What is Faith Healing?

A picture is worth a thousand words

Someone commented on my Facebook ad, “Oh goodie! A local faith healer!”

I can see how the image of the woman’s body responding to breath and energy being liberated into the higher brain might have disturbed him. It is an unusual photograph! And where did he get this idea that it was “Faith Healing”? I also wonder who’s definition of faith he is using for his comment?

What is this strange picture anyway?

Higher Brain Living is a personal development system that includes a gentle touch technique that awakens the dormant structures of the pre-frontal cortex (PFC), also called the higher brain. These structures are liberated through a specific protocol of touch and breath. This movement of breath and energy is like a wave and after doing the technique daily for a while, the wave of breath is often followed by a wave in the spine. This movement is just an expression of energy moving and stress reduction in the nervous system. Not everyone expresses the energy in this way and even those that do do not necessarily have the same response each time they engage their PFC. This photograph caught the wave of breath in the middle of a cycle. It sure gets people to stop and look at the ad!

You see that energy so vital to the PFC to unlock our unlimited potential in this evolutionary newest part of the brain, is typically hijacked by the lower, reptilian brain, and it keeps us stuck in fight or flight. The lower brain is the part of the physical system that responds to danger and every day stress like it;s all coming on the heels of a saber tooth tiger chasing us. The lower brain is in overdrive in our modern age. Desperately doing it’s job to keep us sage, is also keeps us stuck in fear, overwhelm, anxiety and negative thoughts.

It’s REAL help for those ready to commit fully to being responsible for their outcomes. For some it can be a hero’s journey that has to push through the resistance and for some it just becomes logical and the benefits of the change outweigh the momentary sting of it. It’s breakthrough living – letting go of struggle and drama and creating your life as you choose it.

Tapping into your unlimited potential, creating new, healthy habits and changing your thought patterns to build your life the way YOU picture it is much more than faith healing.

Right after I responded to the ad, I read what a new client wrote about her experience for me after her session that day:

“I experienced a deep sense of relaxation and the desire to surrender. I connect fully with our creator, Krishna. This experience intensified my faith and belief that the material world is temporary and we are all energies of the Supreme Lord waiting to serve our purpose on earth and reunite with him. Thank you for helping me have this wonderful realization and reinstatement of my faith. ” Recent UT grad, School of Engineering

If that description is what the person commenting on my ad is referring to as “faith healing”, then I would say he is correct and I accept the generous compliment.

Namaste
