HEALING AND TRANSFORMATION

Every symptom has a certain way of being with which it is associated.

In order to release a symptom, one must release the way of being associated
with it.
Thus, the process of healing implies a process of transformation.

Anything can be healed.


ONE OR TWO MONTHS TO LIVE

When I had terminal cancer in 1975, I had been told that I had one or two
months to live, and that the end might come very suddenly, any moment, if I
coughed or sneezed. I was faced with a reality in which each day was
possibly my last day, each hour my last hour, and I recognized that for
whatever limited time I had remaining, I wanted to be happy.

Living a compromise made no sense to me. Since each meal was possibly the
last one I would ever have, I wanted to eat whatever I had an appetite for,
whatever my body was asking for. It didn't make sense to me to eat food I
didn't enjoy just because someone else thought it would be healthy for me.
Their loving intentions were recognized, but I knew it was not my way. My
path to health had to include a sense of enjoyment in all that I did, and I
had to be true to myself, to be real. I had to believe in the recovery
process.


REPRIEVE !

Then, it was suggested to me that the cancer was the result of a process
that had been going on in my consciousness, and that I could use my
consciousness to get rid of it. My consciousness had been the effect of
programming, in the same way that the results that a computer produces are
the effects of the way had been programmed. I could reprogram my
consciousness.

I was presented with the idea that our perceptions create our reality, and I
realized that I had to reprogram my consciousness to create the perception
that I was well. I was not prepared for such an abrupt shift from the
perception of being terminally ill, but I realized that I could much more
easily create the perception that I was getting better and better, until I
was indeed well.

I had had the perception that I was in a state of deterioration, getting
closer and closer to dying, and I knew that if I were to have as the end
result the perception that I was well, I would have to change from getting
worse and worse to getting better and better. I also knew that the
turn-around could happen in any moment. It was a matter of turning a switch
in my mind, and insisting on knowing that it had been turned. I decided that
if the moment of change could be any moment, then let it be now.


THE CHANGE

I felt a shift in my consciousness, and I knew then that I was in a state of
improvement. I also knew the importance of maintaining the integrity of that
decision, and of that moment. I knew that all of my perceptions had to
reinforce the idea that I was now getting better and better. For example, I
could remind myself as I ate whatever food I wanted, that it was exactly
what my body needed to accelerate the healing process.

Physical sensations that felt like electric shocks in my body, which before
had reinforced the idea that the tumor was growing, now had to be perceived
as evidence that the tumor was shrinking. My mind looked for more and more
ways of knowing that the improvement was happening.

I knew I had to stay away from those people who insisted on seeing me as
still terminal, not from any lack of love, but just to maintain my own
positive attitude toward my healing process. I had to be with people who
were willing to encourage me on this seemingly impossible task I had set for
myself. When I was asked how I was doing, I insisted on answering, "Better
and better," and seeing how that was, in fact, true.

I knew that it was vital to maintain the positive programming, and that
putting myself in a relaxed state of mind and talking positively to myself
for fifteen minutes, three times each day, was a part of the programming
process I should in no way interfere with. There were temptations to not do
the relaxations, and then I would remind myself that my life was at stake.
Any temptation, then, was something that stood between me and my life, and
had to be removed, so that I could live.


HOLDING THE PERCEPTION

At first, it was very difficult. I found that the integrity of the moment of
change was easily compromised, by my thoughts or words acknowledging
anything other than the idea that I was improving, and I had to be honest
with myself, and see that, and then know that I had "blown it." Then, I
could tell myself that what had happened was just a practice run, and that
the real moment of change was now.

It got easier and easier. I was able to maintain integrity for just hours at
first, then a day, then two days, and then I was solid. I knew the program
was working. I was able to recognize the doubting voice inside, and know
that it did not represent truth. I was able to identify with the encouraging
voice. It became my guide, leading me back to stable health. I was more and
more able to maintain the single-pointedness of knowing that positive
changes were happening. When I was not feeling a symptom, I told myself that
perhaps now I would never feel that symptom again. If I experienced the
symptom after that, I told myself that the process was just not yet
complete, and that indeed I was feeling the symptom less than I had before.

I had to know that positive changes were happening now, possibly just at the
threshold of notice-ability, so I could eagerly anticipate evidence to
justify my perceptions. Naturally, I was always able to find something, and
so assure myself that it was not something I was just imagining, but real,
and more strength was added to the process.


THE PROGRAM

During my relaxation periods, I imagined seeing the tumor which had been
located in my spinal cord in the neck, and imagined that I was watching one
layer of cancer cells dying, and being released, to be discarded by my
body's natural elimination system. I knew that the change, perhaps not yet
noticeable, was still definite. I knew that each time I released waste
products from my body, the dead cancer cells were being eliminated, and I
reminded myself of that each time. I insisted on knowing that it was true.

I knew that cancer represented something held in and not expressed, and
since the tumor was located by my throat chakra (energy center), I had been
holding back the expression of my Being. Since I wasn't quite sure what that
meant, though, I decided that it was imperative that I express everything.
Every thought, every feeling, whatever was in my consciousness that wanted
to come out, I expressed, knowing that it was vital for my health. Before, I
had had the perception that expressing led to discord, but now I saw that
what I was expressing was appreciated by those around me, that expressing
and communicating led to harmony.

Before, I had had the belief that if I expressed what I really wanted to,
something bad would happen. I had to reprogram that to the belief that if I
expressed what I really wanted to, something wonderful would happen. I made
that decision, and it was so.

I found myself having less and less in common with my old friends. It was as
though we had shared a common vibrational frequency before, say 547 cycles,
whatever that means, and suddenly I found myself at 872 cycles, having few
things to communicate with the 547-cycle people. I had to find new friends
who were also at 872, to have someone to talk with.

I found myself attracted to the 872 crowd, and them to me, as though I had
become selectively magnetic, and certain elements of my reality were being
released which were no longer in accord with the new Being I was becoming. I
knew the process was inevitable, and should not be interfered with. I
developed a sense of compassion and understanding at that time. I knew that
my life depended on releasing all elements of my life not in accord with my
new vibration. The process was simple, though not always easy.

I began each day as a process of self-discovery, with no preconceived notion
of who I was, yet with a willingness to discover the emerging Being, and a
sense of delight with each new discovery.

I imagined the scene that would happen in the doctor's office after my work
on myself was done. I could see him examining me, and finding no tumor,
being puzzled. He might say, "Perhaps we made a mistake." I played the scene
in my mind each day, in my relaxation periods.

I had heard that within the technology of mental programming, if I talked to
myself for fifteen minutes three times each day, within 66 days, I could get
myself to believe anything, and that whatever I believed to be true, would
be true.

About two months after I started working on myself, I went to be examined by
the doctor who had pronounced me terminally ill. On the way to the doctor, I
knew that I had to maintain the perception that everything was all right. I
replayed the scene in my mind, knowing it would happen like that.

Finally, the moment of truth arrived. The doctor examined me, and found
nothing. He said, "Perhaps we made a mistake." I laughed all the way home.


TRANSFORMATION

I have transformed my way of Being. My lifestyle has changed dramatically.
It no longer makes any sense to work in any nine-to-five job, or to call any
other Being my "superior," since we are all equal Beings, and all with
infinite potential. I “retired” from Wall Street at the age of 38 with
nothing but the dedication to the idea of doing what I really want to do and
not doing what I really do not want to do, and trusting my trip, listening
to my inner voice. It’s a decision I have never regretted.

With what I learned of the body/mind relationship from my experience and the
research I did during my own healing process, I developed a model of healing
as a way to organize in my own mind what had happened for me, and what had
worked.
I gradually became involved in healing others when conditions seemed to
demand that, and in doing that I saw more and more examples of the body/mind
interface covering many other symptoms. The model of healing I was using
became more and more coherent and multi-dimensional.

I discovered the joy of sharing my experiences and ideas with others, and
watching them benefit as they put the ideas to work in their own lives.

The work I do now as a healer and teacher is meaningful to me, important to
others as well, and is of service to humanity, and I feel a "high" when I do
it. I have a strong sense of doing my life's work. I know that I am doing
what I came to this planet to do. I know it's right. It's not a feeling that
I had had before.

The process of transformation is an integral part of the healing process,
whether the Being is healing his/her vision or releasing some serious
illness, and indeed also even when the out-of-balance condition has not
reached the physical level, yet still exists on the mental or emotional
level.

It is for those of us who recognize the process to encourage it, and assist
it where we can, so that the planetary transformation now taking place
within the individuals inhabiting it may be hastened, and made as gentle as
possible.

Illness or injury shows on the physical level, metaphorically, what has been
happening in the consciousness of the Being experiencing the symptoms. It is
related to that person's way of Being. Once the elements of a person's Being
that relate to their physical out-of-balance condition are identified, they
can be changed, and health and balance on all levels can be restored.

When we see the physical body as a map of the consciousness that wears it,
and always balanced to it, we can also see that a change in one implies a
change in the other. When a healing happens, a change in personality may be
expected to reflect the change in the physical Being, and vice verse.
The "new" individual will have the same Essence of Being, yet with a
different way of interacting with the environment, without what had been
excessive tension for that individual. In fact, they will be more
themselves, whom they really are.

It may seem as though the individual had awakened from a very real-seeming
dream, and things will make sense in a different way. A perceptual filter
will have been removed, a filter through which values had been determined,
and without that filter, truer values will become evident. The "new" Being
may even have different tastes in food and/or clothing, and different
personal habits. It will be a welcome transformation.

Approaches to healing which consider the aspect of personality change,
transformation, are keyed to the idea of an inner cause to any outer
symptom. Without the inner changes, the symptoms may be relieved in the
physical reality, but not yet the causes in the inner world, and the
symptoms may get re-created again. The Being then considers that part of
their energy system an inherent weakness, to be continually dealt with,
until they can bring about the inner changes, after which the symptoms no
longer manifest. After all, the symptoms were only necessary to give a
message to the "old" Being. The "new" one, not having the built-in weakness,
has no need of the symptom. As a matter of fact, the formerly weak part may
even become the "new" Being's strongest part. Stories of formerly paralyzed
or injured patients who became Olympic stars are evidence of this.

When transformation is focused on in addition to other parts of the healing
process, another dimension is added, to accelerate the healing.


THE HUMAN ENERGY SYSTEM

In the energy system that we each are, the energy is in a constant state of
flow. This flow of energy is regulated by seven energy "pumps," called
chakras. Each chakra represents specific emotions and levels of perception,
elements of the Being's consciousness, and is also associated with specific
parts of the body, specific functions within the body, specific endocrine
glands, and specific nerve groups. Responses to a Being's perceived universe
are reflected in the chakras as well.

The chakras have an optimal state of balance and flow. A healing of the
individual balances the chakras. When this happens, in addition to restoring
inner balance and a different state of consciousness, as well as physical
balance, the rebalancing will also define different responses to the Being's
perceived universe.

In other words, with a given state of balance of the chakras, a certain type
of experience will be attracted to the individual, and certain types of
people will be attracted, as well. When the energy changes in the chakras,
as in a healing, the magnetic effect drawing a particular kind of person or
experience is then released, along with the old way of responding.

For example, one Being, having different interactions with his/her mother
may respond by blocking the chakra associated with security or trust. The
effect would be insecurity as a perceptual filter. The individual would then
attract precarious situations to justify the insecurity, as well as females
who would remind that Being of his/her mother. When the chakra is cleared,
the type of female formerly attracted would be attracted instead to other
Beings with the same kind of blocked chakra as that formerly experienced by
the Being who was healed, leaving room for interactions for that Being with
females of a different energy. In addition, interactions with the
mother-archetype will have a different resolution, more satisfying.
Situations presented to the Being will also have more of a sense of
solidity, or the Being will have a new perspective of confidence with which
to resolve the situation..

We can see, then, that not only do the chakras reflect the outer
environment, but in a way they also create it.

With minor adjustments in a Being's energy system, only slight shifts in
consciousness would be apparent. In the case of catastrophic illnesses,
however, the Being was in desperate need of a major adjustment in
consciousness, and then the aspects of transformation would be more
profound.


REBIRTH

While instantaneous change is always possible and available, most people do
not seem to be prepared for so abrupt a shift in their way of Being. Gradual
change seems generally more comfortable for the Being involved, as well as
for others in the Being's environment.

With instantaneous change, there is the experience of sudden clarification
of what had been obscure, and a sense something like what might be
experienced by a Being suddenly finding itself in a body, and watching a
movie unfolding around itself, a movie that had just begun. The Being would
find itself as one of the characters, with a sense of seeming to be
different than what the others seemed to see the Being as, and in fact,
would be very different. Others would be holding the perception of the Being
who no longer exists.

It would then be important for the Being to maintain his/her new way of
Being, the new sense of clarity or enlightenment (yet possibly combined with
the confusing sense of sudden newness), and establish quickly the way in
which things make sense in the new reality, the new paradigm, with new
perceptions. The new Being would have to see its relationship to the old
Being's job, surroundings, home, partner, etc., and evaluate which aspects
worked harmoniously, and which parts would have to change in some way.

In the case of a Being who had had a serious illness, and who recognized the
relationship between lifestyle and the physical symptoms, there would have
to be a willingness to change all aspects of the lifestyle that did not
result in happiness, because it would be clear that it was those aspects
which were directly related to the illness It would be clear as well that to
not bring about the necessary changes would be to recreate the symptoms of
the illness.

When it becomes a matter of life and death, the choice becomes a clear one,
and simple, although not always easy.


INTERACTIONS

To those people close to the Being, it could be a very confusing time, as
well. It could seem as though the person they had known the Being to be, had
suddenly changed in a way, gone crazy. Habitual patterns of behavior and
responding would suddenly no longer be there, and it could be very
confusing. For the Being's health and well-being, however, they would have
to be totally supportive of the new Being, since attempts to re-create the
old Being would be perceived by the Being involved (correctly) as a threat
to its health, and perhaps even to its life.

There must be a willingness to adapt to the Being's new way of Being.

Gradual change is easier for most people, but it must be emphasized that the
magnitude of the gradual change is no less than that of immediate change. It
is just spread out over a longer period of time. The same issues must be
examined. The same changes must be made. In addition, the Being must
maintain a single-mindedness of purpose, and stay on purpose, with a total
willingness to release all aspects of their life which are stress-related,
and all patterns of interacting which are not success-oriented, until life
is again harmonious, and the body's state of health and well-being indicate
that the Being has returned to balance, and may now identify with the way
they are. The transformation and healing will then be complete.


ANYTHING CAN BE HEALED !!!

When an individual who has been out of balance has made the decision to
return to balance, they must make it a high priority project. Nothing else
must be more important. Particularly in the case of a catastrophic illness,
the return to health necessarily becomes more important than family,
friends, or job. When there has been the recognition of a path to health,
nothing must interfere with that path. The development and maintenance of a
positive mental attitude is imperative.

Each of us is a self-organizing autonomous system of consciousness. Each of
us is an energy system. Energy flows through our Being, and is directed by
our consciousness. This energy is in a state of movement, flow, and in a
healthy organism the energy is harmonious, and flows smoothly. When the flow
of this energy is blocked or interrupted, it is experienced by the organism
as an imbalance, and the organism's tendency is to return to balance and
harmony, to return to health. This tendency toward harmony is an aspect of
love.

All illness, all injury, is energy blocked or interrupted, or a call for
love. Each of us, including you, the reader, has the ability to sense
energy, detect it, and direct it.

Ultimately, any energy block can be released by your consciousness. It is
not a question of whether it can be done, but rather how it can be done.

Within your Being, within your consciousness, is the ability to love, to
perceive without judgment or expectation, to care. You have a potential for
infinite love, whether or not you choose to recognize it, and whether or not
you choose to manifest it. In fact, this love is the very nature of your
Being.

You have the ability to love wherever there was a perception of a lack of
love, or a call for love. Love heals.

You have in your consciousness the potential and ability to heal anything,
on any level, in yourself as well as in any other Being, since it's all just
love and energy. What remains is for you to realize this fully and actualize
that potential.

Anything can be healed.

You can heal anything.
