5 Levels of Healing

Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt developed this systematic model of healing in the 1980s and has been teaching it to practitioners all over the world since then.  Many doctors and healers have been able to understand their own work better and have been able to make better choices for their patients and their own education based on this understanding.  This model has already entered the heart and conscious reality of integrative medicine worldwide.

The Five Levels of Healing in the Body

Did you know that there are five very separate yet profoundly interconnected levels of health in the body?

Secrets of the Universe, Hidden Treasures, Counterfeits and Truth

I've written much about my journey in coming to learn of the "Healing Arts" (which include many therapies that may be familiar, such as massage therapy, light therapy, magnetic therapy, sound therapy, herbal medicine, acupuncture etc, as well as more unfamiliar, less mainstream therapies such as energy healing, cranio sacral work, foot zoning, etc) A wonderful awakening seems to be occurring, where science is catching up with what healers have known for centuries: our bodies are more than the physical; pain, trauma and imbalances can be corrected, and prevented by focusing on the emotional, mental, and energetic layers outside the physical layer, and that the application of both neuroscience and physics in medicine can yield dramatic results, far beyond the results of our current medical model, which focuses almost solely on the application of chemistry in medicine. 

Energy based modalities are still science based...just a different field of science. 

Unfortunately, one thing energy healers have to contend with, seemingly constantly, is attacks from those who do not understand what energy medicine is, and what it is not.(1)  

Our tears carry the emotions of our experiences...evidence of emotional energy affecting matter!

Our different tears have very different molecular structure! But when you think about it, it makes perfect sense as our tears have very different functions depending on the kind of emotion they are carrying. In these pictures, we see tears of grief, change, onions and laughing.

One thing they have in common:

They all carry experience.

The Power of Sound and Frequency

Think energy and frequency don't affect matter?

Think again.

The power of sound and frequency. Knowing that our bodies consist of mostly water, change is easy.

The Power of Your Words...

Words are powerful. We can change our lives in moments by changing our thoughts and words. Thoughts are the seeds that we plant and words often carry forth the actions of our thoughts. God created the universe first through a thought and then with the spoken word, “Let there be Light.”

Our internal dialogue has enormous effect on every aspect of our lives; physically, emotionally mentally and spiritually. Dr. David Pesek, teacher of the School of Natural Healing’s Iridology course, had this to say about thoughts and our health, “There is always a physical reason (for poor health) but thought and emotion always come first. No one has a physical condition without a thought and emotional relationship to it. It just doesn’t happen any other way.”

What is Foot Zone Therapy?

What happens during a foot zone session?  During a typical session, the Foot Zone Practitioner will use their hands, fingers, thumbs, and knuckles to stimulate the signals on the foot.  Occasionally there will be discomfort which is an indication of disharmony in a signal.  A session will typically take about 90 minutes but may take longer depending on the other energy services that the Practitioner provides.

What are the benefits of foot zoning?  The purpose of the foot zone technique is to help bring the body into balance.  The body is designed to heal itself and will do so in the order that will provide lasting benefits.  It can sometimes take 6-10 foot zone sessions for the body to reach a state of homeostasis.  Then regular maintenance sessions are typically enough to keep the body in balance.

Following the first zone session, clients typically report that they either have a lot of energy or they feel very tired (the body heals as you sleep).  Because it can take up to 4 days for the full benefits of a foot zone session to be manifest, some report that they feel no difference (other than a feeling relaxation) for days after a session, but on the third day they face-plant on the bed and sleep for 12 hours.

Every session will be different and every person will experience different benefits and effects.  These are a few of the reported benefits and reactions.

Quote for the Day: Put the Glass Down!

A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they'd be asked the "half empty or half full" question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: "How heavy is this glass of water?"

Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.

She replied, "The absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it's not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn't change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes."

She continued, "The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed – incapable of doing anything."

Remember to put the glass down.

What is a Healing Crisis?

By Tarilee Cornish, CNP

"The body is a complex organism that does interesting things as it heals."

I prefer to characterize to a "healing crisis" as an "intense healing event". The latter term actively frames the phenomenon as a positive and productive experience rather than implying that it is undesirable. During healing, your body sets to work cleansing and regenerating. It is the sensation of this cleansing and healing process that has come to be known as a healing crisis.

"An intense healing event is a normal part of an accelerated healing process. It occurs when the body gathers enough strength to deal with the cleansing and regeneration needed to achieve an improved condition of health." - David Saterlee

How Can I Learn to Muscle Test?

I get asked this question a lot. It's much simpler than you might imagine, but it does take lots and lots of practice. You have to learn to use your instrument (your body), and to fine-tune your sensitivity and skill, just like learning to use any other instrument, say learning the piano or to play the violin.
