Cleaning the Aura During a Therapy Session

Core energetic therapy is designed to help people release blocks from their auric field through focus and physical exertion. Figure 11-4 illustrates just such a release. By leaning backwards over a padded stool, the muscles of the torso are stretched and begin to relax. This brings about an energetic release, and the block lets go. The client had a strong energy block in the muscles just in front of the spine near the diaphragmatic hinge. While he was working on the bioenergetic stool, this block suddenly released with a burst of energy. The “energy cloud” quickly moved up along the spine. When it reached the head of the client and broke into his consciousness, I observed his going another into another space of reality. He began to cry and express early childhood pain. As he expressed his feelings, he released more and more of the energy cloud, and it moved out of his field.
            The following is a description of what happens during a typical therapy session. First some background information on the client whom I will call Susan.
            Susan was a beautiful blonde woman in her late twenties, a professional therapist, had a very nourishing and stable marriage and were leaders among their peers. They met and married very young. Susan’s father had died accidentally two weeks before she was born. Her mother was left with a new baby and two young boys to care for. She had little or no income and had to ask other people to take Susan into their home to care for her. Susan grew up in two homes: one a very clean, orderly and strictly Christian home; the other, her mother’s disheveled home. Her mother was never able to heal the wound of losing her husband such an important time. She never married again, but had many lovers.
            Susan’s early marriage satisfied her need to have a man care for her, since she never really had a father. Susan also carried with her the fear that she would never really make a marriage work (like her mother) or that she had to be perfect to do so (as with the religious family).
            When Susan came to her session one morning, she was apparently very happy and cheerful. She spoke about her week with her husband. As she spoke and moved her arms, she threw up a pink and white cloud of “happiness” (Figure- 11-5). However this happiness was serving to cover deep feelings revealed by her energy field. My observations showed there was a block, seen as a dark gray spot in the solar plexus (stomach area), related to fear and other feelings. The secondary block was in the forehead (lighter gray, indicating mental confusion, which directly connected to emotional pain in her heart (red). She displayed a lot of mental activity (high energy) on the sides of the head (yellow). She also had a lot of vibrant life-sexual energy held in her pelvis (red-orange).
            As she continued to move her arms and talk cheerfully in a manner that threw up pink and white soft clouds, the bright e also had a lot of vibrant life-sexual energy held in her pelvis (red-orange).
            As she continued to move her arms and talk cheerfully in a manner that threw up pink and white soft clouds, the bright yellow radiating energy from the sides of the head began to cover over and mask the gray forehead problem area. She was literally convincing herself that she was happy by masking the gray with yellow (mental) energy. When I described what I was seeing, she immediately stopped creating the “false” pink cloud. The gray area in the head regained its original range.
            Susan’s composure completely changed to fear and emotional pain. Then she began to share what was really going on. Shortly before Susan had come to her weekly session, she had found out that her mother was in the hospital with a kind of paralysis of the eyes. The physician in charge had suggested that it was a symptom of a serious disease, such as multiple sclerosis. Susan was very upset about this situation and needed to have her strength to go through all the various feelings she was having about her mother. By blocking her life-sexual energy in her pelvis and not allowing it to flow down her legs, she was blocking herself off from the ground and her foundation as a human being on the earth. So it was important at this point in the session to move that energy down into the earth and connect her to her energetic foundation, the power in her legs and pelvis.
           
Who Is Healed?                                                                                   p. 278

The healer must remember that it is the healing of the soul that we are working for. It is important for healers to understand death in this way and to treat the whole person, not just this incarnation of the person. The healer must not give up healing someone simply because he or she may be physically dying.
            It is important to keep two things in mind when we are trying to understand just what we are doing as healers. One is that there is deep meaning in each person’s experience of his illness, and two is that death does not imply failure, but probably healing. In order to remember this, the healer must live in two worlds, the spiritual and the physical. It is only by being centered within herself and the universe that she can go through the experience of continually witnessing the deep pain that is so widespread in humanity. I asked my friend Emmanuel about this with the following question: “If we create our illness, isn’t going to a healer a way to distract us from working on ourselves, working on the source of the disease?”
            Emmanuel said, “That all depends on why you go to the healer, and which healer you go to. That is an excellent question, and one, may I dare say, that our healer has asked herself a lot. What is the responsibility and, therefore, what is to be given and what is to be received, and if something is envisioned, is it to be said? The questions never end, and yet there is a basic fundamental reality that should give you comfort. When there is the moment of realization that perhaps there is another mode of healing, than already a door has been opened, already the consciousness has reached beyond the physically manifested available medical care. Now, I am not in any way degrading the medical profession. Doctors do excellent work; some are most guided and would be free to admit it to you behind closed doors. There are others who, whether they be in the medical profession or another form of making a living, simply are not aware and are not at this point able to be aware. This does not mean that they are mean, cruel, vicious or evil; it simply means that they have yet to come into the area of knowing. It behooves you to be willing to bless them and go on your way and find someone who feels more compatible with your consciousness, and you all know how to do that. When you find the calling to move into the area of spiritual healing (I do not say psychic healing; I say spiritual healing) then there is the awareness of spirit, and you are welcomed by the healer and the spirits who are there to work with that healer. Now often there is not the healing that is expected. Often there is, perhaps, identification and easing of discomfort, but no miracle. Well, what does that mean? It means that is as far as your consciousness will go at that point. It means that there is something else to learn; there is something else to know. For every physical body is a schoolroom and every disease is a lesson. Not in a punitive way, for you have written your own text; you have chosen your own bodies that carry with them all of the weaknesses that, yes, may be said are genetic because your grandmother or grandfather had something. But remember you chose them as well. So you need to trust your body not only in illness, but especially in illness, for what is it saying to you? There are many ways of hearing this, and a qualified spiritual healer can be most effective there, to help you hear what it is that your body is saying to you. Certainly you are the one who is able to best understand it for it is within your language that your body has been formed, and it is to you, directly, that it is speaking. But a spiritual healer can alter the consciousness to the oneness again and can bring you into alignment with the truth. Whether you able to sustain that truth or whether you are able to heal an ailing body at that moment depends on so many factors that I could not even begin to enumerate them now. But you, yourselves, are perfectly capable of doing that. If there is, ultimately, what in your human terms is a failure- if someone would, heaven forbid, die- then you must see if all as a blessed event. That soul has completed its task, and there is a great and joyous welcoming committee greeting it in the primary reality. After all, your physical being was not meant to be infinite. You are not here to sit in these clothes forever. I hope that pleases you. Therefore, there are no failures in spiritual healing; there are only steps. Never be afraid to put your hand on another with love and compassion. Never hesitate to pray for someone. Do not demand results, for there is no way of knowing for sure what a particular soul requires. I understand that this demands, or seems to demand, an incredible amount of faith. Yes, it does.”
            As the body and mind become more purified through the transformative processes described in this book, the amount of power flowing through the healer increases and so does the range of vibrations. The higher the power, the more effective the healing, and the more sensitive the healer.
