Healing Heart & Soul

By Dr. Michael Mirdad

The field of Holistic Healing (like all other arts and sciences) is currently taking a quantum leap forward. Now, more than ever, humanity is gaining a deeper insight and perspective on the delicate and intricate relationship between body, emotions, mind and soul (heart).

In a healthy person the energy and experience of that soul is one of flow, rhythm, life, love, and trust. In an unhealthy person, or anyone who is in an unhealthy (traumatic) environment, the flow stops; the rhythm becomes erratic; life and love become frozen; and trust becomes limited and conditional. This is not the way your life was meant to be. Yes, we have free will, but healing is when you choose (Divine) Order over chaos.

One could say that this restoration is also known as a "Miracle". The divinely inspired book called "A Course in Miracles" refers to this miraculous healing process as a shift in perception or consciousness - but at the deepest level of the soul. When this healing occurs, through prayerful healing processes, the effects can and will flow down the manifestation ladder until it is perceptible in the outer world. In other words, true healing and miracles must take place in the heart and soul before it really reaches the body.

This leads us to a deeper understanding as to why some of our attempts to heal do not last. We may have experienced a shift in the body or even an "emotional release," but the healing is not real (i.e., permanent) unless you have healed at the heart and soul level - the source of the problem.

In the various fields of health, healing, psychotherapy, bodywork, medicine, and so forth, each healer believes their modality is effective in the healing process. However, dis-ease and trauma are never experienced nor stored at only one level. For example, a trauma to the body can affect the emotional self just as a psychological trauma can affect the body.

Stated simply, life and love, or trauma and fear can be experienced on four primary levels: heart (soul), mind, feelings, and body. Again, a trauma to any one level (or more) can affect the others. Although a trauma (or disease) can be experienced at any of these levels, it is in the heart and soul that the patterns, core-issues, and personal beliefs are stored, and can attract the traumas to any other primary level of experience. That's right! An emotional crisis, a car accident, and even a physical disease are all birthed from the level of the soul. If we change the beliefs and patterns in the heart and soul, then we give birth to new opportunities in all parts of our life and being.

Having said that then, what is the value of any healing art other than soul-level healing? The answer is two-fold: First, the various healing arts can act as a support system to the soul-level healing process. Second, the various modalities of herbs, aromas, bodywork, counseling, energy-work, and so forth can act as triggers for soul-level healing. For example, if a river is restricted, you can increase the water-flow to eventually wash away the blockage. Yet if you also deal with the debris at its own level, you will increase the chances of clearing the river sooner. So in the end, soul-level healing is a necessity, while any other form of healing is merely a wise addition.

There are at least two ways of accessing and triggering a soul-level healing. One way is to directly connect with the soul and its core memory (i.e., Akashic record). This, of course, is not a healing method that everyone is familiar with. However, the second approach is one that is becoming more and more accessible for all. This method is that of holistic healing. The term holistic (i.e., whole-istic), in relation to healing, is the same as holographic (whole-ographic) in relation to quantum science. Both fields are exploring the theory that all things are interconnected - that the whole can also be accessed in any part. With this in mind, even the heart and soul can be accessed through their microcosmic representation in any other part of our being. This means that some levels of the heart and soul can be accessed through any supportive healing method if the healer and client are open enough to truly treat it holistically. However, the healer needs to see their technique as a means to the soul-level issue rather than as an end.

A trauma can be stored at diverse levels of consciousness such as in the physical body, the energy body or the emotional body. Therefore, working with these various bodies can be a means of triggering a healing deep enough to reach the heart and soul. To understand this, we need to see everything as energy and vibration. If trauma holds a certain vibration, that energy can end up stored or lodged in any of the levels of our being. Thus, an intuitive healer with effective techniques can access and release these blockages. When this is done, it can stir a reaction in all other levels of the being. For example, when a certain trauma is released by triggering a muscle, it can sometimes be followed by an energy release such as uncontrollable shaking.

The truth is these blocks can be experienced and/or stored in the physical body, the energy body, the emotional body, the mental body, and/or the soul. As healers develop their higher senses, and the clients develop a deeper commitment to healing, techniques will more often be utilized wherein the blocks are more accurately found and efficiently released.

As already stated, this is a mutual process between healer and client. But for this to become a standard practice, the healers themselves must be willing to heal from the heart. Implementation will increase and give depth to holistic insights about the clients and also provide information on what is needed to attain the highest possible healing. This process also provides a space of safety and unconditional love, which acts as the perfect environment for healing, thus assisting in the release of the old patterns and traumatic experiences.
