Manifesting with "Our Father"

The past few months I've been asking for help with manifestation. I have a vision of what I want my life to look like but the question is how do I get there? I am also aware of blocks that need to go and I'd been asking for help with releasing those. 

A few examples:  
  • Self-doubt.  Can I really do this? 
  • Fears about cash flow now that I'm starting my business. 
  • I'm holding a grudge that I need to let go of. 
Today I was walking home from work and The Lords Prayer popped into my mind. I was surprised because I haven't been a practicing Catholic for 10 years! Still I decided to go with it, after all, Jesus was a healer and a miracle worker. I sometimes ask for help in my healings and I'm drawn to building that connection again. Haven't felt it since I was seven.



The prayer ran through my mind a couple times before I started paying attention. And then it just clicked. The combination of phrases is perfectly designed to set our intent, release blocks and draw on manifesting currents in the universe. 

Salutation:  Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name. 

This phrase takes our Intent to the highest source of Energy, which is necessary if we want to heal or transform a part of our life. It is also useful if you want to call on Divine Intervention.  Literally. 

Manifestation Part 1:   Thy Kingdom Come

I learned the Our Father in Spanish and English and this particular phrase works much better for me in Spanish. The literal translation is "Your Kingdom Comes to Us" which I understand as God's Kingdom is moved from Heaven to Earth so that we can experience it down here. I am 100% conscious of the fact that Jesus preached the opposite, but I do think this is really interesting if we link it back to the manifesting current that we learned about at the School of Intuition & Healing. The theory is that we each have two energetic currents connecting us to heaven and earth. 

Visualize two beams of light running through your body, one goes from the earth upwards, the other goes from heaven downwards. 
  • Manifesting Current:  This one runs down from the Heavens through your body and into the ground. If you have a strong manifesting current it means you will be able to use what we traditionally call magic and create real life situation with your will power and intent. That energetic current is out there but its up to us to harness it. 
  • Spiritual Current:  This current pulls us upwards, connecting us with the spiritual world. I would imagine most mystics, spiritual junkies and psychics have strong spiritual currents. It is really easy for us to connect to those other dimensions. The challenge for Spiritually oriented people is grounding themselves and living in the now. I have a strong Spiritual Current, but my Manifesting Current could be a lot stronger. 

When I hear the words "Your Kingdom Come" the image that pops into my mind is this manifesting current bringing all of that miracle potential down to earth so that we can transform things. Think of the possibilities! This is where real magic happens. 

Manifesting 2:  Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven

In energy healing we have this concept of Highest Good which means that there is a plan for each of us. The plan includes ups and down, success, failure, health, illness. One of my Facebook likers said something brilliant today about our "challenges" being our growth opportunities in this life. The way we react to our life lessons is part of our spiritual growth. When we accept the fact that there is a divine plan things start to fall into place. And we can see things for what they are - stepping stones. 

This line is about living in alignment with our highest good and trusting. It is tough to manifest without trusting the process. Being in resistance keeps good things from coming our way. It also keeps us from learning our lessons and moving on. 

Abundance:    Give us this day our daily bread

This is about being taken care of from a survival point of view. Cash flow issues, be gone! There is also the question of spiritual nourishment in that bread. 

Health: Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us

I'm not sure why I've called this one health. Maybe its because holding grudges throws the body out of balance. One of the things I've started to notice in my healing sessions is how people hold the energy of anger, resentment and betrayal in their organs. I have felt this in the veins, the heart, the pancreas, the stomach, the intestines and the liver. A man came into the healing clinic with high blood pressure and I could feel his blood boiling with pent up anger. He was on medication for blood pressure and we referred him to a nearby medical clinic. Some people need to learn to relax and let things slide like water off a duck's back. Seriously. 

Forgiving releases that toxic energy from our body. You do yourself a favour when you forgive yourself and others. The hard part is actually forgiving them and I like the fact that its included. 

Maintain Your Vibration:  Lead us not into temptation

Again I prefer the Spanish version which reads free us from temptation. Freedom is something we can all relate to and in this case it means freedom from the pull of the ego, whatever form it takes. 

I am going to us an example with no religious connotation: drinking water instead of drinking soft drinks keeps my energy clear. My intuition and my ability to channel healing energy is stronger. I love chocolate and coffee and I used to crave soft drinks. Now I feel sick when I see a bottle of the brown stuff. Freedom!

The ego is a about a lot more than cola or food choices. It includes things like procrastination, self-doubt, self-defeating tendencies and patterns. Every single time you wimp out of facing a fear, that is the voice of the ego telling you to run. Temptation is about taking the easy way out and ending up in the wrong place. Or going overboard with something that wouldn't be harmful in moderation.  


Protection:  Deliver us from evil

I prefer the Spanish version which says free us from all things badThe word evil is a cliché. It has been overused; I think its more important to ground yourself in love and focus on feeling protected. To me this line is about feeling safe, protected and impervious to things like jealousy, spite, ill will, and any spiritual or energetic baddies. 

Sign Off:  Amen!

This phrase translates to So Be It. Funny enough most of the spells I've seen end with the phrase So Mote It Be which is very similar! My theory is that the ending seals the Intent. 

I would love to hear your thoughts! This one took me by surprise. 

Love & Light, 


Regina

What do I believe in? Good Question!

Yesterday someone asked me if I believed in Christ. Hmmm, what a loaded question! I do believe in Jesus. I've even asked for help in my healings, usually if there was an actual physical symptom or disease that I wanted to disapparate. It worked. It might be too much to bring him into every healing. It depends on what the client needs in the healing and what they are ready for. 



Most of my clients so far have had Angels and Spirit Guides drop in during the healing sessions. The visitor will add to the healing energy and make it more powerful. So far I've only had Ascended Masters with one client, and it was because they were in the process of raising their vibration rapidly. Not because they were sick .... 

So what is the difference between them, you might ask? 
  • Ascended Masters + Deities are Old Souls who have reached the end of their spiritual evolution, we tend to identify them by their most transcendental incarnation. You will have heard of many of these, and in some cultures they are regarded as Gods, goddesses or teachers. To name a few we have Buddha, the Virgin Mary, Quan Yin. A lot of people would put deity's like Lord Ganesh here, as well as pagan Goddesses like Isis. This classification can be controversial. Some people would put Jesus in this group. Christians  wouldn't, I imagine. The concept of Ascension is present in Catholicism through Mother Mary. 
  • Saints are spiritual people who have been deemed saints by the Catholic Church. In some cases they were also martyrs. To qualify they need to have lived an exemplary life and then they have to perform miracles "from the grave" that can be proven by the Catholic Church. In many Catholic countries people will ask Saints for favours and miracles. In Mexico you'll see statues of Saints with ribbons for every favour they've granted, usually of a miraculous kind.  My experience of Saints is defined by my up-bringing in Roman Catholic Mexico. 
  • Spirit Guides are between lives and they usually take a break of a hundred years or so to guide the rest of us through the process. They will open doors for you and throw signs at you so that when you suddenly feel inspired to go to med school, its because they have been throwing medical things in your direction. They will usually have lots of experience in a skill or profession that we need to develop in this life. We can have many Guides in the course of our life. New ones come along when we are ready for new lessons. I have three guides now, one for magical things including healing and one for business. 
  • Angels are beings that were never human. They are real, we have guardian angels charged to look after humans, cities, countries, the planet, etc. There are also Archangels who are strangely enough very grounding and action oriented. A little bit scary the 1st time you meet them. I really like working with Archangel Michael and Raphael in my healings. I tend to see them as fractured light and colour and they are massive. Archangel Readings are pretty awesome and they tend to be no-nonsense with the advice they give. Loving but firm. 

I think my Catholic background made it that much easier for me to buy into the idea of Spirit Guides and Ascended Masters. If you ask me I would guess that on the spiritual ladder, Spirit Guides may or may not be trumped by Saints, and both of them are trumped by Ascended Masters. I'm not sure where I would place the angels, they feel like they are on a higher vibrational level altogether. I like Archangels for healings. In meditations I'd rather talk to my Guardian Angels though the Archangels are good for direction with big life changes. Uriel started popping up three weeks ago and now I've turned my life upside down!

My Thrilling New Adventure

I have done something very risky this week -  I quit my job to become a healer! 

The past few months I've been stressing about whether or not I wanted to follow through with it. Actually, it was never a question of wanting to be a healer. The sticking point was risk that comes with leaving a steady job for a career as an energy healer. My friends, my angels, and my intuition have all been pushing me towards self-employment but I wasn't sure how to go about it. Then one of my tutors suggested that my love of writing and my blog could evolve into a reliable source of income. The thought surprised me but since then I've mapped it all out and I'm ready to go.  

My business plan consists of the following:

  • I have set up a company that will focus on spirituality and healing. My 1st project will introduce people to energy healing and offer simple meditations and self-healing techniques. It will cover the role of a healer. My vision is to drive awareness of energy healing with mainstream audiences, emphasising it's role as a complementary therapy. I'm still validating the pricing model but ideally I'd offer the teaching books at 2-3 pounds and make them accessible a wide audience. The first in the series will be unveiled this October. 
  • When I pass my accreditation panel this fall I will start my healing practice with live and distant sessions. Healing gives me a something to write about.  It also gives me a chance to do what I love and help people. A win-win situation! Hurrah! 

Quitting your day job to start a business can be quite daunting. I'm really lucky though because my employers are incredibly supportive of my plans. They proposed I work through my notice period part-time to give me a financial buffer. I'll be working 3 days a week for the next 6 months! This should give me a chance to get myself up and running. I'm convinced this is the right move for me and I'm really keen on doing something that benefits society. The next few months I'll be focused on publishing my self-healing books and setting up my healing practice. 

If you'd like to support my cause please try one of the following: 

    • Share my Facebook Updates and Blog Posts with your family and friends! If you see a particular article that you really like click the Share button on the top right hand side of this blog. Otherwise feel free to share the links to my Interactive Color Readings and the Group Tarot Readings. 
    • Book a  Psychic Reading! In a few weeks I'll start offering bite-sized Angel Readings for 5 pounds and longer readings for 10. The messages will be similar to what you've seen on Facebook and I'll use a combination of tarot and clairvoyance. For more info on my approach have a look at my Psychic Readings tab. More details to come in the next few weeks.  
    • Book a healing! Needless to say I am a healer as well as a psychic. When I pass my Accreditation in a few months I will also be introducing contact and distant healings. I've been spending lots of time thinking about creative new healing techniques so stay tuned for more information! 

This is as much as I can share at the moment but please stay tuned to find out more. I've already approached a few of you for feedback on guided meditations that will be part of my series of books and online ressources. I really appreciate your support and feedback and look forward to sharing more details in the near future. The decision to quit was a tough one but now that my nerves have settled I am really excited about this opportunity. Love and Light!

Healing and the Endocrine System


I'm delighted to present a guest post by Alison Woodman of A.M. Healing, a student healer at the Harry Edwards Sanctuary. Alison was kind enough to share her learnings on the Endocrine System with us as it is an integral part of the energy healing curriculum. Thank You Alison for your insight and generosity!  

The Body's Main Control System - by Alison Woodman

There are 11 systems that operate within our physical bodies and they are: 

  • The Digestive System 
  • The Urinary System
  • The Cardiovascular System
  • The Central Nervous System 
  • The Skeletal System  
  • The Respiratory System 
  • The Muscular System
  • The Endocrine System
  • The Reproductive System
  • The Lymphatic systems 
  • The Integument System   

As healers we are very interested in The Endocrine system because of it's alignment with The Chakras. The Chakras are not physical but simply aspects of the consciousness in the same way that the aura is. The Endocrine System is a group of Glands controlled by the Pituitary Gland. Some describe the Pituitary gland as the orchestra conductor because this gland controls the others by sending messages relating to the secretion of hormones. If the Pituitary gland is not functioning correctly then you can bet that the other glands will be under strain too. The hormone secretion through the kidneys and liver are vitally linked to our feeling WELL and spiritual healing can be a great way to connect with Chakras and inevitably The Endocrine system. Why are they connected you may wonder? Well as luck would have it the 7 glands within The Endocrine system are aligned perfectly with the 7 Main Chakras. They are linked of that there is no doubt and listed below are the 7 Chakras , The link with the glands and the possible issues and emotions relating to them both.

Each of the following will present the chakra-gland pairing, along with the issue they are linked with: 

  • Crown Charka - Pineal Gland - Spiritual denial/ migraines
  • Brow Chakra - Pituitary Gland - Truth/intuition/depression/ mood swings
  • Throat Chakra - Thyroid Gland - Communication or lack of father issues
  • Heart Chakra - Thymus Gland -Love/immune system/ balance/ trust/ jealousy 
  • Solar plexus - The Pancreas - Mind/ no emotions/ fear/ diabetes/ wisdom
  • Sacral Chakra - The Adrenals - Joy/ shock/ creativity/ hysterectomy/ prostrate
  • Base Chakra - Gonads - Courage/Pysical needs/ Resentment/ Anger

So from the above information it is easy to see how working on the various Chakras during a healing session and ensuring they are fully open and spinning correctly greatly benefits that particular area of The Endocrine system as they are highly integrated. It is vitally important to look after your body with diet and exercise to ensure that the correct balance is met because after all our Biography will ultimately becomes our Biography. Look after yourselves guys x"

Drenched in Coca Cola

This week I was clearing myself after a healing session and asked for a bucket of ice cold water to be poured over me. Energetically of course, it doesn't happen in real life. Instead my Guides dunked a bucketful of Diet Coke and Ice on me and then asked if it was refreshing. It was not! It felt very sticky and sugary and I then had to clear myself with a water meditation to get rid of the Coke! 

The clair-sentient message was accompanied by a telepathic comment about Diet Coke not being refreshing for my body either! OMG! I almost laughed but I was also a little bit annoyed. Maybe that's how my body feels when I drink colas. I had never thought of it that way. The past few weeks I have been getting hints that I should drink water instead. 

To be fair, I have cut down on coffee and I'm drinking a lot more more water during the day. But I'm still having my Diet Cokes once a day, and its time to stop. On another note I am also wanting to lose a few pounds I believe the soft drinks are holding me back. Not sure how exactly but I bet there is an explanation for it. I've made up my mind to go cold turkey on fizzy brown drinks for the next month. I can start with that and maybe I'll be able to tolerate a cup of coffee a day.  Diet Coke will be a hard habit to quit, but I'd rather do that than give up my occasional Starbucks Caramel Macchiato. Or Cafe Nero. I'm a huge fan of Nero!

Clearing Myself After a Session

One of my Facebook Friends asked a good question this week. Do I clear myself between psychic readings and healings? She also asked if I felt like those things affected me after the session.

I get this question A LOT from my healing clients, some of them worried about whether or not I'll hang on to their junk. Clearing myself after a healing is easy, but sometimes I'd feel their issues during the session and not realise what was happening. I might feel their frustrations and fears and think they were my own. For example, one of my clients was lacking direction in her life and I wouldn't know where to go during the healings. My supervisor pointed it out in one of our sessions, until then I was a bit clueless.

Sometimes I'll also get these feelings during psychic readings. The 1st time it happened I was reading for one of our special visitors in class, a lady who had just come back from visiting John of God in Brazil. I knew her from my previous classes and I really noticed a huge energetic shift after her visit. As soon as I sat down in her energy field I felt the tropics around me, music, dancing, jungle, creative flair. I remarked on how quickly she was blossoming and opening up, and then got a sinking feeling in my heart. It was regret that it hadn't happened earlier in her life. I'm convinced the feeling was coming from her but I didn't realise it at the time and I missed the opportunity to set her straight:
  • The timing was exactly right for her, the message wouldn't have clicked so easily if she'd gone earlier. Some of the rough patches had to happen 1st to get her ready for her big awakening. 
  • She is young and still has a long life ahead of her! 
At the time I had no idea why I was feeling that regret all of a sudden and I completely missed the point of the reading I was supposed to give her. These feelings come as an indication of what I should work on, and I am meant to acknowledge it and let it go.  Readings and Healings are easy to disconnect from and to clear. After a healing session I imagine a huge bucket of ice water pouring over me. Funny enough that image was inspired by a football tradition which you may be familiar with! It is very refreshing and I associate it with a job well done (or a match well won!) With tarot I visualize a cosmic hoover sucking everything away as I shuffle the cards. I will also cut ties to the readee and send them off after the reading. It helps to see them as a bird flying into the horizon.

The tougher links to break are the ones in our day to day life. More and more often I find myself mistaking someone else's feelings for my own. Sometimes I get a sense that it is off and I'm not really sure till they are gone from my energy field. A few experiences the past week have me grounding, clearing and protecting myself a lot. I also asked Archangel Michael for help with boundaries.
