Have you ever wondered if you can heal yourself? I'd like to suggest that this is not only a possibility but for many people it is a reality. Meditation and illness are on the two opposite poles of the health and healing spectrum. Meditation makes it possible for you to claim back the energy you spend during your everyday interactions!
As you claim more of this energy through various meditation techniques, you become like a walking, talking electromagnet. An electromagnet, like you, has two kinds of energy flowing through it - Electrical and Magnetic energy. The more you practice meditation the more balanced these energies become. And, as you consciously go about balancing your energies you will find yourself becoming a far more magnetic person.
Meditation + Energy = Health
Energy is the requirement to not only initiate but to see through any kind of change in your life. Perhaps it is an intimate relationship, material wealth or improved health that you would like to see come about. All these changes require energy to manifest. Most of your energy is already engaged in upholding your self image, beliefs and attitudes. There are basically 4 ways you can use this energy:
Store it;
Use it impeccably and consciously;
Squander it through self-importance;
Kiss it goodbye through the three most common and debilitating patterns in humanity: procrastination, indulgence and complacency.
The most powerful method is through the practice of meditation. Set a track record with the universe of storing and using your energy impeccably and you can heal yourself. Consciously direct your energy and attention on health and healing and the possibilities where you can heal yourself becomes available to you!
Descartes
Ever heard of horses ‘pushing’ carts???
The philosopher Descartes profoundly proclaimed "I think, therefore I am". In doing so he put the horse before the cart. There was a fundamental flaw in his philosophy. You see, consciousness is independant of thought! But where there is no consciousness there will be no thought. This statement is more accurate by saying "I am, therefore I think"!
Similarly there has been a common misconception that your body houses your soul. It is in fact the other way round! The physical plane is the densest and therefore the last plane of manifestation. Before anything comes into physical existence it first passes through the spiritual, mental and emotional planes.
You Can Heal Yourself From Unconscious Patterns
Illness and dis-ease are no different. What exactly do we mean by that? Any illness or disease starts as an imbalance in one or more of the subtle bodies mentioned above. This imbalance is caused by conscious or
unconscious negative patterns,
belief's or attitudes. If this pattern is held in place long enough it will manifest in your body as some form of illness or dis-ease.
If you are unconscious about the patterns you hold in place there is no way of telling what you’re setting in motion to manifest in the physical body. Overcoming this lack of conscious awareness will create the internal space where you can heal yourself. Louise L Hays’ book "You Can Heal Your Life" describes in detail which thoughts and emotions lead to which illnesses. She also offers solutions through positive affirmations that address the cause that led to the physical manifestation of that illness.
Through meditation you become far more conscious of the energy you direct to different thoughts and emotions. The various agendas and payoffs behind these thoughts and emotions will become more clear as well. The clearer you become, the more you will be in a position to free up the energy used to crystalize these patterns. You can heal yourself through meditation. By freeing up your energy you can consciously direct it to the thoughts and emotions that serve you.
Tune yourself to a Higher Vibration.
Everything that is vibrates at a frequency, the higher the vibration, the less physical that thing is. Even your thoughts and emotions vibrate at different frequencies. When you bring an object with a lower vibration into the proximity of something with a higher vibration, the object vibrating at a higher frequency meets the lower frequency half way and draws the lower frequency up. Thus the two objects both have a higher vibration.
To give you an example: a tuning fork, for those of you who don’t know, is an object used in
music
that is set to vibrate at a specific frequency, for example the frequency that produces the ‘A’ note. When you tap the fork on hard surface, it will vibrate and produce the desired sound, that of the ‘A’ note. If you bring the tuning fork close to a guitar, the ‘A’ string on the guitar will start to vibrate. Initially, the volume of the tuning fork will drop as the ‘A’ string starts to vibrate. However, as the string increases in frequency so too will the volume of both the string and the tuning fork because of the synergy. Resulting in a higher vibration of both as they harmonize.
Vibration and Healing
Viruses, bacteria and other physical bugs that lead to illness and dis-ease vibrate at a lower frequency. If you raise your frequency to a higher vibration you can heal yourself because these foreign contaminants cannot exist in your body. Keep your frequency at a higher vibration and you will stay in good health. In fact there is a whole field dedicated to vibrational healing. There are many
benefits of meditation,
one of which is to refine your resonance. By keeping a higher vibration you are ensuring good health.
What makes meditation so powerful is in its simplicity. The various meditation techniques will definitely impact on your energy levels. With more energy at your disposal, increased levels of consciousness and a higher vibration you can heal yourself. And you can do it all with meditation.
