Connections magazine asked contributors for their definition of healing in one short paragraph.
Here is my contribution:
Personally, I believe we are complex multi-dimensional energy beings on a human journey of form and matter, evolving and waking up to our true nature as conscious beings created in love. We come here as physical, emotional, social, sexual and spiritual beings. Healing means “to make whole” and does not only mean “getting better” in the physical sense. We are all in a process of refinement and transformation of consciousness. C.G.Jung said that he had never had a client “ who was not at root, suffering from a loss of soul”. He was right. I trust that when matters of soul are deeply addressed and a person is motivated to connect consciously to their Essential Self that this is the deepest healing one can help someone move towards. The physical dies. We need to find a connection to that which never dies. This enables us to live fully and to die well. When we try to understand the inexplicable; the concepts of Grace and Miracles, we realise that healing is incomprehensible. See the stories of Anita Moorjani and Eben Alexander and you will get a sense of what I mean. I believe we cannot define something that is so complex that it defies limitation.
