The most remarkable healing that I have witnessed occurred over the time period of a year. A woman, body bent with pain that reached even to the soles of her feet, came to see me. Alice looked much older than her 50-odd years. Her hair and skin were dry and brittle, and she complained of fatigue and memory loss as well. Her doctors diagnosed her with severe neuropathy and gave her pain killers as treatment. Seeing me was her last ditch effort to find a way to heal.

Alice’s body demanded better feeding, more nutrition, and a deep cleansing. Her spirit demanded a release from the typical pattern of American life. Her emotional body was fine. Her course of action, as her Soul guided me, was to eat only protein and certain vegetables, take particular supplements and incorporate some of her family’s traditional foods into her life again.

The first signs of relief came in three weeks. Alice uncurled and had more flexibility. Each month, we used energy work and guidance as to what her body wanted in food, supplements, and exercise. The next month, Alice could clean house more often, walk and garden and, of course, cut down the pain killers. By the sixth month, she was no longer taking any pain killers and had begun to feel like herself again. Alice also lost 25 pounds as part of the detoxing effect of the body cleansing. At the end of the year, Alice complained only of a stiff shoulder and hip. On new directions, she went to see a chiropractor. During this time, she opened to greater spiritual awareness and began to more deeply honor her heritage and the earth. This continued to lead her and her husband to a much happier and healthier lifestyle.

Another client was a middle-aged man who came to see me with similar complaints to the woman with neuropathy. David was also depressed. The difference in what his course of action to heal entailed surprised me. His soul and emotions directed him to begin a mostly vegetable diet, with some fruit and small amounts of protein. He also used some supplements, but they were different than the woman’s. Mostly, David needed energy work to balance his brain and clear his charkas, aura, and past ties to people and places that were no longing serving him.

Intuitive guidance also suggested that David begin daily meditation. After seven months, David called to thank me for sending him on his spiritual journey. He felt better, younger and happier. Because he was so much healthier, I was fired – but I was happy about it, too!

In my view, the body and soul together form a unique pattern that determines the course of action for healing. Each individual’s response and ability to respond to their given guidance determines their healing rate and progress in health.
