excerpt
Chapter 1With regard to expectations you can give your patients, I
think it is important that you make it clear that you
cannot diagnose and you cannot direct the healing to any
particular place. We direct the healing generally to their
bodies and then we must allow their bodies to decide
where the healing energy is most needed. If they have a
pain then usually the healing will deal with that pain -
but not necessarily, so you must be careful not to give
your patients expectations that you cannot meet. It is
however, unusual for healing not to be helpful in some
way.
Sometimes one healing is sufficient, but I am inclined to
tell people that having one healing is a bit like taking
one aspirin; it is usually better to have more than one.
Often several healings are needed and the benefits
emerge gradually.
You will find that with some patients a successful
outcome to healing is obvious, but for others, change
takes place at a more subtle level and sometimes in an
unexpected way. Often the patient will not notice the
changes, it is only when they are talking to you on the
next visit that the changes become very obvious ?–
sometimes the healer needs to gently point them out for
them to be recognised.
Healing can help with the speed and extent of recovery
from serious illness and major surgery and from the
effects of treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation
therapy.
It works well with all forms of holistic medicine.
