Let’s talk about what is your responsibility as a Healer. First, think of it as a uniform you put on, amongst my team sometimes we use a very tongue-in-cheek statement like it is game time. The reason being is, when I personally step into that role, I have a responsibility to be honest, to take care and treat that person with as much possible grace and patience as I can, and to check my judgment at the door before I enter. All of these things, I view as my personal responsibility when I put on that hat as a Healer. If we were to take physical healing and just set it aside for a moment and just talk about some emotional weight that people carry or maybe a traumatic event they’re trying to move through, my personal judgment belongs nowhere in that conversation. More often than not if I’m entrenched in ego in those moments, I will inadvertently block the information that is coming through, and thus letting the person down or not providing the experience that they deserved.

Now I originally asked to set aside physical healing as I was explaining the above but there are also moments where the above can be true for the physical side as well. A great example of that is somebody consistently pushing himself too hard when working out and the expectation is that you’re going to heal their sore muscles because of their bad habits. You may receive information in that moment that that person needs to slow down or treat their body nicer or even be a bit more responsible with their workout habits, that information needs to be passed along, as it’s still that person’s responsibility for their journey and intentionally doing something to hurt themselves and then expecting to be healed sets up a scenario of imbalance. If you as the Healer don’t correct the situation more often than not, you will start noticing diminishing returns on your healing and it will become less and less effective for that person.

The above example is a common problem people face and they hear the lay person talk about healing being temporary. It doesn’t actually mean that the healing itself was temporary but sometimes the other person’s inability to rest or regroup as necessary is causing reinjury. Now on the surface it all sounds very simple, but these are the type of things that Healers deal with every day. The importance of one’s own self journey is to make sure that they are not only confident in the skills and abilities that they possess and have access to but also to use the communication with their team to be able to receive explanation or guidance on who and what is in front of them.  That wisdom has to be learned, sometimes through doing it the wrong way first.

Another common problem that Healers face is if they don’t have a high level of communication with their team, they tend to lean on body signaling to help guide them when they’re healing. Now just in case you’ve never heard that term before, body signaling is where you feel in your body what the person suffers from in their body. Coupling this with a high sense of curiosity from the Healer and they tend to remain open all the time to connect with whoever is around them, this can lead to a lot of confusion into one’s own body and the loss or muting of the ability to distinguish between the two. Although we will talk about body signaling in this course it’s one, I tend to teach people out of very quickly. I would much rather it remain in a toolbox and for you to only pull out once in a while if needed rather than you use it as your go-to communication method. This is one of the biggest reasons the prerequisite for this course is the Intuition Course which teaches a very direct way to communicate with your team word for word. The stronger your communication is with your team, the stronger Healer you can become.
