WE ARE BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT

Self Healing is both Simple and Easy! 
I write and teach about healing all the time, and frequently people say to me that I make it seem almost too simple and too easy.  My response is, well, it is! 

When I first began writing about my own healing journey of overcoming multiple sclerosis, I learned that in order to be "believable" I had to make everything I wrote fit neatly into those two categories.  That is, say everything in the simplest and easiest terms possible.  I still try to adhere to that formula. 

Let's see how simple I can make it!   

We are three-part beings, BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT.  I believe that hierarchy is important. 

The BODY is what we see when we look in a mirror.  I like to think of my body as the house I live in at this point in time.  It is also important to remember that I am not my body. 

The MIND is our intellect, the analytical, thinking part of our being. 

The SPIRIT is our connection to our source, the greater Universe, our creator, the Divine, or whatever you wish to call that power that is greater than ourselves. 

I define healing as synonymous with change.  Healing can be about our physical body, our mind, etc.  What we may need to heal may be a sick relationship, or perhaps a career that is slowly robbing us of our life force.

The mind holds the key to healing.  Deep within our intellect we must first believe that healing can occur, and we must have that intention.  The next step is tapping into our spirit.  I refer to that source as "The Healer Within."  That innate self-healing ability with which all of us were born. One does not need to be an intellectual giant to bring about healing.  It is available to every one of us. 

The only thing that can prevent you from healing or manifesting your desires is fear.  How does one overcome fear and change or develop their belief level?  You must change your state, your story, or what you tell yourself.  You can and must get excited about the outcome as you set your intention, and in that state your belief level will increase.  

As you increase your belief level, and fears subside, then the spirit comes into play.  Quantum physics has taught us that we are all connected - to each other, to everyone and everything around us.  It is the spirit - our spirit or soul energy, that connects us. For me the primary connecting link to spirit is through meditation.  The role of spirit is to take our intention - that which we desire to produce - and reach out to sources and attract to us whatever we need to demonstrate our intention. 

The path to healing is the same whether we want to heal our physical body, or perhaps a failing relationship, or we need to make a new career choice.  We are always the healer, and any healing is always our choice. 

There are "tools" I like to call them that help us along our healing path.  Seventeen years ago I was diagnosed with Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis, and today I have been totally symptom free for about eight years.  A healthy diet, daily practice of QiGong, and meditation, are some of the healing tools I learned and still practice today.  You may read my story at my primarywebsite.  I DID IT AND YOU CAN TOO!
