How to Switch on the Healing Brain

Many people have come to me for healing over the past 30 years. In all cases, especially with what I call ‘canswer,’ what I see creates healing is a fun-da-mental shift in the understanding how the mind and body are functioning and communicating. Like igniting an internal ‘switch,’ a light goes on that helps us to see the mechanics of how our internal self operates. Once that reveals itself, many changes can begin to take place.

New science is beginning to fill in the medical puzzle in ways unthought-of of before. The scientific community is beginning to quantify what seers have always known. Spiritualists call it the ‘spark of life’ and scientists now know that what makes us up are indeed, electrical impulses. For example, you are able to read this because electrical impulses inform the brain which then ‘switches’ on our chemistry. Electricity fuels everything we feel, think and do. Moreover, those electrical impulses are not entirely outside of our control.

In this light, I find it’s not as much what therapy or protocol one is taking that works, but who we actually think we are that counts. It is our ‘cellf’ image – the image that resides in our brain cells and inner self, – that is developing the quality of our cellular function. If we are unconsciously not feeling worthy or choosing resentment over self-love, then the body cannot cope with the mixed messages. I have seen people who grasp this deeply, make remarkable changes.

Just like messages on our cell phones, the internal cellular  answering machine can get too full of hurtful recordings. When that happens, we can no longer see the answer because the computer/mind is too active and too full. We keep trying to add things, (chemical agents, nutriceuticals, radiation) when we should first be deleting things. First clean house; assuaging emotional clutter. Then we can see the right path. This is the feminine power of healing; which is almost totally missing in our medicine today.

The memory banks of our bodymindsoul begin to mutate in the face of the overwhelming stress or trauma messages in hopes of finding new expanded coordinates. Leaving our body is one way of getting that expansion.

But, a different story is possible. Becoming unbounded by outdated sensations, memories and mental chatter instead of frantically trying to fix it, should be the first order of business. The energy of fear and the outside search itself, done without awareness, can inhibit our own knowingness. We invariably go where the answers aren’t.

We cannot drive and cook at the same time. And we can’t find the answer while being engaged in the trap of trying to control what we cannot control. We also can tend to be blinded by all the things that we think we already know.

The trick is to realize that underneath all the self-talk, sensations, pictures in our minds’ eye – the words and sounds and ideas and beliefs – is an empty canvas on which all of theses memories and senses of ‘me’ appear. But, we are not the mind. We are awareness itself.

This is the new physics. It is incredibly frustrating to get people who believe the world is flat (made only from chemical physical processes) to see that it is indeed not. Our environment, thoughts, moods, reactions, traumas, all set off chemical reactions. This process of uncovering and re-connecting to ourselves in a healthier way and seeing a new picture is my expertise, but I can only do so much.  A person has to be willing to take this incredible leap into the new and unknown.
