Arasini Apprenticeship Healing Program
Acknowledgement from Carol
Here are
a few of my thoughts about what I have received and learned from being
on the Energy Balancing Team: Being on the team has become how I live.
It is such an integral part of my life I cannot even think of my life
without thinking of the work we do. My work on the Healing Team has been
my evolution over many years. This work began when I went various
locations to help
clients, but
I know it has been to help me. Being on the Team has made
me a better therapist and friend. I have learned to listen more deeply
to what is present. I listen more deeply not only to the words and the
intonation and inflections, but also to the energy of the words. I
listen to the energy as I perceive it. I listen for flow or stagnation,
for power or force, for smooth rhythm or irregular pulses, for harmony
or dissonance. I have learned to listen with my whole body. I love how
my body will often tell me what is going on with another person by
mimicking a sensation.
I have also learned how to be a healing presence.
I truly feel that I radiate peace and love and healing when I am with
clients. I have learned how to be very still inside even while I may be
chatting on the outside. I have learned to intend healing. The best way
I can describe this is that I have learned to clear my access to Divine
Source so that whatever is needed can come through. I set my intention
to allow that and do my best to hold that focus. Being with the other
people on the team is a whole set of lessons in and of itself.
The other team members are my reflections, my inspirations, my joy, my
support, my fellow travelers. The space of nonjudgment, acceptance,
patience and laughter we hold for each other is in itself a Healing
Presence. I have also learned that much of what I thought mattered,
doesn’t really matter. I have learned that I can block the healing (the
energy of Love and Light) by trying to label something, be it to give it
a name (i.e., disease label) or to give it a value (good or bad).
Being
on the Team has changed my life. Every time I am with a client,
either for energy balancing or for counseling, I know I am being
changed. I am being infused with more Love and more Light and I am given
the opportunity to accept more of Who I Am. It has also taught me that
this process is occurring all of the time, everywhere, not just at
“work.” There’s so much more, but we were asked for a few paragraphs
and this is what came for now. I am eternally and forever grateful for
the opportunity to be on the Energy Balancing Team.
With gratitude, Carol
