Can anyone be a healer ?

[jean]

I have many times had people over the years ask if they to can be a healer. I believe every human being can heal themselves. In fact us healers are the conductors the person receiving is the master healer.

I concur...all can be healers.. though it is usually after one has done their own personal work in healing themselves through Creator. Once personal work is done and the awareness has come to them in how to achieve the gift of healing and the knowledge in how each one is to perform their work, then the Healing work may begin <3

Michael, I hear what you are saying and i believe we are all healers, and also need to heal our stuff, and the more we do the stronger we become as healers.

Sometimes it is a bigger challenge to heal ourselves, and much easier to heal others. I believe that no matter what method of healing you use, by healing others, we are clearing the pathway to our own self healing if we are willing to accept some of that energy for ourselves.

Loon witch, I so agree with you. It can be such a challenge to heal ourselves. It is sometimes easy for me to see or "feel" others and know what needs to be said or done but look in that mirror and boy do i struggle. lol

It is much harder for me to see and deal with my own stuff, because I am stuck in the middle of it! With others, I can observe from an objective standpoint.

But I do think that we can change (I would rather use that word than the word "heal") ourselves if we are willing to spend time alone doing a great deal of introspection, and be willing to take responsibility for our own lives, without blaming others or ourselves. Then we can look at what we don't like and decide to change it. When we really make a decision and a commitment to changing something, then it happens. It is a little scarey to take full responsibility for our own lives, though! No one to blame! It's so much easier when we can blame someone or something!

I think sometimes it is very painful to come to "terms" with the mistakes of our past too. It is much easier to pretend they are not there then to process them for what they are, accept the lessons we learned, and forgive ourselves while moving forward. Those emotions involved in that process are intense at times and without the right encouragement from self or others it is easy to not complete the process.

Yes, Tavin, I still cringe when I think of some of the things I did in my teens and twenties. Still, I know that if I hadn't done them, I would not be so clear about the fact that I do NOT now want to do them again!

I went through a phase in my life when I wanted to apologise to everyone I had ever known. I did manage to apologise to a few of them (most of the others are gone out of my life), and they all looked surprised and said something like, "Oh you were no worse than anyone else!" It was a good perspective to get.

[tavin]

That is so true without my experiences of the past I would have not learned some of the amazing things i know now and for that i am grateful.

That is an interesting perspective. I never thought of it like that.

so very true Tavin and Sha, I used to cringe, and now I am able to have peace. We all make mistakes the important thing is to learn and move forward. I always say our painful moments are huge blessings and gifts. When i go through a painful time, I say, thank you for this blessing and then i kick it on out of me for good.
