Healing

Healing is all about becoming whole - about allowing ourselves to be connected to and in love with and accepting all of the different parts of ourselves, to stop judging ourselves as good or bad and so become the perfect and complete person which in fact we already are but have often forgotten that we are. Healing is about realizing the absolute perfection of everything and the fact that there are "no mistakes" in this perfection.

Healing can and does take place on many levels: mental, emotional, physical and spiritual. There is never an illness, either physical or psychological, which cannot be helped and which doesn't have its roots within us. Illness is not something that "comes to us" from outside but rather, something which is born inside of us and therefore we can deal with inside of us, we only need the willingness and the right tools to do so.

During a healing session with Xenia, we work on physical blocks, pain or illness and begin to identify, clear and heal the deeper issues that have caused the imbalances that lead to them. There is nothing that cannot be helped or healed. Depending on how serious the problem is, healing can take from one session to a couple of sessions or to a series of sessions or even sometimes an intensive of 20 hours ( in conjunction with Petrene Soames, Xenia's teacher ) for more serious problems. Other therapies such as Rebirthing, Counseling and Regression ( in conjunction with Petrene Soames ) are recommended where needed.

Physical illness can be and is many things: fear, anger, sadness, physical, mental and/or emotional imbalance, ignorance and pain. We restore balance and bring healing by bringing understanding and awareness and by bringing to ourselves the positive feelings we have so been yearning for. We also work directly on the physical body in order to alleviate any pain, tightness, weight or imbalance there. Healing is a combination of all these things. It is a therapy which helps our body and soul can go back to and become closer to it's pure, clear and natural state - which is indeed perfect health.

Here is what Petrene Soames has to say about healing:

An illness is often a lack of awareness of what is actually going on in your life. It's being out of control, out of touch with your physical body, and with your higher self. A physical illness is just a manifestation of a much greater situation. Healing is getting back in touch with you, your body, your emotions, your needs and your life.

When people are ready to let go of illness and imbalance, they are ready to be healed. But sometimes people tend to hold on to illness because it becomes almost like a friend. When it's gone, there is an empty space in their life, no matter how unpleasant that illness was. Each person is different and has individual needs. The healing may take place in as little as one or two sessions; for some, over a few weeks, even months. But the results are often outstanding."

A Healing session can help all sorts of illnesses and pain - from migraines, to back-ache, to pulled muscles and painful joints right through to very serious illnesses such as arthritis and cancer. Of course the more serious an illnesses is, the more deeply and totally we need to re-look at our whole self and life-style. Healing in these cases involves being deeply committed to working with all of our emotional as well as mental issues, but the amazing news is that it works! Countless people have done it - why not you? A Healing session is of course not a substitute for medical attention but rather a very good and effective complementary treatment which will help and boost any medical or other methods you may be using.

During the Healing session the client is fully clothed at all times - not including shoes, watch and any jewelry, which need to be removed - and either sitting comfortably in a chair or lying on a Healing table. The session usually begins with the opening and clearing of the basic energy centers or charkas as they are called in the East. Xenia puts her hands on these basic areas - top of the head, forehead, throat, upper chest, stomach and belly - focusing pure high and clear energy into them and so facilitating them back into their flowing and open and clear state. The client is relaxing and breathing and may at times be directed to visualize a color or picture - often colors and pictures "come" to the client and we work with them - or have the strong thought "I am letting go easily of everything I no longer need".

"The healing is a combination of both therapist and client, the energy we are talking about is Universal and resides around us and within us and very simply is the stuff we and the Universe are made of. There is no need for any "attunements" or anything of the sort as this energy is our birthright. It is a fact that this energy flow when unimpeded IS pure health and JOY and so this is what we are facilitating. The client and their "open-ness" and willingness to participate is of the utmost importance and the more open one is to receiving the more one receives, though of course anyone who comes to me for a session is at least open to some degree and so will get things out of the session without a doubt. I have worked for years on myself to clear out blocks in this Universal flow within me and so I can say that the energy I am using is so very close to it's highest and clearest and purest and most healing form. It simply IS and it simply works."

The energy being focused and used during a healing session with Xenia is very open, strong, high, finely tuned and Universal. We are all beings made up of energy and we can focus, channel and use this energy in any way we wish. The clearer we are energetically and on all levels, the stronger, finer and more positive this energy that flows through us is and the better a channel we are for Universal Energy - which in reality we could say is nothing more or less, is the same as us in a perfectly open and healed form. Xenia has personally done a lot of work over many years to fine tune, balance and heal her whole self and healing sessions with her are a cut above average in many many ways. You can read more about what people are saying about their experience with Xenia on the testimonials page.

Often during a Healing session, problem areas not already identified are identified, as Xenia feels the energy of the client and where blocks are and during the session we focus on these problem or painful areas on the body. The therapist uses their hands to focus energy onto and into physical areas in the body which are in pain or blocked. Pain, blocks and physical problems are simply areas where for various reasons there is less than perfect energy flow. These areas can feel and are variously described as "painful", "heavy", "tight", "frozen" and more. When flow is restored in this way, so too are our own bodies' self-healing capabilities and so feelings of wellness and well-being are restored.

We may already be aware of various mental blocks before we start working but also often during a session we can identify any further issues that need looking at through related discussion and any images and feelings which come up.

When we identify a negative mental block from the past which has led to negative consequences and has kept being a negative pattern in our lives, we can clear it using a specific visualization technique. By bringing positive mental energy, light and healing to that place in ourselves we heal forever something that until now may have caused and may still be causing great problems in our lives. Negative mental imprints from the past leave their mark on us and on our lives and help to create our present and future as our mind will continue to re-create these negative experiences even though we may no longer want them in our lives. This visualization technique is an amazingly easy and simple way to heal negative mental patterns and beliefs and best of all it really works! And it is important to realize that you don't have to actually "see" anything for visualization to work, it is enough to have your mind focused on and to "think" the thoughts.

At the end of the session, using a very simple technique, we can bring into balance the left with the right side of the body, the masculine with the feminine, the creative with the practical, the intuitive with the logical. This is important as we are all made up of both male and female energies and when these parts of us are out of alignment, problems manifest on all levels of our lives. Relationships, both work related and personal, creativity and physical well-being among other things are all negatively affected by lack of harmony between right and left, male and female within us.

An obvious example of how this works is to look at the way relationships between men and women are being played out in the world today - a world were clearly and generally the feminine is undervalued, misunderstood and feared. (Often the same is happening to the male as well, though in different ways). This is a situation that is clearly not helping us all to move forward in harmony and peace. Are we satisfied with the level of communication we have achieved in our lives with our partners and mates, with the "other" sex? What do we need to do in order to go to the next level? By bringing into balance these parts in ourselves we are indeed "putting the world in order", what we start to understand, value and appreciate and love in ourselves we become able to understand, value, appreciate and love in others and as we put ourselves in order we put the world in order.

As a direct result of this work with ourselves the outside world is changed, everything is changed; the nature of our relationships and the emotional health of our relationships is enriched and so is the quality of people that we draw to ourselves. We create the world, our lives, from the inside out and so any inner work we do has far reaching effects on all aspects of our reality. As of course any work we do on outer aspects of our lives affects our inner lives. Actually, anything and everything positive which we do creates a never-ending positive upward spiral which if given enough fuel by us, ( energy, emotion, thought, commitment, work ) will continue onwards and upwards forever, without end. This is brilliant news to say the least! And it is not hard work!

And for more about how healing and self-healing works, you can read "The Essence of Self-Healing: How to bring health and happiness into your life" by Petrene Soames.

Here is an excerpt from "The Essence of Self-Healing":

You may think that healing a headache is quite different than healing cancer or heart disease. This is true but only in the sense that you will need to be more committed to be well, more committed to refusing to accept the reality in which you find yourself, and to doing whatever it takes to change that situation. You may have bigger fears to deal with than a person with a headache, but you can still face those fears. You will also need to build your self-belief and set aside the conditioning and a lot of what you have been taught which makes you believe that you are not in control and cannot heal. Start today and give yourself a chance; you probably realize already that you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Miracles, as we call them, will and do happen.
