In my class and when I go for healings, my healer and teachers talk about the inner child. A few years ago in pop psychology, it was popular to talk about the inner child and letting him/her out to play. There is truth to that, adults do not play enough. Even when they play they mean business or they have to have expensive equipment, etc. They don't play as a child does. A child can make play from anything. But, that's not what I want to address. What I have learned in classes, etc. is that whenever we are feeling pain, anxiety, anger, and especially fear, it is stemming from something that happened to us as a child. (Yes, it's true about joy and happiness also but most of us don't have a problem with experiencing those emotions.) The analogy is that we have many children inside of us. They are ourselves at the many different ages and stages of our life. If I am having an anxiety attack or fearful about something that my logical mind knows is really something small ...

I am currently in my third and last year of classes for Transformational Energy Healing. This year, along with learning a few more types of energy healing, we are learning about archetypes. Carl Jung was instrumental in the theory of archetypes and how we use various ones at various times to live our lives. Carolyn Myss took the theory a step further and identified many more archetypes and their light and dark aspects. This is talked about in her book, "Sacred Contracts". Not an easy read but very informative. It is our main text for this year. There are a few other books we are reading this year. The one I am currently reading is by Debbie Ford called, "The Dark Side of the Light Chasers." Energy workers and other holistic-type healers are also called lightworkers. I think that comes from the fact that we are trying to bring light, lightness and enlightenment to ourselves and other. So, when I first saw the title of the book, I was thinking dark as in ...

Way back in January 2007, during one of the classes for Transformational Energy Healing, each of the students had to do a healing on another student while all the other classmates and the teachers watched. We had already done many healings over the course of the past year and a half but never while everyone watched. I was not worried, but each of us always wonders if the person we are working on will feel anything and we were each a little apprehensive about being "on the spot'. We chose who we wanted to work with and what music we wanted to use. We use music as a way for us to focus and it also helps calm people. I tend to choose music with a Native American feel to it. Each of our classmates took notes on their impression of the healing and gave the notes to the healer to reflect on. One of the teachers was writing during the healing and after we each had our turn, she read the messages to us. It was a very powerful and empowering moment and such an affirmation ...

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. by Marianne Williamson from A Return To Love
