FEAR AND "DIS-EASE"

Fear is the usual feeling when life is uncertain.  Unfortunately, it feels horrible and lowers your mood, vibration and possibly your immune system.  Research is now revealing that feelings of stress, fear and anxiety can contribute to medical problems which can also be called, "Dis-ease."  As a licensed mental health counselor, I see clients who experience unwanted feelings like these quite often and speak of them in our sessions. How does discussing this help a client?

Research shows that a good rapport between a clinician and a client is very beneficial and results in hope which often extinguishes fear.  This can raise mood/vibration and facilitate the processing of feelings and the ability to create a new, more positive and empowered story.  This optimistic vibration facilitates the achievement of good mental/medical health. In this frame of mind, it is also easier to deconstruct events and understand which buttons are being pushed.

The impetus for writing on this topic today, came from a conversation about a "healer" in Brazil who calls himself, John of God.  Then he turned up in the book I'm reading, "Co-creating at Its Best" by Wayne Dyer and Esther Hicks.  This book is a transcript of a conversation between Wayne Dyer and a "wise, collective consciousness," Abraham Hicks.

In the book, when Wayne told Abraham the story about this man who psychically healed his cancer, Abraham told him that he healed himself; that John of God allowed him to relax long enough to allow this vibration of self healing. I've heard that when someone is using Reiki to heal someone, they are helping their client to heal themselves.

So, is a mental health counseling session similar to a Reiki or John of God session?  During therapy, can we learn to separate from our fears, raise our vibrations and relax enough to heal ourselves? Is your therapist helping you to heal yourself?

Let me know what you think!
