating stress is easier said than done. That is why the second step of my healing strategy is emotional energy healing and one of the reasons is to reduce stress to promote a healing state.

It wasn’t until after doing years of inner work, did I realize that I had been living in a constant state of stress for my whole life. When you have always been living in stress, it’s hard to see because it’s all you’ve known.

Stress Inhibits Healing

Anyone experiencing chronic illness knows that illness adds new levels of stress to your life. Then when we add job and relationship challenges affected by illness, staying in a healing state can be difficult.

 I started following Dr. Bruce Lipton many years ago. In the Biology of Belief, he has an entire chapter of an organism’s growth and protection functions. The protection mode is triggered when we feel stressed or have a traumatic event, both can create a fight, flight and freeze response. When we are stressed in protection we are not in growth.

So, a cell or a human cannot be stressed and heal itself at the same time. If you are in a state of continual stress then not only are your cells not healing, but they aren’t maintaining themselves, eliminating waste, or duplicating. The cells, the tissue, and ultimately your body does not have the vitality it needs, it becomes weak, and disease thrives.

I do many things to minimize my stress level to promote a healing state. The first thing that I do is to maintain a positive mindset by working in a masters class, I also focus on what is going well and I am constantly learning and experimenting on different types of healing.

I also do emotional energy healing, meditation, and use healing tools.

Meditation and Stillness 

 One way to get out of stress is to go into stillness or other meditative states. This take your focus into your body or into your breathing and out of your mind with all the busy thoughts.  

It takes practice to stay focused, so just go back in when you catch yourself in your thoughts. It also helps to feel love and joy. Once you get experienced, you can be in stillness while doing other things.

In the book Sensitivity Is Your Superpower, Dr. Karen Kan shares stillness puts you in auto-healing mode and suggested doing it for 10% of your waking hours.

 “In my experience, a profound auto-healing state of being is produced when 9-10 percent of your waking time is connected to Stillness.”1

I have been doing different emotional work, clearing, releasing, and meditation to promote a healing state for many years. This work has been transformative. I am not the same person; I am happier and feel more peace and love than ever before.

Emotional Energy Healing

Another way to get out of stress is to learn an emotional energy healing technique which is very important because practicing one can heal triggers to sources of stress, trapped negative emotions, and trauma to promote a healing state. Many techniques are simple to use, and you can learn from a book or audio program. They include, but are not limited to Release Technique, Healing Codes, Quantum Energy Transformation, or EFT aka Tapping.

Healing Tools

There are healing tools that help reduce stress.  I have used many different tools over the years to promote a healing state. Right now, I am using the AO Scan, Lifewave Patches and the iTeraCare.

AO Scan

The AO Scan has many functions and two of them help me with stress and emotions. The Inner Voice provides music with healing frequencies to clear emotional imbalances and the SEFI (Subtle Energy Frequency Imprinter) has thousands of healing frequencies that can be broadcast or imprinted. Some of the frequencies that I use to promote a healing state are inner peace, love, health, strength and recovery and there are many other helpful frequencies. If you are interested in learning more, see my AO Scan page or contact me through the Contact page of this website.

Lifewave patches


I have been using Lifewave patches for over two years and there are some patches that I believe help with stress to promote a healing state. I started with the Y-Age Aeon patch which is clinically proven to reduce stress in the body and promote relaxation. It also decreases inflammation and increases antioxidant production in the body.

I also use the X39 patch that activates stem cells, increases energy, and promotes better sleep. I and others believe it also improves mood.

The patches are natural, reflect particular wavelengths of light and nothing goes into the body. They support all aspects of my healing. If you are interested in learning more, see my LifeWave page or contact me through the Contact page of this website.

I know it’s often challenging when living with chronic illness and we need as many tools as possible.
All the best,
Dawn

The 5 Step Guide to Your Self-Healing – Part 2

My Healing Story

I have been on a healing journey for 20 years, experiencing muscle weakness due to a nervous system illness.  Even after being diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) aka Lou Gehrig’s disease, I knew that I would find a way to heal. Over the years, I used many different techniques and learned something from each one.  However, there was no one thing that healed all the issues.  So, I created my own healing practice for healing that works for me. Through a combination of energy healing, dietary, environmental, and mindset changes, I stopped the progression of the illness many years ago.  To assist other people, I want to share what I’ve learned so that you can create a practice that works for you.

Energy Healing Strategy

My healing strategy is based on the idea that our bodies know how to heal and it’s our job is to support it.  There are many ways to support our healing, we should have a positive mindset; we should remove obstacles to healing like stress, limiting beliefs, and toxins; and increase energy both internally and externally.

The 5 Steps to Your Self-Healing strategy can be done with traditional and alternative treatments.

5 Steps

Step 1 – Achieve and Maintain a Positive Mindset;

Step 2 – Emotional Energy Healing;

Step 3 – Detoxify Chemicals and Heavy Metals;

Step 4 – Increase energy from Internal Sources; and

Step 5 – Increase energy from External Sources

See The 5 Step Guide to Your Self-Healing – Part 1 for Step 1 and Part 3 for Steps 4 and 5.

Step 2 – Emotional Energy Healing

For me, the second step of my self-healing, emotional energy healing, has been very transformational.  I am not the person that I was before.  I was so unaware of what I was experiencing in my life.  Due to insecurities and self-worth issues, I did everything that I could to not feel, like to distract and numb myself.  I was in a constant state of stress for decades.  I was heading for an illness or health issue of some kind. 

When I say emotional energy healing, I mean a method that clears or releases trauma and stress triggers. When you do that you can remain in a healing state more.  Some of the methods of emotional energy healing are Healing Codes, Emotion Code, Quantum Energy Transformation™, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), The Wonder Method, etc… Many techniques are simple to use and you can learn them from a book, audio program or you can hire a practitioner. 

Keep a journal of issues to clear or release, including but not limited to issues and people that cause you stress; past trauma; limiting beliefs to what is possible; limiting beliefs to loving yourself unconditionally. 

Due to the inner-work, I learned self-care, emotionally and physically. Now when I feel something, I feel it, acknowledge it, love it and allow it to leave.  I have spent years doing the inner work clearing trapped emotions.  I feel better about myself than I ever have.

I learned that I am lovable, I am worthy, and I deserve good things.  I don’t need anyone to give me love and approval, I can give it to myself any time that I choose.

See Remove Blocks to Healing…Increase Your Ability to Heal, Energy Healing Techniques to Release Stress – The Healing Codes (Part 1), and Energy Healing Techniques to Release Stress – The Release Technique.

Step 3 – Detoxify Chemicals and Heavy Metals

The third step of my self-healing is to detoxify chemicals and heavy metals, it’s important to change the diet to organic foods, use natural personal care and household cleaning products.  Also, you can eliminate toxins from the body consider using an infrared sauna and supplements.

I try to eat organic and non-GMO and use all-natural personal care and cleaning products.  People have healed using a raw food diet and Paleo, which so different that I don’t think that a particular diet is the answer.  You might want to work with a natural doctor or nutritionist to help with diet and supplements.

I use lots of vibes up.com and earthing products to protect me from EMF and cell phone radiation.

I am sure that most of you are familiar with Dr. Bruce Lipton and his book The Biology of Belief.  I discovered him early in my healing journey and this quote became the cornerstone of my healing strategy.  

“It is also important to note to fully experience your vitality it takes more than just getting rid of life’s stressors.  In a growth-protection continuum, eliminating the stressors only puts you at the neutral point in the range.  To fully thrive, we must not only eliminate the stressors but also actively seek joyful, loving, fulfilling lives that stimulates growth processes.” 1

The 5 Steps to Self-Healing strategy can be done with traditional and alternative treatments.

5 Steps to Self-Healing

Step 1 – Achieve and Maintain a Positive Mindset;

Step 2 – Emotional Energy Healing;

Step 3 – Detoxify Chemicals and Heavy Metals;

Step 4 – Increase energy from Internal Sources; and

Step 5 – Increase energy from External Sources

Step 1 – Achieve and Maintain a Positive Mindset

The first step of my self-healing is to achieve and maintain a positive mindset.  This step is to know that it is possible to heal, never give up and keep exploring.  Search for and connect with people who have or are healing.  Read books, watch videos, join groups and follow people who have healed, who inspire, or motivate you.  What did these people do?  How did they do it?

After being given a diagnosis of ALS (aka Lou Gehrig’s disease), which for many is terminal, instead of worrying about what might happen, I continued living as if I wasn’t going to die… 

Even while doctors were trying to figure out what was wrong, I was working with an incredibly supportive group of alternative and energy healing practitioners.    Meanwhile, I kept trying treatment, supplements, and energy healing, I kept the ones that helped, discarded the ones that didn’t, and continued to try new ones.  I NEVER GAVE UP.

Also, to the extent possible, limit the amount of time you spend with negative people.  Unfortunately, we can’t avoid all the negative people and messages. But we can learn to limit the impact they have on us and our attitude.  So, when someone says a discouraging fact or belief, replace it with an encouraging belief from someone who is healing. Do not engage with them. Choose to FOCUS on the positive messages, not on the naysayers and negative ones.  I generally ignore people who have a limited view of what’s possible.  For more on mindset, see How to Cultivate a Healing. Mindset…

Focus and Visualization

It doesn’t matter what you want, health, abundance or love, choose it and powerfully focus on it.  When you look at yourself as whole and perfect, things may change to reflect what you focus on.  Spend more time every day seeing yourself doing the things that bring you joy and feel the joy and freedom, as if you are doing them.

“That is what was meant by when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. Through your focus. Play with this. If you want to create more love, if you want to create more abundance, if you want to create more inspiration—it doesn’t matter what it is—choose it and focus on it, powerfully focus.”2

Knowing that healing is possible is critical to healing.  That doesn’t mean that everyone who believes it’s possible will heal, but if they don’t it’s less likely that they will.

5 Steps to Self-Healing with Phototherapy Patches

My Healing Strategy

I have been on a healing journey for 20 years, experiencing muscle weakness due to a nervous system illness, ALS aka Lou Gehrig’s Disease.  Over the years, I used many different techniques and I learned something from each one, but there was no one thing that healed all the issues.  So, I created my own healing practice for healing that works for me.  Through a combination of energy healing, dietary, environmental, and mindset changes, I stopped the progression of the illness many years ago,  To assist other people, I want to share what I’ve learned so that you can create a practice that works for you.

The strategy can be done with traditional and alternative treatments.

Phototherapy Patches

Late in 2020, I discovered phototherapy patches and have experienced more physical improvements with these patches in energy, strength, and coordination than anything that I have ever used.  After using the patches for a couple of months, I felt stronger and better able to hold my posture, move as intended, and speak more fluidly. While I have maintained mental acuity and sharpness, I also notice increased cognitive agility.

The patches are natural,  reflect particular wavelengths of light and nothing goes into the body. They support all aspects of my healing strategy.  I list which patch I believe helps support each step.

5 Steps

Step 1 – Achieve and Maintain a Positive Mindset;

Step 2 – Emotional Energy Healing;

Step 3 – Detoxify Chemicals and Heavy Metals;

Step 4 – Increase energy from Internal Sources; and

Step 5 – Increase energy from External Sources

Step 1 – Achieve and Maintain a Positive Mindset

The first step of my self-healing is to achieve and maintain a positive mindset.  This step is to know that it is possible to heal, to never give up, and keep exploring.  Search for and connect with people who have or are healing.  Read books, watch videos, join groups and follow people who have healed, who inspire, or motivate you.  What did these people do?  How did they do it? See 8 Ways to Maintain a Positive Attitude, No Matter What…

Phototherapy Patches -. To support achieving and maintaining a positive mindset, the Aeon and Nirvana patches would be beneficial.  

  • Y-Age Aeon patch is clinically proven to reduce stress in the body and promote relaxation. 
  • Nirvana Patches enhance mood.

Step 2 – Emotional Energy Healing

For me, the second step of my self-healing, emotional energy healing, has been very transformational.  Because of my inner work, I am not the person that I was before.  I was so unaware of what I was experiencing in my life, but now I am fully present.  Due to insecurities and self-worth issues, I did everything that I could to not feel, like to distract and numb myself.  As a result, I lived in a constant state of stress for decades.   Consequently, I was heading for an illness or health issue of some kind.  See Remove Blocks to Healing…Increase Your Ability to Heal.

Phototherapy Patches -.  To support emotional energy healing, the Aeon and Nirvana patches would be beneficial.  

  • Y-Age Aeon patch is clinically proven to reduce stress in the body and promote relaxation. 
  • Nirvana Patches enhance mood.

Step 3 – Detoxify Chemicals and Heavy Metals

The third step of my self-healing is to detoxify my body from chemicals and heavy metals, it’s important to change my diet to organic foods, and use natural personal care and household cleaning products.  Also, you can eliminate toxins from the body consider using an infrared sauna and supplements.

Phototherapy Patches -. For detoxifying chemicals and heavy metals, the glutathione patch would be beneficial.  

  • Y-Age Glutathione patch supports a healthy immune system and improves overall health.  Glutathione is the body’s master antioxidant.

Step 4 – Increase energy from Internal Sources

The fourth step of my self-healing is to increase energy from internal sources. Even when our mindset is on track and we are in a healing state (not in stress), we may need more energy to repair.  It is possible to increase the level of healing energy in the body through meditation and energy healing and they also reduce stress, increase energy flow and energetic frequency.   There are many books and audios on this. See Increase Your Energy…Increase Your Ability to Heal. (Part 1)

Phototherapy Patches -. For supporting increasing energy from internal sources, Aeon and Nirvana patches would be beneficial. 

  • Y-Age Aeon patch is clinically proven to reduce stress in the body and promote relaxation. 
  • Nirvana patch enhances mood.

Step 5 – Increase energy from External Sources

The fifth step of my self-healing is to increase energy from external sources.  Even when our mindset is on track and we are in a healing state (not in stress), we may need more energy to repair.  The best thing to do is go outside and put your bare feet on the ground and sit in the sun.  If you can’t get outside there are ways to bring the outdoors in.  Earthing.com 4 and VibesUp 5 both bring earth-healing energy indoors.  There are also many healing devices that bring light indoors, bright light, Red, and Near-Infrared. See Increase Your Energy…Increase Your Ability to Heal…(Part 2) and Energy Healing: pH, Electrons and Earthing.

Phototherapy Patches -. For increasing energy from external sources, X39, Energy Enhancer, nirvana, Y-Age Carnosine, and Alavida Patches would be beneficial.

  • X39 patch elevates the peptide GHKCu which activates the body’s stem cells, providing incredible benefits. 
  • Energy Enhancer patches are clinically proven to increase energy and endurance and support a physical fitness routine. 
  • Y-Age Carnosine patch is clinically shown to increase stamina by up to 125%*, improves strength and flexibility, improve overall health and improves bioelectrical properties of organs. 
  • Nirvana patch enhances mood. 
  • The Alavida patch is scientifically proven formulations that improve the health of your skin—from the inside out.

The patches support all aspects of my healing strategy. I have experienced more healing and physical improvements with these patches in energy, strength, and coordination than anything that I have ever used.  After using the patches for a couple of months, I felt stronger, and better able to hold my posture, move as intended, and speak more fluidly. While I have maintained mental acuity and sharpness, I also notice increased cognitive agility.

I feel unstoppable.

How to Cultivate a Healing Mindset…

In order to heal, you must have a Healing Mindset, you must Know you can Heal, Be Positive, Take Action, Accept and Trust.  We all know that we should focus on the positive things, but that isn’t always easy when you have financial, physical or emotional issues…

The steps to cultivating a Healing Mindset are to know that it is possible to heal, focus on the positive things, do everything you are able to do to support healing, be present and trust that even though you may not see it, You Are Healing…

We have all heard the phrase, “What You Resist, Persists” from the Law of Attraction.  This idea also applies to healing.  The more we think about what is wrong with us, the more we bring what is wrong into our lives.  Our thoughts create our reality.  We also hear about surrendering and letting go of expectation because when we are attached to an outcome, it creates inter turmoil and stress.            .

When I first heard about Surrendering, I resisted it. But it doesn’t mean giving up or accepting that the situation will not change, it means stop fighting what is right now.   I sometimes get frustrated or discouraged when I work hard to get a result and it doesn’t happen.  I have learned and experienced that when I resist, it just gets harder.

I know that experiencing illness can feel overwhelming because it exacerbates the issues you had prior to the illness.  I would not have chosen to live the life I have over the last 15 years, but I have become so much stronger, accepting and more confident because of all the emotional energy healing that I’ve done.  I only did the work because of illness and resulting job loss.

When i get discouraged, i look for the lessons and the kindness around me.  I continue doing whatever I can to support my healing and stay in love and peace.

“Something amazing happens when we surrender and just love. We melt into another world, a realm of power already within us. The world changes when we change. the world softens when we soften. The world loves us when we choose to love the world.” ― Marianne Williamson

In addition to the Law of Attraction, thinking about what is wrong causes stress and lowers consciousness which hinders healing.

Dr. David R. Hawkins performed a study to map the levels of consciousness which is documented in his book Power vs. Force.  According to Dr. Hawkins:

“all levels below 200 are destructive of life in both the individual and society at large; all levels above 200 are constructive expressions of power.”1

So according to this work, holding emotions such as humiliation, blame, despair, regret, anxiety, craving, hate or scorn (which are below 200) are destructive to your life.

We want our thoughts / emotions to be at the level of Love 500 or higher on the Map of Consciousness for optimal healing.

“The elimination of suppressed emotions has a positive health benefit. It decreases the overflow of energy into the body’s autonomic nervous system, and it unblocks the acupuncture energy system (demonstrable by a simple muscle test). Therefore, as a person constantly surrenders, physical and psychosomatic disorders improve and frequently disappear altogether. There is a general reversal of pathologic processes in the body and a return to optimal functioning.”2

We accept our situation as it is now, knowing that we are healing and can recover.  We need to surrender and trust.

……………………………………………………………………………..

The steps to having a Healing Mindset are to know that it is possible to heal, focus on the positive things, do everything you are able to do to support healing, be present and trust that even though you may not see it, You Are Healing…

Each step will be explained in separate posts, see links below.

The Steps to Cultivating a Healing Mindset: Steps 3, 4 and 5

In order to heal, you must have a Healing Mindset, you must Know you can Heal, Be Positive, Take Action, Accept and Trust.  We all know that we should focus on the positive things, but that isn’t always easy when you have financial, physical or emotional issues…

The steps to cultivating a Healing Mindset are to know that it is possible to heal, focus on the positive things, do everything you are able to do to support healing, be present and trust that even though you may not see it, You Are Healing…

Step 3: Do Everything You Are Able To Do To Support Healing

The third step to having a Healing Mindset is to do everything you are able to do to support your healing.

My approach to support physical healing is based on 3 things and can be done with traditional and alternative treatments, Heal Emotions – Eliminate Toxins – Increase Energy.

Practicing an energy healing technique will heal triggers to sources of stress, trapped negative emotions and trauma.   There are many techniques that are simple to use and you can learn from a book or audio program.  I listed a few on the RESOURCES page.

I believe learning how to release trapped emotions is the most important skill you can learn!!!

“90 percent of all pain that we experience is due to trapped emotions, to emotional baggage”  E-Motion The Movie

According to Bruce Lipton Ph.D. 90+% of Disease is caused by Trauma, Toxins and Thoughts.

“”The “new” biology defines how our thoughts, attitudes, and beliefs create our body’s conditions, ranging from health to disease. Since only 1% of dis-ease is due to genetic defects, the remaining 99% is directly attributable to the environment and our nervous system’s perception of the environment.

This presentation focuses on the biomechanics of stress, recognized to be the primary source of disease and responsible for up to 90% of all doctor office visits. The discussion includes the mechanism by which stress promotes dysfunction and premature aging through its impact on telomeres, the body’s longevity mechanism. Bruce’s profoundly hopeful synthesis of leading-edge research in cell biology can enhance your professional practice and, as importantly, your personal life.” 2

We have the power to Heal, Change, Remove or Avoid all these causes of disease.

To increase healing energy, meditate or do Quantum Touch, give yourself Love, Approval and be grateful.  Go outside to be in nature, use energy devices, drink structured water, use essential oils.  See both articles on increasing healing energy.  Increase Your Energy…Increase Your Ability to Heal…(Part 1) and Increase Your Energy…Increase Your Ability to Heal…(Part 2)

To reduce toxins, eat organic foods and avoid toxins in your food, water and personal care products.

 

Step 4: Be Present

The fourth step to having a Healing Mindset is to Be Present.

The majority of STRESS comes from regret or judgment of the past or Worry and Fear of the Future.  So, try not to focus on the past or worry about what might happen, know and trust that you are healing.

I was in a program with Mas Sajady and one day we focused on stillness or completeness

Note in any single moment you don’t need anything.  You are perfect the way you are. You are complete the way you are.

Say “In this moment, I am complete”, over and over until it becomes the standard.  Notice the stillness.

“The point of power is in the present moment… right here and right now in our minds. It doesn’t matter how long we’ve had negative patterns, an illness, a rotten relationship, lack of finances, or self-hatred.

We can begin to make a change today. The thoughts we’ve held and the words we’ve repeatedly used have created our life and experiences up to this point. Yet, that is past thinking; we’ve already done that.

What we’re choosing to think and say, today, at this moment, will create tomorrow and the next day and the next week and the next month and the next year, and so on.

The point of power is always in the present moment. This is where we begin to make changes. What a liberating idea. We can begin to let the old nonsense go. Right now. The smallest beginning will make a difference. “ Excerpt taken from Heal Your Body by Louise Hay

Step 5: Trust That Even Though You May Not See It, Your Body is Healing 

The fifth step to having a Healing Mindset is to Trust that even though you may not see it, Your Body is Healing.

If you look for miracle healing, you will find them.

“In the community of students who do this work, people have healed themselves of chronic bladder infections, prostate problems, impotence, diverticulitis, Crohn’s disease, food allergies and sensitivities like celiac disease, ovarian tumors, elevated liver enzymes, acid reflux, heart palpitations, arrhythmias, asthma, lung conditions, back problems, thyroid conditions, throat cancer, neck pain, chronic migraine, headaches, brain tumors—and more.

We’ve seen all kinds of improvements in people from doing this particular meditation, sometimes even after the very first time they do it. Those dramatic healings were possible because students were able to epigenetically change the expression of their DNA, switching some of their genes on and others off, changing how those genes express proteins in their physical bodies (as you learned in Chapter 2).” 3

……………………………………………………………………………..

I always knew that I would heal and have been open to learning about healing techniques and supplements and I am always trying new things.

I understand that it can be frustrating when your body doesn’t work well, but fighting with it only makes it worse.  It is pointless and causes stress which hinders healing.

“Just trust that everything is unfolding the way it is supposed to.  Don’t resist.

Surrender to what is, Let go of what was and have faith in what will be.” – Sonia Ricotti’s Bounce Back Big in 2017.

8 Ways to Maintain a Positive Attitude, No Matter What…

We have all heard that having a positive mental attitude is important for physical healing, emotional healing and achieving success.  When we are experiencing challenges, it can be harder to maintain a positive attitude.

in 2002, I was given a diagnosis of a debilitating illness and instead of worrying about what might happen, I continued living as if I wasn’t going to die…

Even while doctors were trying to figure out what was wrong, I was working with an incredibly supportive group of alternative and energy healing practitioners.    I intentionally surrounded myself with positive supportive people, I read books, listened to teleseminars and took programs to inspire and educate me on healing and the importance of positive mental attitude.

In the 15 years following the devastating diagnosis, I experienced increasing physical limitation, got a divorce, moved 6 times, had to leave my job and lost my home.  So, I had to learn many ways to maintain a positive attitude and reduce stress.

Everything you do either helps your body heal or hinders it.  Maintaining a positive attitude helps it…

8 Ways to Maintain a Positive Attitude

ONE                      STAY INSPIRED

Search for and connect with people who have healed, are healing, inspire and motivate you.  Read books, watch videos, join groups and follow people who inspire and motivate you.

What did these people who succeeded do?  How did they do it?

A few times a day or when you need a boost, read or listen to inspiring messages.

TWO                     PRACTICE GIVING LOVE AND APPROVAL

We are always connected to love and we don’t have to wait for someone to give us love and approval. We also need to let go of disapproving of ourselves and beating ourselves up.  We need to learn how to give ourselves love and approval, this was life changing for me.   I learned these things primarily from Release Technique.

So, when you catch yourself disapproving or being critical of yourself or your body, stop and give yourself LOVE and APPROVAL.

“You are neither too much nor too little.   You are perfect just as you are, dear ones.  You don’t have to prove anything to anyone anywhere…  You are perfect as you are, right here and right now. There is no need to struggle to be better.  All you need to do is love yourself more and more each day.     The rest will follow.”  Louise Hay Newsletter 10/15/2016

THREE                  MEDITATION OR PRAY

In addition to boosting our mood, meditation and prayer reduces stress, increases energy flow and energetic frequency.  Quantum Touch also has the same benefits and you can also use it for healing.

One easy way is to think of something you love and turn up the intensity of the feeling of love and visualize placing the feeling in your heart.  Now, focus on your breath and if thoughts appear, allow them to leave and return to your breath.

Another way is to connect to source energy, the universe or God and use focused breath as above.  Set intention to deepen connection with source energy or as I learned from Mas Sajady ask “How do I connect to source energy even stronger?”

As you practice, your connection and the benefits will increase.

FOUR                    BE PRESENT

The majority of stress comes from regret or judgment of the past or Worry and Fear of the Future.  Ask yourself, “In this moment am I safe?”, most of the time the answer is YES.  If something is upsetting in this moment use another method, try not to hold negative energy for things you can’t change or control.

“Always say ‘yes’ to the present moment… Surrender to what is. Say ‘yes’ to life – and see how life starts suddenly to start working for you rather than against you.” Eckhart Tolle

FIVE                      ESSENTIAL OILS OR LIFEWAVE

There are many Essential Oils that boost the mood and reduce stress.  Essential Oils are made from plants; therefore, the oils are highly concentrated and contain the healing properties of the plants. They are also very high frequency.

LifeWave’s Y-Age Aeon patch is clinically proven to reduce stress in the body and promotes relaxation.  It reflects particular wavelengths of light, which stimulate specific points on the skin that decrease inflammation and increase antioxidant production in the body.  They also have another patch called nirvana that enhances mood.  To learn more, see my LifeWave page.

SIX                         FEEL GRATITUDE

When feeling sad or discouraged, look around for things that help you, make your life easier, lifts your spirit and then feel grateful. Also thank your body for what it can do, instead of focusing on the challenges.

“Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.” Brian Tracy   Brainy Quote

SEVEN                  VISUALIZE AND FEEL

Think about what makes you happy or something that you want to achieve.  Visualize it and FEEL what you will feel if or when you achieve it.  Sit there for a few minutes and really feel all the feelings and sensations as if you had it now.

EIGHT                   EMOTIONAL ENERGY HEALING

Learn an emotional energy healing technique.  Practicing an energy healing technique will heal triggers to sources of stress, trapped negative emotions and trauma.   This helps maintain a positive attitude more easily.

It also allows our bodies to stay in the growth process so we can either heal or prevent illness.  There are many methods that release or clear stress and trauma trapped in your body, like Healing Code, EFT aka Tapping, Release Technique.

Check the RESOURCES page of this website for tools and techniques to help you maintain a positive attitude.

All the best,

HEALING STARTS WITH YOU – 5 Steps to Help Your Body Heal

I was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) aka Lou Gehrig’s disease in 2002 and I am writing this June 2017, so I have experienced the frustration and stress that often occurs with chronic illness or injury.  Learning to maintain a positive attitude, stay motivated and at peace are critical in order to heal.  It doesn’t matter if you are using traditional, alternative or energy healing methods you have the power to help your body heal.

I’ve spent over 15 years on this healing journey, working with alternative and energy healing practitioners.  I have used many different techniques and I learned something from each one, but there was no one thing that healed all the issues.  So, I created my own practice for healing that works for me.  I want to share what I’ve learned so that you can create a practice that helps your body heal.

Our bodies know how to heal, but they may not be able to begin the process due to stress, toxins and lack of resources.  It is up to us to release trapped negative emotions and stress triggers, eliminate toxins and increase the healing energy available.

My approach to support physical healing is based on 3 things and can be done with traditional and alternative treatments.

Heal Emotions – Eliminate Toxins – Increase Energy

 

5 Steps

KNOW that it is possible to HEAL;

HEAL sources of stress and trauma;

Give LOVE and approval;

Increase healing ENERGY – Internally;

Increase healing ENERGY – Externally.

The “Inner” Work – Healing thoughts, feelings and emotions:

The Inner work positively transforms your thoughts, feelings and emotions, which allows your body to heal / repair more effectively.

People who have healed from a serious illness or injury often say that they were transformed in the process.  Since my diagnosis in 2002, I can say that I am a very different person and in a good way.  I am not being critical of myself, I did the best that I could, but now I am emotionally stronger, more at peace and able to Forgive, love and accept myself much more.

Healing is Transformation

 

STEP 1                   KNOW that it is possible to HEAL

Search for and connect with people who have or are healing.  Read books, watch videos, join groups and follow people who have healed, who inspire or motivate you.

What did the people who healed, transformed or succeed do?  How did they do it?

Years ago, I learned that there were people in my life that thought I was in denial.  After being given a diagnosis of ALS (aka Lou Gehrig’s disease), which for most is terminal, instead of worrying about what might happen, I continued living as if I wasn’t going to die…

Even while doctors were trying to figure out what was wrong, I was   working with an incredibly supportive group of alternative and energy healing practitioners.    I kept trying treatment, supplements and energy healing, I kept the ones that helped, discarded the ones that didn’t and continue to try new ones.  I NEVER GAVE UP.

To the extent possible, limit the amount of time you spend with negative people.  Unfortunately, we can’t avoid all the negative people and messages, but we can learn to limit the impact they have on us and our attitude.  Choose to FOCUS on the positive messages not on the naysayers and negative ones.

I generally ignore people who have a limited view of what’s possible.  If someone is “pushing my buttons”, I do healing on the issue and we’ll do that in Step 2.

STAY INSPIRED

STEP 2                   HEAL sources of stress and trauma

Learn an emotional energy healing technique.  Practicing an energy healing technique will heal triggers to sources of stress, trapped negative emotions and trauma.   There are many techniques that are simple to use and you can learn from a book or audio program.  Appendix A

I believe learning how to release trapped emotions is the most important skill you can learn!!!

“90 percent of all pain that we experience is due to trapped emotions, to emotional baggage”  E-Motion The Movie

This movie confirms my approach to healing and why my strategy is so focused on emotional healing.

Keep a journal of issues to heal using these tools:

  1. Issues and people that cause you stress;
  2. Past trauma;
  3. Limiting beliefs to what is possible from STEP 1;
  4. Limiting beliefs to loving yourself from STEP 3.

 

BE PRESENT –  The majority of STRESS comes from regret or judgment of the past or Worry and Fear of the Future.  Ask yourself, “In this moment am I safe?”, most of the time the answer is YES.

 

STEP 3                   Give LOVE and APPROVAL

Give yourself love and approval, ACCEPT yourself as you are no matter what.

While your body may be experiencing disease, “You” (Your essence or true self) are not broken.

Give your body and yourself Love and Approval every day and heal any issues that prevent you from unconditionally loving yourself.

“You are neither too much nor too little.   You are perfect just as you are, dear ones.  You don’t have to prove anything to anyone anywhere…  You are perfect as you are, right here and right now. There is no need to struggle to be better.  All you need to do is love yourself more and more each day.     The rest will follow.”  Louise Hay Newsletter 10/15/2016

 

STEP 4                   Increase healing ENERGY – Internally

It is possible to increase the level of healing energy in the body; it can be as simple as sitting quietly while feeling Love and Joy with focused breath.

Meditation reduces stress, increases energy flow and energetic frequency.   There are many books and audios on this.

Quantum Touch has the same benefits as meditation, you can also use it for healing.  It works through breath work and focused intention on Love. Appendix 1

Qi Gong, Tai Chi and Kundalini Yoga are well known to increase energy and have healing benefits.  I haven’t used these techniques.

External “Outer” Work – Healing from external sources

 

 

 

Step 5                     Increase healing   ENERGY – External

Structured Water – I have been using a device for many years and I would not give it up.    The devices neutralize toxins, neutralize other negativity and energizes the water.  As a bonus, since you are structuring the water, no more plastic water bottles.  There are many types of devices portable, shower, sink, whole house. To learn more.

Essential Oils are made from plants; therefore, the oils are highly concentrated and contain the healing properties of the plants. They are very high frequency and the molecules are so small they can penetrate cell walls.  I started using them at the beginning and used them off and on since.  For the past several months I am using them more than ever.  Please check with someone who is certified in Aromatherapy to confirm that there aren’t any interactions with any medication that you are taking.

Healing Tools – There are so many healing tools available.    I use two a Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy (PEMF) and a Low-Level or Cold Laser.  Both add energy to the cells, but I am not able to describe all the other benefits here.

I bought my PEMP device from Dr. Pawluk’s website because they advise you about the devices and have many articles on PEMF therapy.    DrPawluk.com

I use the Quantumwave Laser because it was designed for home use, it adds energy, it unwinds cellular memory and aids in meditation by unwinding emotions.    Ilovemylaser.com

 

 

The Daily Practice

A well respected cellular biologist and author, Dr. Bruce Lipton, wrote an interesting and enlightening book “The Biology of Belief”.  In it he discusses the importance of joy and love.

“It is also important to note to fully experience your vitality it takes more than just getting rid of life’s stressors.  In a growth-protection continuum, eliminating the stressors only puts you at the neutral point in the range.  To fully thrive, we must not only eliminate the stressors but also actively seek joyful, loving, fulfilling lives that stimulates growth processes.”1

WORDS TO LIVE BY

The Daily Practice – Your daily practice should include the Inner work such as reduce stressors AND increase love and joy.  It should also include External work to eliminate toxins and increase energy from nature and healing tools.  We are all different, so our practices will be different.

  1. A couple times a day, or as needed, read or listen to inspiring messages.
  2. Review your Journal from Step 2 and add any new issues, check in to see which ones need attention and do some healing.
  3. Meditate or do Quantum Touch remembering to give yourself Love, Approval and Gratitude.
  4. Go outside to be in nature, use energy devices, drink structured water, use essential oils.
  5. Avoid toxins in your food, water and personal care products.

Appendix A

I have been studying and using energy healing for over 10 years. I took certification training in Quantum Touch Level 1 and 2.0, I am certified in Quantum Energy Transformation therapies, Awakening Dynamics Levels 1-4.

I have also used many techniques and the ones that I believe are beneficial and easy to learn and use are as follows:

Emotional Energy Healing Techniques

Energy Healing and The Art of Awakening by Alain and Jody Herriott.  I have been using this process for a few months and it combines my favorite thing from other methods.  I love it but it might not be right for people who are new to working with energy.  EHS Bookstore

Healing Code by Alex Loyd and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) aka Tapping are both popular and effective techniques that are easy to learn. They use hand and arm movements that may be challenging.  EHS Bookstore

Release Technique.  The reason I like it is it clears stress and trauma and it trains you to change the energy of your thoughts which increases your personal vibrational frequency.  When you are done with a releasing session, you feel lighter and more at peace like you’ve meditated for a half hour.  Release Technique website

Love or Above by Christie Marie Sheldon is a wonderful audio program that teaches you how to work with energy and how to clear limiting beliefs and blocks to health and abundance.  Love or Above

Ho’oponopono –  A Hawaiian healing prayer

I am sorry – Please forgive me – Thank you – I love you

Focus on any issue you want to heal, say and feel into this prayer. There are books and videos on this.

 

Other Energy Healing Techniques

Quantum Touch by Richard Gordon is very easy to learn and can be used by someone with no energy healing experience.  There are two books, online course and live workshops.  I use it all the time, but it doesn’t heal emotional issues. EHS Bookstore

Stress and Healing, What I Wish I Knew…

When we learn how to release the stress and trauma affecting our bodies, we allow our bodies to return to the growth process so we can either heal or prevent illness. 

When I was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) aka Lou Gehrig’s disease in 2002, I was already working with alternative and energy healing practitioners, but I didn’t know about emotional healing like EFT aka Tapping, Healing Codes, Release Technique, etc…  I also did not know how to handle my emotions and feelings or how harmful stress is and that I was creating it.

I started working with energy healers and doing emotional energy healing myself.  I used many different techniques and I learned something from each one, but there was no one thing that healed all the issues.  So, I created my own practice for healing that works for me.

The most important component of any healing strategy or practice is healing trapped emotions, stress triggers and trauma.  Many energy healing techniques work because they release or heal trapped emotions, stress or a traumatic event and then the body heals itself.  I believe there are other causes besides stress and trauma, but right now I want to discuss only those two.

The first time I heard that over 75% – 90% of all illness and disease was caused by stress was from The Healing Code book written by Dr. Alex Loyd and Dr. Ben Johnson. 1  In this book, Dr. Loyd discussed the work of Dr. Bruce Lipton and Dr. Lipton’s book The Biology of Belief.

In the Biology of Belief, Dr. Lipton has an entire chapter of the growth and protection functions of an organism.  The growth function not only refers to growing from children to adult, but also in the repair and maintenance of our bodies.  The protection mode is triggered when we feel stressed or have a traumatic event, both can create a fight or flight response.  He explains the interaction between the two as follows:

“… humans unavoidably restrict their growth behaviors when they shift into a protection mode.  If you’re running from a mountain lion, it’s not a good idea to expend energy on growth.  In order to survive—that is, escape the lion—you summon all your energy for your fight or flight response.“

“Inhibiting growth process is also debilitating in that growth is a process that not only expends energy but is also required to produce energy.  Consequently, a sustained protection response inhibits the creation of life-sustaining energy.” 2

So, a cell or a human cannot be stressed and healing itself at the same time.  If you are in a state of continual stress then not only are your cells not healing, but they aren’t maintaining themselves, eliminating waste or duplicating.  The cells, the tissue and ultimately your body does not have the vitality it needs, it becomes weak and disease thrives.

Obviously, most of us aren’t encountering mountain lions in our lives, but Dr. Lipton explains that emotional stress creates the same biological response in our bodies.  The difference is that this emotional stress is continuous.

“We are constantly besieged by multitudes of unresolvable worries about our lives, our jobs and war-torn global community.  Such worries do not threaten our immediate survival, but they nevertheless can activate the HPA axis, resulting in chronically elevated stress hormones.” 2

“Almost every major illness that people acquire has been linked to chronic stress. (Sergerstrom and Miller 2004; Kopp and Rethelyi 2004; McEwen and Lasky 2002; McEwen and Seeman 1999)  Between 75 and 90 percent of primary-care physician visit have stress as a major contributing factor.  (Atkinson 2000) 2

 

 

 

 

I know that stress and several traumatic events either caused or greatly contributed to the physical condition of my body.  In the years following my diagnosis, because of the increase in physical limitations, personal problems and resulting stress, I developed other types of illnesses.  As the stress increased so did the severity of the symptoms and number of other ailments.  It wasn’t until I started emotional energy healing and healing of the stress triggers did things start to turn around and my body began to heal. By then, I had added layers upon layers of stress and ailments so it took time.  I am sure that if I started emotional healing when I was diagnosed, then I wouldn’t have gotten as weak as I did.

When we learn how to release the stress and trauma affecting our bodies, we allow our bodies to return to the growth process so we can either heal or prevent illness.  There are many methods that release or clear trapped emotions, stress triggers and trauma trapped in your body.  It is also important to learn to manage your emotions and feelings to reduce stress by healing them as they come up.

There are a few books that I have used and recommend for emotional healing on my RESOURCES PAGE and MY PRACTICE PAGE.
