S.A.C. Healing Therapy (Spiritual Alignment Connection Healing)

Guest Post written by Lynda Ward

This is an extremely powerful FIVE part energy healing therapy. This involves the practitioner using their hands to focus their attention on bringing balance into the chakra system of the client. The practitioner uses 

A series of different moves to clear blockages and energy cysts within the chakra system and auric field of the client. This facilitates healing on all levels: physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. In many cases emotional blockages are considerably reduced. This therapy assists in the reduction of neck, back and leg pain. People who have experienced this healing therapy report increased levels of self esteem, self confidence and inner peace. 

The S.A.C. (The Spiritual Alignment Connection) works on stimulating DNA strands and meridians points through out the body. The meridians are tangible pathways that carry life force energy into and out of the body. Every organ and physiological system: lymphatic, endocrine, central nervous system, reproductive, skeletal, digestive, circulatory is served by at least one major meridian, and every cell of the body is accessible via the intricate pathway of meridians. The meridian system is the ‘energy bloodstream’ that brings vitality, balance, and cellular regeneration to every part of the body. This allows the practitioner to charge the meridian which in turn balances the physical organ. This is a great way to keep all of systems charged and working at full charge.

Indigo Biofeedback Machines

An Indigo biofeedback machine uses similar technologies as the MRI, CT scan, EEG, and ECG. All measure the electrical activity of the body to provide information about the state of the client’s health. Every cell in our body operates with a certain electrical frequency.

Stress, toxins, physical and emotional trauma, heredity, lifestyle, etc, produce erractic vibrations that lead to an imbalance of these frequencies. You could compare the Indigo machine to that of a virus scan on a computer. One benefit of this machine is that you don’t need a referal from a doctor, nor do you have to wait months for the procedure.

It is accurate and sensitive enough to measure your electro dermal response to over 10,000 items/issues. The Indigo reveals anything that is negatively affecting health, such as nutitional defiencies, toxins, hormone levels, muscle tone, disease, bacteria, viruses, stress, health and imbalance of internal organs. For example, if someone has digestive trouble, the Indigo may show that person to have had food poisoning as a child, which is causing current health issues. Illnesses as a child can linger on into adulthood, if not corrected. If a person is chronically tired, it could show an energy imbalance. Headaches could show show up as a vertebra out of alignment.

The great news is that the Indigo machine is more than just an analysis tool! After measuring the body’s electrical frequencies, the Indigo feeds back it’s own frequencies to redress, or neutralize destructive wave patterns. It’s an exceptional device for use with children, because they often are unable verbally to communicate their symptoms. A session could show food allergies, or toxicities, which could be the underlying issues causing learning disabilities, colic, ear infections, any health ailments.

How? It ultilizes five comfortable conductive straps with sensors that measure electro dermal response on the wrists, ankles, and forehead. This data offers an understanding of your body ,of your possible needs, dysfunctions, and vulnerabilities.This sophisticated machine works to re train harmony to the physical and emotional body. It’s excellent for pain management.

A local practitioner has this amazing Indigo machine (only one presently in the province), and will be offering this service in the new year.

To learn more about the Indigo, and other alternative health modalities, attend a free info session at the Maritime Motorsports Hall of Fame in Petitcodiac on Jan.28/12 , in Moncton on Feb.4/12 . Both are 1-4pm . These educational sessions are being presented by naturotherapists Lynda Ward, Janet Smith, and Tammy Taylor. There will be draws for complimentary sessions. Please call Tammy @ A Caring Light to reserve your spot. 215-0117

Tammy would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year, and is offering 10% off massages, acupuncture, reflexology, and reiki during January.

The Power of Being Positive

We can’t control what life does to us, but we can control how we react to what life does.

How we start our day, determines how our day goes. If we wake up thinking it’s going to be an awful day, guess what, it will be!

Never underestimate the power of positive thinking!! Our thoughts really do affect how we react to life.

It’s so important to see the glass half full, instead of half empty. To see the silver lining in the cloud. Our thought processing center can’t be in two places at once, so when you start thinking negatively, literally tell yourself to stop, and make yourself think of something positive. If you have to, say something positive over and over again (affirmations), even if you do not believe what you’re saying, your words get taken in by your subconscious mindand the subconscious controls many aspects of our lives.

We have an energy frequency, which is measured in megaHertz. The more positive we are, the higher our frequency , and we attract the same. For example you can not tune your radio to 96.9, and expect to hear 103.9.  Thus we can only attract positive,  if we are being positive!

Loise Hay, an author, who has done extensive work with emotions, states, “What we think about ourselves,  becomes the truth for us. When we create peace and harmony and balance in our minds, we will find it in our lives.”

There are numerous, inspirational/motivational books, and web sites (simpletruths.com), which have positive quotes and affirmations. I suggest starting your day off with these, to help you have the best day possible. It may not be easy at first, but all things become easier with practice.

Remember, if you become inspired, you will inspire others, and they will… it’s a domino effect! Ever watch the movie” Pay It Forward”? I highly recommend it!

Here are some quotes/affirmations:
“People often tell me motivation doesn’t last, and I tell them bathing doesn’t either. That’s why I recommend it daily” Zig Ziglar
“Input influences outlook, outlook influences output, and output determines outcome.”  Anonymous
“Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase”  Martin Luther King
“Decision is the spark that ignites action. Until a decision is made nothing happens”  Wilfred A. Peterson
“Never lose sight of the fact that the most important yardstick of success, will be how you treat other people.” Barbara Bush
“Do what you can, with what you have, where you are”  Theodore Roosenvelt
“It’s nice to be important, but more important to be nice”   Anonymous

Heal, De-stress and Relax: Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese form of stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is based on the Asian concept of life energy and is done by “laying on hands”. A subtle energy flows from the hands of the practitioner into the client, and it’s this energy that creates the relaxation and healing effect. It often feels like a warming sensation on the area being worked on.

In Japan this energy is called Ki (key). Ki is in everything; plants, animals, humans, food, water, earth, sunlight…

The Ki within the physical body, mind, and emotions are affected by our thoughts and feelings. If we have positive ones, our Ki will be strengthened, and we will be more confident, have more energy, enthusiasm, and be more likely to succeed at what we do.

The scientific theory of Reiki shows that some of the healing aspects of it have been demonstrated to exist using known laws of physics and biology. An important part of functioning of the human body is it’s electrical nature. You have electrical currents flowing through the nerves, blood, all organs and cells. These currents are weak compared with the electrical current flowing through the wiring in your home, but they are exactly the right strength for the human body, and are a necessary part of sustaining life.

All illness starts first in the human energy field before manifesting in the physical body.

The human energy field is a matrix of subtle energy fields that surround and penetrate the physical body. These fields contain the blueprints for the physical body and tell the organs, tissues, and cells what to do, and how to function. The energy fields also contain blueprints for our emotions, thoughts, and higher levels of consciousness.

Ki (subtle energy) is affected by the mind, causing it to support our health, or to move us toward toward dysfunction, illness, and disease.

During a Reiki session, this energy (Ki) flows into the client’s energy field and around the organs and tissues, helping to remove “bad” Ki. The natural flow of “good” Ki is restored along with the person’s health. Reiki provides a higher level of nurturing to the body’s organs and tissues. It also works on the mind, emotions, and spirit. This makes us feel better than before.

A session feels good and relaxing. It helps develop wonderful feelings of joy, peace, love, and confidence. When we feel good or peaceful on the “inside” it helps decrease our physical pain. Reiki also works well when applied to an injured area, or any area affected by pain, whether it is from arthritis, or just soreness from tense muscles caused by stress. Reiki helps decrease anxiety, and can help lift us when feeling depressed.

Metamorphic Massage

There is a complementary health treatment called Metamorphic Massage (also called Metamorphic Touch or Technique). It helps mentally, emotionally, phsically and spiritually.

It involves energy work. We have energy circulating in and around our bodies. I compare this energy to the wind. We can’t physically see it, but we can feel it, and see it’s effect. For example, the wind makes tree branches move, kites fly, blows strewn garbage.

Metamorphic massage originated back in the 1960′s from Robert St.John, a British naturopath and reflexologist, and in the 70′s Gaston St.Pierre saw the potential for the development of a practical tool, that would help with self healing.

Energy underlies all forms of life. Our energy can become blocked, and get “stuck” in paticular patterns. Every cell that makes up our body and mind holds memories of our experinces, not only from childhood, but even from our time in our mother’s womb. What our mother experinced during our gestation deeply affects us.

When an experince affects us strongly, the thoughts, emotions, and beliefs connected to that memory can set up energy patterns in which we become “stuck”. In a sense they keep us stuck in the past. These energy patterns can express themselves in a variety of ways, such as physical or mental illness, emotitional problems, limiting attitudes and beliefs, or repeating patterns of behaviour. Ever wonder why we keep doing the same things over and over again, even though we keep getting the same negative result or response from this behaviour.

Metamorphic Massage sees all mental, emotional, physical and behavioural problems as symptoms or expressions of energy patterns, which may have developed while in mother’s womb, or from early childhood experinces. We need help to get “unstuck” from these repetitive, negative patterns.

A Metamorphic massage session is approx. one hour, and is done with clothes on. By using a light touch to the spinal reflex points of the head, spine, hands and feet,
the metamorphic practitioner acts as a catalyst (something that speeds up a process of change) to a person’s energy, thus helping bring about whatever changes of energy patterns that are needed. This enables the person to naturally shift those behavioural patterns that no longer serve them. The energy that was “stuck” is released, freeing them up from past influences, and allowing them to let go, and move forward. So many of us hang on, as we don’t like change, even though these changes usually are beneficial.

The sessions are non diagnostic. The practitioner is just a facilitator, helping the client’s energy to move along, to “let go” , so metamorphosis is really about self healing. It creates greater consciousness within, has the goal of bringing the client into the “present moment”. Many of us are either thinking about the past (“wish I had of or hadn’t done this or that”), OR we are thinking about the future( “I’m going to do this or that”), instead of enjoying the present moment. This causes unnecessary stress.

Our muscular system reflects the degree of underlying mental tension, and this tension leads to muscular aches and pain. Often people cannot relax or stay relaxed for any length of time, because the tension is mental rather than muscular. People with alot of underlying mental/emotional stress usually find a Metamorphic massage to be surprisingly relaxing, and may drift into a light sleep.

Great appreciation is given to Anne-Marie Arsenault, Metamorphosis course instructor, who lovingly taught much of this information and the technique.

Come experince this awesome treatment and learn to “let go”. During June, receive 20% off Metamorphic Massage! Call Tammy @ A Caring Light (215-0117/ 961-9905)
