Helpful Advice For Those Receiving Healing
(For guidance only - don’t worry if you can’t remember it all at the time!)

Just before your healing session
Get yourself into a calm relaxed state as much as possible. Avoid rushing around beforehand. Let go of any worrying thoughts you may be carrying round with you, or anything which has been happening to you recently. Tell your healer about anything which is bothering you, and how you have been since the last session but try to detach yourself from it all before the healing actually starts.
Prepare yourself beforehand with some positive affirmations. e.g. “I am now totally receptive to the healing energy” or “I now receive wonderful healing which I know is helping me”. Use words which you feel comfortable with to get yourself into a positive state of mind. It is important to be as positive about it all as you can, as this helps the healing energy to flow through you and put right whatever is wrong.

During the Healing Session
All you need to do is allow yourself to relax. Don’t try too hard ... just allow it to happen. Sink into the chair and let go. Your healer will guide you. The more relaxed you are the more you can help the healing energy to flow. Think peaceful, positive, pleasant thoughts. Remember that this is your time, your own special time for healing, so outside concerns can safely be left aside. If worrying or everyday, mundane thoughts intrude, just let them go as soon as you become aware of them and continue with your affirmations quietly in your mind. Use the ones you felt comfortable with before e.g. “I am now totally receptive to the healing energy” or “I now receive wonderful healing which I know is helping me.
If you find yourself getting tense, or pain is a distraction and stops you relaxing, don’t worry about it - the healing will still flow even if you can’t get as relaxed as you would like to do.

After the healing session
Try to have a rest or a lie down immediately afterwards if possible, or as soon as you can manage it as this helps the healing energy to continue working in you. Affirm, “The healing energy continues to work in me for my greatest good”.

Between Sessions
Any time you can sit down and relax quietly by yourself, close your eyes and relax and try to imagine that you are having healing. You can say a little prayer or affirmation asking for healing to come to you, but just remembering the feelings and experiences you had during healing, however slight or subtle they were will help to bring more healing to you. If you can play quiet music or light a candle to ‘set the scene’ it will help to make the experience more real for you. Imagine that a golden light of healing energy is enfolding you, or that there are healing angels around you, whatever you feel comfortable with. Then just sit in that healing light for as long as you wish, enjoying it and knowing that you are receiving more healing.
Each morning, look at yourself in the mirror, look into your own eyes and say firmly and confidently, “Every day in every way I am getting better and better”. Say it several times to yourself and whenever you remember. And know without doubt that it is happening.

These are all ways you can help the healing process yourself.
Your healer may have some ideas for you too.
The Healing Minute
Every night at 10pm. healers link up in prayerful thought to send distant healing to the sick. A worthwhile way to help yourself and to receive additional healing is to sit quietly at this time or lie in bed comfortably and link in thought with them.
