INTRODUCTION

You Can Live Pain-

Free!

Beneath your pain, there i



a fully functioning, healthycomfortable body. Our goa

with this book is to help youallow that reality to shinethrough. To that end, we offe

our insights into the causes opain, as well as suggestionregarding numerous naturaprescriptions and spirituasolutions to heal it. We

recommend herbal remediebecause plants are God’medicine, found in nature and

used for centuries by intuitive



indigenous healers.Within these pages, we

also mention the concept othe ego, which is anunderlying cause of pain. In a

spiritual sense, the ego iunlike the word egotistical, soust erase those association

for a moment. Instead, thinkof the expression “an ange

on one shoulder and a devion the other.” There are twovoices within each of us: one

that uplifts us (the angels)



and one that attracts fear (theego). The ego voice says

You’re not good enoughYou’ll never be well, You

should give up, and Nobody

loves you. However, these arecomplete and utter lies! Youangels love you more thanyou know, and their onlydesire is to watch you

succeed.The important thing toremember is how to tell the

difference between what you



ego is saying and what theangels are saying. If you

receive a message throughthoughts, visions, feelings, owords that is uplifting and

positive, you can be assuredthat it’s coming from youangels. If a message makesyou feel low or selfconscious, or convinces you

not to take the next step, it’likely from your ego.Everybody has angels; they

are healing allies tha



surround and support you aevery moment. You don’

need to be religious or saintlyeveryone has guardian

angels around them at al

times. It doesn’t even mattewhether you believe inangels, because they are parof our physiology. They areas vital and natural as ou

lungs, brain, or heart.Your angels are with youright now, hoping to infuse

your body with the comfor



that it needs. You might bewondering, Then why haven’

they already healed me? It iimportant to know that angelare bound by the Law of Free

Will. This Universal Lawstates that neither they noGod can intervene in your lifewithout your exprespermission. You must firs

ask for help; then miraclescan occur. When you speakfrom your heart, your loving

angels will hear every word.



In the following chapterswe offer a deepeunderstanding of what pain is

its origins, the role it plays inyour body, and how it affectand is affected by you

emotions, including stressWe provide suggestions fonot only treating you

symptoms but also creatingtrue wellness throughnutrition, exercise, herbs and



supplements, detoxing, andhonoring your sensitivity

There is a simple referenceguide at the end of this bookthat lists some of the mos

common locations for pain inthe body; its possibleenergetic causes; and specifichealing recommendationsincluding therapies

supplements, prayers, andaffirmations. You may eitheread this book straigh

through or allow you



intuition to guide youourney, choosing whicheve

topics are most relevant foyou at a particular time.

Remember that with any

health issue, it’s best to alsoseek proper medical advice. Iyou’ve had chronicundiagnosed pain, make anappointment to see a qualified

health professional; adiagnosis may help you inyour quest for comfort

Consult a healthcare



professional before alteringmedications or introducing

new things into your routinesuch as exercise or nutritionasupplements. Particula

remedies will not beappropriate for everyone, soif you have pre-existingconditions or are currently ona treatment regimen, seek

advice to be certain that whayou’re guided to take will nointeract with your medication

or aggravate your symptoms.



We must use the safesapproaches to our health and

above all, do no harm. Pleasebe sensible and informed asyou explore the many

approaches to alleviatingpain.

Enjoy your journey to acompletely comfortable andpain-free life.

— Doreen and Rober









CHAPTER ONE

THE ORIGINS OFPAIN



If you let it, pain can ruinyour life.

Now, read that sentenceagain…the key words are i

ou let it.

Your future is in youhands. Don’t give up the fighust yet. In this book you wil

find numerous ways to heafrom physical ailments. The

pain that might have onceheld you back is quivering inits boots. It knows that here

you will gain the tool



necessary to change your lifeYou can overcome the

obstacle of pain and throw ofthe shackles that werebinding you.

You might have lost youfocus while trying to read thisbook, or become distractedwhen you tried to addresyour discomfort, because

your ego is terrified by thepossibility of relief. Your egodistracts you, because if you

were healed, you would be in



the perfect place to completeyour life purpose. Suffering

limits your feelings of joywhich then causes youpurpose in life to elude you

However, as soon as thecloud of pain is lifted, theroad ahead is crystal clearThis allows you to easily seeyour true calling.

Every thought you have ihelping to shape your realityand your experiences. So by

focusing their thought



around pain, some peopleattract others who also suffer

otice who is in your circleof friends. Do you have highenergy, uplifting people in

your life? Or are yousurrounded only by otherwho are struggling, limitedand dark in their outlook?The point of this exercise

isn’t to judge or criticizeourselves, but rather toidentify aspects we might like

to change. Just as you had the



power to attract these peopleyou have the power to attrac

happy, healthy friends, too.The limitation of pain

convinces you that you’re

trapped. It tells you thaprogress will be difficult andthat you can’t move forwardIf you listen to that voicethen you will lose inspiration

motivation, and creativity—three things that are essentiafor getting out and making a

difference in the world.



You’re here to do muchmore than merely exist. It i

natural to contemplate whyyou are here at this time. Thereason is because your sou

carries with it Divine wisdomthat’s desperately needed onEarth right now. On somelevel you know this statemento be true. Imagine what you

life would be like if you felinspired every momentImagine what it would look

like if you followed through



on all of your heart’s desiresThis is what living pain-free

is like.So now let’s remove the

old energy of pain and ushe

in your incredible future!

What Is Pain?

Pain is a sign tha

something is unbalanced in



your body. Taking antiinflammatories and analgesic

medications only masks thediscomfort, without actuallyaddressing the cause. Rathe

than covering up themessages of your body, try todecipher what it’s saying.

The true cause of your hurmay be physical, emotional

or energetic. Regardless owhat the reason may be, donot judge yourself or you

experiences—doing so would



only add to your sufferingLook at your situation

objectively. Ask yourselfWhen did the pain begin?

What else was going on

during that time in my life?Were there other stressors or

traumas? You may besurprised to find that youbody is reflecting something

that is or was occurring inyour life.When new patients come

to see me (Robert) in my



naturopathic practice, theymay be hoping that I wil

prescribe something to easetheir pain. While I alwaysoffer support in some fashion

it is not necessarily in theway they expect. There is nopoint in taking something tomask your symptomsbecause the underlying issue

is still there. As soon as youstop the medication, youtroubles will return. This is

why, whenever I meet people



in my practice for the firstime, we always sit and talk

about what else is or wahappening in their lives.

One patient realized tha

her suffering began the sametime her relationship with hehusband got rocky. Anytimeshe and her partner arguedher discomfort increased

Until that point, she hadnever connected the dots. Hebody was using physical pain

to mask her emotional pain so



that she wouldn’t have to faceher feelings! Not surprisingly

she had a lot of old emotionstored up and hidden awayAs she became comfortable

releasing them, her painbegan to lessen until icompletely left her bodymind, and spirit. Now wouldtaking painkillers have solved

a problem like that? Nolikely!Once you understand

where your pain originates



you must look at its severityand frequency. Ask yourself:

When does the

discomfort become

worse?

What else is

happening at thosetimes—am I more

stressed?

Did I just spend time

with someone, or ea

or drink something?



When does the pain

ease, and when do

feel at my best?

What activities

emotions, orelationships am

experiencing at these

times?

The answers to these

questions contain vital clueto your path to wellness. Byrecognizing the actions tha



bring you comfort, you cancommit yourself to doing

them more frequently. On theother hand, when you realizewhat increases your suffering

you can choose to separateyourself from thosesituations.

The Illusion of Pain





However, you musremember that the way God

has created you is Divinelyperfect. God, being pure lovewould not have created pain

Your discomfort is not aspiritual test, but a product othe ego, which is the oppositeof God. To buy into it is togive energy to something

that’s not from our Creator.Look past the illusion osuffering and instead view

your body for what it is in



truth. Pain is using your bodyfor its home; serve it an

eviction notice and tell it thait’s no longer welcome inyour sacred temple. Remove

the blocks that are dimmingyour light. Such obstructionson your path to pure healthmay include chemicals andtoxins in foods and

beverages, negative thoughpatterns, low-energyenvironments, poor diet, lack

of exercise, and dis-ease.



Note that we distinguishdis-ease from disease. When

you say “I have a disease,” iis a label that continuallyaffirms poor health. On the

other hand, a state of dis-easeis simply saying that youaren’t in your best conditionin this moment and that youneed to restore a sense o

balance.It is important to avoidsaying things like “my sore

back…” “my pain…” and



“everything always hurts.”With phrasing such as this

you claim ownership of thecondition—do you reallywant it to be your pain?

When you release sufferingfrom your vocabulary, youcan also choose to exchangeit for love, health, and peaceThe universe is alway

listening to you and attractingto you what you give out, andnegative statements like these

send your energy out to



perpetuate your current state.To make things easier

imagine that you have a geniewith you at every momentlistening to every thought and

every feeling that you have. Iwants to grant your wishesand it thinks that you wanmore of whatever it is thayou focus on. Help the genie

by always “asking” for whayou want, rather than keepingyour attention on what you

don’t.



Put your energy to its besuse by affirming the positive

Say things like “My back iflexible and strong,” “Mybody is comfortable,” and “

feel better every day as continue to heal,” even if youdon’t fully believe it at thetime you say it. As long ayou’re willing to have

patience with the processsuch statements will helpbring your attention to, and

eventually bring about, the



positive condition that youare affirming.

During our personameditations, we asked theangels how willing someone

needed to be in order to heafrom discomfort. On a scaleranging from 0 to 10, with 10being the most willing, theangels said they only needed

a 1. Even the slightest hint owillingness is enough for theangels to create positive

changes in your life. So



despite what the rationamind may be saying, the only

thing you have to lose is pain

ifferent Types of

ain

There are generally threedifferent areas of physicapain that we can experience



muscle, nerve, and bone.

— Muscle aches are themost common, as well as themost generalized. It can often

be difficult to distinguish theexact area that hurts the mostYou might have a sore neckor back, but there isn’t onespecific spot you can really

pinpoint. Instead, a wholearea may feel affected, like aband across your back, or the

pain may spread. An ache



tends to occur when a muscleis tense, which makes blood

flow more difficult. As themuscle lacks blood, it beginto send the signal of pain.

— Nerves are responsiblefor all movements that occuin your body. The brain sendsignals along them to you

muscles so that you can moveappropriately. Occasionally anerve becomes trapped

between tense muscles; then



as you move, it gets pinchedwhich triggers sharp, sudden

and often severe pain—it caneven take your breath away!

The signal can run through

the entire length of a pinchednerve. Sciatica, which affectthe nerve that extends fromthe lower back and downeach leg, is one of the mos

common examples. So whileyou may have discomforrunning down your leg, fo

instance, the actua



impingement may be in youlower back. With nerve pain

the specific path can usuallybe pinpointed, and you canshow a health practitione

exactly where the discomforstarts and where it extends.

— Bone pain is a deeppain. It doesn’t change with

muscle movements. It shouldalways be taken seriously, ait may indicate fracture

infection, or cancer. Please



have bone pain investigatedby a qualified medica

professional.

Common Causes of

ain

It is necessary toacknowledge the source oyour pain in order to



effectively heal it. Beware otreatments that just address

symptoms superficiallywithout getting to the root othings. Following those

methods will necessitaterepeating the process againand again, because the rearepair work has not beendone. Know that with true

healing, once the issue iresolved, the pain leaves youbody and cannot return.

That being said, it may



take some time for you toachieve true well-being

Don’t feel limited to anyparticular remedy; you maywork with natural as well a

conventional methods, as youfeel guided to do so. Sometherapists suggest that foevery year you’ve had anissue, it will take one month

to treat it. So according to thitheory, if you’ve had backpain for five years, it may

take up to five months to



clear it fully. The more openand willing you are to let go

of your suffering, the faster ican leave. You’ll attain amuch healing as you’re

willing to receive.The following are the mos

common reasons why youmay be in pain.

Wear and Tear



Over time, things cansimply wear out. This is true

for all objects, including youbody and its joints. If youwere highly active in you

youth or played rough sportlike football, rugbymotocross, or skiing, youoints may have taken quite a

beating. This can lead to

arthritis and stiffness later inlife. Ingesting nourishing oilssuch as flaxseed, will help

keep those joints wel



lubricated.You don’t have to focus on

the negative in the situationhere. If you played sportsyou likely enjoyed them a

great deal. Bring youattention to the happiness thathese activities gave yourather than what the futuremay or may not hold. You

can take good care of yourselnow, and set yourself up for along and comfortable life.



Aging

Age is a naturaprogression of life. Many

people say that it is simplyfact that as we get older, weexperience more pain.

Let’s examine that beliefor a moment. What comes

first: the discomfort or theself-fulfilling prophecy?Perhaps what creates the pain

is the constant affirmation



that it is inevitable. This is agreat insight—if your brain

has the ability to create asituation, then it also holdthe key to its alleviation! I

your mind can create it, youmind can change it. Focus onbeing a youthful spirit, andyour body will follow suit.

Weight



Your body is created with aDivine balance, a delicate

structure that has a built-inoptimal weight. If you carryextra pounds, it puts strain on

your muscles and joints. Imakes your heart work hardein order to push blood arounda larger body. Over timeyour spine can start to

compress as your coremuscles lose strength. Iyou’re overweight, losing

some weight can drastically



decrease your discomfortEvery extra pound that you

carry is an extra pound opain your body must manage.

There are many reasons a

person might be overweightincluding poor diet, stress, ohormonal imbalance:

— Diet: You can do fa

more damage to your bodywith the food you consumethan can be counteracted by

any amount of exercise. You



can work out for over anhour, then undo all that good

work in a matter of minutesHigh-calorie, low-nutrienfoods are easily accessible

and often contain artificiapreservatives and sweetenersthat actually inhibit weighloss. Also, be wary of anyfood touted as “diet” o

sugar-free, because many othese items contain additivethat have been linked to

cancers and other health



complaints. When youremove them from your life

you will immediately noticeimprovement in your comforlevel.

— Stress: When you areunder stress, it triggers youbody to release the hormonecortisol. This hormone

increases your appetite andalso attracts fluid and bulkyou up. Its main role is to

help your body cope with



whatever burden you areunder. It is wonderfully

useful in small dosesHowever, if you experiencelong-term stress, then you

may have too much cortisofloating around in yousystem.

— Hormones: If you

hormones are unbalancedthen you may becomefatigued and lethargic. You

might lose motivation to do



the activities that oncebrought you joy. You know

the things that can help youbut instead you procrastinateand delay your getting better

Fluctuating hormone levelmay cause you to feel goodone day and depressed thenext.

If you suspect that you

hormones are unbalancedplease get examined by aqualified health-care

professional. You may



accidentally do more harmthan good if you try to create

a treatment plan based on aself-diagnosis. Accepsupport from someone who i

trained in what to do.

Food

Dietary factors play a

critical role in your health



apart from your weight. Somefoods trigger immune

responses that can cause youphysical discomfort. It is alsoimportant to note that you

body is happiest in analkaline state. In thisituation, your cells functionwell and there is not muchinflammation. However

some foods are consideredmore acidic than others, andthey disrupt the balance in

your body. (We discuss how



to maintain an alkaline dietas well as how to improve

your overall nutrition intakein Chapter 5.)

Lack of Exercise

Your ego might tell youthat working out will onlymake your pain worse, bu

the truth is that avoiding



activity actually delays youimprovement. Regula

exercise helps loosen tighmuscles, lubricate your jointsand regulate you

metabolism. (In Chapter 7we’ll go over differenexercises and ways to starincorporating them into youlife.)

If you are sedentary, or iyou are sitting for most of theday, your pelvis can start to

tilt. As your body tries to



adjust for this misalignmentyour back is put under more

strain. Then, in an effort toease your aching back, youmight avoid too much

movement. However, if youhad continually done carefustretching and gentleactivities, your pelvis couldhave corrected itself earlier.

If you feel that your heighhas decreased, it may bebecause your spine i

compressed. If thi



degradation is due to areduction in bone density

then there may not beanything you can do about itBut if it was a recent change

you can use regulamovement and stretching toreadjust your body. A gentleyoga or beginners’ Pilatesclass can have wonderfu

curative effects. Having astrong and sturdy core wilgive you a long spine and

comfortable back.



iving with Pain

There are now more peoplethan ever living with chronic

pain. This is just one of themany reasons we felt guidedto write this book. So manypeople are waking each dayto a life of suffering. As we

share with you ouknowledge, the messagefrom the angels, and othe

people’s firsthand



experiences in this bookknow that you can hea

through this and live a trulypain-free life.

According to the

Australian Bureau oStatistics, there were about 11million Australians aged 15years and older whoexperienced pain within the

last four weeks prior to beingsurveyed. Approximately onein ten Australians reported

feeling severe to very severe



pain.Likewise, a report from the

Institute of Medicine foundthat at least 100 millionAmericans suffer from

serious chronic pain everyyear. Some would considethis number conservative, ait does not take children intoaccount, nor acute pain. The

cost of this suffering in losproductivity and medical billequates to $560 billion to

$635 billion per year.



One in five Americanadults says that pain

interrupts their sleep patternsIt is easy to see howchallenging it is to go to sleep

if you’re uncomfortable. Byeasing your burden, youreceive the rest that you needOn a physical level, sleep isyour body’s time to repai

and recharge; without properest, you cannot heal fullyand completely. On an

emotional level, it is essentia



because it is when you gointo your dreamtime, a space

where you connect with youangels and your subconscioumind.

Why does it seem thathere are so many morepeople living with chronicpain now than in the past?Along with the increases in

population, the proportion opeople suffering has alsorisen. Perhaps it’s due to the

extra pressure and stress tha



comes with our modernworld. For instance, a

common source of worry ithat as the years go by, thingsbecome more expensive

Perhaps we hold on to thelimiting belief that we wilcontinue to earn the sameamount as last year, so howwould we expect to be able to

support ourselves with theadded expenses? We musrelease limitations such a

this, and allow the universe to



provide for all our earthlyneeds. It is at this point o

surrendering that we are ableto receive. Until then, oubusy hands are in the way and

the angels patiently observeuntil we give them the spaceto intervene.

Today so many are put intohigh-pressure situations. They

constantly strive to pleaseothers while being asked tomeet unrealistic demands

These expectations are no



limited to the workplaceeither. Society bombards us

with images of how weshould look, what we need tobuy and wear, and where we

are meant to be. If we fall fothese traps, we succumb tothe feelings of failure

obody deserves to feel thiway! Empower yourself by

listening to the inner voice oyour angels that encourageand supports you. This

process of upliftment wil



come to you when you’reready. Now is the time!



CHAPTER TWO

MIND OVER PAIN

Pain is, essentially, a

natural occurrence and mean



to be used as a warning signFor example, if you touched a

hot stove, your body wouldregister the sensation of heaand danger, and quickly pul

away. Without this instinctiveresponse, you could causeyourself harm. Problemsarise, however, when the“pain switch” gets stuck on

and never seems to turn offChronic discomfort is a signof an unhappy body.

It is important to



understand that living a painfree life means more than

continually popping pills tomask your ailmentsUnderneath this illusion o

suffering is a healthycomfortable body. For adeeper healing, you musraise your vibration and lifyour energy to meet the true

vision of yourself. Let’s recalwhat that feels like:

Bring your mind back to a



time when you felt that there

was comfort and ease in

every aspect of your lifeerhaps this was during a

wonderful vacation that you

spent with loved ones. Let goof your worries for now an

allow your body to relax

There is no stress, anger, o

confrontation in this moment

eel how your life isbalanced, harmonious, an

eaceful. Release your

expectations; you don’t nee



to tell God how He shoul

heal you. Let events unfold as

they will. Trust that God hasthe perfect journey planne

or you and that you have

always been Divinelyrotected.

Now let’s take a closelook at how pain is triggered

and how we can use ouminds to overcome it.



The Pathway of Pain

Your body receivemessages of discomfort by

picking up on reactionsoccurring in your systemthen sending the signal o“pain” to the brain. Firstnerve receptors ge

information and put out anelectrical impulse with themessage. The impulse travel

through nerves, to the spina



cord, then up to your brainYour thalamus sends it to

different parts of your brainto interpret the signal anddecides what area should

respond first. The result wilbe a physical response, athought process, or anemotional reaction.

The brain influences you

perception of pain. I (Robertlose all signs of bravery whenshown a needle. If I require a

blood test, I can’t bear the



thought of watching it—syringes, needles, and blood

are not a good combinationfor me. So I always, withouexception, look away, and

most of the time I feel verylittle during the procedure. did notice, though, that evenafter a test is complete, could still make the area hurt

If I look at the bandage andthink about what happened, will instantly feel a sharp

pricking sensation. However



as soon as I look away, thefeeling eases.

When I meditated on thisintriguing phenomenon, myinner guidance told me tha

the brain could both causeand remove pain. If you focuyour attention on somethingthat you enjoy, the feeling osuffering disappears. It leave

your body, mind, and aurabecause it cannot exist withina happy soul. Consider a

headache; chances are, if you



were distracted or engrossedin a friend’s story, the

discomfort would becompletely gone. If the friendthen asked about you

headache, you would noticethe pain reappearing.

The gate control theory opain suggests that the mindhas the capability to shu

down messages signaling thathe body has been hurtBasically, the brain will be

either open or closed to



receiving pain. Think oathletes playing sports who

don’t realize until after thegame that they are injuredThis is because their brain

were too preoccupied withother activities toacknowledge the discomfort.

There are several factorsthat can alter your pain

pathway, including agegender, cultural backgroundpsychological health

upbringing, and you



expectation of pain. Let’examine that last factor more

closely.

The Expectation of

ain

Pain has the ability toconsume your life…but onlyif you allow it. Remembe



that you are on a journey, andyou choose what direction

you want to move every dayThis is why it is important, asyou awake, to expres

gratitude for the manyblessings that have beenbestowed upon you. If youinstead rise each morningwith your mind turned toward

what hurts in your life, theuniverse delivers according toyour expectation.

Deep down, you know you



don’t want this sufferingYour subconscious mind also

knows that focusing on ionly makes it worse. So thinkinstead about the love in you

life and the things that bringyou happiness. There are acouple of simple techniquewe suggest you try in order toshift your focus.

— Begin by writing downa list of activities that fill you

with joy. Take out you



ournal or a notepad and jodown the many things in you

life that you have cause tofeel grateful for. Instantlyyour mood will lift, and you

circumstances will seemimproved. Remember thapain is merely an illusion thathe ego tries to convince youof. Rather than paying

attention to it, listen to yourangels, who will show youways of expressing your true

health.



— For the second methodyou need to get a special box

At the end of each day, cut upa piece of paper and writedown a blessing you

experienced on each tiny slipDescribe what made you feegood, happy interactions youshared with others, and themiracles you saw. Then place

these notes inside the boxWhenever you feel low odistracted by pain, you can

take out one of these slips to



read. You’ll quickly feel thebeauty of your own word

and remember the pureenjoyment you’veexperienced in the gift that i

your life. It is a reminder thaall suffering is temporarythere is always theopportunity to reconnect withpeace.

Just because a belief wa



true for you once in the pastit does not mean that it mus

be true for you now. Whilecertain activities may havecaused you discomfort at one

time, holding on to thosememories causes your bodyto expect to hurt again inthose circumstances eachtime thereafter. This is why i

is important to also remembethe joy that those same eventsbrought to you.

For example, perhaps the



prospect of a long car ridebrings back memories o

being cramped and achy—bucan you remember what youdid at your destination? Did

you take a long trip to the cityand engage in joyful activitiethat made you smile? If youconnect with the positiveinstead of the negative

energy, you’ll find yourelationship with travebeginning to change.

You can use this method



for any activity. Just becauseyou awoke with pain this

morning, it doesn’t need to betrue tomorrow. Don’t allowyour ego to trick you into

believing otherwise; push the“delete” button on all thoseold associations. We’ll keepthe love and embrace the joybut erase the pain.

Your thoughts are like fishswimming down the currenof a stream. They continue

with the momentum of thei



ourney. If you wake in themorning and expect to fee

discomfort, you can redirecthe flow from your stream othoughts to focus upon peace

and ease. However, if youcontinue to stay with negativethoughts surrounding painit’s like trying to change thecourse of a river as it rushe

down a mountain. It’s faeasier to alter in thebeginning compared to when

the momentum has picked up



speed.Create a new expectation

of comfort and easeTomorrow you will wakecompletely comfortable and

rested. The car trip to the citywill be smooth and pain-freeExpect the best situation tooccur…and it will.

Take Time to Shine



When life gets busy, it canbe easy to allow your hobbie

and other interests to slipaway—but that is preciselywhen you most need them

Without connecting to youpassion, you begin to feedepleted and exhausted. Aloy leaves you, your light is

dimmed, and soon enough

pain arrives.You must remember thayou are a beautiful example

of God’s manifested love



When you allow your Divinelight to shine, you let other

know that there’s hope. Youcan inspire people to join youon a happy, healing path

Indeed, the angels are askingyou right now to let your lighshine; it is essential to youwell-being! When you simplytake time to enjoy life, you

body responds with healthand you feel brighter andhappier.

Even if you are incredibly



busy, schedule time for youhobbies and for play. No one

wants to live in a realitywhere you have to workevery waking minute. Sure

your work can be rewardingand fun, but it also helpprovide the tools necessaryfor your enjoyment. Yet somany have forgotten the

second phase of workingThey make the money buforget to spend it on fun and

comfort.



Highly successful peoplekeep this principle in mind

They enjoy what they do andembrace joy in their livesThey find exciting ways to

fulfill their commitmentskeeping their energy andmotivation high.

If you don’t rewardyourself, you begin to resen

your job, and this can be afurther obstacle to youhealing. If you aren’t finding

pleasure in what you do, then



change it. Begin by usingaffirmations to create a reality

that you will enjoyAffirmations are positivestatements in the presen

tense that you repeat toyourself in order to manifest adesired outcome.

To affirm your desires anddreams, try saying:

“My life fulfills mein all ways.”



“Each momen brings me greate

joy.”

“I am open to

receiving all goodthis allows me togive to others more

freely.”“My career is deeply

fulfilling andrewarding.”

“Every day is a new



opportunity toexperience love.”

Repeating affirmations toyourself during your daily

activities will help bring youfocus back to your goalsInitially it may feel like youare lying to yourself. Youego resists these uplifting

words in favor of the negativethoughts it’s familiar withWith continual repetition

your subconscious begins to



believe your affirmationsthen you are in a position to

start taking steps to make thestatements true.

If you spend the majority

of your day at a job, you needto enjoy it. By loving whayou do, you no longer feelike you’re working. Insteadyou’re getting paid to play

and have fun. This approachbrings you the perspectiveyou need on your path toward

comfort and joy.



editations for

asing Your Pain

Since your brain has thepower to bring sensations intoreality, it can also remove

them for good. Use this toyour advantage by trainingyour mind in meditation o

guided imagery. Taking youattention away from pain wilbring you the greatest joy o



all. The following are a fewof our favorites that you

might like to try.

Therapeutic Ocean

Visualize yourself walkin

along a beautiful beach asunset or sunrise. Affirm tha

the temperature is perfect

There is just enough sea



breeze, and your feet enjoy

the gentle caress of the sand

and waves. Feel the oceantaking away all of your

concerns and washing them

off. You do not need to hol on to these old emotions, as

they are not doing you or

anyone else any favors. Take

time to breathe deeply and

enjoy this magicaexperience.



Healing Rain Forest

See yourself seated in the

middle of a rain forest. Take

time to notice the manyshades of green that surroun

ou. Green is the color o

healing, which you welcome

into your body. You will likely

experience tinglingsensations as the emerald

energy enters your being.

With you in the rain fores

Take your mind to the top

of a mountain. From here



ou’re able to gain new

erspectives. Sit down on a

urple rug and observe thebeauty below you

Understand that when you

rise, you have the decision owhere you want to go. Do you

want to go back to the way

ou were before—or do you

want to accept greater health

well-being, and love?You may feel a strong

resence with you. This is

rchangel Michael, who is



here to help clear away fea

and negative energies from

ou’ve had difficulties in theast, but wishes to illuminate

the path to your true healing

Genuine relief can only come

rom inside you. It isn’

something that you receiverom others. It’s something

of God’s love. You deserveabsolute health and comfort

Spend time in this meditation

When you’re in any o

these meditative states, youcan always ask your angelfor additional information and

ou want me to know righnow? What changes woul

ou like to see me make?

Then listen with all of youbody. Pay attention to anythoughts, feelings, visions, osounds. Please also realizethat there is no such thing as a

coincidence; everything iperfectly orchestrated for youto notice along your path

Rather than dismissing



something, look harder—perhaps you will recognize i

as the answer to your prayersFor example, I (Doreen

received a letter from Paula

Kucner Taipa from PolandShe said she enjoyed listeningto my weekly show on HayHouse Radio. One day, Paulahad a terrible headache and a

toothache. During the showthat week, I guided thelisteners through a healing

meditation with the angels



Paula felt the pain lift out oher body—it completely

dissipated! She gratefullygave the situation over to Godand enjoyed the benefits o

meditation. You can, too!



CHAPTER THREE

A LOOK ATSTRESS AND

INFLAMMATION



It is easy to allow pain totake center stage in your life

You might think that thestress you are under is asecondary issue; perhaps you

even blame your physicadiscomfort for creating theemotional strain to beginwith. While this may bepartly true, it is important to

acknowledge the impact youemotions can have on youwonderful body.

Stress is one of the bigges



obstacles to well-being. Iyou continue to listen to the

voice of fear, then you leyourself fall into a cycle opain. When you recognize

that worrying does no goodyou can more easily let youcares go. By taking amultifaceted approach to youwellness, you are more likely

to achieve better, andpermanent, results.Allow your angels to

support you; choose to pray



for a better situation rathethan continuing with

unproductive stress. You wilbe Divinely helped on youhealing path if you open the

doors for Heaven to ease youburdens. However, until yougrant permission, you walkdown the path unaided. Ocourse, your angels and God

are with you always, but theycan’t interfere with youfreewill choices.

Keeping in mind thi



spiritual truth, it becomeclear that stress is something

we must not let into our livesThe angels share with us thastress is simply:

Some

TimeR equiring

EnergyStarving

S pirituality



By that definition, the

energy expended in stresdoes no good, only creatingmore strain. It blocks you

spiritual communication andtricks you into wasting usefutime. Choose to replace iwith the beneficial energy ooy, peace, and healing.

The angels want you tothink of activities that youlove. Ask yourself the

question: When did I las



spend time doing any of those

things? If it was longer than

last week, you need to adjusyour priorities in order to helpyourself be stress-free as wel

as pain-free. Take time eachweek to do what makes youfeel good. Make anappointment with yourselfand promise that you’ll do

what you love. Don’t allowmoney issues to be an excuseyou don’t need to have

regular spa appointments o



expensive massages. Thereare many simple activitie

you can turn to instead. Foexample, you might enjoy arelaxing bath at home, quie

time to read, or a peacefuwalk in nature. Whatever it ithat brings you joy will beworth it.

The angels will provide, so

that you have everything youneed to be happy. If regulamassages really would bring

you peace, then pray for it



You needn’t feel guilty abouthis or think that you’re

wasting God’s time. Heavenknows that the morecomfortable and happy you

are, the more likely it is thayou will listen to your inneguidance, complete youpurpose, and make a readifference in your own life a

well as the lives of othersThe angels simply want youto be happy, so your asking

for these things isn’t insulting



to them. They know that it’not the material objects tha

are important, but the lovethat is exchanged. Anyactivity in which you fee

nurtured and loved will beworth the angelic investment.

To further illustrate oupoint, remember the safetydemonstrations on an

airplane. Before each flightthe attendants remind youthat, in case of emergency

you must put the oxygen



mask on yourself before youhelp others. This is because

ou first need the air tobreathe; you must attend toyour own needs before you

can be of service to anyoneelse. If you ignore thiimportant self-care principlethen you’d likely loseconsciousness and be unable

to assist anyone—includingyourself!The angels remind us tha

everyday life abides by the



same rules. You must take amoment to care for you

needs before worryingyourself with other people’issues. Remember to check in

and see where the stress youfeel is coming from. Is asituation in your own lifecreating it, or is it comingfrom another person? If it’

coming from other people’energy, then you can easilyclear it by calling upon

Archangel Michael and



engaging in regular shieldingImagine a barrier of energy

surrounding you, protectingyou from others’ negativityand outside influences. You

can invoke or strengthen youshield whenever you feel youneed it. (Chapter 11 offermore information onshielding.) If you think tha

ou are the source of youstress, pray for guidance. AskGod and your guardian angel

to share with you new way



in which to proceed.

The Effects of

Chronic Stress on

Your Body

If we think back to only a

few decades ago, modernmedicine didn’t even considestress a health concern. Today



it’s commonly recognized athe root of a number o

conditions. Long-term stresincreases the levels of thehormone cortisol in you

body, which in turn increaseinflammation and promotethe development andprogression of many diseasesIt triggers a multitude o

unfortunate bodily responseand leaves you feelingfrazzled.

As a visual aid, imagine an



electrical cable. Now picturewhat would happen if you

took off the coating andpulled all the wires apartThis is similar to what stress

does to your nervous systemIt frays everything so youbody’s messages are harder toprocess. It takes you a longetime to adjust to change, and

your natural healing pathwayare blocked.It is important to ensure

that you have an outlet to



release any mental oemotional strain you are

under. The angels say thatlike a closet, we have alimited number of “shelves,”

and right now some of yourmay be filled with stresenergy and old emotionsEven if you tried to welcomenew love, healing, or positive

energy into your life, it wouldhave nowhere to go. This iwhy it is so necessary to clea

away some of the clutter from



those shelves—by makingnew room, you allow the

healing to enter.Healthy ways to let go o

stress include meditation, ta

chi, and prayer. Exercise ialso a wonderful reliebecause it triggers your bodyto produce a rush oendorphins, your feel-good

hormones. Try to spend sometime outdoors to enjoy thesunshine. As the golden ray

touch your skin, be willing to



let go of all that no longeserves you. Allow the warmth

from the heavenly sun topurify your heart, mind, andsoul.

Writing letters is anothegood way to release youemotions. To start, simply siat your computer and type aletter that expresses you

feelings—then close theprogram without saving youwork. Nobody needs to read

your thoughts, but it i



essential that you get themout of your energy field

Once those old things havebeen cleared, there’s spacefor healing energy and love to

reside.

The Role of

nflammation



Psychological stresincreases your levels o

cortisol and leads to chronicinflammation in your bodyIt’s important to note tha

inflammation can be thebiggest helper and yet alsothe biggest hindrance tohealing. It is a signal to thebody to begin repair work in

the isolated area. Helpfucells are sent to the affectedsite to aid recovery. These

serve to keep nasty invader



at bay, such as bacteria andviruses, and they protect the

area from further damageHowever, when inflammationbecomes an ongoing

condition, it promotes thedevelopment and progressionof many ailments.

Chronic inflammationoften does not have

characteristic symptoms youcan see with the naked eyesuch as redness. Yet fluid

buildup and swelling may be



apparent, perpetuating theinflammation. This extra

pressure can cause more painand prevent the body fromhealing. Long-term

inflammation also leads to theproduction of damaging freeradicals, which age your cellsprematurely and contribute toa whole host of health

conditions, includingcardiovascular disease andcancer.

There are certain cases in



which your immune systemmistakenly trigger

inflammatory responses. Suchconditions include asthmawhere your airways (the tiny

tubes that transport air to youlungs) become swollen andnarrowed, inhibitingbreathing. High bloodpressure can be affected by

inflammation in the kidneysAbdominal cramps anddiarrhea may be caused by an

inflamed colon. If you



experience any of theseconditions, reducing you

levels of stress will lead toless overall inflammation inyour body, which may ease o

eliminate flare-ups.Many people believe tha

they should remain sedentaryin order to let themselves hea

however, this actually

causes inflammation toincrease. It will sit in youbody until you clear it. This i

why it is essential to include



regular exercise as part oyour routine. Start with gentle

walking. Then, as your fitnesbuilds, you can incorporatemore strenuous workouts

You can refer to Chapter 7for suggestions on how tobuild your exercise regimen.

One important way toreduce chronic inflammation

is to consume enough omega3 oils. Make sure yousupplement with flaxseed oil

which helps properly



lubricate your joints andrelease your muscles. We

discuss omega-3s in the nexchapter, along with othesupplements and herbs with

pain-relieving properties.







CHAPTER FOUR

PAIN-RELIEVINGHERBAL

MEDICINES ANDSUPPLEMENTS



Herbal medicines are awonderful way to connec

with the energy of the earthand your body responds tothem beautifully. There’s no

resistance. There’s no heavymanipulation of your delicatesystem. Instead, the herbsupport your body to create astate of wellness.

It is interesting that many



pharmaceutical drugs haveplant-based origins or are

simply modified forms ocompounds derived fromplants. You may ask yourself

“Why don’t we just use thenatural versions instead otrying to copy what Godperfected?” Well, the simpleanswer is that there’s no

money to be made that way—you cannot patent somethingthat naturally exists

Pharmaceutical companies re



create these compounds in alaboratory, then hope that the

body will respond to themanufactured compound thesame way it does to the

natural substance. They alsotend to isolate or focus on oneparticular chemical. On theother hand, natural remedieacknowledge the wonderfu

team of plant-basedcompounds that work insymphony to create a healing

effect.



We do believe there’s aplace for both modern

medicine and traditionatherapies. If, God forbid, weexperienced a broken leg o

dislocated shoulder, wewould certainly considepharmaceutical treatment as avalid option. That said, wefeel that spiritual and natura

remedies provide the mosbenefits in addressing chronicpain, whether constant o

recurring.



Of course, painmedications serve a purpose

and can help in acute, severesituations. However manypeople become dependent on

them and experience a rangeof terrible side effectsStomach upsets and digestivediscomfort are quite commonif you are sensitive, then

harsh, chemical-basedremedies will only cause yougreater misery. Focus instead

on natural alternatives tha



your body can easily tolerateand appropriately use. (In the

Appendix, you’ll find natura“prescriptions” to ease pain inspecific areas of the body.)

The Risk of

harmaceuticals

One of the mos



frightening andunfortunately, all-too

common results of the use opharmaceutical medication ioverdose. Statistics from the

Centers for Disease Contro(CDC) in the United Statereveal that in 2009, therewere 475,000 visits to theemergency room by people

who had misused or abusedpain medication. In 2008more than 30,000 people died

from an overdose o



prescription drugs, and othese, pain medications were

involved in 14,800 deaths—more than the number odeaths involving heroin and

cocaine combined. Since1990, the number of drugrelated deaths in the U.S. hamore than tripled; in thisame time period, the numbe

of prescriptions for painmedication has also increasedby 300 percent. I (Doreen

lost a dear friend who passed



away at age 55 from a hearattack triggered by taking too

many prescription pain pills.When people take a

painkiller, the chemicals latch

onto receptor sites in thebrain, which causes the painto go away. Often, they alsofeel a mild state of euphoriaand it is not uncommon to

become addicted to thacomfortable feeling. Theirrational mind is seduced

into taking more pills to



achieve an even greateblissful state.

It is important to know thapain medication can act as asedative. If a high enough

dosage is taken, breathing canslow down so much that istops. It’s a dangeroupractice for addicted userswho try to strike a balance

between dosages that are highenough to take awaywithdrawal symptoms and

give them the euphoria they



crave, yet low enough not toeopardize their lives. The

sheer number of deaths thaoccur each year is a clear signthat this practice is extremely

risky and cannot bemaintained for long.

A terrifying number opeople are using painkillerrecreation-ally. In 2010, the

CDC reported that more than12 million Americans usedpain medications for the

feeling they got when they



took them rather than fomanagement of thei

symptoms. This is evidenceof painkillers’ highlyaddictive nature and the risk

they pose for sensitivepeople. If you are reading thibook, you are most likely asensitive person. You’reseeking answers to question

that most others have yet toexplore. We’re not here toshame modern medicine o

steer you away from it



Instead we want you to knowthe facts. An educated person

is better at making a wisedecision for his or her healthand future.

erbal Remedies

An alternative toprescription painkillers

herbal medicines can come in



tablets, capsules, tinctures, oextracts. As long as the

quality of the herb is thesame, the form in which youingest it shouldn’t make a

difference. However, liquidforms require less work fromyour system because they arealready broken down andready to be absorbed. Tablets

in contrast, need to bedigested before the precioumedicines can be utilized by

your body.



When purchasing herbaremedies, look first fo

organic or biodynamicproducts. This usually meanthe plants have been grown

without the use of chemicaland pesticides, and withfarming practices that aren’harmful to the environmentWild-crafted herbs are also

very potent. These are herbthat have been picked in theinatural environment. Finally

there are conventionally o



trade-grown herbs, whichhave been treated with harsh

fertilizers, chemicals, andpesticides. Be careful; whenyou ingest these, you may

also be putting harmful toxininto your body.

Not every company putsinformation about how theiherbs are grown on thei

labels, but you can certainlyask for it. Don’t becomecomplacent about wha

you’re putting into your body



Give yourself the best chanceof recovery by avoiding

toxins and poor-qualityproducts. If you are sensitiveto alcohol for whateve

reason, be sure to checkwhether your liquid herbs aresuspended in alcohol. Thereare plenty of herbs innonalcoholic suspensions.



ealing Prayer Over

erbs

Before taking your herbspay your respects to the planfor its act of service. Take a

few moments to infuse youmedicine with love andgratitude. This will raise it

vibration and increase iteffectiveness.

Either place the herb in



your hands, or hold youhands just above it. Connec

to its energy by breathingdeeply. As you relax throughthis conscious breath, you

aura expands. Let youenergy mingle with that of theherb. You’ll feel a slighpressure, tingling, or warmthin your hands.

Next, call upon the healingenergy of Archangel Raphaeby saying:





this will integrate with youbody easily and effortlessly

ext, say:

“Angels, I ask you to awaken

the spirit of this herb for healing. May your gift of

service be well received.

Thank you.”

Now, allow the herb to doits healing work.



Choose Herbs and

upplementsntuitively

Follow your intuition whenchoosing herbal medicines. I

you get a gut feeling to try acertain herb, trust it—theresults could be life changing(Of course, if you are undemedical care, check with a

professional to ensure safety



in terms of interactions withyour current medications.)

Elena Vasilis discoveredthe healing power of herbswhen she was in her early

20s. She suffered fromconstant digestive painnausea, and discomfort. Hedoctor would prescribeantibiotics, but the symptom

never went away. After acouple of years, a doctoarranged an endoscopy and

discovered that Elena had



acid reflux disease. She waprescribed stomach tablets

but she continued toexperience discomfort. Sheprayed for a miracle from

God and Archangel Raphael.Then Elena decided to take

action and began taking bettecare of herself. She startedeating more fruits and

vegetables and drinking morewater. She also decided toremove gluten and dairy from

her diet, but she still had



stomach troubles. Then oneday, Elena received intuitive

guidance to drink peppermintea. She began drinking ievery day for a week, and, to

her amazement, it stopped alher nausea and pain!

Elena now recommendspeppermint to anyone withstomach complaints. She i

careful to use only goodquality herbs from the healthfood store. Sometimes she

adds the fresh leaves in he



hot teas or in refreshing icedteas in the warmer months

Elena is pleased that Divineguidance healed her stomach.

ecommended Herbs

Consider whether any othe following herbs may be ouse to you on your own

healing journey. If you have a



pre-existing condition or arecurrently on any medication

or treatment plans, please geadvice from your careprovider before adding herb

to your regimen.While I (Robert) love the

effect of herbal formulas, thetaste is usually not the mospleasant. Before taking liquid

extracts and tinctures, always dilute them in wateand have a “chaser” ready.

usually use a half cup o



water, but I know somepeople use a mere tablespoon

and drink it in one mouthfulIt doesn’t matter how muchwater you mix with the herba

medicines—just make sureyou drink it all. Then quicklyfollow with another drinkperhaps juice.

It is best to take herba

medicines just after eatingunless the directions stateotherwise. You don’t need to

be exact, but don’t wai



longer than 30 minutes or imay give you digestive upset

Ginger ( Zingiber officinale)

Ginger is a common spice

with a warming flavor thayou’ve likely used incooking. You can use ginge



for healing as well. Considepreparing your meals with the

idea of healing pain. Includefresh ginger in stir-fryssoups, and even juices.

This root’s warmth helpclear old, low energy bypushing out the blocks inyour body that hold on topain. In herbal medicine

ginger is one of the moseffective anti-inflammatoryplants. It relaxes muscula

tension and takes away join



pain. It also stimulates youcirculation and assists the

transport of helpful cellaround your body.

A study published in the

ournal Arthritis comparedthe effectiveness of ginger tothat of cortisone andibuprofen when used in thetreatment of osteoarthritis and

rheumatoid arthritis. Thiparticular study found that anextract of ginger was a

effective an anti



inflammatory agent acortisone, and the ibuprofen

had no effect on cytokineproduction, one of the factorthat causes pain. Cortisone

has a long list of possible sideeffects, including weighgain, depression, severeheadaches, chest pains, andsleeping issues. Ginger, on

the other hand, has very fewside effects, although ishould be avoided before

surgery and by those with



peptic ulcers, due to itblood-thinning quality.

Research conducted aOdense University inDenmark also found ginger to

be a highly effective healerThe study gave arthriticpatients a small amount oginger each day for threemonths. Almost all the

participants experiencedsignificant improvements inpain levels, swelling, and

morning stiffness just by



eating ginger. The headresearcher, Dr. Srivastava

went on to say that ginger isuperior to nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug

(NSAIDs). These drugs onlywork to block the productionof inflammatory markersGinger does this and alsoreduces existing

inflammation.Taking ginger as a liquidtincture can alleviate nausea

and other digestive



discomforts. Take 10 drops ina little water, and within 15

minutes, the complaint wildissipate. For chronic painand inflammation, you may

need higher amounts. In thesecases, take 25 drops of gingetincture three times per day.

Ginger in liquid formcontains alcohol, so avoid

taking too much. A safemethod for higher doses istablets or capsules. You

body can handle a highe



concentration; try 1,000 mgdivided into two or three

doses, per day. After a coupleof weeks, you’ll find pain andinflammation decreasing.

Boswellia ( Boswellia

serrata)

Boswellia is a resin that’



produced from a type ofrankincense tree. True

frankincense resin has a longhistory of being used for itcleansing and uplifting

properties, often as anincense. It’s smoldered ovecharcoal to rid the space onegative energies andwelcome in the angels

Boswellia emits a similavibration.A 2003 randomized

double-blind study compared



the efficacy of boswellia witha placebo in patients with

osteoarthritis. After a periodof eight weeks, the groupwere tested for pain, then the

control and the treatmengroups were switched. At theend of the trial, it was cleathat when patients usedboswellia, they noticed a

decrease in pain and swellingan increase in flexibility, andgeneral improvement in

comfort levels. The



researchers suggest thaboswellia could be a viable

treatment for arthritipatients.

In 2013 a medical research

team tested a combination oboswellia and turmericagainst celecoxib (brandname Celebrex) in patientwith osteoarthritis. They

found that the herbacombination was moreeffective at treating pain and

inflammation than the



celecoxib. They noted that theboswellia and turmeric

combination was weltolerated and had no adverseeffects.

Since boswellia comesfrom a resin, it’s best taken asa tablet or capsule. Somemanufacturers produce liquidformulas, but the oily taste

makes it difficult to stickwith. Take 4,000 mg, dividedinto two or three doses, pe

day.



Capsaicin

Capsaicin is the activecomponent of chili peppers

Studies have shown thausing a topical creamcontaining capsaicin candramatically reduce theseverity of pain. Arthritis

sufferers have reported amarked improvement that canlast for several weeks. The

reason behind this is tha



capsaicin temporarily numbthe pain-sensitive nerve

fibers. While these nerveendings repair, you remainpain-free!

You can find creamcontaining capsaicin ahealth-food stores. Apply itwo to four times per day, andafter about two weeks you

should notice animprovement with painfuarthritis or sore muscles. This

cream works by stimulating



then decreasing, pain signalin your body.

To make your own potentcapsaicin-infused oil, add 2tablespoons of dried organic

chili flakes to 1 cup oorganic, cold-pressed, extravirgin olive oil. Place themixture in a double boiler onthe stove, or in a heatproo

bowl sitting over a pot oboiling water. Heat gently fo60 minutes, allowing the chil

to infuse the oil. Strain by



pouring through some muslininto a clean jar, allow to cool

then cover tightly.Please take every

precaution to keep this oi

away from your eyes andmouth, and out of the reach ochildren. To use, apply asmall amount (a couple odrops) to the affected area

and gently rub in. You maywant to wear gloves whenapplying, to avoid irritation

It’s normal to experience hea



and light redness, but if yousense that it’s too irritating

then remove it as soon apossible.

Arnica

The herb arnica is harmfuif consumed in its raw formHomeopathic arnica

however, is highly effective



at treating bruising, pain, andswelling. The exac

mechanisms by which iworks are unknown, buresearch has shown it to be

especially good for acuteinjuries and postsurgeryswelling.

To make a homeopathicremedy, there are a series o

dilutions (known aotentizations). Let’s usearnica as our example: 1 drop

of arnica extract added to 9





solution makes Arnica 2Cand so on.

After you reach 12C, thereis no longer any physicaarnica remaining in the

product, but thepotentizations extract itenergy to create a highvibrational remedy. Themagic of homeopathy

removes the harmful aspectsof an object while enhancingthe healing properties. The

process of serial dilution can



continue many more times, toreach hundreds or thousand

of dilutions. Paradoxicallythe more “diluted” theremedy is, the more potent it

energy becomes. Thosehigher dilutions affect themental and emotional aspectof a person, whereas thelower potencies treat the

physical.Arnica is best taken whenthere’s a recent injury o

bruising, such as when



you’ve fallen, tripped, ocollided with something—fo

example, jamming a finger ina car door or hitting it with ahammer.

Homeopathy is not advisedas a preventive measure. Wehave heard of a football teamwho took arnica before amatch with the idea that i

would decrease recoverytime, heal injuries, and gethem back on the field faster

Instead, the opposite



happened, and they bruisedterribly!

Remember, homeopathy ibased on the principle of “likecures like.” So a substance

that causes symptoms in ahealthy individual will heathose same symptoms fosomeone who’s unwell. Anda homeopathic remedy can

create the symptoms inhealthy individuals that icures in the sick or injured

Indeed, some people are



actually employed to takehomeopathic remedies just to

see what the remedy cantreat.

While the reasons behind

arnica’s efficacy areunknown, the results cannobe ignored. Considehomeopathic arnica a first-aidremedy in your cupboard.



Willow Bark ( Salix

alba)

Willow bark is a timetested, traditional remedy. Ican reduce fever, lowe

inflammation, and alleviatepain anywhere in the body. Iis available for purchase as a

tea, a liquid extract, otablets.

A study conducted on 200



patients with back pain foundthat those given willow bark

showed marked improvemenover the placebo group, andthe group given a highe

dosage of willow bark foundeven more relief than the lowdosage group. It is anexcellent herb foosteoarthritis because i

reduces both the sensation opain and the inflammationthat aggravates it.

One reason why willow



bark is effective at reducinginflammation is that i

contains salicin. Thicompound was extractedduring the 1800s to develop

acetylsalicylic acid, morecommonly known as aspirinWillow bark does not work aquickly as aspirin, but iteffects may last longer. And

while aspirin does bringabout very quick, effectivepain relief and feve

reduction, overuse can lead to



digestive issues and stomachcomplaints. Interestingly, the

original version, willow barkcan also heal digestiveinflammation and is much

better tolerated.It is interesting to note tha

one double-blind, placebocontrolled trial suggested thathe pain-relieving propertie

of willow bark could not beattributed to the salicin aloneSo when you take a medicine

that isolates that substance



you lose out on the othehealing powers of the herb

Truly, the whole is alwaygreater than the sum of itsparts!

Turmeric (Curcuma

longa)

Turmeric has been dubbed



one of the most effectiveplant-based medicines fo

inflammation of all kinds. Iis able to ease swellingthroughout the entire body

and also target specific areaof pain. If you treat thesymptoms of pain withouaddressing the inflammationthe swelling and pressure

builds so that the pain wilreturn as soon as you stoptaking the medicine. When

you clear the inflammation



you are also targeting thecause of your pain.

Turmeric is a culinaryspice that’s often used to addcolor to dishes. However, the

magical properties of thiorange root go far beyond itability to brighten the look oa dish. Turmeric contains acompound called curcumin

This natural chemical habeen researched dozens otimes and continues to show

more amazing pain-reducing



qualities. Turmeric can beused for osteoarthritis

rheumatoid arthritisbackaches, menstruadiscomfort, headaches, and

any other inflammatorycondition. It is also wonderfufor liver detoxification.

An Indian study conductedin 2013 showed the efficacy

and safety of using turmericfor pain management andhealing. One hundred twenty

patients with osteoarthritis



were given either a placeboturmeric extract

glucosamine, or acombination of glucosamineand turmeric. The group tha

showed the mosimprovement on a number oclinical assessments was theone given turmeric.

Turmeric has a more poten

reaction in the body when it’sconsumed alongside somekind of fat. A traditiona

preparation would be a curry



dish that contains the spice aswell as coconut cream. You

might also try mixingturmeric into a smoothie withcoconut oil, or adding a

teaspoon to yogurt. Selecorganic soy, almond, or dairyyogurt, and be sure not to usea low-fat or fat-free version!

Some companies are

creating turmeric preparationto ensure that they contain astandardized level o

curcumin. This can be good



because it allows you to knowthat you’re getting the

amount that research suggestis the most effective. On theother hand, you’re taking a

product that’s nowunbalanced and unlike theway God created it. Weprefer to trust in God’wisdom and know tha

everything was createdperfect, so we don’t feel theneed to take standardized

supplements. Instead, seek



whole products that are anature intended.

Turmeric is an excellenantioxidant, so it’s oftentaken as a cancer preventive

Inflammatory conditioncause greater stress to thebody, using up preciousresources that the body maynot be able to replenish as

quickly as it needs to. Thihigh demand can lead to celmutations and damage and

eventually, cancer. Turmeric



helps clear awayinflammation and protec

cells from oxidative damage.

Devil’s Claw

( Harpagophytum procumbens)

While the name isn’angelic, devil’s claw is a



highly effective remedy fopain. (The name is derived

from the plant’s appearancespiky barbs in a circle look alot like a scary claw!) Take

devil’s claw for 8 to 12 weekto begin seeing improvementin joint flexibility and painlevels.

One study, conducted ove

four months on 122 peoplecompared devil’s claw with aleading pain medication fo

arthritis. Those who took the



herb reported as much painrelief as those taking the

pharmaceutical drugs, buwith fewer side effectsAnother study compared 38

people who took devil’s clawwith 35 who took thepharmaceutical Vioxx for ayear. Both groupexperienced the same level o

pain relief. However, it isimportant to note that Vioxxwas removed from the marke

in 2004 because it was linked



to an increased risk of hearattack and stroke. Devil’

claw, on the other hand, habeen used for hundreds oyears and appears to be very

safe and well tolerated.I (Robert) prefer to give

devil’s claw as a liquidextract because I feel theliquid contains a highe

energy than tablet andcapsule preparations. Followyour own intuitive feelings

and see if you sense the same



thing. I often prescribe ½teaspoon (2.5 ml) three time

per day. Remember, herbs inliquid form are best taken in alittle water, just after eating.

Saint-John’s-wort

( Hypericum

perforatum)



Saint-John’s-wort icommonly thought of as a

remedy for stress anddepression. It is awonderfully uplifting herb

that raises your body’serotonin levels naturally. Byincreasing these feelgoodhormones, you experiencemore joy in your day. This

alone could be wonderfullyhealing, because the fastesway to a pain-free body is to

find happiness first!



Along with raising youenergy and vitality, Saint

John’s-wort also treats nervepain. This type of pain maybe sharp, stabbing, and

sudden; feel like pins andneedles; or even resemble asense of numbness. Andaccording to a 2013 studypublished in the journa

hytomedicine, Saint-John’swort helps block painpathways and is a grea

treatment for migraines.



This herb can also be oservice to people who have

endured amputations andexperience the “phantompain” caused by nerve signal

being misinterpreted. (Robert) recall one patienwho had a finger removedyet she could still feetingling in that fingertip, with

desperate urges to scratch itAfter a few weeks of takingSaint-John’s-wort, she

happily reported that the



annoyance was gone.We adore working with the

herbal extract of SaintJohn’s-wort, particularly as aliquid or tincture. A good

quality product will be a richdeep red color; this issymbolic of the protectionand security it gives. There’something so valuable in

Saint-John’s-wort extract. It’akin to happiness in a bottleIt pulls you away from chao

and drama, and lifts you up so



you gain a new perspectiveon how to heal. However

these qualities are onlypresent in the liquid form; iappears the tablets and

capsules are missing thienergetic component. Take 7drops, three times per dayWithin the week, your souwill feel refreshed. You wil

start smiling more, and painwill ease. Continue takingSaint-John’s-wort for two o

three months, or as you fee



guided.The homeopathic

formulation is wonderful, tootry Hypericum 12C for nervepain.

As soon as you take SaintJohn’s-wort, ArchangeRaphael works with you andguides you on your healingourney. He will show you

ways of changing youposture and sleeping habits tomake your body more

comfortable. Trust you

necessary changes.Another of my (Robert’s

patients had chronic

backaches. He was inconstant pain and was oftenhunched over in severediscomfort. He worked as awater delivery person

carrying large, heavy bottleinto offices and homes everyday. After he took Saint

John’s-wort, his discomfor



eased, his posture improvedand he recognized that his job

was causing him more harmthan good. The pay wasn’worth the physical agony. Hi

angels guided him to a jobopportunity as an ambulanceofficer, so now he guideothers to a long and healthylife.

Cautionary Note: SaintJohn’s-wort has significaninteractions with certain

medications, including some



antidepressants, statins, andoral contraceptives. If you are

currently taking medicationconsult with your health-carepractitioner before taking

Saint-John’s-wort.

Cramp Bark

(Viburnum opulus)



While cramp bark has noyet been subject to scientific

study, it has a long history osuccess and has proven ithealing power in the hands o

many herbalists. As the namesuggests, cramp bark allowyour muscles to release theitension.

this herb—it works onanother level that’s more thansimple chemicals and

compounds. It has a higheintelligence that speaks toyour body on a deep level.

Corydalis (Corydalis

ambigua)



Corydalis is said to be oneof the strongest pain reliever

in all of herbal medicineStudies have shown it to beeffective agains

inflammatory, acute, andchronic pain. It is a membeof the poppy family, likeopium—but without theharmful side effects or dange

of addiction. One researchefound corydalis to have 10percent of the potency o

opium (which is significant!)



with pain relief lasting up totwo hours.

This is a hard tuberous roothat takes much effort tobreak down into a powder

signaling it’s best used fohard pain cases, when otheherbs have failed. It’effective at relieving manytypes of pain, including

arthritis, back, neck, andmenstrual pain. Studiessuggest that the pain-relieving

compound in corydalis doe



not lose effectiveness ovelong periods of use, unlike

other opiates such asmorphine, so it truly is awonder for chronic pain. O

course, always check toensure it won’t interfere withother medications.

We suggest using this herbfor a month or two to contro

your symptoms. Then moveon to something else that cansupport you in a differen

way. Corydalis stops pain



but you mustn’t rely on it. Wedon’t recommend taking

corydalis for more than threemonths. Energetically, herbwant to be with you only fo

the short-term. After clearingpain from your body, they’reno longer needed. They arenot meant to be preventivetreatments.

Start with a large dose of 2teaspoons (10 ml). Then, fothe first week, take ½

teaspoon (2.5 ml), three time



a day, and slowly decreaseyour dose each day thereafter

Your ego may try to convinceyou that this will bring backthe pain, but remember tha

herbal medicines are differenfrom pharmaceutical painrelievers. Herbs work withyour system in a holistic wayto repair and strengthen rathe

than simply masking thesymptoms. The pain will beremoved from your aura, so

when you stop taking the



herbs, you will continue tofeel wonderfully comfortable

in your precious body.

ecommended

upplements

We have found thefollowing supplements to bevery helpful for many people



in the management of theipain. As we’ve said, if you

have a pre-existing conditionor are currently on anymedications or treatmen

plans, please get advice fromyour care provider beforetaking any supplements.

Take supplements withfood, unless otherwise stated

in the directions. It is usuallybest to ingest supplementust before eating (unlike

herbal remedies, which are



best taken after eating).

SAMe (S-Adenosyl

Methionine)

SAMe is one of my(Robert’s) favorite treatment

for depression, grief, andstress. It works incrediblyfast, and I often compare it to



a light switch—it illuminatethe room by casting out al

darkness. I’ve seen thiproduct help people in theidarkest moments and lift the

spirits of depressed patientin a matter of days. When youtake SAMe, the worldbecomes a brighter placeYou laugh more, and it’s a

real, genuine laughter.SAMe is also wonderfufor clearing pain, although it

mechanisms for doing so are



not clearly understood. SomeSAMe is naturally produced

in the body. Taking it as asupplement seems to reduceinflammation and boost feel

good hormones. Studies haveshown SAMe to be aeffective as some NSAID(nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs), withou

the common side effects ocardiovascular risks that othedrugs can have. One of the

only possible issues with



SAMe is its rather high priceSAMe is a very unstable

product, requiring that manyquality-control procedures beput in place, which drives up

the cost. Trust us, though—iis well worth it!

Dosage is key when icomes to SAMe. Due to thehigh manufacturing costs

many retail products haveonly low levels of thecompound. Keep in mind tha

you will need 800 to 1,200



mcg per day to feel relief(This is done in divided

doses, 400 mcg two or threetimes per day.) Most SAMepills are enterically coated to

prevent them from beingbroken down in the stomachinstead, they are broken downin the small intestineTherefore, it is important no

to break tablets apart, as thiwill cause degradation.Good-quality SAMe

products will contain



cofactors to help theabsorption, such as zinc and

B vitamins. Although youwill want high amounts oSAMe, you may not want too

much of the other ingredientin the supplement. Checkwith a health-careprofessional or naturopath forecommendations.

Cautionary Note: SAMe isknown to interact with somedrugs, including

antidepressants, and is no





considered “essential” fatsbecause your body canno

make them; you musconsume them in your dietFish oil contains the omega

3s docosahexaenoic acid(DHA) and eicosapentaenoicacid (EPA). Some plant oilcontain alpha-linolenic acid(ALA), which your body may

convert to DHA and EPA.There are countless studiesupporting the use of fish oi

for treating pain. It lubricate



the joints and reduceinflammation in the body

Many people have found thaafter taking fish oil for a fewmonths, they can reduce, o

totally eliminate, their needfor pain medications. Be sureto read labels to make sureyou are getting enoughomega-3s. You may need

2,000 mg of EPA per day, ormore, depending on youhealth and physical condition

However, the source of fish



oil can play a role in its healthproperties. For example, if i

is derived from large fish liketuna, mackerel, or cod, thenthere can be unacceptably

high levels of mercurypresent.

A healthy, mercury-freechoice is flaxseed or linseedoil. (They’re different name

for the same thing.) Amentioned, these oils containALA, which your body

breaks down and convert



into EPA and DHA. Flaxseedoil supplements are usually

made up of 52 to 62 percenomega-3s, whereas fish oil ionly 30 percent. It is bette

for both your body and theenvironment to consumeflaxseed oil. You canpurchase it as liquid ocapsules; just note that some

brands must be stored in thefridge to avoid going rancidThe ideal dose is two

teaspoons per day, or 10,000



mg divided into two or threedoses.

MSM(Methylsulfonylmeth

MSM is a sulfur compound

that has been used to treat awide range of conditions. Iappears to block the message



of pain along your nervefibers. It can help with

swelling, inflammation, andfluid by enhancing youbody’s natural anti

Magnesium



Magnesium is used by thebody in a number of diverse

roles, including nervefunction, blood glucosecontrol, and blood pressure

regulation. Magnesium is alsoused in every single musclecontraction, so the more youexercise, the more you need(This is why it is highly

recommended that athletetake it.) Although peopleoften think of using this

supplement only for muscle



cramps, magnesium alsoeases general tension in you

body and can help managepain in a number of ways.

Many pain sufferers repor

does not induce sleep, it doeallow your body to relaxenough to help you drift of

and get the healing rest you



need. As a general guidelinewe recommend eight hours o

sleep each night, so that youspend enough time in thedeeper, restorative states

which can’t be reached withina short period of time.

Magnesium also helpblock NMDA receptorswhich are importan

components in processingpain in your brain. So iyou’re deficient in thi

mineral, your pain response i

magnesium if you’re highlysensitive and even theslightest bump can cause you

agony.We suggest 400 mg o

elemental magnesium peday. We’ve found that it’best to take the supplement in

the evening, because researchshows that its absorptionlevels peak six hours afte

consumption. So if you take i



before you sleep, you’ll wakeup with perfect levels and a

greater tolerance for painYour body will be processingthe messages of discomfort in

a more balanced and healingway.

Vitamin D

We usually think o



vitamin D for bone strengthyet science is showing us tha

it is important for ouimmune system, hormonelevels, and even skin health

A study conducted in 2009found that people withvitamin D deficiency requiredtwice as much painmedication as those with

CHAPTER FIVE

NUTRITION TOCONQUER

INFLAMMATIONAND PAIN



What you eat and drink iust as important to you

health as what medicines youtake and what therapies youundergo. As we said, if you

address your pain on only asuperficial level, you will noexperience completewellness. When you work onyourself in a holistic way, the

angels support you and



provide you with magicaexperiences.

The most optimal diet foyour body consists of naturafoods, mainly organic fruits

and vegetables. You mighthink, That sounds like wha

my great-grandmother ate

Well, you’d be right. Lookingback 100 years, organic food

wasn’t special—because thawas all that existed!Mother Nature created

food perfectly. We don’t need



to alter the genetic makeup oplants or adulterate them with

man-made chemicals. Bunow we grow things undesuch conditions tha

poisonous pesticides andharsh chemical fertilizers areoften used. The food is lacedwith toxic coatings so it lastlonger on the shelf and more

can be produced. Yet fewconsider the harmful effectall this has on the human

body.



Your logical brain mightry to convince you tha

eating organic produce is tooexpensive. However, whenyou avoid the processed

garbage and choose realnatural food, you wilremember how good you canfeel when enjoying naturafoods. You and your family

will not only enjoy the tastebut also the feelings youreceive. Instead of leaving

fruit to wither in a bowl, you



family will eat it and desiremore. They can tell on a

subconscious level that thifood is healing from theinside out.

aintaining the Acid-

lkaline Balance in

Your Body



A low-acidic diet is awonderful way to release

chronic inflammation fromyour body. Acid-causingfoods produce just that—

metabolic acids. Too much othese can lead to generadiscomfort along with othehealth concerns. Many peoplehave found dramatic

improvements just by alteringwhat they eat to support analkaline state.

Rheumatoid arthritis is one



of the most responsiveconditions to a low-acid diet

Furthermore, many of my(Robert’s) patients havefound relief from thei

symptoms by ceasing to eafoods from the nightshadefamily, which containinflammation-inducingalkaloids. Members of thi

group include potatoestomatoes, chilis, andeggplant.

Even normal metabolic



processes can create acidsthat need to be cleared. Fo

example, exercise can createa buildup of lactic acid; mospeople have experienced the

soreness that results a day otwo after a workout. Similapain is happening on asmaller scale with acid thafloats through your system. I

enough builds up, then youwill feel it more consciously.Arthritis and genera

stiffness in your joints i



caused by acids that lodgethemselves in those areas

Osteoarthritis is characterizedby a decline in cartilage in theoints; this can occu

anywhere, including thefingers, knees, hips, neck, andback. This is partly caused bygeneral wear and tear, butrapped acids will also

exacerbate the sensation opain. Eating a diet that shiftyour body into an alkaline

state will help flush them out.



Not only do acidic foodcreate inflammation, but they

can actually pull calcium ouof your skeleton. This makeyour bones brittle and more

prone to breaks. The enameon your teeth can alsobecome more fragile, whichis something that cannot berepaired. If you show signs o

low bone density, such aosteoporosis or osteopeniathen please check your diet.

It would be wise to





white flour, artificiasweeteners, coffee, soda, and

alcohol.

Lemons for

Alkalinity

While it might seemnatural to think that citrufruits would be acid-causing

water first thing in the



morning to kick-start youdigestion and help your body

rid itself of acids.If you have a high-powered

blender or juicer, you can use

the entire lemon, peel and allrather than only the juice. Jusmake sure you’ve rinsed thelemon really well firstHowever, the flavor can take

ncreasing

ndorphins, Your ody’s Pain Medicine



When you are hurt, yourbody releases its own pain

reliever: endorphins. Thineurotransmitter blocks thepathway of pain at the brain

stem and is a naturallyoccurring substance that haan opiate-like effect, rathelike morphine. The moreendorphins floating around

your body, the less pain youwill experience.Endorphins are produced

from amino acids, which are



natural compounds that youneed for wellness. Your body

can synthesize some of thesebut others must be gainedfrom your diet. When you

consume high-protein foodsyour body breaks them downinto the complete range oamino acids.

Good vegan sources o

protein include:

Soy (organic, to

avoid chemicals and



genetically modifiedsoy)

Rice protein (organiconly)

Pea protein

Almonds (including

almond milk and butter)

Quinoa

Lentils

Beans



Good non-vegan sources oprotein, to be consumed in

moderation, include:

Dairy

Eggs (from freerange chickens)

Whey protein

Choose only organic, non–genetically modified optionsand make sure you’re eating

protein at every meal to give



you adequate amino acidsAlso, consuming a wide

range of organic fruits andvegetables will help nourishyour system in a gentle way.

If your diet doesn’t provideyou with enough amino acidsyou may need to takesupplements for a shorperiod of time. Phenylalanine

is an essential amino acidand excellent for painmanagement support because

it helps prevent the



breakdown of endorphinsthereby prolonging thei

effect. There are two kinds: Dand L. L-phenylalanine is thenatural version found in

proteins, while Dphenylalanine is synthesizedin a lab. L-phenylalanine ismore readily absorbedhowever, it can be

overstimulating in sensitivepeople, so pay close attentionto your moods, anxiety levels

and heart rate. Start with 500



mg twice daily. Then, if youbody can tolerate it, conside

moving up to three times peday for one month onlybefore reducing to 500 mg

once a day. You shouldnotice dramatic changes inyour pain levels within thefirst week.

Please understand tha

phenylalaninesupplementation is not a truecure. Instead, it adjusts you

reactions to the sensation o



pain. The underlyingdysfunction may still be

present, but you will be betteable to direct your truehealing once your symptom

are under control. So look athis as a short-termmanagement strategy whilesimultaneously working onthe cause of pain.



llergies and Dietary

ntolerances

If you eat large amounts oany food, your body will getired of them. Indeed, you can

develop an intolerance toanything! If you eat tomatoefor every meal, you may very

well end up having badreactions to them one dayThis is why naturopaths have



long advised their clientabout implementing a

rotational diet. After eatingsomething, you would bewise to avoid it for severa

days. Ensure that you try newfoods all the time. Don’t gestuck on one type of meal andthe same ingredients. We alhave our favorites, but we

Consuming something to



which you are allergic leadto inflammation. This can

be awakened, and you’lknow the angels are in play.

The Healing Power ofWater



The average person cansurvive for weeks withou

food, but only a few daywithout water. It is vital tokeeping you healthy, happy

and pain-free. Throughgeneral metabolic processesyour body loses over a lite(4.2 cups) of water each dayWhen you don’t drink enough

to replenish this loss, youbody holds on to as much afluid as possible, making it a

challenge to reduce swelling



The more you drink, theeasier it is for your system to

flush out toxins andinflammatory compounds.

Your brain is the center o

your nervous system, and ineeds water to work properlyStaying hydrated is essentiato keeping your bodilyfunctions running smoothly

Otherwise, you will findyourself fatigued and unableto concentrate. It will become

harder to focus on positive



and loving thoughts, youmood may become depressed

and your connection to theangels may be strained. Byproviding your body and

brain with the water youneed, you’ll enjoy lighthoughts and a stable bondwith the angelic realm.

People often misinterpre

thirst as hunger and eainstead of providing theibodies with essential water

When you think you fee



“hunger,” take a moment totune in to your body. Have a

glass of water, and see if thesensation goes away after fiveminutes. You may be

surprised by how often watesatisfies your cravings!

Measuring your wateintake will allow you toensure that you are regularly

hydrating your system. Aimfor a half ounce of water pepound of body weight, or 30

ml per kilogram. Get a



stainless-steel or glass watebottle that you can take with

you during your dailyactivities, and remember toregularly fill it.

You can make drinkingwater more fun by addingsmall amounts of freshlysqueezed organic juice, oslices of fresh organic lemon

and lime. Combine this withfresh organic mint leaves foa refreshing treat on a warm

day.



The Quality of Your

rinking Water

While it is essential toconsume adequate amounts owater, the quality of the

source is also important foyour health. Here’s a simpleexperiment: Notice how often

you need to visit thebathroom. After drinking atall glass, do you feel the urge



to relieve yourself only 30minutes later? With better

quality water, you may noneed to go for an hour omore, and when you do

you’ll release less than whayou drank. This is proof thathe water didn’t simply pasthrough your body and hainstead been put to good use

in vital metabolic processes.Do your research into thequality of your region’s tap

water—you may be surprised



by how poor it is. If youchoose to drink bottled water

find out the process used tocollect it; many brands areactually treated with

chemicals. The best option ia natural springwater thainvolves minimal handlingtaken from an undergroundsource and put straight in the

bottle. This will not have theharsh chemicals or pollutantthat treated waters do

Unprocessed water retains the



minerals and trace elementthat your body needs. There

are many reputablecompanies who provide athome springwater dispensers

Be sure that the containersthat hold the water are madeof BPA-free plastic (we’ldiscuss the dangers of BPA inthe next chapter).

Check the mineral analysiof your water to ensure that idoesn’t have only sodium and

chloride. While some sodium



is needed, it shouldn’t be thesole mineral present. Good

quality water will alsoinclude small traces ocalcium, magnesium, and

potassium, which help youbody absorb and use thewater you consume. This iwhy purified and distilledwaters, while better than tap

water, are still not ideal. Theymay sound “clean,” but theyhave been processed to

remove all of those minerals



There is a compromise: filteyour water, but add the

minerals back in with saltote, however, that mos

table salts have been refined

thereby stripping them othese minerals. It is importanto use only good-qualityCeltic, Atlantic, Himalayanor Dead Sea salts. Just add a

tiny pinch to your watebottle and shake well.



Maintaining Your

Electrolyte BalanceNaturally

Electrolytes are speciaminerals that your body need

for nerve and musclefunction, hydrationregulating blood pH andblood pressure, andrebuilding damaged tissue

You lose electrolytes through



your sweat, and when you aredeficient, you can experience

pain, muscle twitching, andlight-headedness.

I (Robert) would

experience these symptomafter hard workouts at thegym. At first I thought I wadeficient in magnesium, so used a high-quality

supplement for severaweeks. There was a slighchange, but I still had aches

and pains that wouldn’t go



away. I felt like I was doingmore harm at the gym than

good. Intuitively I knew therewas something else going on.

My naturopathic

dispensary is well stocked, soI have a vast array osupplements and herbamedicines at my disposalHowever, my angels were

telling me that none of thesewere the answer to mysituation. I meditated and

prayed to Heaven for help



figuring this one out. Whawas causing me so much

discomfort and restless nightof tossing and turning?

The angels said I was

running out of electrolytes. trusted their message; afteall, it makes sense! When youexercise, you sweat andthereby lose these valuable

minerals. That’s why sportsdrinks are fortified with themHowever, I wasn’t about to

drink any artificially colored



flavored, sweetened “healthdrinks”! I started researching

natural replacements, buthere aren’t really anycommercially available

supplements. There areseveral fruits rich inelectrolytes, such as lemonsand limes, so I began addingthese to my morning juice

and noticed a big differencein the way I felt.The angels also guided me

to use Himalayan salt



Himalayan, Celtic, Atlanticand Dead Sea salts contain

the electrolytes you need, andyou need add only thesmallest pinch to your wate

bottle. It shouldn’t taste supesalty, and you could alwayadd more flavor with a sliceof lemon or lime, which alsopacks in even more benefits.

I find that when I work ounow, I have greateendurance. My body is doing

what my brain is telling it to



and I can have intenseworkout sessions withou

aching for the next few daysSo please try maintainingyour electrolyte balance

naturally, and experiencegreater comfort within youbody.

It may sometimes seemchallenging to make lifestylechanges, but it is for you

liver cleanse may push any



medications you are on out oyour system very quickly

which could exacerbate thecondition you are taking themfor. It’s essential that you ge

support and supervisionWork with a trusted healthcare professional who has athorough understanding oyour condition and

medications, and also wantto see you totally pain-free.



pecific Herbal

aid in detoxification by



facilitating the elimination owaste products, and they

prevent metabolic toxins fromaccumulating in the bodyClearing these toxins will ge

rid of inflammation.

Barberry ( Berberis

vulgaris) helps heal thestomach and brings strength

and tone to the digestivesystem. This makes it hardefor toxins to be absorbed into

the bloodstream. It also



stimulates the liver and helpsthe body flush out unwanted

chemicals.Barberry isn’t a very

pleasant-tasting herb

However, it appears to havethe best healing effects whenyou are able to taste itbitterness. So, for maximumtherapeutic benefit, take i

mixed with water rather thanstrong-tasting juices.

Blue flag ( Iris versicolor



releases toxic buildup in thelymphatic system and reduce

inflammation. It helps thelymph, fluid in your body thais responsible for immunity

to more freely circulate. Thetoxins are then processedthrough the liver and clearedfrom the bowel. This herbalso helps balance hydration

and works well for chronicskin complaints.

Burdock ( Arctium lappa

urinary tract. It’s effective forelieving aches and painstemming from gout. It may

Cleavers (Galium aparine

the body to clear toxins fromthe intracellular matrix. Manycleansing herbs will remove

toxins from the extracellulamatrix, the fluid thasurrounds your cellsCleavers, however, removewastes from inside the cell

and helps your body releasethem.This herb is extremely

cleansing. It can purify old



sources of pain that have beenwith you for years. However

it should also be approachedslowly and gently. If you’venever detoxed before, try

other methods before tryingcleavers. If your body iholding on to old metabolicwastes, you may experiencesymptoms and side effect

from your detox.

Echinacea ( Echinacea

angustifolia or Echinacea



urpurea) is one of the moswell-known herbs in the

world. It stimulates theimmune system and sendwhite blood cells on the hun

with its stinging leaves. Theblisters and rashes tha

ensued were thought to betoxins and wastes trying tocome out. In fact, the needle

on the leaves containhistamine, which creates arash on the skin. Histamine iresponsible for allergicresponses, so modern

medicine relies heavily onantihistamines to treaallergies. Interestingly, when

nettle is taken as a tincture o



tea, it relieves allergies andhay fever. That’s yet anothe

example of the wonders oMother Nature.

bowels, it reabsorbs them intothe bloodstream, which canlead to skin issues. It’s also

useful for arthritis that resultin painful, irritated skinaround the joints.

erbal Medicines for

the Liver



If nothing seems to heayour pain, consider doing a

liver cleanse. This organstores old toxins and energiethat might be preventing you

from healing. It does this asan act of service to ensure thetoxins don’t cause you greateharm. However, when toomuch toxicity accumulates, i

becomes an obstacle to curingpain. So if you’re tryingeverything possible to relieve

your discomfort, to no avail



then it’s time to think outsidethe box and focus on you

liver.When cleansing your liver

you’re best served if you ge

professional support. Theregular detox kits in healthfood stores and pharmaciesaren’t specific enough. Andremember, if you’re on othe

medications, a liver cleansewill try to clear them outThis may not be the case fo

you, but it’s always best to



double-check—remember, dono harm!

The liver is the primaryorgan of detoxificationToxins are processed and

metabolized by the liver sothey can be safely removedThere are two phases of livedetox. In the initial phaseenzymes bind to toxins to

make them water soluble(Often, many environmentatoxins are fat soluble, which

makes it harder for the body



to remove them.) Then, in thesecond phase, the toxins are

combined with organiccompounds and passed intobile. Your body then release

them through the bowels.The liver is one of the only

human organs that canregenerate. It can regrow toits original size if it’

damaged or partly removed insurgery. This is an amazingand loving gift from God

Care for your liver for a



happy, healthy life.The following herbs are

wonderful for livedetoxification.

have proven milk thistle’sprotective qualities, evenagainst poisons as strong asthe death-cap mushroomMany people take this herb

before drinking alcoholsaying that it makes it moredifficult to get drunk. Note

that while this herb does help

almonds, an avocado, osome yogurt.

Liver-CleansingDandelion Root Tea

A simple measure todetoxing is to enjoy



dandelion tea (sometimecalled dandelion coffee). I

nourishes your digestivesystem and triggers the liveto excrete all that it no longe

needs. It is made from theroot, as the leaf does verylittle for your liver.

This healing herbainfusion stimulates digestion

and encourages proper livefunction. It is a groundingherb that brings awarenes

back into the body. By



drinking a cup or two per dayyou can understand what you

body truly wants. Foexample, you may cravecarbohydrates if you are

deficient in B vitamin, ocrave sugar if you lackmagnesium. Your body isn’actually asking you for lownutrient carbohydrates in the

form of bread and pasta, buthe vitamins in whole grainand legumes.

The tea has a very earthy



flavor. You can adjust thetaste by using organic honey

agave syrup, or raw coconusyrup. Avoid adding refinedsugar, artificial sweeteners, o

milk to your infusion. Whilethis may be different from thetea you’re used to, think of ias medicine. The cup sittingin front of you will bring you

greater health and offeinsights into your body’needs.

All you have to do is add



one teaspoon of organic drieddandelion root to one cup o

boiling water. (You may alsouse roasted organic dandelionroot for a different flavor.

Allow it to steep for tenminutes before tasting, andadd natural sweetener ineeded.

I (Robert) don’t find the

taste all that appealing, buthe benefits are worth itPersonally, I prefer to let the

tea cool a little before I drink



it. That way it becomes awarm drink rather than a ho

tea. You could also add asqueeze of lemon, but encourage you to try i

without any additions first.

arasite Cleanse

Often, the triggers fo

undiagnosed pain are



parasites. These organismlive on or in a person’s body

getting their food at theexpense of the host andcausing a multitude of health

complaints. Commonsymptoms are digestivedisturbances and abdominacramping. If you’ve visitedanother country or a tropica

location, or if you’ve eatenraw or undercooked fish, it’possible that you have

contracted parasites.



Parasites can do a lot oharm that’s often missed

They not only siphon awaynutrients from the body bualso excrete toxic materials

into the bloodstream. Thican affect the nervous systemenergy levels, and mood. Thesymptoms of parasiteinfection can mimic many

other health concerns, such aunresponsive arthritis. If anarthritis sufferer finds no

relief with conventiona



treatments, the problem mayactually be parasites

Particular parasites canencase themselves within thesensitive fluid of your joints

causing damage and creatinginflammation that leads topain. They can also lodgethemselves in muscles andcreate a generalized pain.

Many people associateparasites with overseas travelbut they are rampant within

the developed world, too



There are over 2 million caseof giardiasis and over 1.5

million new cases otoxoplasmosis diagnosedeach year in the United

States. The Toxoplasmaondii parasite, which cause

toxoplasmosis, has beenlinked with more extrovertedand reckless behavior. The

Centers for Disease Controand Prevention has found alink between infection rate

and schizophrenia, as the



parasite appears to influencebehavior. Changes in

personality are alsoassociated with this parasitewith people’s personalitie

changing more the longethey remain infected.

There are two commonpractices when treatingparasites. The first is to use

high doses of herbs to removeall living organisms. This iusually done for about a

week. The second method is



to take smaller amounts of theherbal medicines for longer

so that you target the livingparasites as well as any eggsWe feel that a combination o

the two is the most effectiveapproach, starting with a highdose, then reducing after aweek and continuingtreatment for a month.

It’s best to get supporfrom a trusted practitionerYour naturopath or herbalis

will be able to formulate a



personalized mixture for youThere are also some

wonderful tablet and capsulepreparations that combinehigh levels of the following

herbs. You may be able tofind some in your locahealth-food store, but youpractitioner might be able tosupply something a little

stronger.

Black walnut ( Juglans

nigra) is great for removing



intestinal worms.

Clove (Syzygiumaromaticum) is the perfecherb for parasite cleansing, a

it covers so many bases. Itargets two phases of theparasite life cycle by riddingthe body of the livingorganisms and penetrating the

egg coatings. It’s highlyeffective at removingstubborn parasites, breaking

through the walls that some



organisms protect themselvewithin.

Goldenseal ( Hydrastis

canadensis) has the ability to

remove parasites only at highconcentrations. The majohealing benefit of this herb ito repair the lining of youdigestive system. I

strengthens your stomach andbowels so toxic materialcannot reach you

bloodstream. It should form



part of your cleanse, but ican be left until the end, when

the parasites have beenremoved.

Myrrh (Commiphoramolmol ) tastes terrible but igreat for clearing parasitesIt’s best used in high dosesfor short periods of time.

Wormwood ( Artemisia

absinthium) , as the name

suggests, is used for treating



worms and other intestinaparasites. As a sensitive

person, you may find you canonly tolerate small amountof this herb. Respected

herbalist Matthew Woodsuggests that only one drop othe tincture be used once otwice a week.

Chinese wormwood

(Artemisia annua) is usuallybetter tolerated. It ispecifically used fo

travelers’ diarrhea, which is



likely the result of parasiteinfection.

emoving Toxinsrom Your Life

All your efforts to detox

will ultimately be futile if youunknowingly continue puttingtoxins into your body



Carefully consider whethethe following substances have

a place in your healthylifestyle.

Fluoride

Fluoride is a mineral that isadded to most toothpastes awell as the drinking water o

many cities, with the promise



that it helps prevent toothdecay. However, when

comparing data fromcountries that havefluoridated water and those

that don’t, there’s nodifference in the occurrenceof decay. Today, activists aredemanding that their locawater districts stop adding

fluoride into the water supplysaying it is a toxic heavymetal by-product of the

phosphate fertilizer industry.



If you have triedeverything and your pain

persists, consider whetheyou need to reduce youexposure to fluoride. It is a

toxin that is known toaccumulate in the body andcause damage to younervous system. It can createoint pain and interfere with

thyroid function. It may evenbe a mutagen, which isomething that causes genetic

damage that may lead to



cancer. Some studies suggesthat fluoride negatively

affects brain developmentand others have linked lowlevels of intelligence with

higher levels of fluoride.Toothpaste tubes bea

warning labels that suggescalling poison control if toomuch is swallowed. Each

year, numerous childrendevelop gastrointestinaissues due to the fluoride

they’ve ingested via



toothpaste. Interestingly, theamount of fluoride in a pea

size amount of toothpaste isimilar to that contained in acup of tap water in mos

areas. On the one hand, we’retold to drink it; on the otherwe’re told to contact thepoison hotline.

For your oral hygiene, we

highly suggest that youswitch to natural, chemicalfree, fluoride-free toothpastes

that don’t contain



carrageenan. (Carrageenan ia common food additive

made from algae or seaweedthat’s used as a binderthickener, and stabilizer

which can contribute toinflammation.) You can alsomake your own toothpastefrom organic coconut oilfood-grade peppermint oil

and pure baking soda. Theseingredients are readilyavailable at health-food

stores. Simply mix them to



suit your own taste levelsand use as you would

ordinary toothpaste.Learn where your water i

coming from and if i

contains fluoride bycontacting your local wateauthority. You can alsopurchase testing kits onlineThe best way to remove

fluoride from water ithrough distillation or reverseosmosis; you can have a

reverse-osmosis filtration



system fitted in your homewhich would be an

investment in your healthAfter all, even if you don’drink tap water, if the wate

you are using to shower andbathe in contains fluoride, imay still be affecting youhealth and well-being.

The Dangers of BPA



BPA, short for bisphenoA, is a hormone-disrupting

compound that has beenlinked to many healthconcerns, including hormona

imbalances, liveabnormalities, and poor braindevelopment in infants. Imay contribute to painfuconditions such as diabetes

obesity, breast cancer, heardisease, and infertility.BPA is often in plastics

including water bottles, food



containers, and the lining ocanned goods, because i

helps make them strongerAlways look for BPA-freeproducts whenever you

purchase plastics or cannedgoods, such as the brandAmy’s Kitchen, whichguarantees that their productare free from this compound.

Plastic bottles containingBPA leach the chemical intotheir contents, especially

when heated, such as in a ho



car or a grocery store’s warmstoreroom. So it is best to

enjoy your water in glass ostainless steel containers. Werecommend buying drinking

water in glass rather thanplastic bottles. Many storecarry a selection of brandssuch as Voss.

Even your toothbrush

needs to be considered, ayou’re putting this into youmouth two or three time

daily. The brand Preserve



available for sale online andin health-food stores, is BPA

free. (Preserve also has arecycling program in whichyou may mail in your old

toothbrushes and receivecredit toward their productsthey use the materials tomanufacture newtoothbrushes.)



etox from Unhealthy

elationships

You may find the need torelease toxic relationships inorder to heal pain. I (Robert

had a patient who complainedof severe back pain. She wain extreme discomfort when

she had to sit in a car. treated her three times, andwhile she saw a sligh



improvement, the majority othe pain wasn’t shifting.

intuitively felt that part of thepain was connected to hehusband, but when

questioned her about theirelationship, she quickly shudown the topic. I let it go andtrusted that her angels wouldshow her the answer.

The following week shemet up with some friends foan outing, and she was very

excited about the trip. She



would have to be in a car foover two hours, and while

usually she would be inagony after 15 minutes, hepain was totally absent! She

had a completely comfortableand relaxing journey andenjoyed a wonderful timewith her friends.

However, when thi

woman got in the car to gohome, her pain began toreturn. The closer she got to

home, the worse the pain



became. At her nexappointment, she told me tha

she noticed her pain waworse the closer she got toher husband. She came to thi

conclusion with the help oangels showing her the way.

We discussed her treatmenoptions and did some healingsurrounding her relationship

She was holding on to oldinsecurities and resentment oher husband’s frequent gol

trips. By releasing those



thoughts and feelings, shefound that her pain levels

diminished and herelationship strengthened.

Think about the people you

often surround yourself withDo you commonly findyourself feeling defensiveupset, or criticized when youare with a particular person?

Gently remove this person’toxic energy from your lifeand surround yourself with

more joyful, uplifting people



You will almost certainly feeimmediate relief in you

body.

rescribe a Vacation

and Schedule in Fun

After you have removedharmful substances from youbody and toxic relationship



from your life, think abouwhat you want to replace

them with. Taking some timeto relax—whether it’s acouple of days or a couple o

weeks—can make a world odifference. Indeed, manypeople find their paindisappears when on vacationIt’s only when they return

home and slip into old habitthat their pain levels increaseSo maybe now is the

perfect time for you to take a



vacation. You might havefights with your ego voice

about reasons not to go, buthis could be the perfecsolution for your health

Imagine what it would feelike to get away from it all foust the weekend. If thi

vision makes you feerelaxed, that is confirmation

that now is the time. Don’delay your healing byworrying about how you’re

going to make it happen. I



your angels think that a breakis the best choice for you

then the funds andarrangements will fall intoplace.

It is also important that youmake joy a regular part oyour life, not just somethingthat you do while onvacation. When did you las

take some time to indulge ahobby? If you struggle tothink of what interests you

have, then it shows tha



you’ve lost touch with a parof yourself! So take a

moment now to think of whawould bring you peace andtranquillity. Perhaps you

enjoy gardening, sewingreading, walking, paintingdancing—anything! You’respecial and unique, and youneeds are unlike anyone

else’s on Earth. We musalways honor ouindividuality, with treatmen

as much as with life.



Now schedule time fothese activities every week

They shouldn’t be somethingyou do only occasionallyinstead, make them a part o

your routine. Wouldn’t youfeel better if you honoredyourself by doing the thingyou love more often? Ocourse you would.

Call upon your angels bysaying:

“Angels, please give me the



time, money, transportation,

and anything else I need to

spend time doing the things Ilove. I know it will help my

health and allow my light to

shine more brightly. Thank you.”



CHAPTER SEVEN

INCORPORATINGEXERCISE INTO

YOUR LIFE



Our bodies are designed tomove. If you live a sedentary

life, your muscles, joints, andbones begin to suffer. Iyou’ve been enduring chronic

pain, then you’ll likely havereduced the amount youexercise and how often youparticipate in other activitiesIt can feel like there’s a big

red stop sign in front of youPain halts your progress andlimits your abilities…if you

let it!



Engaging in gentlemovements allows your body

to find its perfect state obalance. Without it, you canbecome tense and stressed

and experience morediscomfort than usual. Thevoice of pain will tell you thayou must rest and avoidmovement at all costs. In

some situations this is goodadvice; however, the majorityof the time, this puts you

healing on hold.



Archangel Raphael canhelp you in your journey by

giving you motivation toexercise. As we mentionedearlier, you can do far more

for your health by improvingyour diet than by working oualone. However, as youvitality improves and youlisten to your inner guidance

you’ll naturally seek moremovement. You’ll want toexercise because it make

your body feel so good



Activity causes your body torelease endorphins, those

happy hormones that uplifyour soul. Daily exercise canalso help you clear through

depression, fatigue, andfeelings of loneliness.

Sometimes you mayreceive healing guidancewhen exercising. Fo

example, one of our readersKevin Hunter, enjoyedworking out and feeling the

benefits in his body and





out to Archangel Raphaelwho guided him to stop

walking and to rub his handtogether. As Kevin did so, heclairvoyantly saw sparks o

emerald-green lighemanating between hifingers. Raphael told him toallow his hand to hover ovehis pain. Kevin was amazed

to see the emerald-green lighrush out of his hand into hisfoot.

When Kevin resumed



walking, there was no morepain! He began slowly

increasing his pace, and aftea few minutes, he was back tohis initial speed with no more

discomfort. He was able toheal completely thanks to hisintuition and the angels.

Gentle Reminders to

ove



Many of my (Robert’sclients complain of backache

One thing I teach themwhich works miracles, is toset movement reminders on

their phone. (After all, iseems that nowadays, peoplerarely go five secondseparated from their phonelet’s use this dependency to

our advantage!) Set alarms togo off every two hours. Thesewill be your cues to get up

drink some water, and take a



short walk.It is easy to become so

engrossed in your work thayou totally lose track of thetime. Many have had the

experience of working fowhat seems to be a shorperiod, only to look up andrealize it has become darkoutside. Time can get away

from you when you’re in acreative flow. It’s importanto have an outside force tha

will protect you and you



body. You don’t need tomove for too long—five

minutes is fine. Then you canget back to work. You’ll findthat your body will thank you

by giving you new ideasinspiration, and enoughenergy to last two more houruntil your next reminder.

When you’re home and no

working, the alarms don’need to stop! If you tend tozone out on the couch, then

please set reminders for these



times of the day, too. Sofashave even less support fo

your sensitive spine than achair, and can be so terriblefor your back. Be sure to

gently move around everycouple of hours, and you’lnotice a difference in youbody’s state of ease.

Finding the Right



ctivity for You

Make workouts an activitythat you enjoy. Find an

exercise or routine that suityour individual needs. Youmight prefer to work oualone, using just your bodyweight or free weights. You

may find the energy of othermotivating, and attempclasses at the gym or othe

group activities. Think abou



whether you’d prefer toexercise indoors or engage in

an outdoor activity. If you’reindoors, what are you lookingat—a boring wall or a lovely

view of the ocean? All othese things will make adramatic difference to youexperience.

The location of your pain

and its severity wildetermine what activities youcan and cannot do. If you are

very limited, please speak to



your care provider about thesafest way to start exercising

It is always best to geprofessional advice abouwhat is optimal for your body

so you do not accidentally dodamage. Remember, yougoal is a flexible, happypain-free body, so it is wise totake the time solicit exper

advice.If you are sedentary, pleasedo not feel that you need to

start full steam. An easy walk



is more than enough to geyour blood flowing. (There’s

a funny, yet true, saying thaapplies here: “No matter howslow you’re going, you’re

still running laps around thepeople on the couch.”) Asyou walk, you’re relying onyour hips and pelvis to keepyou upright. Your muscle

activate, and your bodycorrects itself on a minutescale with each movement

Each step you take is a step



closer to a pain-free body.It is also important not to

forget your flexibility. Peopleoften focus upon strengthtraining and cardiovascula

exercises, overlooking thiincredibly important aspect tofitness. When you are tighand inflexible, your muscleare more likely to strain and

tear. Stretching loosens themuscle fibers and gives youbody a wider range o

motion. Try to touch you



toes—if you can’t, then ishows that your hamstring

are too tight. Engage in gentlestretches, or take a beginningyoga class, to relax you

muscles; almost instantlyyou will find that you canreach farther.

One of the best ways toalleviate pain is through

strengthening your core—your back and abdominamuscles. Time and time

again, chronic back pain i



linked with poor corestrength. If your abdomina

muscles are weak, then youspine and pelvis are moreinclined to tilt and unbalance

You don’t need a six-packbut internal strength iessential for a happy, painfree back. The followingactivities are wonderful way

to start:

— Tai chi is a form o

exercise from China tha



involves very gentlemovements. It is said that

when done correctly, you areworking every muscle withinyour body. Your moves are

slow yet very deliberateallowing your joints to glidefrom position to position. Tachi slowly stretches youmuscles, increases you

flexibility, and helps improveyour balance. Over the yearsit has been found to have

many health benefits and to



help such conditions asarthritis, fatigue, anxiety

pain, poor posture, stress, andtension.

Tai chi is also a lovely

spiritual practice with threeaspects: health, meditationand martial arts. Eachmovement is a slowed-downself-defense technique. Ta

chi activates the healingmeridians of the body tocirculate chi, or life force

This creates a flow of poten



healing energy that seeks outand restores function to, area

of imbalance.

— Yoga is anothe

wonderful exercise thaincorporates spirituality. Youlearn to connect with youbreath and find a sense ooneness while also holding

your body in speciapositions, known as asanas

for extended periods of time

Don’t worry; you don’t need



to be a gymnast ocontortionist. There are many

beginner classes in gyms andstudios, as well as booksYouTube videos, and DVD

you can work with at homeHaving a yoga teacheensures that you’re safely andcorrectly performing thestretches. Over time you

flexibility will improve, andyou’ll be able to do deepeand more challenging asanas.



— Pilates is a conditioningroutine that uses stretches and

repetition to increaseflexibility, strength, andendurance. It emphasize

muscle control andstrengthening your coreDon’t be deceived, as thesimple-looking exercises arehighly effective and can stil

make you sweat! SomePilates studios have weightedmachines to add an extra

dimension to your practice.



The Benefits of

xercise

Even in traumaticpotentially life-threateningaccidents, a fit and healthy

body is more adapted to copewith pain. Rachel Racklyefhad enjoyed a fulfilling 13

year career as a gyminstructor when her lifesuddenly took a turn on July



25, 2010. That’s when thiavid horse lover fell from he

horse; she knew immediatelythat she was injured. She alsoknew, due to her many year

of training, that holding stilwas her best choice.

Rachel was rushed to thehospital, where it warevealed how severely she

had been hurt. She hadfractured her C7, T1, T2, T3T4, and T5 vertebrae—from

the base of her neck to



midway down her back. Iwas a horrifying discovery

and depressing thoughtrushed through her mind. Shewondered, Will I walk again?

Will I ever ride my horseagain? Will I ever teach a

the gym again?

Miraculously Rachel stilhad full sensation in he

body. No nerve damageappeared to have taken placeDoctors told her that at some

point in the future, she would



be able to do the things sheloved again. However, to ge

there, she had to heal not onlyher spine but also heremotions. Thankfully, Rache

was surrounded by supportiveand uplifting people. Shediscovered who really caredand who her true friendwere. The gym told her tha

her job was secure; everyoneust wanted to see her heal.The days immediately

following Rachel’s acciden



were very painful. She wasbruised, battered, and

emotionally exhausted. Themoments she had alone in thehospital, she spent writing in

her journal. Not everythingshe jotted down made sensebut it didn’t need to. It waher way of releasing thepressure and pain from inside

her head. It was a particulachallenge for Rachel to befitted for a back brace and

instructed to wear it for fou



months. To help herself copeshe named the brace

“Bertha.”When she was forced to

stop and rest, she took the

time to communicate with heangels. She called on themfor Divine assistance andprayed for healingBeautifully, Rachel noticed

little signs that let her knowher prayers were being heard.In the months tha

followed, the pain wa



terrible, and Rachel found idifficult to get comfortable

She took pharmaceutical painmedication to take the edgeoff, but was shocked by how

quickly the pain came backwhenever she tried to reduceher dosage. She found thitime to be sad andchallenging, because she

didn’t like being on all thosedrugs and wished the painwould just go away.

Finally, the time came fo



“Bertha” to be taken off. Iwas then that Rache

discovered that her lovingfamily, supportive friendsand guiding angels were he

best pain relief. She was ableto clear through self-limitingbeliefs and let her true selshine through. The more shefocused on the things she wa

grateful for in her life, themore her discomfordecreased. Today Rachel i

fully healed and pain-free.



Rachel is able to walkagain, ride horses again, and

even teach at the gym againShe has a new outlook on lifeand realizes that when things

seem tough, you just have totake it one step at a timeEvery year, on theanniversary of her accidentshe does something

challenging. She pusheherself in new ways to showthe universe she is grateful to

be alive and wants to



experience as much of thislife as possible.

Having a balanced mind inecessary—and coupled witha balanced physique, you

have a winning combinationAlison Scambary, a fitnesinstructor for 15 years, knew

and understood theimportance of a strong andhealthy body. For years she



had encouraged others toreach their fitness goals

respecting the individuaneeds of each client. She hada passion for exercise and

made it a part of her everydaylife, often taking weekendholidays with her husband tochallenge themselves withactivities such as mountain

biking. On one such tripAlison gained a newperspective on the importance

of fitness.



In September 2013, Alisonand her husband were biking

when she took a bad fall anddislocated her shoulder. Thepain was excruciating! Due to

her training, she knew thamoving her arm would onlymake matters worse, so sheust tried to carefully hold

herself in a comfortable

position. An ambulancearrived and took her to thehospital, where she

unfortunately had to wai



with a dislocated shoulder foan exhausting six hours

Alison took somepharmaceutical medication totake the edge off what she

described as one of the mospainful things she had eveexperienced. Once heshoulder was safely back inplace, she was free to go

home.Alison discovered that sheused her arms for more task

than she ever realized, furthe



reinforcing for her theimportance of a fully

functioning, healthy bodyTender shoulder or nothowever, she couldn’t be kep

from exercising! Sheunderstood that fitness leveldrop rapidly without regulaactivity, and she didn’t wanto lose the results of all he

hard work. She started withstationary cycling, working aa comfortable pace to avoid

pain. Movement helps the



body heal from injuries, andthe endorphins released

during exercise keep mooduplifted. Alison knew that ishe became sedentary, i

could affect her positivenature—and she wasn’willing to lose that!

When Alison began seeinga physical therapist, the

person told her that herecovery time was veryimpressive; she was healing

rapidly and had gained back a



great deal of her range andflexibility. The therapist pu

this down to Alison’commitment to her health andfitness.

With regular exercise, youbody becomes more adaptedto healing. The tone of you

muscles and your corestrength accelerate thehealing response. You



needn’t turn into a personatrainer or bodybuilder, bu

physical fitness can help takeyour pain away. Release anythoughts that say you can’t—

give it a try. Start slowly, andyou will see thetransformation taking placeover time.



CHAPTER EIGHT

PHYSICALTHERAPIES AND

HEALINGMETHODS



You can achieve healing inmiraculous ways. Sometime

this occurs on its own; othetimes it involves workingwith a trusted practitione

who can guide you.When we evaluate a

treatment, we must be awareof its underlying philosophySome therapies focus on

managing symptoms rathe



than addressing the truecause. We feel that for a

complete healing, you need toaddress the source. Althoughsymptom alleviation is

important, please understandthat if you ignore what icreating the problem, it wilresurface again and againMany healers will begin by

alleviating your most pressingsymptoms. However, as youpain levels decrease, the

balance of treatment should



change, as your healer putsmore focus on the underlying

triggers.In this chapter, we wil

explain some of the therapies

with which we haveexperience, including thosethat our clients have given ufeedback upon. However, themost important thing to

consider when you seek ahealing modality for yourselis your own intuition. As you

read through the following



options, let your Higher Seltell you which would be righ

for you.Meditate for a moment on

the subheads, even before

reading the content. Listen towhat your inner voice saybefore you take in theinformation. Let this give youideas for the types o

treatment that might be besfor you. As you read, you’lget further confirmation on

whether it’s the right path fo



you to follow.

Therapeutic Packs for

ain

Too often we reach for aheat pack or hot water bottle

for comfort and relief. Whenthe warmth is present, it doemake the pain feel better, bu



is it actually doing anythinguseful? You’ll notice that the

pain usually comes back soonafter removing the heat. Imasks your symptoms rathe

than healing the situationLet’s investigate why.

Heat can attract more heatWhen you remove the sourceof the warmth, the surface

cools down rapidly, but theheat can remain trappedwithin the area. This create

inflammation, and then the



pain returns. The suddentemperature change can also

shock the muscles and triggea spasm.

A similar process happen

with ice packs, in which thecold causes your vessels toconstrict, pushing blood awayfrom the area. This can be avaluable resource for acute

injuries, because you don’want to give the inflammationa chance to take hold. Using a

cold pack often, however



such as you would with achronic injury, will severely

restrict the circulation in thearea. Once the ice is removedthe blood rushes back in and

pools there, leading to heaand inflammation. So, whileyou may find initial relief, thepain quickly reappears whenyou take away the ice pack.

A more balanced solutionthan either a hot or ice pack ia cool pack. This involve

placing a wheat pack, which



is commonly heated in themicrowave, in the fridge

instead. It must stay there foa minimum of four hours toadequately chill. Then you

can remove the pack from thefridge and apply it to youarea of discomfort. You wilinstantly feel a cool sensationand your muscles will relax

as tension is released. Thenwhen you remove the coopack, the pain stays away.

You can also use the



healing power of the earth bymaking a warm sea-salt pack

Simply place one cup of finegrain Celtic, AtlanticHimalayan, or Dead Sea sal

into a bowl. (If you purchasecoarse salt, just crush it up alittle in your blender first.

ext, pour in a tablespoon oboiling water, and mix the

salt around until everything iust moistened. The mixtureshould stay together when

you take a handful, but be



moist enough that you canstill feel some warmth.

Sit or lie in a comfortableposition, and place a goodamount of the salt on the

afflicted area. If the grainrefuse to stay in place, youcan bandage them intoposition. As the warmthenters your skin, you

muscles will relax. Minuteamounts of the salt will beabsorbed by your skin, giving

you micronutrients that help



release inflammation. Leavethe salt in place for up to one

hour. When you’re finishedyou can discard the salt andhave a warm shower or bath.

For additional antiinflammatory benefits, add 10drops of peppermint essentiaoil to the salt. If you noticeany skin irritations (eithe

with or without thepeppermint oil), discontinueuse and consult a health-care

professional.



ssential Oils That

eal Pain

Essential oils areconcentrates from flowersleaves, seeds, bark, or fruit

of different plants. They arepotent remedies for healingand have both a physical and

spiritual application. Inaddition, each oil transcendthe physical world and



combines with your energyfor a truly powerful healing

While each will treat anumber of physicacomplaints, in this book we

focus on their applications inpain relief.

Essential oils haven’t oftenbeen studied for their abilityto heal pain. However, some

researchers are looking at theuse of aromatherapy as anadjunct to conventiona

medical treatment. While



there are suggestions thaessential oils can enhance the

effects of other treatmentsmany say that the relaxationqualities alone are enough to

help someone with chronicpain. When the mind isrelaxed, our perception opain is different. The morewe relax and let go, the les

we focus on chronic pain.A little is known about thecompounds in each oil. We

must consider the thousands



of case studies frompractitioners that show a

definite improvement whenusing essential oils. Thesepotent plant remedies heal.

The major issue whenusing essential oils is qualityYou must find high-qualitybrands to get a good resultUnfortunately, there are many

essential oils on the markethat are diluted or, evenworse, synthetic. Look fo

100 percent pure essentia



oils. Sometimes moreexpensive oils, such as rose

will be diluted in jojoba oilThis is perfectly fine as longas you’re aware of it. Be

cautious, as some brands donot clearly label theiproducts, and you won’t besure if the contents are pure.

The more expensive oil

are often the better-qualityones. However, please don’rush out and buy the pricies

bottles you can find withou



doing your research on themanufacturer first. It would

also be wise to avoidcompanies that rely onmultilevel marketing

strategies, as the energyimpacts the quality of the oil.

The following oils are themost common ones used fopain relief.



Peppermint

Peppermint oil naturallycontains menthol, which i

the active ingredient in manytopical gels and sprays fopain relief because of itlocalized anestheticproperties. Peppermint oi

causes blood vessels to dilateso you may get some initiaredness as it kicks in

Afterward, your circulation



will improve and helpful cellwill be able to repair any

damage, which can trigger acascade of healing reactions.

Try peppermint oil for sore

muscles, joints, and backsApply 3 drops to an organiccotton ball, and rub onto thetender area. If you experienceexcessive skin irritation

discontinue use immediatelyand wipe away with a warmwet cloth.

In 2002, The Clinica



ournal of Pain published astudy in which peppermint oi

was used to treat nerve painIn this case, a 76-year-oldwoman had terrible nerve

pain after a viral infectionStandard treatments were noworking, so the physiciantried peppermint oil. Thepatient was instructed to

apply neat (or straightpeppermint oil onto theaffected areas. She noticed

almost immediate relief, and



they found the analgesicaction lasted 4 to 6 hours

Two months later, she wastill using the oil and hadonly very minor side effects

This led the team to considefurther research into the useof peppermint oil.

Lavender



Lavender oil is well knownfor its ability to calm and

relax. Many people wilinhale this familiar fragranceto help with sleep or to soothe

anxiety. However, lavendeoil is also excellent arelaxing muscles. The moreyour mind is quieted, the lesangry your body feels. This i

why healing your physicapain requires that we also payattention to your mind.

Lavender oil clears you



third-eye chakra, awakeningyour spiritual sight. It help

you to be simultaneouslystrong and sensitive. You’lbe aware of energies

feelings, and sensations, buthey won’t overwhelm youInstead you will be in controof the situation.

You hold the key to you

simply a matter of releasing



Lavender helps you to let goIts scent relaxes your mind

and your muscles. Applying afew drops to your neck andshoulders will penetrate the

tension and release muscleaches as the aroma toucheyour soul and balances youmind. The angels say it’s likewatching an ice cube melt—

what was once hard andunyielding transforms into afree-flowing, flexible state.

Apply a drop or two o



lavender oil to your templeto ease a headache. It’

particularly good for tensionheadaches, but will heal anykind. Gently massage the oi

into your temples and aroundthe back of your neck, righup to the occiput (the areawhere your neck muscleattach to your skull). Within

minutes, your headache wildisappear.



Chamomile

There are two types ochamomile: Roman and

German. We prefer the use oGerman chamomile becauseit’s been more widelyresearched and has a healingvibration.

The oil of Germanchamomile is blue, which iconnected with the throa

chakra. This is your center o



communication and speakingyour truth. You needn’t be

afraid of speaking up. Theangels give you messages thathey want you to convey. I

can be frightening to speak toothers about sensitive topicsBut if you’re being urged todo so, healing will take placePerhaps part of your purpose

is to show people a differenview, or maybe you will saythe perfect words to comfort a

situation. You won’t know



until you speak up. Alway

trust that these thoughts and

feeling are coming from youHigher Self and the angelsYou’re being given the gift o

clear communication!Chamomile ease

inflammation, pain, andtension. Azulene, thecompound that gives the oi

its distinctive color, has antiinflammatory and skinhealing properties. However

like all plant medicines, no



single chemical is doing althe work. All the parts work

in unison to create awonderfully balanced healingsymphony.

Apply three or four dropof German chamomile to thearea of discomfort. If you gea little on your hands, take amoment to inhale the

fragrance. The aromatranscends the physical anduplifts your soul. Let yoursel

have that moment o



painlessness.

Wintergreen

This oil has a high

concentration of methysalicylate, which contains the

same component that givesaspirin its pain-relievingeffect. Many people have

found success with this oil





Ways to Work with

ealing Oils

All of the oils mentionedhere can be safely applieddirectly to the skin. Some

oils, however, are meant to beused only through certainmethods, so always consul

the directions or a qualifiedprofessional. If you noticeany irritation, even with an



oil that you have usedsuccessfully before

discontinue use and wipe thearea clean.

Diffusers

You might want to invesin an aromatherapy diffuserwhich will send tiny

molecules of these healing



oils into the air. As you inhalethe fragrance, your mind and

body will be uplifted. Youcan start the diffuser whenyou get home after a busy

day, and allow yourself tounwind. Remember tharelaxation is a very importankey in your pain-free life.

Carriers



A carrier dilutes essentiaoils to make them more

tolerable to your skin. Withpure oils, a little goes a longway. You can add 40 drops o

any essential oil to 1 ounce(30 ml/2 tablespoons) of aneutral oil such as organiccoconut or olive oil.

Coconut oil is solid a

room temperature, so to makea soothing rub, warm 2tablespoons in a smal

saucepan on the lowes



possible heat. Once meltedadd 40 drops of your desired

essential oils, then pour themixture into a smallheatproof jar. Glass jars work

well for this, and you canoften purchase small jarfrom your health-food storeAfter the oil has cooled andset into a semisolid, cap i

tightly. Then, whenever youneed it, take a small amounof the ointment and gently

massage it into the painfu



area. A little will go a longway, because the solid oi

melts once it warms to youbody temperature. If there islittle improvement after a few

days, you can add moreessential oils by melting youbatch again.

To make our favorite PainRelieving Coconut Rub

follow the above instructionwith 1 tablespoon of organiccoconut oil, 20 drop

peppermint oil, 15 drop



lavender oil, and 10 dropGerman chamomile oil.

Soothing RelaxationBaths

An aromatherapy bath

spreads the inviting scent othe oils through the room andallows small concentrations



to be absorbed into your skinYou’ll step out of the bath

feeling wonderfullycomfortable, relaxed, andhappy.

Since oil and water don’mix, we can’t just sprinkle oiin the bathtub. Instead, add 15drops of essential oils into acup of organic apple cide

vinegar. The vinegar will helpdissolve the oils, as well aadd its own healing benefit

for your body. You may also



be guided to include somenatural sea salts to the wate

to further purify your energyand soothe your muscles

atural sea salt contains a

variety of healingmicrominerals, such amagnesium. Epsom salts canalso be like a therapeuticmassage for sore muscles.

For a healing experiencesprinkle ½ cup natural seasalt and ½ cup Epsom salt

into your bathwater. Mix 2



drops of peppermint, 10 dropof chamomile, and 3 drops o

lavender oil to 1 cup oorganic apple cider vinegarthen add to your bath. Sti

until everything is dissolvedthen sit back and relaxYou’ll feel the tensionleaving your body within 15minutes. Take a moment to

visualize your body releasingits pain. See it as a darkenergy being drawn out into

the water, with no way for i



to return. When you pull theplug to drain the water

reaffirm the release of youpain.

anual Therapies toeal Pain

A 2013 study investigatedthe prevalence of pain in



Australians. For those whosaw a doctor, 19.2 percen

suffered from chronic painmost commonly osteoarthritiand backaches. More than 86

percent of patients usedmedication for it, and onethird were also seekingnonpharmaceutical methodof relief.

Natural therapies andalternative medicines areexcellent remedies for pain

There are some intervention



that aren’t completelyunderstood by modern

science; however, the simplefact is that they work. Thosewho try them commonly

report a reduction in theidiscomfort and inflammationEven though we may nofully understand themechanisms, it would be

ignorant to dismiss thesemodalities entirely.Some therapies have gotten

a bad rap over the years, bu



many are very powerful whendone correctly. However, it i

usually the rare, unfortunateexperiences that get publicattention. Sadly, the media

focuses on negativityshowing us horrible thinghappening around the worldand casting many healers inan unfavorable light. Yet the

majority of people arewonderful and passionateand intend nothing but good

for others.



Whenever you see a storyabout a fraudulent healer

always check the storyfurther. You’ll often find thathe person wasn’t a qualified

member of his or her allegedprofession at all. This is whyit is so important to alwaycheck the credentials of youtherapists. Professiona

healing associations requirethat their members adhere tocertain ethical standards

Often, they also mandate a



certain amount of continuingprofessional education so

therapists can apply newskills and the most up-to-dateinformation in their practice.

The following are some othe best therapies toincorporate into your pathtoward wellness.

Massage



During a massage, atherapist warms your muscle

and releases tension fromyour body. It is easy to feel apeace and surrender to the

moment. This can be anexcellent method for soothingtension, back pain, and neckand shoulder complaintsWhen deciding which style to

try, keep in mind that eachwas designed for a differenpurpose. Two of the mos

common are Swedish and



remedial.

— Swedish massage iwonderfully relaxing. It usea reasonable amount o

pressure, just enough so thathe muscles respond. Thetherapist applies flowingrhythmic movementsallowing both your body and

mind to release stress andtension. You can let go andmelt into the healing table.

The angels describe



Swedish massage as like anaura dance. Practitioners

work with your energy amuch as they work with youphysical body, so it’

important to have a happyhigh-energy therapist. Youdon’t need someone sendinganger or negativity into you.

— Remedial massagesuch as deep-tissue massageis usually what people ask fo

when they’re in pain. It i



important to note that it mayinitially cause even more

discomfort. Therapists usefirm pressure and focus onisolating specific muscle

rather than being concernedwith general relaxation, as ina Swedish massage. Theybegin by warming thesurrounding tissues, then

follow their fingers to the siteof your pain, concentrating onthe muscle causing the

problem. They target the



trigger points that run througheach muscle, allowing it to

release. Given that they aremassaging the specific area opain, you can be very

uncomfortable until youbody lets go.

I (Robert) learned Swedishand remedial massage as parof my naturopathy degree

which gave me insight intoboth these therapies. As parof training, we had to

complete quite a few hours o



practical clinic work in whicha supervisor monitored us a

we worked on clients. Clientswould come in and describetheir complaint, then we

would get to it.At this point, I’d been

working on my spiritualityfor many years and hadlearned how to tune in to the

body. I discovered that could feel when clientsmuscles released thei

tension, which was usually



after 15 to 20 minutes owork. Unfortunately, I wa

expected to keep massagingfor the remainder of the hourlong appointment, and as

continued, I could feel theareas under my fingergetting irritated again. By theend of the session, those poomuscles were tense again.

conveyed this feeling to mysupervisors, but they didn’heed my warnings.

It is easy to cause yoursel



more harm if you ignore thesignals given by your body

An hour-long massage can bea luxurious treat, but onlywhen the work is balanced

We feel that the two stylework best together—remediamassage until the musclereleases, then gentlerhythmic Swedish stroke

through the rest of the body.This is why it is importanto research your massage

practitioner first and ask if he



or she works on an intuitivelevel. You may be surprised

to find that many populatherapists are highly spiritualSome might keep this a secre

in order to not deter potentiaclients, but they will sooncome to understand that theispirituality is the precisereason you’re being guided to

them. Also ask if they usearomatherapy during themassage. This is a nice bonus

as it gets your senses going



on a physical, emotional, andspiritual level. Your body let

go of tension as you inhalethe delicate perfume from thehealing essential oils. Some

practitioners will createcustom blends for youparticular needs.

Bowen Therapy



Developed in AustraliaBowen therapy is a subtle

noninvasive, therapeutic formof bodywork that has gainedpopularity all around the

world. It began with TomBowen’s work on people withpain. He would apply gentlepressure or a small rollingmovement at specific areas

following his intuitiveguidance. Most patients felalmost immediate relief

Word spread, and people



traveled great distances to seehim. He reported seeing 280

patients per week in 1973and in 1976 he treatedapproximately 13,000

patients. These astonishingnumbers are the perfectestament to Bowen’intuitive guidance, showingthat he was healing at a deep

level. After many years osuccessful practice, he beganto teach his methods, and

after his passing in 1982, hi



technique lived on as Bowentherapy.

During a Bowen treatmentyour therapist will ensure thayou feel relaxed and safe

before beginning to apply asequence of slight movementat specific areas of your bodyThese manipulations triggehealing reactions; an

adjustment at one poincauses the vibration to movethrough the entire length o

the muscle, rather like



flicking the string on a guitarThis is why a practitione

often works on areas othethan where you feel the pain.

An unusual aspect of a

Bowen treatment is thatherapists will engage in ashort pause betweenmovements, which allowyour body to really absorb the

messages that they have senthrough. It is best not tooverload your system with

too many messages at once



and this break allowpractitioners to see how you

body responds to each slighadjustment. Then they canassess what move to make

next, or whether the bodyshould be allowed tocontinuing balancing itself alittle longer.

Bowen therapy correct

physical imbalances andutilizes muscle memory tobring your body back to

harmony. It starts a cascade



of healing responses thacontinue working up to 48

hours later. So while you maynot notice anythingimmediately after a session

you will soon after. Clientsoften feel some improvemenright away, then continuefeeling better and better as theday continues. Only four o

five treatments are needed inmany cases, and somecomplaints are healed after a

single session.



Ask practitioners how theywork before you make you

appointment. Some will leavethe room momentarily, togive your body privacy as i

triggers the reactions it needsIntuitive therapists will oftenwant to stay in the room withyou, and some will speakwith you during treatment to

help you release storedemotions or stress. Whilethere used to be a strict rule

of not including othe



therapies while using Bowenthis policy is being phased

out as many discover thebenefits of adding othemodalities. Some Bowen

practitioners will nowincorporate energy methodduring their pauses to activateyour body’s innate ability toheal itself.

If you choose to use othetherapies alongside Bowenensure that you do so in the

correct order. Since this is a



subtle technique, more heavyhanded therapies can undo it

work. Just be sure to haveyour chiropractic workphysiotherapy, or massage

done a day or two before youBowen session in order toreap the greatest benefitfrom all of them!

Physiotherapy



Physiotherapy, also knownsimply as physical therapy

can involve stretchesexercises, and rehabilitationtechniques. A physiotherapis

(or physical therapist) wilisolate the muscles that arecausing you pain, workingwith your body to get yourange of motion back to wha

it should be. Sometimestherapists engage in assistedstretching, in which they take

your muscle to the point o



restriction, then gently push ito go a little further. This can

cause some discomforinitially, but when donecorrectly, it can grant you

greater flexibility. Some wilalso work with ultrasoundmachines to heal muscles ona deeper level, sending wavesof energy into your body and

triggering it to repair.Physiotherapists know themuscles of the body very

well. They are able to asses



your complaint and explainwhich parts are causing the

problem. If you are sensitiveexplain this to your therapistand request that they star

with gentler approachesOnce you feel morecomfortable, you will have noproblem completing thestretches they recommend.



Chiropractic

A chiropractor addressestructural imbalances within

the spine, using manuamanipulations to adjust youvertebrae. If you’ve had longterm issues, you may requirefrequent sessions. It i

important to ask youchiropractor what might becausing the situation and i

there is anything you can



adapt in your everyday lifefor better comfort

Knowledge of your body andits triggers can be anincredibly powerful tool.

Some chiropractors focuon superficial relief andmaintenance rather thantreating the underlying causeof your discomfort. Work

with a practitioner whoindividualizes your visits. Isomeone does the same thing

to each patient every time



and says to come back in twoweeks, consider a differen

therapist. You want someonewhose focus is on healingwork rather than getting more

clients and booking moreappointments.

The thought of someonemaking forceful movementto your spine can be

frightening, so remember toalways check your therapist’scredentials first. A

practitioner who continues hi



or her education, attendingseminars and training day

every year, will be a greaasset to your health.

Acupuncture

The healing method oacupuncture is thousands oyears old and comes from

traditional Chinese medicine



It is based on the idea thathere are energy channels, o

meridians, that run throughthe body and connect ouchakras, our energy centers

When our chakras are clearwe can circulate energy, buthe energy flows differently ithere are imbalances oblocks. Traditional Chinese

medicine says that thoseblockages can cause pain andother health issues. Conside

water: without movement, i



is stagnant and unhealthy, buflowing water is an essentia

component of life.Acupuncturists have

identified very specific area

on the body that act as releasepoints. When influencedthese points open up thefloodgates of energy andallow the body to heal itself

Tiny needles are inserted athose points and left for atime, usually from 15 minute

up to one hour. Even those



worried about needles usuallysay that acupuncture isn’

frightening—the benefitoutweigh the phobiaHowever, be certain that you

practitioner takes propesanitary measures. He or sheshould never reuse needleand must dispose of them in aproper container.

Modern research has foundthat acupuncture does workalthough scientists are no

quite sure of the reasons why



as they do not give weight tothe knowledge of traditiona

Chinese medicine. Howeverperhaps it’s not essential tounderstand how it works

when the results speak fothemselves. We ask you toquestion friends and familywho have undergoneacupuncture treatments

You’ll find that most of themhad positive results.For example, I (Robert

have never been very good a



treating heel spurs. I workwith patients to alleviate the

discomfort, but it’s usuallytemporary. Unless the spur idissolved or removed

surgically, the pain keepcoming back. There are somenaturopathic herbal medicinethat can, in theory, dissolvethe heel spurs, but it’s a very

lengthy process. That beingsaid, I’ve referred severapatients to acupuncturists

and they received lasting



improvement after just acouple of sessions. Now they

can walk pain-free.One lady healed he

stomach pain by listening to

her guidance and tryingacupuncture. In an attempt totreat her acne, she received aprescription medication thawould also alter he

hormones. It worked well fothe first month, but then gaveher terrible side effects. She

was waking up every day



feeling depressed and tiredShe had such bad stomach

pain that it stopped her fromeating. She spent manyemotional hours in tears.

She called her doctor tomake an appointment, busomething inside her knewshe needed to look aalternative options. She took

some time to meditate and goa strong feeling that heangels wanted her to try

something different. She was



guided to a friend who knewa lot about Chinese medicine

This person recommended apractitioner, who suggestedthat she try acupuncture

After her first session, she felamazing! She had moreenergy, and the stomach painwas gone. This womancontinued following the

guidance of her angels andher traditional Chinesemedicine practitioner, and

today she is happy, healthy



and pain-free.

Find the Perfect

ractitioner for You

You will be sensitive to theenergy of your healing

practitioner. Ask your angelsto guide you to the perfecperson by saying:



“Dear God and angels,

please show me clear signs

that I can easily understand and interpret to indicate who

is the right practitioner for

me. I ask that they be happy,compassionate, and walk

their talk. I trust your Divine

decision and know you will

send the perfect person for

me. Thank you.”

Many readers have shared

how they were miraculously



directed to the right therapisby saying a prayer similar to

this. When you work withintuitive practitioners, theycan share alternative idea

that you might not havelooked into. As you let theangels guide you, youhealing will begin.

Many people haveexperienced healing



visitations by someone whomysteriously vanishes afte

coming to the rescue. TiinaAgur, an Estonian womanwho works in Luxembourg

had been suffering from hippain when an angel guidedher through the replacemensurgery.

Her surgery was in 2013

(on the ninth day of the ninthmonth at 9 A.M.). She felcomfortable and relaxed a

she was being wheeled to the



operating room. The staff hadwrapped her in green sheets

that kept her warm andcontent.

A woman who looked to be

about 65 appeared by hebedside. She was wearingsurgical scrubs and some kindof hair covering. She lookedfaintly Nordic in he

appearance: bright blue eyestanned, as if from spendingmost of her time outdoors

lots of wrinkles; and the



kindest, most comfortingsmile. She took Tiina’s hand

in both of hers and held itsmiling, as she said, “Hello. am your anesthetist.”

Tiina thought it was veryvery kind of her to take amoment to reassure her insuch a way. After that, shedoesn’t remember a thing

Her last thought was howpeaceful she felt with thigentle woman watching ove

her.



The next day Tiina waswapping stories with he

hospital roommate. Sheexpressed to her how lovelythe older lady was and

wondered whether heroommate had the sameanesthetist. She said no, herhad been a young man. Stilcurious, Tiina proceeded to

ask several nurses if theyknew the anesthetist. All othem said that there was no

such person. And, shaking



their heads, they said thaTiina had probably dreamed

it all.Tiina knows it wasn’t a

dream; her anesthetist had

been an angel. Now she igetting used to her new hipWhen she feels discomfortshe thinks of her anesthetist’kind face and it makes he

feel better.





beloved mother and thebreakdown of her marriage

These emotional traumahappened within weeks oone another. Karen also

suffered from agonizing backpain. She saw her doctor, buafter a battery of testsnothing was found to explainit. She tried a number o

prescriptions from her backspecialist, but her painseemed to worsen.

During this time, Karen



connected to her spiritualityShe began asking her angel

for help and welcomed theminto her life. Some days iwas a struggle to get dressed

and make it to work, but shepersisted. She feared what thefuture might hold, as shenever wanted to give up theoy of flying.

One evening, as Karen waserving drinks on a red-eyeflight across America, a very

distinguished-looking



passenger asked her, “What’wrong with your hips?” As a

flight attendant, Karen hadheard it all. She brushed thioff as just another bizarre

question, among the manydirected at her. She politelythanked him for his concernand told him that it was heback that was giving he

problems. Not satisfied withher reply, the passengeinsisted she had hip problems

He explained he would come



visit her after the flightPrevious passengers had told

Karen about every miraclecure known, so she bracedherself for another sales pitch

As it happened, heinteraction with this manwould change her life forever

The gentleman was aretired doctor. He explained

that his own discomfort hadled to his early retirement. Hehanded Karen a scrap o

paper with a nurse’s name on



it and insisted she call to seup an appointmen

immediately. He told her thathere was a team ospecialists in Atlanta, and she

should tell them he’d senher. His parting words as hedeplaned were, “These peoplewill give you back your life.”

Could this be real? Karen

wondered. Was it possiblethat God had arranged for thiman to be on the same fligh

as she was to help her heal?





message saying that if theybelieve in angels, this man

was on board her flight andsaid to call.

Fifteen minutes later a

nurse called back and replied“Yes, I believe in angels, andwe love the doctor whoreferred you. How can wehelp you?” Tears of joy

streamed down Karen’s faceas she told her story. Thenurse assured Karen that she

would get treatment within



the next few months. Karenexplained she couldn’t handle

the pain for that length otime. The nurse felt for herand fit her in two days late

when there was acancellation.

Karen was put under theexcellent care of a youngdoctor and had a successfu

hip replacement surgeryThen, just two short monthlater, she had another. When

she awoke from her second



surgery, the doctor was seatedbeside her. He said, “Today

we gave you back your life.”At first, Karen wondered ishe had died on the operating

table. Then the doctoexplained that he’d found alarge bone spur on her hip. Iwas affecting the joint andcreating a hole through the

hip bone. If it hadn’t beenfound, Karen would havebeen in a wheelchair for the

rest of her life.



Her angels brought Karenthe healing referral she

needed 30,000 feet in the airSix weeks later, she was backat work: pain-free

comfortable, and standingtall.

Trust Your Guidance

Sometimes the guidance



we receive might not maketotal sense. Rather than

udging it, explore it to seewhat occurs. My (Doreen’shusband, Michael, wa

having horrible migraineswhich became more severeduring solar flares. Being sosensitive, he could notolerate over-the-counte

drugs—nor did he want to!—so he first tried severanatural approaches. Nothing

made a difference. Michae



and I asked Robert for hisadvice, and he prescribed the

herbal medicine Ginkgobiloba. This herb enhancethe circulation in the head and

helps relieve the pressure. Itook the edge off, buMichael still felt a great deaof pain.

Michael went within and

asked his body what ineeded. He received theguidance that his body wa

like a battery, or electrica



circuit. He saw that drinkingapple cider vinegar with

honey would help to alkalizehis body and allow the batteryto recharge. It worked! He

now drinks vinegar two othree times a day and hasn’had a headache since.

Rachael White sought helpfrom conventional medicinebut ultimately followed he



inner guidance to heal heson’s pain. He’d had severe

eczema since he was five, andit was continually gettingworse. He was sent home

from school one day becausehis skin was broken andbleeding, whichadministrators said posed ahealth risk to others. He wa

kept from playing sports, andchildren teased him about hisskin. The eczema also

prevented him from



swimming in the oceanbecause the saltwater stung

his wounds.Rachael asked her loca

doctor for help, but wa

devastated when he said, “I’msorry, but there’s nothing can do for your son.” Shethen rushed to make anappointment with a specialist

who told her to bathe her sonin bleach! The specialist saidthat this would kill any

bacterial infection and give



the skin time to heal. Rachaepolitely declined and said she

would explore alternativeoptions before tryingsomething that seemed so

drastic.It was then that Rachae

pursued her spiritual pathHer angels guided her to usea combination of essentia

oils, nutrition, and meditationto help her son. He is nownine years old, and he no

longer has eczema!









CHAPTER NINE

ENERGETICALLYEVICTING PAIN



Negative energy is thehome of suffering. The more

you take on, the moresusceptible you become to iteffects. It perpetuates itself in

an unhealthy cycle—the morepain you feel, the morenegative energy you attractBut when you clear away thedarkness, you can feel the

loving presence of youangels. You’ll remember thain spiritual truth, you’re

already perfect, whole, and



complete. It’s merely anillusion of pain that’s holding

you down.Let’s evict the hurt from

your beautiful body with

some energetic healingmethods, so that only purehealth can remain.

Connecting with

ature



Mother Nature is abeautiful healer. A lot of the

hurts we accumulate can bepartly due to the fact that somany of us live and work

indoors. It isn’t natural foany creature, includinghumans. We aren’t meant tobreathe air-conditioned air owork under artificial lighting

In fact, studies show thamany modern illnesses cameinto being precisely at the

time that artificial lighting



became commonplace!We need sunlight in

moderation to trigger thebrain’s production of the feelgood chemical serotonin

Serotonin is also theprecursor to melatonin, whichthe body needs in order tosleep and repair itselfSerotonin regulates the pain

response and can reduce itseverity. Without enoughproduction of these

chemicals, we wake up



feeling tired, achy, grumpyand hungry for junk food.

We also need sunlight toensure that we’re gettingadequate vitamin D in ou

system. While you nevewant to get sunburnedavoiding the sun too much ialso dangerous. The angelsay that full-spectrum lighting

is necessary for optimahealth; the rainbow prismwithin sunlight feeds each o

the colors within the chakra



system, as it’s also a rainbowFor example, if you’re having

stomach complaints or powestruggles, the yellow withinthe full-spectrum light would

support their healing, becauseyellow is the color of thesolar-plexus chakra, which iassociated with these issues.

Please read the ingredient

list on sunblock carefullybefore applying it. Many othese products are loaded

with toxic chemicals. The



pores on your skin are liketiny mouths drinking in the

lotions you apply. Always besure to choose organicsunscreens, available at you

local health-food store oonline.

In addition, the angels saythat moonlight, starlightsunsets, and sunrises also

increase our overall wellnesand heal our pain:

Sunrise: Watching a



sunrise awakens thechakras, providing a

natural boost oenergy. This vitalityhelps us accomplish

our goals for the daywith positivity andmotivation.

Sunset: Gazing at asunset helps ou

chakras relax, and prepares us for agood night’s sleep. I



cleanses us from theday’s activities and

allows pain to bedissolved.

Starlight: Beingoutside beneath thestars triggers ou

creativity, and helpus be more artisticHere is where we ge

the inspiration toovercome pain. Wemay get thoughts o



new treatments wehad not considered

and be guided to the perfect practitioner.

Moonlight: Sinceancient times, ouancestors have stood

beneath the fulmoon as a powerfumethod of releasing

everything that’toxic from theilives.



Crystal Therapy

Crystals are healing stonethat carry an inherent energy

As your spiritual giftawaken, you will feel a gentlepulse of energy when youhold one. They store anddirect healing energies, which

your body can easily absorbWhen you sit with a crystaand set your intentions, i

gives the stone a way to



direct its power.The following are some

wonderful crystals and stonesfor healing pain:

Amethyst transformthe low energy ofear into love. Iheightens youintuition so you wil

know the right wayto move forward.

Black onyx pulls ou



old pain andexpectations of pain

from your body.

Blue lace agate

clears anxiety andstress, bringingcomfort to you

nerves. Rose quartz open

your heart and lets peace settle inEverything tha

comes from a place



of love is healing.

Others crystals that maybring you relief includegarnets, clear quartz

ametrine, carnelian, redasper, sodalite, fluorite, and

tiger’s eye. Wear, hold, workor sleep next to these crystalto receive their healing

support. (In the Appendix, werecommend certain crystalfor particular ailments.)



Cleansing Your

Crystals

Crystals are sensitive toolthat can easily absorbnegative energies; therefore

it’s best to cleanse youcrystals the first time youbring them home. This is a

nice little treat for youcrystals, and shows that youappreciate them. It also



removes all past associationthe energies of previou

owners, countries, andenvironments—leavingbehind pure healing energy

Crystals come from all ovethe planet and must endurebeing lifted from the earthsorted by miners, packed bywholesalers, priced by

retailers, and fondled bycustomers, before finallymaking their way to you

They can be depleted and



drained from their long

ourney.

Also, be sure to cleanseyour crystals if you haven’done so for some time. Think

of how many times you walkpast them every day. Crystalare like sponges. Since theywant to help, they continuallyclear heavy and lowe

energies from you. This is alovely service that they aredoing for you. Cleansing

them regularly is your way o



repaying them for the healingthey’ve been giving

unbeknownst to you.There are a number o

ways to cleanse your crystals

Choose a method that feelright for you. A commonpractice is to bathe the stonein a bowl of saltwaterhowever, we don’

recommend this because thesalt can damage the surface opolished stones and may

cause clusters to break apart



Try one of the following safemethods:

Bury the crystal in a bowl of uncooked

brown rice. Leave iovernight, thendiscard the rice inthe morning.

Bury the crystal in a

bowl of fresh flowe petals; it will beenergized and



cleansed.

Light a stick of youfavorite incense, and

pass the crysta

through the smokeAs you light theincense, set the

intention that thesmoke will cleaaway all negative

vibrations. Imagine a pure white lighcoming from the



incense andawakening the

healing properties oyour crystal.

Archangel Michael isexcellent at clearing negativeenergies from your crystalsCall upon him by saying:

“Archangel Michael, I ask

you to send your purifying

energy into my healing

crystals. Please awaken their



inner knowledge to heal and

inspire. Please prepare my

crystals for healing work andalign them with my energy

now. Thank you.”

Programming Your

Crystals

After cleansing you



crystals, be sure to chargethem with positive energy

You can do so throughprayer: open your heart andexpress your gratitude to

them. You can also leaveyour stones in sun- omoonlight for four hours.

Now your crystals areready to be programmed with

your loving thoughts. It iimportant to work with thecrystals—don’t just tell them

what to do. Speak to the



stones as if they’re lovingfriends, which they are. Pou

your heart out and admit anyconcerns or fears. Let thecrystals know exactly wha

you hope for. Also, shareyour previous experiencesInclude in your prayer thayou’re willing to accepwhatever God and the angels

may bring. If they see aneasier method for success, beopen to it! It is not necessary

to use any special words o



phrases to program youcrystals; it’s all about you

intention. When youintention is pure, you’lreceive the best possible

outcome.Have the courage to step

out of your comfort zone andspeak from your heart. Imight feel strange to talk to a

stone, but try explaining yousituation to them as ispeaking to a compassionate

friend. You have nothing to



lose by doing this—excepthe sensation of pain!

Crystal Elixir

Crystals have a healingaura that can be infused into

liquids. Many healers simplyadd stones to their drinkingwater; while this is fine with

some forms of quartz, there



are many minerals andcrystals that are harmful in

water. For example, selenitemay dissolve completely. It ialso difficult to properly

eliminate dust and germfrom the surface of the objectand you don’t want to bedrinking an elixir of bacteria!

The angels have shown u

a safe and easy way to workwith the energy of crystalsCrystal energy easily passe

through glass into the water



So all you need to do is pouwater into a clean container

then surround the exteriobase with your chosenhealing crystals. You’l

receive the energy withouthe fear of contamination.

Choose crystals that wilheal pain, such as amethystblack onyx, blue lace agate

and rose quartz. Rose quartzin particular, brings a verygentle, calming, and heart

opening energy to your water



You can arrange thecrystals in the evening before

bed, and wake up to a crystalinfused elixir.

The Power of theoon

The cycle of the moon isone of life’s constants. You



can be sure that it will growto full and wane into a sliver

and then the cycle repeats. Byaligning with the energy othis rhythm, you can choose

the perfect time to pray foyour goals, whether relatingto health or otherwise.

Many religious andspiritual practices are tied into

the moon cycles, such asEaster.As the moon goes from

new to full, also known a



rowing or waxing, it’s theperfect time to pray for things

you’d like to attract. It’s anopportunity to ask fohealing, abundance, like

minded friends, and theopening of new doors.

As the moon goes from fulto new, also known as fading

or waning, it’s the ideal time

to release. Let go of toxinspain, heartache, and dis-easeBy working with this simple

universal truth, you can add



an extra dimension ostrength to your prayers.

In truth there is nothingmore influential than prayerYou’re harnessing the powe

of the Divine and allowing alyour angels to intervene foyour highest good. When youask for heavenly assistanceyour needs will always be

served.At times you may ignore osimply not notice the

guidance that Heaven i



trying to give to youThankfully, your angels neve

become annoyed, frustratedor angry. They love youunconditionally and continue

to send you importanmessages until youunderstand them. They knowthat you’re human—eventhough you’re a spiritua

being in truth, you’re still onEarth having a humanexperience. This means

you’re prone to mistakes and



can easily get caught up inthe everyday activities of life

Rest assured that your angelsnever leave your side—noeven for a second. They are

with you, guiding you everystep of the way.

Following is a full-moonceremony you might wish topartake in. Feel free to

modify it to suit yourself andallow your intuition to guidethe entire process.



Full-Moon Release

Supplies:

white candle

pensheet of paper amethyst crystal

Prepare yourself for the

full-moon ceremony byrelaxing and being willing tolet go. You might choose to

take a bath or shower to



cleanse yourself.Carry your supplie

outside, and situate yourselin an area where you won’be disturbed. Stand or si

under the full moon. It’s okayif clouds cover the light; theenergy of the celestial spherewill still come throughstrongly.

Hold the unlit white candleup to the moon and say:

“Please shine your light to al



laces, seen and unseen. I ask

the light to illuminate my

aura to remind me of my truestate of health. I am willing to

release all that no longer

It’s time to move on. Angels,

please support me in this

Light the candle and take a



moment to gaze upon theflame. Light travels from the

moon to the candle, and fromthe flame to your heartAllow the warmth to soften

your emotions and give youthe courage to let go.

Pick up the pen and at thetop of your sheet of papewrite: I am willing to let go

and release. Then list all thayou no longer need. Considesuch things as: pain

“Amethyst, please transform

all these negative thoughts

and feelings into high energy

happiness, and health.”

Wrap the paper around thecrystal, or fold it up and place

the amethyst on top. Set it in



a place where you’ll see iregularly, but not constantly

In one month, open up thepaper. Read all the things thayou wanted to release, andcheck off those that are nowgone. Then throw away the

paper.If you like, you can repeathis ceremony for the new

month ahead.



Full-Moon Water

Blessing

The angels have guided usto enhance the energy of thewater we drink. Through thi

ritual, you too can bedrinking in the vitality andvibration of love.

Gabriel and the otheangels suggest that you placedrinking water under the ligh



of the full moon, whoseenergy is intense with

manifestation. ArchangeGabriel says that you can useglass-bottled water purchased

from the store, or you canmake a special healing batchto enjoy for several daysAllow the water to resovernight, covered to preven

contamination.We’ve found that moonblessed water tastes sweete

and has a palpable vibration



Drinking it aids you in lettinggo of the things that no longe

serve you and in welcomingfresh energy for your nexphase in life.

Tree Therapy

Trees are powerful healerand teachers for those who

are sensitive enough to hea



their voices. I (Doreen) sabeneath trees and wrote abou

their messages in my bookealing with the Fairies.

find that each tree (like

people) has a specific lifepurpose. Some will help youboost your confidence, otherhelp with relationship issuessome help manifes

abundance, and so forth. Jusask a tree about its purposeand trust the answer you

receive.



Trees can also performphysical healings. If you fee

tired, ill, or injured, simplylean your back against a treeYou can choose whether to si

or stand. You’ll immediatelyfeel the tree begin to absorbtoxins, pain, and lowenergies. It is a wonderfuprocess! And don’t worry—

this won’t hurt the tree. Jusas they are able to transmutecarbon dioxide into fresh

oxygen, so too do they



transmute and purify old painenergy.

Flower Therapy

Because we often forget toask for help, Mother Nature

has cleverly provided us withflowers to remind us. Theyare physical representations

of love from our Creator and



signs of the heavenlypresence that surrounds us

When you work with flowersit’s like you’re giving theangels a permission slip to

intervene in your life. Untithey receive this, they areunable to help you; they musstand on the sidelines andwatch.

As you go through youday, you might suddenlynotice a single blossom

peeking out from a crack in



the sidewalk or themagnificent blooms in a

neighbor’s garden. You mighnever have noticed thembefore, yet today they

captivate you. The angels saythat in these cases, theflowers were placed there jusfor you as part of their sacredpurpose to heal you. As you

pause and acknowledge thepresence of the angels, yougive them permission to help

So take a moment to literally



stop and smell the rosesYour mind will become

clearer and more focused, andyou will be supported on youhealing path.

At times you may becomeoverwhelmed with the chaoand drama of your everydaylife. These feelings appear aa psychic fog within you

aura, making it very difficulto tell which way is up, whadirection is forward, and

where you want to travel. The



sensation of pain iheightened, and all you can

see is the worst in yousituation. When you welcomeflowers into you

environment, negative energyis instantly lifted, alleviatingyour pain.

Beginning to work withflowers is as easy as bringing

fresh blossoms into youhome or planting seeds inyour garden. Pictures are also

ust as potent as the fresh



blooms. You can use imageas a healing tool to surround

yourself in positive, upliftingenergy. We’ve been guided touse flower pictures as desktop

backgrounds, phonebackgrounds, and meditativeart around our home. You canalways take a moment to lookat the image when you’re in

pain and call upon youangels. (For more in-depthways to connect with the

angels of nature, please see



our book Flower Therapy.)There are a few flower

that we recommend inparticular for healing:

— The best is the whiterose, which is connected toArchangels MichaelRaphael, and Metatron. Ibrings you clearing, healing

and balance across the boardWhen you bring a white roseinto your home, it will uplif

the energy, release al



darkness and tension, andpurify you. We love to use

the white rose as a wandwave it around your auraespecially over your areas o

discomfort. You might feel iin your body as the pain isextracted. To allow yourselto surrender to the momeneven more, have a loved one

carry the rose around youbody. (In Chapter 11, weshare a more in-depth

clearing ceremony that use



the white rose.)You can also place a

picture of the white rose inyour pillowcase or under youmattress. As you sleep, the

rose releases all pain fromyour body and aura. It wilalso work to clear negativeemotions. By having animage of a white rose on you

cell phone, you can easilyclear yourself anywhereanytime.



— African violets arewonderful to have in you

living room, bedroom, ooffice. They purify the energyof the environment, making i

more comfortable for yousensitive soul. If yousurroundings are filled withtoxins and heavy energy, youcan experience more pain

than usual. Have Africanviolets around your home oworkplace to ensure only

positive energies can dwel



there. Images of the violetswork beautifully, too.

I (Robert) have grown tohave such a deep appreciationfor these little flowers. I keep

them in my clinic and myhome. I’m not yet an experon growing them, but I’vefound that they are happieswhen you keep them on a

rotation of one week indoorsone week in a shaded areaoutdoors.



— Calendula helps cleapain by preventing the

negative energy from evereaching you. It serves as apreventive treatment and

reduces the severity of painespecially if it’s coming frompsychic attack. By drinkingcalendula tea, you strengthenyour aura and create a shield

of energy around youothing negative can enterbut pain can still leave.

Lower vibrations can be



transmitted through e-mailsover the phone, or through

social media. Protect yourselfrom the negative energy tharesults by placing an image o

calendula in your workplaceor home office, or as youphone background.

— Freesias bring

confidence and courage. Theygive you an emotionabackbone but also strengthen

your physical spine. Plan



these flowers in your gardento affirm a strong, supported

spine and painless body.

inging-Bowl Healing

Singing bowls are

instruments designed fohealing and meditation. Thesound is something like

rubbing your finger around



the rim of a wineglass, but ona larger scale. The mos

common are Tibetan bowls ocrystal bowls; both areequally effective in creating

sound vibrations thadissipate negative energy.

As we’ve discussednegative energy is a home fopain to dwell. You can find a

practitioner who works withthe singing bowls or do soyourself. We suggest trying

them out first; make sure they



resonate with your energyand that you feel the benefit

before investing in them.When you hear the bowls

you instantly shift into a state

of relaxation. Your breathingcalms and your mind slowsYou become a receptivevessel for healing energyPlaying the bowl for just a

few minutes makes aprofound differenceAfterward, you might like to

close with a healing



statement:

“Angels, please send me all the healing energy you can. I

am willing to receive your

guidance and energy, as I trust in your methods. I know

you will take good care of me

and guide me onto the path o

wellness. Please help me feel

good, relaxed, and completelycomfortable within my body.

Thank you.”



Chakra Clearing

As mentioned in theprevious chapter, you

CHAPTER TEN

SPIRITUALHEALING

METHODS



Everyone has the ability towork with Heaven, and you

don’t need special training oprayers to do so—the love inyour heart is all that’

required. The angels say thaeverything that comes from aplace of love contains healingenergy.

Healing may take many

forms. It might start as athought or urge to make aneeded change. Make a

commitment to trust you





their best work. Sometimeit’s only when you give up

the reins that a situation canbe resolved. When I (Robertbegan healing with the

angels, I was accustomed torunning my own therapeuticsessions. So when the angelsometimes gave me cleadirections to stay out of the

way, I was shocked. Theytold me that resistance, andhaving expectations of how

the healing will flow, can



actually slow down theprocess. The best thing to do

is to release control and allowthe angels to do their work.

In this chapter, we wil

explore the different ways inwhich we can ask for Divinehelp to soothe our pain.

Calling On Your

ngels



You, like everyone, haveangels with you. They are a

part of your physiology, aessential as any other part oyour anatomy. Just like

you’re born with a heart andlungs, so too are you bornwith angels. Yours have beenwith you since before youwere born, and they know

you better than anyone elseon this earthly plane. Theywere with you when you

chose this life, and they know



what purpose your soucarries. The angels are

created from God’s pureDivine intelligence andhealing love. These beings o

pure love and light surroundyou and guide you along apath of peace and fulfilment.

Angels arenondenominational, and help

everyone equally. A veryimportant point is that the

angels don’t want to be

rayed to or worshiped, and



they give all glory to God theCreator. You can call upon

angels for aid because Godcreated them to help uthrough our earthly existence

You can work with the angelin conjunction with Jesussaints, or your personareligious preferences.

Your angels want nothing

more than to help youHowever, as we’vementioned, the Law of Free

Will means that they canno



intervene in your life withouyour express permission. You

must ask for their help. Youdon’t need to know anyspecial words or prayers—

ust thinking, Help! ienough. Make a commitmento call on your angels everyday and allow them to assisyou.

Of course you have the freewill to completely ignore theDivine messages you receive

evertheless, we pray tha



you listen, and that morepeople begin to listen to thei

angels each day. As we allisten to the guidance fromabove, the world becomes a

lighter place. You’ll findopportunities for healingachievement, and love whenyou tune in to the voices othe Divine.

There are three differen



types of angels: angels

uardian angels, and

archangels.

— There are an unlimited

supply of angels that you cancall upon. As you ask fohealing, you’re tapping intothe boundless store of God’love to help you or someone

else. The important thing toacknowledge is that you’renever taking angels away

from another person. These



angels are continuallystreaming down from Heaven

to be with us here on Earth. Iyou feel guided to send100,000 angels to a person o

environment, you’re noreducing the supply ohealing beings. Insteadyou’re surrounding that parof the world with such a

bright light that its healingeffects ripple out, defying therestrictions of time and space

and enhancing the lives o



anyone willing to receive it.

— Guardian angels areyour personal angels. Theyare a little different from

deceased loved ones, whowhile angelic in nature, can’technically be classed aangels. While you might heapeople say that they feel tha

their grandmother is theiguardian angel, the majodifference is that angels have

never been on Earth and have



no ego.Your guardian angels wan

you to succeed. They giveyou gentle pushes toward thepath of least resistance. They

remind you of your purposeand ensure you complete yousoul mission in this lifetimeThese angels were with youthe moment you signed you

contract for this life, so theyknow the true purpose foyour time here on Earth. They

may also help you learn the



cause of your physical pain.Your guardian angels know

you better than anyone elseand are the best friends youcan ever have. Take time now

to call upon them. Ask themto give you signs of theipresence by saying:

“Dear God, thank You for

sending guardian angels tome. Guardian angels, thank

you for your constant love

and support. I sincerely



appreciate all that you do for

me, even when I forget to

acknowledge you. Pleasemake yourselves known to me

by giving me clear signs I wil

easily notice and understand I would love to know your

names, and I trust that as I

hear names three or more

times within this week, it’s a

sign from you. I love you.”

— Our third group is the

archangels, who are like the



managers of the angelicrealm. They are slightly

larger and have more of acommanding presence thanthe others. For healing, we

work with trustworthy andreliable Archangels Michaeand Raphael. We alsooccasionally work withArchangel Metatron fo

certain types of healing.

Archangel Michael

whose name mean



“He who is likeGod,” is a very large

and powerfuarchangel who is a

protector. Archange

Michael heals byreleasing the effectof fear and negativityfrom our mindsemotions, and

bodies. Michaegives us couragefaith, and

confidence.



Archangel Raphaeis a gentle ye

powerful archangewho specializes inemotional and

physical healingOriginally describedin the non-canonica

biblical Book oTobit, Archange

Raphael is a saint insome Christianfaiths. He has long

been regarded as the



angel of healing.

Archangel Metatronis one of two human

biblical prophets (the

other being the prophet Elijah, who became Archange

Sandalphon) whoascended in a charioof fire into the

archangel realmMetatron was the

prophet Enoch, who



lived such a piousangelic human life

that God transformedhim into anarchangel. Archange

Metatron guidethose who are new tospiritual lifeincluding spirituallygifted children.

Depending upon youreligious beliefs, you may

also want to call upon Jesus





Raphael (whose name mean“God heals”) in particula

helps beautifully withrelieving pain. He addressephysical, emotional, and

spiritual concerns. When youcall upon Raphael, you givehim permission to bringhealing to every area of youlife, to every issue and

blockage. His light cancombat any negative thinkingor perception of pain. By

allowing him access to you



body, you can removesuffering in all its forms.

Raphael heals with anemerald-green light of loveThis energy has its own

intelligence; it knows theareas that need the most helpand naturally flows to whereit’s required. You don’t needto do anything to assist it

Indeed, the best thing you cando is get out of the way andlet the angels do their work

Surrender to the process and



allow yourself to heal.Call upon Archange

Raphael by saying:

“God and Archangel

Raphael, please heal me. I ask you to release all forms o

pain from my body and aura.

I trust you, and I allow you to

do your sacred healing work.

Thank you.”



Asking for Raphael’shealing assistance can bring

remarkable results, aTeresina Diaz learned. Shealready watched for persona

messages from the angels inher everyday life. One othese signs was feathersTeresina often found themaround her car, on he

balcony, and even inside hehouse! She knew that findingall these feathers in a shor

period of time meant that the



angels were telling her to beprepared—she would soon be

called to action. She chose tolet go of fear and surrender tothe situation. She knew that i

she followed her guidanceeverything would be okay.

In July 2013, a dear friendof Teresina’s was diagnosedwith breast cancer. A week

after Teresina was given thidevastating news, she found alarge group of feathers on the

pavement next to her ca



door. While she was used tofinding one or two feathers

like a heads-up from theangels, seeing so many madeher slip into panic mode. The

large number of feathers wasa Divine sign that somethingmajor was about to happenbut also reassurance thaeverything would be okay.

Initially, Teresina tried todismiss her intuition. She toldherself that perhaps a bird had

simply met an unfortunate



end. But the following weekshe found feather

everywhere! There werefeathers on her balcony, at theentrance to her apartment

near her car, and inside hehome. She finally acceptedthat the angels were sendingher a message, and thought iwas a sign to tell her that he

friend would be okay.One day, Teresina noticedthat her eye hurt wheneve

she looked at a light. Tha



night, she couldn’t sleepbecause of the pain. She

canceled all her appointmentswith clients for the next fewdays because her eye was red

and swollen and gettingworse. A couple of days latershe was in agony. She didn’have health insurance buknew she had to go to the

hospital. Her Earth Angeson, Erik, came to the rescueand drove her.

When Teresina and Erik



arrived at the hospital, thedoctors could tell the problem

was serious. They wanted heto have emergency surgerybut something told her to

wait. She heard a voice aclear as day whisper in heear, “If you stay, then youwill lose the eye.” SoTeresina decided to visit he

parents in Mexico, and allowher eye to heal on its ownThe doctors gave he

antibiotics and sent her on he



way. (In hindsight, sherealized that not having

health insurance made thidecision easier. Howeverdelaying emergency surgery

is a decision that should nobe made lightly or withousupport.)

Whenever Teresinareturned to Mexico, she often

smelled the fragrance oflowers, which is a commonsign that your angels are

nearby. During this trip, the



scent was so strong thapeople would stop her to ask

what perfume she waswearing! Teresina realizedthen that the feathers she’d

been finding were signs foher, personally, rather thanher friend. They werereminders to her that God wahelping her and that all would

be resolved.In this peacefuenvironment, Teresina wa

guided to the perfect doctor



another Earth Angel, whoalso believed in the healing

power of Heaven. Thisangelic doctor found that aprevious operation to fix

Teresina’s nearsightedneshad released an aggressiveform of bacteria in her eyeBecause the previous doctorhad seen her when the

infection was severe, theiopinion had been that sheneeded an operation to

prevent her from losing he



sight. This new doctosuggested that she continue

with the antibiotics she hadbeen given, as well apositive thinking and energy

work.Teresina prayed that God

and Archangel Raphaewould help her and heal heeye. One night, she felt the

archangel take her to anemerald temple. She waguided to lie on an emerald

green healing bed. The angel



took a laserlike instrumenmade of clear quartz crystal

pointed it at her eye, andshone a golden ray of lighthrough it. She felt Archange

Michael standing nearby andholding her hand.

Four weeks laterTeresina’s eye wascompletely healed, with no

more discomfort. Her doctoand family were thrilled withher speedy recovery. She

regained her sight and now



looks at life with a differenperspective. She trusts in the

healing power of the angelmore than ever and spreadthe word by teaching others.

Sometimes, healingmiracles occur when peopledecide that pain no longer has

a place in their lives. In July2006, Andrea Kingsbury wadiagnosed with Lyme disease



a serious illness that itransmitted through tick bites

It affected her both physicallyand neurologically, giving hepain and fatigue. At times she

felt like she’d been run oveby a bus, and she wanted tosleep all day. One side of heface became partiallyparalyzed! She was put on a

series of antibiotic treatmentsbut the effects of the diseaselasted for months.

There were times when



Andrea felt well, but sooneor later she would fall il

again. It was devastating toher as she tried to raise heyoung children. Andrea

finally got to the point whereshe couldn’t take it anymoreIt had been seven longmonths, and she refused to besick any longer—it was time

to become well.A few weeks after thidecision, Andrea was in one

of her “feeling better”



periods. She was in Floridaon vacation, awake jus

before dawn, when a beam oemerald-green light suddenlystruck her! This distinct colo

allowed Andrea to know thaArchangel Raphael waanswering her cries for helpThe light surrounded her, andshe could feel herself healing

Then, abruptly, it was goneAndrea wondered if thiamazing event would be

repeated.



The next morning, jusbefore dawn, the same thing

happened. Andrea felt theemerald light healing everycell within her body. She

heard a voice say what shehad already felt: “You’rehealed.”

To this day, Andrea has nohad a single relapse of he

Lyme disease, and rarelyeven gets sick! Before thisexperience, she used to have

constant infections; now they



are a thing of the pastOriginally, Andrea was

frightened of sharing thiexperience with others, buwith the support of he

angelic Reiki master, CarmenCarignan, she grew strongeand found the confidence totell her story.

The angels can heal youonly as much as you allow



them. It’s important to let goof your expectations, and be

willing to let the best possiblescenario unfold. SabrinaMuenzer from Austria healed

her eye pain with the help oArchangel Raphael.

As a child, Sabrina wasmoved to the back row of heclassroom, where she

discovered that she couldnow clearly see theblackboard, which had

appeared blurry to her from



the front row. She racedhome to tell her parents abou

this amazing improvement inher vision. However, insteadof sharing her excitement

they took her to see an eyedoctor, who diagnosedSabrina with hyperopia, ofarsightedness. Sabrina wanot happy to be prescribed

glasses! She resisted wearingthem and took them off asoften as she could.

Years later, when Sabrina



was in her 20s, she suddenlyfelt a severe pain in her eye

and a headache while she wastudying one night. She felthat all the reading she had to

do at her university mighhave strained her eyes andcaused this situation.

Sabrina chose to heaherself by working with

Archangel Raphael. Shecommitted to daily healingsessions where she called on

her angels. She did this fo



five minutes a day, for abousix weeks. Her pain steadily

decreased until it disappearedcompletely.

Not only was the pain

gone, but when Sabrina wento an eye doctor for acheckup, she discovered thashe also no longer had anysigns of farsightedness! Some

people thought this wamiraculous, but Sabrina knewit was simple for Raphael to

do. Because she had no



restricted herself to merely arelease of pain, but instead

allowed for a total healingher angels were able todeliver it!

When Trey Handy grantedRaphael full access to hebody, it allowed for he

healing to happeninstantaneously.

Trey had been having



problems with her right eyefor a while; it was swollen

and it felt like pressure hadbuilt up behind it. Then oneday, as she was looking out a

window, her eyespontaneously began towater. She didn’t know wherethis was coming from, but shechose to call on Archange

Raphael for help.Trey sent out her pleawhile calmly standing in fron

of the large window



Immediately, she felt a strongpresence behind her. She wa

frightened initially, but thenshe released her worries andsaid aloud, “Raphael, I trus

you. I have no fear. Please dowhat you need to do.”

Raphael had just beengiven the permission heneeded. Trey remained still a

she saw waves of lighsurrounding her. She wasguided to sit down as she

continued to see and fee



energy surrounding herrippling with white, purple

and flashes of green lightThis wonderful experiencelasted for several minutes

and Trey felt humbled.Then she heard someone

whisper in her ear, “This mayhurt a little.” She felt apressure at the top of he

head, like a rod being seninto her body and through hespine. A moment later, he

vision was clear! Since tha



day Trey hasn’t had anyswelling, watering, or pain in

her eye.

One day, Melodee Curriefelt very ill. She had just read

my (Doreen’s) book Theealing Miracles o

rchangel Raphael, so she

decided to call upon God andthe archangel for a healingShe held her head in he



hands, closed her eyes, andvisualized Raphael’

signature emerald-green lightHer symptoms disappearedimmediately, and when she

opened her eyes, everythingwas that distinct green colorShe instantly knew thaArchangel Raphael was thereand answering her prayers.

Since that momentMelodee has had completetrust in Raphael, and he ha

always been there for her.



rchangel Michael’s

piritual Vacuuming

Vacuuming is a spirituaclearing method that iextremely effective fo

releasing fear and negativeenergy. Archangel Michaeuses his etheric suction tube

to remove blocks andcounteract the effects opsychic attacks. At the othe



end of the tube is the Band oMercy—a group of smalle

angels who accompanyArchangel Michael in hiclearing work. They

transmute all lower energieto a higher vibration andwork to instill love and peace

If your body is congestedwith lower energies, you can

experience more physicapain. Invite ArchangeMichael into your life and

give him permission to help



you. Ask him to vacuum youbody, aura, or home, and he

will remove unwantednegative energy for you.

People who have tried this

method have reporteddramatic changes. They say ias if a weight has been liftedfrom their bodies, and theyhave regained freedom o

movement. They wake in themornings with vitality andoy rather than fatigue. Thi

high energy can inspire you



too, to create the changes youwish for yourself.

Archangel Michael can bewith everyonesimultaneously. You can cal

upon him for yourself, whilealso asking him to help lovedones. Remember, howeverthat Michael cannot interferewith others’ free will, so he

will only conduct healings ipeople are willing to receivethem.

Call upon Michael for a



spiritual vacuuming bysaying:


Michael, please be here with

me now. I ask you to pleasevacuum [me, my home, my

office, my country, the planetetc.]. Please suction away the

lower energy of fear. Release

all darkness to reveal thelight. Please release any pain

rom my body right now. I ask

you to lift away all traces of



negativity, leaving behind

only love.”

In your mind’s eye, seeMichael clearing away the

negative energy. By doing sohe reveals the beauty of youDivine light. He can alsoincrease or reduce theintensity of the suction

Depending on your comforlevels, try asking him toswitch the vacuum to low

medium, high, or extra-high



Continue working withMichael until you feel that al

traces of fear are removed.Then you can infuse the

affected area with additiona

healing light. Say:


Michael, please send your

loving, pure light of God into

[my body, my home, myoffice, etc.]. Please protect

me from lower energies and

remind me to call upon you



for guidance and support.

Thank you.”

When you undergo aspiritual vacuuming, you

raise your energetic vibrationThis makes it easier tounderstand the guidance oyour angels. You may feerelief and also be guided to

the right therapists. You mayalso find yourself aligningwith more like-minded

individuals.



The angels are happy toclear you as often as you needit, and they may also gently

guide you to avoid situationsthat cause you painVacuuming causes you to

become a clean and cleavessel, which intensifies yousensitivity. Afterward, you

may become more aware owhich situations and peoplelower your vibration—when



you’re around them, you maynotice headaches, fatigue

constant yawning, itchy skinor difficulty concentratingThese are signs from you

angels to extract yourselfrom these unhealthysituations or avoid thecompany of these individualsFor example, you may find

that you can no longer listento or be around people whocomplain a lot or who create

lots of drama. By releasing



those individuals, you’re nobeing a bad friend—you’re

merely attempting to raiseyour own vibration. You’remaking the choice to allow

only positive energies intoyour life.

As part of the naturaprocess of developing youspirituality, you may also fee

guided to modify other typeof relationships. Your HigheSelf may tell you to avoid

alcohol and drugs, and the



people who abuse themMany people convince

themselves that they’re noaddicted, but your inneknowingness tells you tha

their behavior is a form oself-harm. Trust this higheguidance. As a beautifuexample of God’s love, youhave the ability to shine you

light upon those in need, buyou don’t need to join otheron their path of despair to do

so. You can’t help you



friends if you involveyourself in their crises and

dramas. Doing so will onlycreate more people in need ohealing.

Cutting Etheric Cords

with Archangel

ichael



Etheric cords are negativefear-based attachments. From

a clairvoyant standpoint, theylook like tubes connectingyou to other people, places, o

objects. While they start outhin and string-like, theygrow as time progresses andthe relationship developsThey make you feel fatigued

and are often responsible founexplained pain. If there areno clear physical causes fo

your discomfort, it may be



due to an etheric-cordattachment. Many people

have experiencedinstantaneous relief aftecutting these cords.

Etheric cords can bothtransmit and absorb lowenergy. Think of friends whoare draining, or people whomake you feel physically and

mentally exhausted. This idue to fear-based cordattachments suctioning away

your vitality and giving it to



others. These individualkeep themselves going by

siphoning off your energyreserves! On the other handanother person’s anger o

stress energy can tumbledown the cord to you insteadThese emotions may hit youquite suddenly; one minuteyou’re fine, and the next you

feel intense anger or hurtThis can lead to suddenphysical discomfort for no

apparent reason.



Cords frequently attach tohelpers. If you enjoy assisting

others, or have a healingbusiness of some sort, youmay have etheric-cord

attachments. That’s why it’so important to cut your cordregularly. Otherwise, youmay be overcome withnegative attachments, which

will drain you and make youfeel chronically fatigued andburned-out.

The underlying energy o



cords can stimulate thoughtand feelings such as:

What if they aren’

there the next time

need help?

I’m jealous. I wan

what they have.They made me fee

so good. I need them

in order to feel tha

way again.



I don’t want them to

leave me.

I resent them.

They’re the source o

my power.

They’re the source o

my healing.

Archangel Michael can

sever these cords of fearreleasing you from theunhealthy part of a



relationship. To start thiprocess, find a quiet space

and begin by breathingdeeply. Consider lighting awhite candle for purification

or sitting in front of a bouque(or picture) of white roses.

Bring your attention toyour physical body. Noticeany areas that feel tighter o

more restricted. Becomeaware of places that feewarmer than others.

Now take your dominan



hand (the hand you naturallywrite with), and move i

around your body to scanyour aura. Pay attention tochanges in air pressure

tingling, or heat. All of thesesensations are clues that thereare etheric-cord attachments.

Call upon ArchangeMichael by saying:


Michael, please sever and

release any cords of fear. I



am willing to let go of this

unhealthy, unbalanced

energy. I choose instead toalign myself with love and

light. I ask you to remove

negative energies from mybody. Please release all

attachments to pain. I am

willing to heal. Please release

all effects of these cords now

Thank you.”

Follow Michael’s energy

throughout your body. Be



aware of the areas of tensionthat are being dissolved.

You may receive intuitiveflashes of the people osituations that those cords

were connected to. Let thesefeelings move through youbody, and release them. Thiis all part of the process. Theangels recommend that you

view the people you wereattached to with love. Idoesn’t help to send them

negative energy in return



Instead, dissolve the fearbased attachment and allow

healing to transpire.On occasion you may be

randomly contacted by a

person whose negativeattachment you have cut. Heor she may not be consciouslyaware of what happened, buyou will feel the difference in

your connection. You have lego of the unhealthy part thabound you, and all tha

remains is light, peaceful love



energy. Remember, thiprocess removes only the

negative parts of theserelationships—you can’t evecut the cords of love.

If you feel that certaincords were not released, askyour angels why. They maysend you images or feelingabout the person connected

via this cord. Then, visualizea peaceful conversation withthis individual. Say

everything that’s on you



mind and in your heart. Youmay get a sense of what thi

person would say in returnAfterward, tune in to youbody again. Notice the subtle

differences and the greateenergy you now feel. You’vesuccessfully released anegative, unbalancedrelationship! Tell the universe

that from this moment onyou will accept only lovingpeople into your life.



The Power of Prayer

When you pray, you areconnecting to the Divine

consciousness that surroundsyou. In truth, God is alwaywithin you, so you have thepower to call on this potenenergy no matter what. A

we’ve said, due to theUniversal Law of Free Willthe angels need to be granted

access in order to intervene in



your life. When you pray, yougive them permission to step

in.Prayer doesn’t require tha

you sit upright with you

hands placed together andyour head bowed. (Althoughif this is what feels right foyou, then by all means, praythis way.) It’s not a particula

posture that gives prayer itpower—nor is it the wordsIt’s the underlying intention

the passion, and the heart tha



gives power to your prayers.There have been a numbe

of studies conducted onprayer that demonstrate ithealing power. Some of these

have been double--blindwhich means that neither thephysicians nor the patientknew which particpants werebeing prayed for and which

were not. In most cases, thegroups that were beingprayed for healed faster

required fewer medications



and had a lower rate ocomplications after surgery.

We strongly rely uponprayer personally andprofessionally, and have seen

its potent effects countlestimes. In our own surveys opeople in pain, we found thathose who healed the fasteswere the individuals who

called upon Divineintervention. They mighhave been desperate and

grasping at straws, but they



got on their knees and prayedfor help. Finally, God and the

angels had the “permissionslip” they required. So iyou’re in need of healing, try

prayer—it could bring youmore relief than you canimagine. (For moreinformation on the topic, welove and highly recommend

books by Larry DosseyM.D.)There are two ways to

pray: supplication (asking fo



something) and affirmationThere appears to be a slightly

higher success rate withaffirmative prayers. As anexample, you might say in a

prayer of supplication“Please help me release thispain.” In a prayer byaffirmation, you wouldinstead say: “My body i

comfortable and fullyhealed.” Notice the energy othose two phrases. Read them

again and be aware of wha



each one feels like in youbody. If you’re sensitive, then

you will likely feel a strongeresonance with the secondstatement.

Do your best to remove alnegative and low-energywords from your prayersAllow the change that you arepraying for to ripple through

every area of your life; don’pray, then complain all dayabout what you don’t want

Do your best to clear those



thoughts from your mind andsilently repeat your healthy

desire.Some affirmative healing

prayers to try are:

“Thank you for my perfectly healthy body.”

“I am comfortable.”

“My body movefreely and

effortlessly.”



“Regular movemenis easy for me.”

As you say these prayersvisualize God’s healing

energy and your angelssurrounding you and givingyou the support you needThere is no such thing as“praying too much.” You can

never irritate God or youangels; the sole purpose otheir creation is to help you to

complete your mission. They



wish to fulfill their heavenlyduties by guiding you to the

healthiest way of being.

Kevin Hunter is an authowho discovered the power o

prayer on November 222010, when he was puthrough his paces to learn

about this immense healingenergy. Although he had beenspiritual his entire life, the



following incident allowedhis heart to fully embrace the

Divine love surrounding him.In early November, Kevin

noticed that something didn’

feel quite right in his groinHe was a little concerned, bunot overly panicked, andbegan researching what icould be. His angels guided

him to the answer that it waan infection, so he e-mailedhis doctor to explain the

situation and ask fo



antibiotics.After several days passed

with increasing testiculadiscomfort, Kevin went to theclinic. He explained that he

knew there was a connectionbetween his gym workoutand this growing pain, andagain requested antibioticsThe doctor, however, said he

would need to run tests firstAs the doctor described theprocedure, which involved

sticking a tube into a place



that it made Kevin veryuncomfortable to imagine, he

felt himself becomingnauseated.

The doctor suggested tha

it could also be Kevin’prostate, but then added thahe was younger than thestandard age when a personwould begin regula

checkups. This guess felincorrect to Kevin, and hekept thinking about the

angelic message he wa



receiving. He decided to skipthe test, monitor himself a

home, and return to the clinicif his symptoms didn’t cleaup naturally.

After a week, the pain hadincreased to the point whereKevin could barely move owalk. He could hear thevoices of his angels loudly

telling him what he neededbut he was fearful. What if

have to go to the emergency

room? What if they have to



cut part of my body off?

Kevin was panicked

overwhelmed by the manythoughts racing through himind. His Higher Self told

him it was merely aninfection that could becleared easily. His lower selimagined every outrageouscenario that would lead to

devastating surgeries.Kevin decided to e-mail hidoctor, begging again fo

antibiotics. As a



claircognizant (someone whoreceives Divine message

through thoughts and ideas)Kevin commonly got called aknow-it-all, and he worried

that maybe his doctor didn’like this direct approach. Iprobably felt unsettling for aprofessional to be instructedon what to do by someone

with zero training. But soonKevin’s pain was off thecharts, so he called the

doctor’s assistant directly



The assistant said that thedoctor had been traveling

and offered a referral to aurologist. The sound of thaspun Kevin into a furthe

panic. He hunted for anothedoctor to give a secondopinion—anything to avoidthe urologist! However, everypractitioner he found wa

either booked or out of town.Kevin’s pain levels werestarting to frighten him, bu

his lower self convinced him



that if he went to theemergency room, it would be

like a scene out of a horrofilm. So he finally gave inand requested an immediate

appointment to see theurologist. Unfortunatelythere were no openings fofour days. Kevin’s anxietyskyrocketed. How am I going

to make it? The pain isetting worse! It won’t stop

very day it climbs higher

He spent his time waiting in



bed, because every movemenwas followed by sharp

stabbing pain in delicateareas. When he walked, iwas as if he faced the

prospect of miles of hot coaland glass under his feet, withno hope for escape.

The day before Kevin’appointment, November 22

2010, his life changedforever. It was the awakeningmoment that deepened hi

spirituality. On this day



Kevin drifted into meditationwithout effort and asked hi

angels for help. He was soused to doing everything byhimself that asking anyone

even Heaven, for help waunheard of! He begged andpleaded with God and theangels. Having an honesconversation with them

opened up every cell in hibody. This was followed bythe sudden, welcome release

of his agonizing pain



Immense love took over hissoul.

Kevin’s clairvoyanceopened up, and he saw hisoul soaring through the

bluest skies. He flew aboveheavenly white clouds whereangels watched him. In thedistance, he saw an extremelytall figure that looked like a

stretched-out lamppost. As heapproached it, his mouthopened in blissful awe. Wha

he’d thought was a lamppos



grew whiter and brightercoalescing into a 30-foot-tal

being with two giganticgorgeous wings! In a loudvoice, the being said he wa

Archangel Michael, adding“You will be fine. We’reworking on it.” Kevin wafilled with colossal joy andabsolute trust in the

archangel’s words.When Kevin awoke, hiseyes were flooded with tear

of joy, and he felt emotion



that he had never experiencedbefore. He felt his old life

leaving him, and he wareborn with an entirely newoutlook.

Kevin went to the urologisno longer full of fear of whawould need to be done. Hefelt unusually calm abouwhat might be ahead. The

urologist didn’t need toconduct any of the painfutests that Kevin had feared

He diagnosed Kevin with



epididymitis, an infection in atube in his testicle. He

explained that it’s commonwith sports players andathletic people. Kevin was

shocked that this level of paincould be triggered bysomething as healthy aworking out!

Kevin experienced an

incredible improvement withevery day that passed aftethe miraculous encounte

with Archangel Michael



Although he had alsoreceived a ten-day

prescription of antibiotics, heknew that it was truly Divineassistance that afforded him

such a speedy recovery. Bythe second month, there wereno signs of infection; it waas if it had never happened.

Kevin knew that something

profound had taken placeThis experience awakenedhim in ways he could neve

have imagined.



Trenia had experiencedknee pain since her teenageyears. Now it was preventing

her as a mother from keepingup with her childrenAlthough she’d tried physica

therapy over the last 15 yearsthe pain never disappearedShe’d been poked and

prodded more times than shecould count. Prescriptionpainkillers helped for only a



short while before the paineventually returned. The

discomfort prevented hefrom exercising, whichcaused weight gain and

further stress on her joints.In early 2013, Trenia’

knee worsened to the poinwhere she couldn’t put anyweight on it. Any step she

took resulted in her legsgiving way. The doctors wereconvinced she had torn he

meniscus, the essentia



cartilage within the joint. Alof their tests confirmed it, and

Trenia was scheduled to seean orthopedic surgeon for ameniscal repair.

This was a very difficultemotional time for TreniaHowever, in this moment, sheremembered her angelicconnection. She meditated

and asked God and the angelto heal her knee. She didn’want to have the surgery, and

she wanted to be there for he



daughter’s first theme parkvisit in a few weeks. She

began receiving unmistakablesigns and messages that thiwould be so.

Two weeks later, sheunderwent an MRI to confirmthe location of the tear prioto surgery. However, the tesrevealed that there was no

tear—her knee wacompletely healed! Hedoctors said there was no

longer any reason to do



surgery. They had noexplanation as to how he

knee was able to heal the wayit did, saying that meniscustears do not have enough

blood flow to repaithemselves.

To this day, Trenia’s painis completely gone—and shehad a great time taking he

daughter to her first themepark!



A beautiful soul namedSapphire healed her back

through prayer. After a longday of cleaning her basementcarrying very heavy boxe

and moving furniture aroundshe began to feel pain in helimbs and back. That nightthe ache wouldn’t allow heto rest, but she didn’t want to

take medication.While lying in bedSapphire called upon

Archangel Raphael. She



asked for his help to releaseany pain and toxins from he

body. In her mind, she sawtwo hands reaching down intoher back. A warm and

comforting golden lighappeared, and Sapphire knewshe was safe with thesehealing hands. Thensuddenly, she was completely

pain-free! She was astoundedby how quickly the healingcame. Sapphire spent a

moment thanking the angel



for their help beforepeacefully drifting off to

sleep.

On June 3, 2012, Gina MAdkins was moving into a

new home in Arizona withher husband, Michael, andtwo young children, Alexi

and Kaylee. Her mother andstepfather were there to helpthem move, too. It was a



oyful day during whaseemed to be a normal move

As Gina pulled a large, heavybox across the floor, sheheard a snap and felt pain

from her lower back shoot toher feet. After several hourof discomfort, she decided tolie down for a nap in themaster bedroom.

An hour later Gina awoketo find herself paralyzed fromthe waist down. She screamed

out for help, and her husband



ran into the room. Gina hadfallen from the bed to the

floor. She cautiously rose toher feet on shaky legs, callingout, “Dear God, hear me

now!” Michael carried herarms and legs limp, into theliving room, where the familylooked on in shock.

Suddenly, a sense of peace

rushed through Gina’s bodyShe had a feeling that iwould all be over soon. She

looked up at her husband and



said, “I’m fading.” She felt aheavy weight lifting from he

body as she drifted into analtered state. She heard hemother screaming, “Come

back! Don’t you leave usGina.” In the darkness, sheexperienced an overwhelmingsense of peace and joy. Therewas no pain, no worry, no

heartache. She was realizingher Divine connection to Godand the angels.

The next thing Gina



remembered was opening heeyes to see a paramedic with

piercing blue eyes—a blueshe had never seen before inall her 35 years of life. He

said, “My name is HudsonYou’re going to be okay.”

An ambulance rushed Ginato the emergency room aJohn C. Lincoln Hospital in

Phoenix. Her heart rate wafalling to 30 beats per minuteless than half of what i

should be. At the hospital



Gina asked about Hudson, buno one knew about him. She

became frustrated that she’dbeen sent back to Earth inpain, yet her rescuer was

nowhere to be found. Hieyes remained a vividmemory.

Gina needed to have acrash cart next to her fo

several days during her stayin the hospital. Thecardiologist insisted she

required a pacemaker to



stabilize her heart. Theorthopedic surgeon insisted

that she have surgery toreplace her ruptured L4 andL5 disks. Something within

told her that those weren’t theright options. Against aladvice, Gina refused thesurgeries. She continued topray and ask God and the

angels for healing.Three days later she awokeat 2:45 A.M. to a whisper

“Stand now.” She gently tried



to sit up, and tears filled heeyes from the pain. Her fee

touched the floor, but shewasn’t sure that she couldcontinue. Then she heard tha

voice again: “Get up for youchildren.” She quickly stoodup and walked to the hospitabathroom alone.

When Gina removed

herself from the bed, alarmwere set off, alerting thenursing staff. They rushed in

and looked at her in



amazement. They hadthought she would never walk

again! Eventually, Gina’heart began to regulate itselat 60 beats per minute. She

continued making progresswalking more and growingstronger. Finally, she waable to go home a few daylater. She thanked God and

the angels for her secondchance at life, but shecouldn’t stop wondering

about Hudson.



Gina decided to write athank-you card to the man

who saved her life. She wento the fire station, card inhand, “To Hudson” printed

on the envelope. Thefirefighter who answered thedoor remembered her. “Youcan walk?” he asked.

“Yes,” she replied, “but

really need to see Hudson. Hewas with you that day yourevived me.”

The gentleman responded



“I am so sorry, but there wano man named Hudson with

our crew that day. In my 11years at the Daisy MountainFire Department, we have

never had a Hudson workingwith us.”

Gina thanked thefirefighter and went back toher car. She looked up into

the blue sky, tears flowingdown her cheeks, and said, “know You sent me an ange

that fateful day. Thank You



God.” Now Gina is an avid

walker and is preparing toparticipate in local 5K’s focharity. Every day she walk

two to four miles, feeling thepresence of her angels by heside. She knows she isupported and is forevegrateful for the healing she

received.



When all the followingrequirements are fulfilled

then healing will occur: givepermission for the angels tohelp, listen for their guidance

take action steps, and expresgratitude. If your loved onesgive consent, you can prayfor healing on their behalftoo.

Nicole would havestomach pain so severe that ioccasionally led to vomiting

These bouts normally lasted



one day, but sometimes theylasted longer. She compared

the sensation to labocontractions! She would oftenbe reduced to tears, as the

pain wouldn’t ease.One episode had been

going on for two or threedays, with increasingintensity. Nicole lay in bed

losing hope; her healingmethods weren’t workingHer partner wanted to help

although he didn’t have much



spiritual knowledge aparfrom her occasionally talking

to him about angels.As Nicole lay there, she

felt her body relax as she

drifted off to sleep. While thepain didn’t go awaycompletely, she felt so muchbetter. When she awoke, hepartner asked if she fel

different. She reported thashe felt much better! He toldher he had imagined filling

her with pure white light. She



was surprised by the gestureand impressed that he had

come up with it intuitivelyShe thanked him and askedhim to use it in the future i

she was ever in pain. Nowadays, when Nicole

feels pain, she uses breathwork and visualization. Sheinhales pure light and exhale

stress, dark energy, pain, andanything else she want torelease. She uses the prayer

“I breathe in Divine light, and



I let go of pain. I am safe.”Almost always the pain ease

and is released from hebody.

Mariela Nikol no longe

invocation she found in aBulgarian energy-healingbook. She continues to repea



it every morning and eveningwith heartfelt emotion

iraculous Pain

revention



Prayer can certainly easepain, but it can also prevent i

from occurring in the firsplace. Rose Nickerson’miraculous story is very

touching—grab a tissuebefore reading it!

I was in the hospital, verysick and afraid. I’d collapsed

a few days before, and thedoctors didn’t know what wawrong. All the tests were

inconclusive. My arms were



bruised and swollen from alof the blood work and

injections, since I’m petitewith tiny veins.

It was early morning when

a nurse came for anotheblood draw to see if I wableeding internally. She waordered to take 15 vials! Andbecause my arms were in

such bad shape, she had todraw the blood from my handthe most painful place to

do it!



I was afraid of needles andin so much pain that I cried

The nurse said, “I’m so sorrybut we have to do this.” Shegave me ten minutes to

mentally prepare while shegathered her supplies.

I’d brought the book The

iracles of Archange

ichael to the hospital with

me and remembered readingthat Michael and Raphaework together. I said

repeatedly, “Please, God and



dearest Archangels Michaeand Raphael, I ask for you

help in getting through this asquickly and painlessly apossible. Please be here with

me now and negate my fearanxiety, and pain!”

The nurse returned, told meto lie back, and raised mybed. I closed my eyes and

envisioned Raphael’s healinggreen light surrounding me. felt Michael on my left side

and Raphael on my right



holding my hands.As the nurse drew the

blood, I was astonished that felt absolutely no pain. I wawarm and calm, even serene

as she drew 15 large testubes of blood from my handIt took about 20 full minutesand I didn’t even twinge. ust lay back on my pillow

and thanked God and thebeautiful archangels fohelping me.

Afterward, I told the nurse



about my message to thearchangels. She smiled at me

and said, “They’re alwayhere for us. We just need toask for their help.”

Later that day, it wasconfirmed that I wasn’bleeding internally and that iwas a bacterial infection thawas making me so sick. I wa

treated and was able to gohome two days later, with nomore tests or needles.



Rose’s story illustratesArchangel Raphael’

remarkable ability to helpthose in dire need. He makethe seemingly impossible

When Silvia’s teethbecame infected, her dentisrecommended extraction



However, since her bodycouldn’t tolerate anesthesia o

sedatives, she had to calupon Raphael. She told hedentist to pull out her infected

teeth without medication. Hewas against this decisionsaying she’d experienceterrible pain. But Silvia knewthat it was the right choice, so

the dentist finally agreed.Two days before theextraction, Silvia focused

upon meditation, prayers, and



communing with God andArchangel Raphael. She

asked him to protect her frompain and complications.

The day of her extraction

Silvia told her dentist, “It wilbe okay. I won’t be here; I’lbe in the woods.” They bothlaughed, and as he preparedto extract her teeth, Silvia

visualized green energy andlight from ArchangeRaphael.

After two yanks, the teeth



came out—completelypainlessly! The dentist was

impressed, and told her thahe didn’t understand how iwas possible. She explained a

bit about meditation andencouraged him to try it. Thewounds healed rapidlyafterward.

Silvia says, “I know now

how truly connected I am toArchangel Raphael.”



ands-on Spiritual

ealing

There are many types ospiritual healing availableEach one has its own terms

qualifications, and methodsin truth, however, they are alone. The angels say it is like

water coming from ashowerhead. To us, they mayappear to be individua



streams of water, but inreality, they are all coming

from one source. If thespiritual healing is anchoredin the Light, it will be coming

from our Creator.During a spiritual healing

session, practitioners channeDivine energy from theuniverse and into you. They

shouldn’t be using their ownenergy. Instead, therapistshould step out of their egos

and allow the healing energy



to go to the areas in which it’needed most, according to

God’s infinite wisdom.Spiritual healing isn’t to be

used to diagnose—only

medical professionals can dothis. However, it can be anexcellent supportive tool fomanaging pain. Allow youintuition to guide you to the

right practitioner. Only seehealers who are happy andinspiring. If you feel drained

or exhausted following a



session, consider findingsomeone else.

Spiritual healing caninclude flower or crystatherapy, which we mentioned

earlier. All the energies worktogether beautifully, and thetreatment is tailor-made foyou. Following their ownguidance, healers may place

their hands on the body oust above it. Physical contacisn’t important, because they

are working on an energetic



level. You can even havespiritual healing performed

over a long distance, as theenergy of God is limitless. Ican travel through time and

space to be with each of ussimultaneously.

A spiritual healing sessionis like a spa session for yousoul. It recharges the batteries

and activates your body’innate wisdom. It helps youmind to process the signal o

pain and react appropriately



It connects you with youangels more easily, so tha

you can hear, feel, see, or jus“know” their guidanceWhatever form it takes, you

will be able to tell when amessage is Heaven-sent. Youmay get information abouyour diet, careerrelationships, fitness

finances, or another concernthat may be linked to youpain.



Spiritual healing canrelease even long-term painin miraculous ways, as Saskia

Gingrich discovered. Saskiawas in three car accidentwithin the space of 18

months. The first twoaccidents gave her mildwhiplash and a fractured

wrist. But in the last accidentshe tore muscles all aroundher neck, leading to



excruciating pain. She had towear a neck brace for six

months to achieve some leveof comfort.

Saskia went to physica

therapy four days a weekreceiving massage, ultrasoundtreatments, and water therapyUnfortunately, nothingprovided any relief. The

physician wasn’t sure whaelse he could do for her. Shecould barely move her neck

and suffered daily headache



and neck pain.One evening, she called a

friend, looking for somedistraction from her pain. Hefriend said she was about to

see a medium, and Saskiadecided to tag along, tooAlthough she had never beento a medium, she did believein angels and communication

with deceased loved onesand was curious about whawould happen.

When they arrived, they



were met by a cute Englishcouple in their 70s, who

invited them into their livingroom and made them bothvery comfortable. Four othe

clients joined them, too. Theman indicated he was themedium and his wife was anurse and psychic healer.

The man began doing

psychometry (picking up onthe energy of metallic itemssuch as jewelry) on object

his guests gave him, and



described what healthproblems he saw. Saskia

thought that he’d have aneasy time diagnosing her withher neck brace. She wa

surprised when he ignoredher whiplash and insteaddescribed her difficultybreathing; he said he felt thashe had to lean forward to

catch a breath. Five yearearlier, she’d had surgery fospontaneous pneumothorax

(collapsed lung). She nearly



died and had been in thehospital for a month. Prior to

her surgery, the only way shecould breathe was to leanforward.

The medium thendescribed a man standingbehind her. He was tall, withbushy black eyebrows—hefather. The medium heard

him say, “Strength, SaskiaYou must have strength.”Those were the exact words

her dad would use to try to



comfort her!At the end of the session

Saskia and her friend wereinvited to stay for a cup otea. While they were sitting

there, the man’s wife said toSaskia that she could hardlythink, as she felt Saskia’pain. Saskia replied that shewas in constant agony. The

woman asked if she couldperform a psychic healingwith assurances that she

would not touch her and tha



she could do no harm. Saskiaconsented; she figured there

was no harm in tryingsomething different.

The woman sat in front o

Saskia and began passing hehands over her body, fromher head down to heshoulders and back uprepeatedly. Slowly Saskia fel

heat coming from her handsIt grew more and moreintense. Suddenly, she felt the

pain miraculously leave



through the top of her headSaskia wept with gratitude

and relief as the healing tookplace.

Two days later, she had

another physical-therapysession. The therapist wastunned that she hadrecovered full range omotion in her neck! He

doctors could find noremnants of the debilitatinginjury she had endured for six

months.



A few weeks later, Saskiatried to find the healers to

thank them for giving heback her life, but they haddisappeared. These Earth

Angels were sent to help heand then vanished. NowSaskia has embraced her ownhealing gifts and intuitionand enjoys living a pain-free

life.



The body absorbs healingenergy and reacts to provide

maximal comfort. Sometimesthat means people fall asleepin order to heal.

Emily Southall’s daughtewas complaining of a painfuearache one night. Emilyoffered her conventionachildren’s painkillers, but he

daughter would not takethem. Perhaps on an intuitivelevel, the girl knew they

would only mask the pain



Emily tried to contact theihomeopath for advice, but she

was unavailable.Her young daughter was

screaming in pain, and Emily

felt helpless. She paced theroom, thinking of how shecould help. Then sheremembered her Reiktraining that she recently

completed!She walked over to hedaughter and lay her head on

her lap. Carefully Emily



placed her hands over hedaughter’s ears and called on

the angels as quickly as shecould. Within a minute hedaughter had fallen asleep

She later awoke with a hugesmile on her face, all paingone.

All spiritual healingmethods can bring relief foboth people and animal



alike. Lisa Aston is anAustralian Animal Reik

Practitioner and AnimaCommunicator. Shediscovered Reiki’s pain

relieving qualities whenworking with her animacompanions.

One of Lisa’s first clientswas a ten-year-old Siberian

husky, Tang, who wasuffering from multiple healthissues. He had lower moto

neuron disease, epilepsy



pancreatitis, throat cancerand a large mass in hi

stomach. As a puppy, Tanghad been given a lifeexpectancy of less than two

years. Maria, his owner, hadexhausted every veterinarynaturopathic, and herbatreatment available. At thetime Lisa was contacted, a

specialist had just given Tangthree more weeks to live. Tosay that Maria was devastated

would be an understatement



How could she continuewithout her dear friend?

Although Maria knew thashe should focus onmitigating her dog’s pain, in

her heart she hoped for acure.

As Lisa entered Maria’home, her heart sank. The bighusky could barely stand on

his legs, and needed heassistance to lift his back endHis eyes were tired, and he

was physically exhausted



Lisa was petrified; shewondered what she could

possibly do to help him(Later, Lisa would learn tha“she” had little to do with the

healing process. As shetrusted in the Reiki andallowed the energy to flowher clients would receivewhatever they needed.)

Tang appeared to be awareof why Lisa was visitingThis was one of her mos

valuable lessons; her anima



clients could intuitively knowher true intentions. He lay

quietly on the floor, in aspace that allowed Lisa fulaccess to him. She sat two

feet away, then began hehealing. She drew sacredsymbols using her hands andplaced them in his aura. Hegazed at her with a look o

gratitude and wisdom, a lookthat Lisa still recalls vividly.Lisa was hesitant to offe

hands-on healing because the



dog’s body was frail fromdis-ease, though he bravely

handled it without complaintHowever, he kept looking aher and beckoning her to

come closer. As Lisa inchedforward, he kept his gaze onher until she placed her handson the side of his body. Fothe next hour, Lisa intuitively

moved around him, trustingwhere the energy was neededmost. Tang relaxed into a

deep sleep.



During her healing sessionwith humans, Lisa would

occasionally see visions otheir lives. It gave her insighinto her clients’ health, and

she would share thesemessages with them. Thiwas the first time she hareceived these intuitiveimpressions when working on

an animal. She resistedsharing what she saw at firstbecause she felt it migh

discredit her as a practitioner



Lisa saw fascinating visionof Tang in ancient China. Hi

energy explained that in aprior life, he had been anemperor. Lisa called on he

angels and chose to sharethese messages with Maria. Iturned out that Maria had adeep passion for ancienChinese history and had

many books and videos onthe subject.Over the course of Lisa’s

sessions with Tang, he



continued to share manymore insights with her. He

told her of things he loved todo, such as swimming in aparticular place with crysta

clear waters, eating ice creamout of a little bucket, andsitting in a child’s wadingpool. As Lisa shared all othis, Maria listened to and

acknowledged his requeststaking Tang to the places shedescribed. She laughed and

said that Tang’s ice-cream





and Maria. She knows thathe healing sessions made a

difference in their lives, andshe learned in turn about thelove that the animal kingdom

has to share.

Your own healing journeymay inspire you to learn

about many healing therapiesKeep in mind that spirituahealing can work wonderfully



as an adjunct to conventionatreatment methods, as Cindy

Glavao learned.Cindy had her firs

encounter with an angel when

she was six years old, afteshe was hit by a pickup truckwhile crossing a highway innorthern British ColumbiaCanada. The impact threw he

body across the highway intoa ditch on the opposite sideAmazingly, she maintained

consciousness after the



accident, and when shelooked up, she saw the mos

amazing sight. To this dayCindy still remembers themagnificent colors of gold

pink, and purple. She sawsparkles of light of everycolor of the rainbow, andenormous auras that toweredover here. Cindy sensed an

incredible depth of love; inher heart, she knew thaeverything would be okay

She felt cared for in an



indescribable way.At the time Cindy didn’

know anything about angelsWhen she later discovered themagical realm of angels, she

learned that she was alwaysDivinely protected in always. With the healingsupport of her angels, sheexperienced a comfortable

and pain-free life.Many years later, Cindywas devastated by the tragic

passing of her young son



This led her on a spirituaourney to learn more abou

the angels, energy healingand other topics. Eventuallyshe became a Reiki master.

During one of her healingsessions, Cindy had anincredible experience withArchangel Raphael. She waworking on a young woman

who was undergoingtreatments for cancer. She’dcome to Cindy for comfor

and support while continuing



with conventional treatmentsCindy was sending energy

into the woman’s back andvisualizing her in perfechealth when she suddenly

saw the very same thing shewitnessed all those years agoShe saw an intense green withsparkles of light all aroundand clearly heard the word

“This healing is done, andagain it’s done!”Cindy knew immediately

that this young woman had



been healed. She felt animmense amount of gratitude

and love, and had a hard timemaintaining her composure. Iwas a truly moving and

beautiful experience. Thayoung woman is now in fulremission. She lives a full andadventure-filled life as afirefighter while also going to

school. Spiritual healingproved to be the perfecaccompaniment to

conventional treatments.





CHAPTER ELEVEN

HONORING YOURSENSITIVITY



Lightworkers are sensitivepeople who can be easily

affected by others’ emotionaenergy, even to the point ophysical pain. A lightworke

is someone who has a soupurpose to bring more light tothe planet, whether throughspreading joy, laughterhealing, or spiritual wisdom

There are many forms that alightworker can take. Foyou, it may be as a parent to

sensitive children, as a kind



and compassionate friend, oas a healer and psychic.

Everyone comes to Earthwith a soul-enriching lifepurpose. To bring about more

enlightenment, you may havechosen to learn patience, howto deal with grief, or how tospeak up in difficulsituations. Some people, bu

not all, also come to Earthwith a global purpose. Thesesouls have chosen to have no

ust a personal purpose bu



also one that involves othersIt may be advocating fo

animal welfare, bringingawareness of our foodquality, or teaching spiritua

workshops and introducingpeople to angels. Theseglobal purposes are gifts tosensitive souls who wilfollow the light to complete

their important mission. Youguardian angels know whayour purposes are. They were

standing right by you as you





activities, and the ego knowthat your purpose wil

eradicate fear. So your egocontinually urges you todelay working on your life

purpose. The ego distractyou with other projectsincluding physical illness opain, so that you won’t do alof the fear-lifting work tha

you are destined to do.In fact, I (Doreen) found inmy counseling practice tha

the bigger someone’s life



purpose was, the bigger theamount of fear he or she had

To put it another way, themore people you signed up tohelp, the louder your ego i

going to scream, “No, you’renot qualified! You can’t helpanyone! You’re not readyWhat if you fail?” and otheuntruths. The truth is that you

are ready to help others, andyou can do so even whenyour body doesn’t seem to be

100 percent ready. In fact, al



of your experiences with painhave made you extremely

compassionate to others insimilar situations. This makeyou extra-qualified to help

those who are sufferingbecause you know what it’slike!

It may seem radical tothink that we’ve chosen these

situations for ourselves, yewe do so for the sake ogrowth. If we continue to do

the same things we’ve alway



done, then we’ll get the sameresults we’ve always gotten

Instead, we wish to challengeourselves so that we can learnmore, feel new emotions, and

expand our souls’ knowledgeIt helps us to appreciate thecontrast. As they say, onlywhen it rains do weremember to be grateful fo

the sunshine.If you resonate with thiconcept, you may be highly

sensitive to energies. Pay



close attention to youfeelings in various situations

You may find that spendingtime with complaininggossipy friends literally give

you a headache. This isbecause you’re taking on theharsh energies of their words

otice what days your pain isparticularly bad, and notice

whom you’ve been aroundotice what the energy fellike and the topics o

conversation you took part in



These are all keys tounderstanding how to

eliminate pain from your life.Listen to your heart—i

holds all the answers. When

you ask your heart seriouquestions, it always answerwith love. Ask it if certainpeople are enriching your lifeor if they are sending you

negativity. The angels saythat the people you spendyour time with affect you in

either a positive or negative



way. Their energy interactwith yours and can create an

uplifting effect, or adepressing one.

If you feel tired after being

around certain people, avoidthem. Keep your circle ofriends filled with highenergy, happy people. Yeswe are human and are

allowed moments of sadnessYet when our hearts are filledwith joy, we bounce righ

back up and focus on the



light. So be courageous andrelease negative and draining

people from your lifePerhaps try it for just a weekyou’ll notice the profound

and healing difference that imakes. This may persuadeyou to try letting them go foa month, and then longer.

We don’t blame these

people for their harsh energyInstead, we find that ibecomes a moment to pray

We can focus our light upon



them in the hopes that theywill join us in a happy, high

energy, peaceful placeImagine yourself much like ahelium balloon—if you attach

yourself to heaviness, it wilalways be hard to fly. If youchoose instead to surroundyourself with lightness, thepossibilities become endless.





you negative energy; it jushappens as they slip into thei

egos and have lower-energythoughts concerning you. Foexample, perhaps you once

purchased a new bag. As youwent out to lunch with youfriends, one of them wishedshe had your bag instead ohers. In this instance, she

slipped into the energy oealousy and inadvertentlylaunched a psychic attack.

The physical sensation o



psychic-attack energy ipainful. Imagine knives

spears, bullets, axes, andother weapons that arecreated out of fear. The pain

is very physical, yet thesource is purely energetic.

This energy can lodgeitself anywhere in your bodyThe most common places are

around the shoulders. Iyou’ve had painful, tenseshoulders for no apparen

reason, now you know why



The lesson, however, is not toreturn the favor and send an

attack back to the initiaperpetrator. This would onlycontinue the cycle of fea

energy, which isn’something you want toexchange. Instead, send suchpeople love. They sent younegative energy because they

slipped into fear mode. If yousurround them with lovingthoughts and angels, they wil

become uplifted.



When we raise ouvibration, we celebrate each

other’s success instead otrying to compete. In spirituatruth, there’s more than

enough for everyone. Theangels show us images inwhich we are all born with atreasure chest, containing thesame opportunities a

everyone else on Earth.It’s up to you to decidewhether you will open the

treasure chest of your dream



or leave it sealed. Once youchoose to open it, you wil

realize that there’s no suchthing as “luck.” You deserveeverything that comes you

way. The more open andreceiving you are, the morethe angels can bring you.

Competing is a trap of theego. It wants us to think tha

in order for us to havesomething, we need to take ifrom someone else.

Don’t listen to this limiting



voice; it will only bring youmore pain. You have free

will. If you no longer wanthe low energy of psychicattack to be connected to you

it can be released. Calling onyour angels creates a highenergy clearing.

Unfortunately, it appearthat the more successful

happy, and healthy youbecome, the more peopleseem to send psychic attacks

This is why it’s so incredibly



important to only spend timewith loving individuals

These people will be proud oyou and supportive of youourney. They will understand

that just because you havesomething, it doesn’t meanthat they can’t have it, too.

Psychic-Attack

Clearing



Find a quiet space whereyou won’t be disturbed. You

can lie down, but we havefound that sitting uprighworks the best. Sit on the

edge of a bed or scooforward on a chair. This wayyour back and shoulders arefree and easily accessibleClose your eyes and focus on

your breathing. Take slowdeep breaths in and outContinue this for two or three

minutes to relax. There’s no



need to rush healing. Nowcall upon Archangel Raphae

by saying:


Raphael, please be here bymy side. I ask for your

heavenly assistance right

now. Please clear away any

forms of psychic attack or

lower energy lodged withinmy body and aura. I am

willing to let this go and send

loving angels in exchange.



Help me to feel pain-free,

relaxed, and supported. I

know you will defuse all psychic attacks right now,

painlessly and effortlessly.

Thank you.”

You may get sensationrunning through your body aRaphael conducts his healing

Just surrender to the momentand allow your angels to dowhat they do best. You may

get visions of the archange

and dissolving all unhealthyaspects of your relationship.

Next visualize Archange

body that felt pain. It alsoprevents the attack fromreturning for some time.



White-Rose Clearing

Purchase a fresh white rosefrom your local florist, or clip

one from your own garden foan even stronger connectionto the flower. The white roseis associated with ArchangeMichael, who helps release

negative energies; ArchangeMetatron, who brings ubalance and clears our chakra

system; and Archange



Raphael, our supreme healerSo this one blossom i

connected with threepowerful archangels who alhave a unified goal of helping

and clearing you. By workingwith the white rose, you’reinviting these angels to youside and giving thempermission to heal you.

Find a safe space to cleathis heavy energy from youaura. Once you’re

comfortable and prepared



you can begin. Say:

“I ask that this white roseplease clear me of all lower

energy. I am willing to let go

of any psychic attacksoriginating from others. By

doing so, I affirm peace for

all involved.”

Move the white rosethrough your aura, spendingextra time over your head and

shoulders, as this is where



psychic-attack energy wilcommonly sit. As you wave

the white rose around youbody, you may feel variousensations, signaling that the

negativity is released. (Youcan also have a friend oloved one move the roseabout you.)

When you feel that the

process is complete, you havetwo options. You can placethe rose in a small vase o

glass of water and allow it to



continue clearing your roomOr you can ceremoniously

toss the rose into the gardengiving the energy back toMother Earth.

Crystals for Clearing

Psychic Attacks

You can move specific



crystals through your aura toeliminate lower energies and

create harmony. As you purgenegative vibrations, yourelease the pain that came

along with them.

— Selenite wands arewonderful for clearingpsychic attacks and can be

purchased inexpensively. Idoesn’t matter whether thecrystal is polished or rough—

the energy is the same. A



you slowly draw the selenitethrough your aura, you’ll be

pulling out all projections ofear. This is a great practiceafter spending time with

negative people, or when youhave been in a group settingSelenite brings you strengthheals your insecurities, andshows you that you’re

Divinely powerful in always.

— Amethyst is an



excellent psychic protectorYou can move the crysta

through your aura to releasepsychic-attack energy. It hathe added bonus o

transmuting low energy intothe high energy of joy. All thethings that no longer serveyou can willingly be releasedin exchange for happiness

Let go of the old so there isenough room to welcome inthe new.

Call upon your angels and



place an amethyst crystal onyour brow. This wil

eliminate those negativethoughts from clouding youfuture. The benefit o

carrying or wearing amethysis a continuous flow opositive thoughts that wilshape your bright andpositive future.

Clearing the energy o



psychic attack is somethingyou must regularly do. We

don’t want you to becomefocused on negativity, but docheck in with yoursel

frequently.

hielding

Once you remove the

energy of pain, you’ll want to



keep it away, so spend timestrengthening your aura and

shielding it. It would be aperfect world if we didn’have the need for shielding

However, not everyone hathe same loving outlook onlife that you have. Thereforeit’s best to engage in thipractice, especially before

going to crowded places oevents.Some people think tha

shielding is a way o



anticipating attack. They feethat it’s an affirmation to the

universe to send negativeenergy toward you. When weasked the angels, they said

that it was just like lockingyour front door. If you leaveyour door open, it allowanyone and anything to enterIn closing that passage, you

still have access to the littlepeephole on the door. Youget to decide which vibration

can enter and which ones stay



outside.Your particular situation

will determine how often youneed to invoke your shield. Ageneral guideline is to

practice this twice daily: oncein the morning when you geup, then again in the eveningas you go to bed. Mosshields last for approximately

12 hours. However, whenexposed to harsh energy, youshield may weaken faste

than normal. When



surrounded by negativepeople or difficult situations

invoke your shield everyhour, if needed. Ask theangels to give you clear sign

that you need to shieldyourself again. They maysend you physical sensationsor the thought of shieldingmay just pop into your mind

Take a moment to do so, andnotice the difference it makein your day.

The following are al





medicine for healing woundand clearing infection. When

taken as a tea, however, itenergetic properties shinethrough.

Drink a cup or two and youwill feel stronger, morestable, and less influenced byothers’ emotions. It’s anexcellent travel companion in

a to-go mug when visitinggossipy friends or groupenvironments. You can be

constantly shielding yourself



and no one will know whayou are doing. Drinking a

simple cup of tea is all youneed to do to keep youenergy pure and clean.

Angel Cocoon

Visualize a stream ominiature angels gliding

down from Heaven. As they



get closer, they begin to spiraaround you. They start at the

top of your head and floaaround your body—both fronand back. They continue al

the way down to the base oyour feet, forming a neverending connection from youto Heaven. As the angelcome close to you, they pick

up and release negativityEach one who leaves to takeaway this low energy i

simply replaced by a new



angel.The angel cocoon is very

cleansing and comfortingOften you’ll hear gigglingand laughter in addition to the

sound of fluttering wings.

Amethyst Cave

Imagine that you’re sitting

inside a giant cave made o



beautiful amethyst. You’resurrounded by the protective

purple light that the crystalsemit. Every crystal point iabsorbing lower energie

from your body and aura, anddetoxing you from heavinesand pain. Once all darkness iremoved, the crystal pointinfuse your body with

healing.The amethyst caveawakens your intuitive

abilities and strengthens you



connection to the angels. Thiis an excellent meditation to

do prior to visitingmetaphysical fairs or givingspeeches of a spiritual nature.

liquid rubber that’s cooling



down. This is a speciaprotective substance tha

deflects negativity andpsychic-attack energycausing them to bounce of

like a ball. This shield is thesame color as Michael’s auraroyal blue.

you can. I am willing toreceive all the guidance and

healing you have for me.
