Healing Power
October 25, 2013
There was a well-known healer in the nineteenth century who is recorded as having once said to a class, “Love, love, love. That’s all you need to know to be a healer.” Quaker’s use the phrase “that of God within each person.” It’s clear to me that I know God within me when I realize my capacity to love. The first epistle of John reads “God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.” (1 John 14:16)
Love is our birthright, and every human has the capacity to love. I studied healing for four years with the Inner Focus School, and I remember one of my teachers saying that what he did for the hour or so of a healing session was to share his heart.
Even after these years of study, I can’t really say that I know what is happening during a healing session. But I know that I am present for another person in a way that i’m not usually present at other times. Whatever healing occurs is not from me, but from the love that is channelled through me.
I also know that there are specific techniques that can help people connect with love and channel it. I’ve explained one of these in a video.
The video makes mention of a retreat I will be facilitating, November 22-24 at Powell House in upstate New York. I will also be leading a session of about ninety minutes for Living Soulfully in Albany on November 6. Contact me if you have any questions about either of these events.
