Healers' Dilemma Healers are often presented with an ethical choice: you are asked to assist in the healing of someone who has not given permission. Many modalities give fixed rules and guidance on this issue. My belief is that I never should "force" healing, yet there are limitless possibilities of allowing it to happen. Modality guidance runs the full rainbow of possibilities between the these two extremes: 1. Never without permission 2. You can send anytime. Usually the position is somewhere in between. This can be from asking permission of God, the persons "higher self," a parent for the child, checking for blocks to accepting healing that the person may wish to remove. Then there is testing using Kinesiology to get past the fears and egos to see if on that level they wish healing.. Here is another method. We are not one uniform consciousness. We have within us many conflicting beliefs. Each is a part of us, one of many "aspects" of who we are. If there were not, it would be simple to make any choices. There would be no internal debate. Is there anyone that does not go though questioning their own choices every day? What is an "ASPECT?" . 1 A position facing a particular direction 2 a (1) : appearance to the eye or mind (2) : a particular appearance of countenance : MIEN b : a particular status or phase in which something appears or may be regarded <studied every aspect of the question> When we ask a person do they wish to be healed, we get back an answer that is often based on one side of them, the fears and ego that are in control. Another part of them may deeply want to be healed! What can we do? For those used to asking questions of the higher self, God, guides, Kinesiology ... ask if there is an aspect of the individual that wishes to be healed. If so, then you have permission to send it though that aspect. If you are not comfortable asking, you can always send Unconditional Love. You can also send healing energy to any aspect of the person that will accept it. You do not need to know what aspect(s) that is. Make the intent that it go to any aspect that accepts the healing. If not accepted the energy can go to anyone else you chose or to heal the planet. Often the people around the Sick person need healing and actually their energy my be contributing to the problems. If you are asking help from a healer for someone else and they say they cannot do it because it is "not allowed" point out the other possibilities and help expand their beliefs.
