Hello Ambrose

Great comments you have.

You have been my constant source of admiration and inspiration - the very
un-usual belief system you have, self-motivating and let no dark cloud
stays in your mind. Knowing you, you have several GREAT falls in life, yet
your focus always is Stand Up and Move on with life, take every minute as
the most precious moment, no time to waste.

My curiosity and challenge is - How do ordinary people gain such mastery
of the mind to create new positive outcome in life?

For that, I play my humble role as a Coach, Trainer and Facilitator,
believing that Everyone can attain such skills.

Cheers and look forward to our long overdue coffee session.

"The Law of Attraction" as made popular by "The Secret" is a powerful
concept and to many, it is a new discovery - a discovery to point out with
useful explanation of behavior and situation.

The underlying principle is that - like attracts like and vice versa

or positive attracts positive
and negative attracts negative

It is a useful and powerful concept when one uses the principle as a
reflective tool for self-examination for self improvement or to model
after another successful person.

Hence if a person is successful and happy, there must be some good virtues
and attributes of that person to attract more good things and blessing in
his or her life.

If I am not too successful or having pattern of problems, there must be
something in me that I need to improve and make good at so that I begin to
attract more goodness in life.

However, there maybe a danger on the later usage - at that may backfire.

For example, the principle can be used in a counter-productive way when
there are a series of negative events or phenomena, and one begins to self
indulge in guilt, worries, inferiority complex, little self worthiness,
lowering of self-confidence ....

or taking too much upon one's own shoulder, say "100% my own fault" over a
failed or difficult relationship, say, with someone, as it is generally
agreed that it takes two to tango.

Self generated negative emotion, using the above strategy does not help in
emotional healing.

Now the challenge is how to make the distinction between Self-Improvement
and Self-sabotage!

What is your view and experience on this?

Cheers

Hello George

Thanks for your sharing.

I took a quick browse at

>
> http://www.gawler.org/html/s01_home/home.asp
>

and I find that their program is line with most or many other healing
system - i.e. no medication or surgery, but calm mind (meditation),
certain types of natural food or herb, some form of exercise, e.g. qigong
...

there is another practice i.e. soul over mind and body, calling on the
divine intervention, quite like faith healing used by some Christians.

Cheers

I have come across the Gawler Foundation when my colleague / friend
was diagnosed with brain cancer.  His cancer has since gone into
remission for about 6 years and his story has been a very encouraging
one to relate. As I get to know more about what the Ian Gawler
Foundation does - how it has helped many to heal in both mind and body
- I thought that it may be relevant to share here on self-help. To
read more, go to the following site : -

http://www.gawler.org/html/s01_home/home.asp

Their advice on meditation and food is something worth spending some
time on. Many cancer and MS (multiple scleriosis) sufferers have found
healing in their work and programmes. If this has helped people with
such dire illnesses, think of what it can do for people with lesser
illness ....

Warm regards,
George

THE PARADOXICAL PRACTICE OF NON-MEDITATION
by Michael Neill

"Love is, in fact, our most natural state. There isn't anything we really
have to 'do' to access love in our lives other than slow down and become
present enough to feel and experience it." - Richard Carlson

On my radio show this past week, one of my callers was struggling to quiet
her restless mind. I asked her this metaphoric question:

*If you had some cloudy, sediment-rich water and wanted to make it clear,
what would you do?

Her answer was that she would boil it, which made me laugh because that's
exactly what so many of us have learned to do in an attempt to gain
clarity out of our own, noisy minds. We stir them up by continually
thinking about our problems, trying to figure out "what's really going on"
with us, or if we are spiritually inclined, meditating in the hopes of
finding our way to the source of all our experience.

While any one of these techniques may eventually result in insights,
clarity and peace of mind, I have come to see that the reason they work is
less to do with the techniques themselves than it is to do with the nature
of the mind.

Let's go back to our murky water analogy. Since the essential nature of
water is clear, the simplest way to get back to clarity, no matter how
cloudy the water may appear, is to leave the water alone and allow the
sediment to settle.

The same is true of the mind. Your mind is not the source of thought - it
is the space in which thoughts arise and fade away (if we let them). It is
the ocean, not the waves.

While meditation is traditionally taught as a way of 'waking up' from the
illusions of thought, what I have found most useful in seeing through to
the heart of my own story and the stories of my clients is closer to what
Tibetan Buddhists call 'undistracted non-meditation' - 'undistracted'
because you deliberately slow down and minimize distractions;
'non-meditation' because you are not concentrating on anything in
particular.

I was first introduced to this idea by my spiritual coach, mentor and
friend Peter Fenner. Here's how he describes it in his wonderful book,
"Radiant Mind - Awakening Unconditioned Awareness":

"When contemplation goes beyond the need for any effort or structure, it
becomes what Tibetans call "natural contemplation." Natural contemplation
is the
experience of finding ourselves in a clear and serene state of mind,
without needing any discipline or practice. That is why it's also called
the meditation that's not meditation-or non-meditation. We have no need
for meditation because we're complete in every sense of the word.

In the state of natural contemplation, we touch everything that arises in
our experience without any resistance, we no longer reject or grasp at
particular thoughts and feelings, and we spontaneously share our serenity
and clarity with others in a simple and uncontrived manner. At this point,
meditation has become the context for our existence, rather than a
particular activity we do at certain times of the day. It's the experience
of resting in unconditioned awareness, while being present to, and engaged
with, the dynamic flux of our conditioned experience."

While this is a natural state, and therefore available to any one of us in
any moment, some people find that concept far too simple to take
seriously. So for those of you who really enjoy having a practice or
technique for grounding, here is the paradoxical "practice" of
non-meditation:

1. Sit for 20 minutes.
2. Don't get up.
3. Don't talk, write or engage in any other obvious external distractions.
4. Let your mind go wherever it wants.

There is no way to get this wrong - as long as you remain sitting (you can
move about in your seat if you like), you're engaged in the practice.

Have fun, learn heaps, and happy exploring!

Coughing for the last few months with pain in the chest, patient went to
see a doctor, who took x-ray and did some examinations and wrote a
referral letter to a hospital. Upon check in to the hospital (UM), and
reading the referral letter, the hospital doctor quickly sent the patient
to an emergency ward and carried out some medical treatment. Later the
patient learned that if she was late by a few hours, she may not lived
anymore.

After hospitalization, with improvement in other symptoms, the patient
still suffered difficulty in breathing, feeling suffocation, i.e. “no easy
and restricted flow of air and blockages in the upper part of the lungs”.
The degree of the discomfort was a rating of 6 out of 10, 10 being most
severe.

During the energy tapping session, I could see her, after saying a few
words, she felt difficulty in breathing, with pain and discomfort in the
lungs. And she coughed.

After first round of energy tapping, the discomfort level reduced from 6
to 5.

I asked her whether she had similar experience in life the feeling of “no
easy flow” “things not going your way” “blockages and resistance”, at
first she said no, the she related her marriage problem.

Energy tapping was carried out on the marriage problem, with details kept
to herself. The rating dropped fast, from 5 to 2.

By this time, she felt lightness and easy flow of air, less constrictions.

She wondered, “is my health problem related to my emotional issue?”

We tapped on that “ever though I am not sure whether there is relationship
between my health problem and emotional issues ….”

After a few more round of energy tapping, the rating went down to almost
zero.

“Even though the rating went down to zero. Or almost zero, with maybe 0,2
or 0,3 reminds, I continue to forgive and accept myself”.

It was obvious by that time, there was no more difficulty in breathing,
further talking did not result in any cough and she felt lighter and more
cheerful.

As she practices energy healing by hand, and meditation, she was
encouraged to do her daily meditation to strengthen her overall body
health and boost up her immerse system to protect herself from any other
future emotional attack.

Subject: [healsys] Stress, Sickness and Healing

Most suffering, sickness or disease can be stress-related –  a general statement.

Negative emotion, be it stress, disturbed mind, with the associated pain, suffering, dysfunction situation, poor performance, depression, insomnia, some leading to more severe sickness or disease like cancers etc. etc. is generally understood to be caused by past or present un-pleasant memory, trauma, experience. (besides food we eat and air we breath, or environment we live in).

With that as the underlying premise, effort is made towards tackling the root cause – to re-visit the past negative drama with the hope of infusing some positive perspectives or re-writing the event, as carried out by therapist, psychologist, counselors, or coaches, or injection of positive thinking, affirmation or will-power by motivators. Often it is time consuming process, not always with high rate of success. And modern medicine uses drug and chemicals to suppress or physically prevent or stop the behavior of the neurons.

Mr. "A" suffers depressions, never performs up to his potentials, and has phobia of height. Tracing back, it was found that he met an accident, with him in a car overhanging a cliff - a traumatic experience when he as a young boy.

Is that traumatic past experience the cause of his conditions today?

Using the above logic, it will be so.

However, together with him are his other siblings, some younger, other older. But they do not suffer the conditions Mr. A is in? How come?

"The cause of all negative emotions is the disruption in the body energy system." – Gary Craig, founder of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)

Using this new premise, attention is now drawn to restoration of the body energy system, not modern medicine, conventional therapist, drugs or herbs or supplements.

This leads to proliferation of energy healing systems like Qigong, Yoga, Hand Energy Healing, Meditation, Reiki, Prayer, etc.

The new practices take a lot of patience and discipline, belief and commitment, often years to gain the mastery and see the positive effects.

Gary Craig makes popular a simple, fast and effective method, which he calls EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) to restore health and achieve well being. EFT gets the patient to focus or tune into the negative emotion and mobilize the body energy by tapping on some acupuncture points of the body.

Testimonials and many more testimonials of years old suffering, insomnia, migraine,  pain, depression etc. etc show fast or instant cure (some as short as 10 min session), without any more recurrence in using EFT.

Why such speedy healing as compared with years of practice of Qigong, Yoga, meditation etc.?

"The biggest factor that causes blockage of the body's healing energy is emotional issues, particularly how these are stored in—and processed by—the body. Stress and negative emotions aren't in the head; they are stored as tensions in the body" – Dr.Eric Robbins

Dr. Eric Robbins continues ..

Interestingly, it is not our negative emotions that cause the problem—but rather our resistance to feeling these emotions. My friend and internationally known psychologist Gay Hendricks once said, "All emotions are gentle and short-lived, unless we resist feeling them."

 Qigong, Yoga or Energy healing by hand practitioners appear to ignore the above – the attention and feeling of the negative emotion. They concentrate on their breathing, movement of the body (as required by Qigong or Yoga procedures), or stillness of the mind in meditation, (not the feeling of the negative emotion), although eventually (after long years) such practice helps the Qi to flow, unblock the stuck energy in the body.

 Again to borrow Dr. Eric Robbin's words, as my concluding remarks :

 "We are blessed today with simple, inexpensive, accessible techniques that have the potential to revolutionize our sense of wellness, shift the patterns that trap us in chronic disease, and dramatically raise our thresholds of happiness. I challenge you to experiment with these methods and see what results they produce in your own life. And as you have the courage to travel healing journey, I salute the divinity within you and trust God's blessings with you always."

Early my wife visited a homeopathic doctor over a health issue - no cure
and life long medication (with negative side effect) as far as Modern
Medicine is concerned.

On every visit, the homeopathic doctor, instead of talking about the
medical symptoms, spent hours talking to my wife about her lifestyle,
childhood, state of mind, emotion.

Together with her daily meditation and enery healing, her health condition
improves tremendously.

Recently, my friend having sharp pain on her shoulders for last 3-4 years
every morning upon waking up, got her sharp pain dis-appeared after I
introduce her EFT and coaching her to surface hidden issues, emotional
blockages.

Yes, I agree it is beneficial to look at the belief system, how the mind
works rather than treating the symptoms at the physical level with physics
and chemistry only.

Greetings and Happy New Year – 2008

I will like to welcome you to this new egroup on Healing Systems (refer
introduction at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/healsys/ )

It is hoped that this e-discussion helps us to discover various diverse
Healing Systems and the underlying principles, which eventually helps us
to be effective in a particular healing system that we choose.

First, I will like to share Dr. Tad James’ 7-Principles on Healing

________________________________________________________________________

1) All Healing is Self-healing

2) Client has his or her free-will. Oftentimes, client's un-conscious mind
may have reason not wanting to get well, maybe due to secondary gain.
Healer has to help to intervene

3) The client and healer will not actualize the belief that the healer
does not believe to be true.

4) The body has its intelligence and mechanics of healing.

5) The origin of disease is not the same as the disease . The origin of
disease can only be accomplished at non-physical level.

6) Mind and Body healing needs to be accompanied by significant shift in
consciousness or major change in lifestyle.

7) Non-attachment to the outcome of healer - an important mindset of the
healer, just caring and loving attitudes towards the client, that he or
she is magnificent person whether he or she chooses to live or not.


You may find that some of the above stated principles are closely related
e.g. 2) if a patient free-will (conscious or unconscious mind) chooses not
to get well, there is no 1) self-healing, no matter how powerful is the
“healer” who may heal thousands.

You may also find that modern medicine do not use the above principles.

What are your views and experiences?
