Distant Healing

Distant Healing is Healing performed when the patient is not present. It is possible to transmit Healing energies over any distance and this form of Healing can be very effective. The patients may or may not be aware that this Healing has been undertaken for them but may attain much benefit from it coming as it does from the love and concern that their friends and relatives have for them.

Distance healing is any form of healing energy “sent” across time and space that is received and has a healing effect on the recipient. With this type of work, you do not have to be physically present with the healer to receive the healing. It may be done over the phone or at a special time set aside and agreed upon between you and the practitioner.

This type of healing is equally effective as an in person healing because in alternative energy healing and holistic medicine therapies, we are working with the physical, emotional and mental aspects of an individual by accessing the individual’s energy body. The energy body can be accessed easily from anywhere and at any time and does not require you to be physically present with the practitioner.

Energy healing has been practiced for ages in many societies. The advent of long distance communications allowed us to stay in touch with relatives and friends that may live thousands of miles away from us. With this modern freedom, at times we find ourselves in a situation where those persons are sick, recovering in a hospital, or going through a difficult period in their lives, and we can’t be physically present to provide the support we would like to.

If we are considering helping with non-physical energies (bioenergies, chi, prana), we can ask ourselves about distance energy healing.

The Illusion of Time and Space

The archetypal perception that most of us live in in this physical reality is one that is conditional and dual. What does that mean exactly? Well, for most of us, our experience of this physical reality is governed by the perceptions that time and space are real and fixed. We live inside of time and space meaning that our perceptions are locked into this paradigm that things are not only separated by distance, but that time only moves in one direction-forward.

This perception, particularly the perception of time, is one of the things that keeps us firmly rooted in the physical world and yet at the same time may also limit our ability to manifest change and experience instant healings.  Shamanic healers will tell you that time is an “illusion”.

This illusion exists only because we have believed it to be true and serves a good purpose—it keeps us grounded in the physical experience which is right where we need to be to live and go about our daily activities. But at the same time this perception can limits us from a greater understanding and experience of life. The good news is that like all perceptions, this illusion of time and space can be transcended or altered at will with proper practice.

Healing beyond Time and Space

When a healer facilitates a distance healing, he or she is going outside of time and space. She is altering her perception by any number of techniques. In the Theta healing technique for example the practitioner slows her brainwaves to the theta wave which activates what is known in shamanism as the “waking dream” state. She is changing her perception or vantage point to a place where time and space are not fixed, where there is no separation between things and where time flows not only forward but backwards. Where in time she decides to go is dependent only on where she decides to place her awareness.
As spiritual energy is not limited by time and space, remote healing becomes possible. A trained healer can set their intent on someone far away. The healer can be aware of the distant person’s energy. The healer can help the distant person remove blocks and unwanted energies from their system. The healer can also support the distant person in getting their own spiritual energy flowing, so they can heal themselves. Distance healings can be calming and promote the release of stress and are a key part of holistic healing. It can also be revitalizing and help speed up recovery times for physical, mental, emotional and spiritual issues. These and other benefits can all happen from a distance.

Unique Benefits of Distant Healing

Remote healing is especially useful when there are physical or geographic considerations. If you are sick, bedridden, or would rather not leave your home for some reason…distant healing can support the spiritual wellness healing process–without you having to leave the comfort of your own home. Or, if you live far away and transport is an obstacle for some reason…distant healing provides an alternative way to support healing–beyond the limits of location. It is also reassuring to know you can support your loved ones’ healing process, even at a distance.
