Reference….. Sample, Testing Your Alternative Healing
Sending light, drawing symbols. Crystals. Distance healers as an alternative healing therapy. Do they make a difference? I guess they don’t hurt. If however you are spending money you want to establish the money you spend is worthwhile.
There are many people around offering such services. Because they are “spiritual” there is a natural reluctance to subject these treatments and services to critical thinking. When I have voiced concerns in the past I was met with strong opposition with no logical argument or supportive proof.
An small but growing industry has emerged as people seek to fill the chasm that has due to dissatisfaction with churches. Within this treatments are intuitively made up and there is much divine guidance. Increasingly it is difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff.
I propose a simple solution. Many years ago I worked as a laboratory technician. The machines would constantly move from reference (or the known substance) to the sample (the unknown). In this way we could track down mistakes easily because the results for the reference would be noticeably out.
A great way of determining whether or not a spiritual healer is worth contributing time or money to is to set criteria to measure the results by, and limit the time frame.
Don’t be vague and use something like “I feel better”. This is too general. Spiritual healers more than any others are difficult to pin down when it comes to results.
I felt something” is a better measure. Other indicators, such as symbolic dreams are excellent. If you do want to remember your dreams a combination of B6 and Zinc may be helpful.* Sometimes we are advised to look for symbols. This isn’t the best method because we tend to see symbols anywhere if we are actively looking for them.
Serendipity is an awesome experience but one that should be allowed rather than sort out, shouldn’t it? It wouldn’t be as magical if we go behind the scenes to manipulate the trick.
Ideally alternative healing and spiritual healing should lift our spirits more than our pocket book.

Spirtual healing can be just like a placebo, or hypnotic pill. If you believe it can help it will, if you do not it will not help. There was a study done on praying. If you are ill in the hospital and 1000 pray for you, and you do not know it is happening, there are no results of getting better. On the other hand if the same 1000 people pray for you and you do know about it then there is better results. The power of the mind is amazing, unfortunately we use such a small percentage of it.

Spiritual healing like everything else has its place and it is up to each individual to find that place.

Keri,
I too think it is the clients duty to know or feel what the best results are.

I agree while also saying that there is balance in the exchange in the universe.
There always needs to be some reference we can compare to in order to gage efficacy.

Keri, you are a smart one to propose such a simple solution. I contacted a spiritual healer last december to walk me through a nasty recurring problem, namely certain clients would not pay . . . by January I was getting paid. By August I was billing more a month than the previous years. when there is something to be unlocked, it doesn’t hurt to find a “local” locksmith. I’m still Catholic, but I appreciate a little human-divine help too.

Being clear about your objective, I want to resolve X, will help you not only gauge the healer, but also will give the healer appropriate parameters. A good healer wants to help you, parameters get you started in the right direction.

I am not very spiritual, but certainly being clear about what you want and realizing what you actually got is very important.

Hi Keri,
how drole that you would cite how churches are dissatisfying and then use the church’s Biblical metaphor of the wheat and the chafe….
Indeed, it essential to establish selection criteria for investing our precious time and money both for initial investment as well as over a period of time, continuing it.

Keri,
Spiritual healing can be quite slippery to grasp.
I have listened to Philip Day’s talks and read his books. Learn about his reserach result on cancer a fair bit too.
