Contact
Healing
With contact healing, the actual physical contact assists the healer
in transferring curative energy to the recipient. The healer's hand
or hands are placed upon the recipients head, shoulders, or both; thus
becoming a conduit through which this energy flows. The spiritual healer
may be acting as a transformer of the spiritual energy to make it more
readily absorbed by the recipient. Many contact healers place one hand
upon the recipient's forehead and another upon the back of the neck.
Contact with the head and shoulders is sufficient for the purpose of
healing. Touching the recipient any other place on their body is unnecessary,
and charges of unprofessional conduct can result from doing so.
Spirit
Healing
With spirit healing, spirit doctors work directly upon the recipient
to correct or relieve conditions. With this type of healing the spirit
entity, or entities, do not require the use of a healer in a physical
body, but are able to work directly upon the Etheric, or spirit body
of the person in need.
HEALING
WITHOUT SPIRIT INTERVENTION
There are other means of bringing about healing the intervention of
spirit doctors or the Infinite.
Magnetic
Healing
A superabundance of magnetic energy within the physical being of some
persons helps to facilitate the ready transference of extra healing
energy to others. Yet, however easily this power flows from the magnetic
healer, it can also be depleted if too many healings are given in succession.
Suggestive Healing
Suggestive healing is positive thoughts implanted in the mind to serve
as a catalyst to promote healing. The finite mind of a person is part
of Infinite Spirit and may take positive or negative directions. Affirmations
have an important role in this method, such as: "Every day in every
way, I am getting better and better." The Law of Like Attracts
Like is at work since like thoughts in turn create like conditions.
Absent, spiritual, spirit, magnetic, and suggestive healing are the
most common healing practices found in the Spiritualist church.
OTHER
ACTIVITIES FOR HEALERS
Self
Healing
Healing of oneself is most important. Suggestive healing is useful,
along with prayer, or meditation time upon arising or retiring. Search
for the time and practice that works best for you, for healing is a
personal experience.
Healing
Groups
Why not start a Healing Group with others of your congregation? Only
the sincere should join; healing is serious business, hard work, and
determination is required. As a group, or individually, study the Natural
Laws involved with the healing process and investigate sources of information
on the subject. If possible, an NSAC Commissioned Spiritualist Healer
should supervise the group.
Each group session should begin and end with a sincere prayer, and all
members should be willing to lead if called upon. Singing, may be used
to attune to spirit helpers and Infinite Intelligence, as well as provide
energy for the healing to follow.
Group healing resembles absent healing and love is its driving force.
Prayers and affirmations harmonize and give direction to the thoughts
of those present and assist the creative visualization of the healing
recipient. As a group, visualize a light carrying the healing to the
recipient, knowing this process will be effective. A dosing prayer should
include thanks, or gratitude.
Healing enriches our lives and improves our resistance to illness in
ways beyond our dreams.
