The brain transmits signals to the rest of the body through the nerves, through the spinal cord, to our organs. If the spine is in any way misaligned physically and/or energetically; our movements, breathing, and body’s systems are impacted. This in turn creates interruptions in flow in all our subtle bodies as well, emotional, mental, and spiritual.
The spine plays a major role in our daily life and homeostasis. Healthy stimulation to the spine and spinal column allow certain parts of the nervous system to help deal with overactive systems and other parasympathetic functions. I am going to be facilitating this energetically rather than physically. I receive similar sessions monthly from my amazing Master Energy Therapist, and he has given me his blessing to extend what is moving through me to you.
As promised in previous posts, more of my personal spine story. This sharing is not about the story for me, but about the miraculous transformation that we ALL have the ability to experience in our lives. Our bodies know how to heal themselves from anything. We must believe it, support it through frequencies, and honor the natural process.
I was nine years old when I was diagnosed with progressive scoliosis. I have two curves that formed a backwards “S”. I went through shock therapy for a short period of time. That proved to be brutal to my body and my psyche, as you can imagine. I ended up wearing back braces until I was sixteen, full time until I was fifteen, then intermittently.
I was released at the age of eighteen and told that we had gotten my two curves balanced, each at thirty-five degrees curvature. I was advised that once we reach skeleton maturation, our curves can no longer further develop or curve. It was believed that I was stable, and could go about life normally.
At the age of twenty-eight it was discovered that my curvatures had progressively developed, each at over seventy degrees. I was in the more recently discovered five percent of people whose progressive scoliosis continued to be progressive throughout the duration of their life.
I went to the doctor since I was having much difficulty with internal organs, including my lungs. Breathing became more and more labored, and my back pain was immense.
I was an active young adult; hiking, mountaineering, and other adventures I dabbled in such as repelling, white water rafting, and the like. The outdoors were my everything, and to connect my body with the elements was life giving to me.
I was advised the sooner the better to have a radical reconstructive surgery of almost the full length of my back, from T2 to L2. Without the surgery, I was given a life expectancy of ten more years at most, much of which I would be crippled. I was also told it would most likely have to have a second surgery in ten years in order to prolong my life, as my scoliosis would continue to develop.
With surgery, I was given a fifty-fifty chance of survival, which also came with a fifty-fifty chance of paralysis. It all looked bleak indeed. Without second thought, I already knew I had found the best surgeon in the Dallas area. He even traveled internationally for humanitarian efforts for children and young adults in similar situations of a lesser quality and projected tenure of life.
I agreed to do the surgery soon, and felt optimistic about it. My husband and I had only recently moved to Texas from Colorado for work. We had not even found a house, but were renting an apartment with some things in storage. We both had started new jobs, but his was less than a month long position with a new company. My Mom stayed with us for over a month to assist with my rehab. I cannot say how paramount this was. Our lives as we knew it could change a lot in a short time.
Flash forward. That was twenty-five years ago this year. I live a great quality of life, and have most of my years. Having been born with a muscle-skeletal physical ailment, I definitely have experienced many trickle down effects of this as well. However, I have never felt a victim. I have never felt beaten. I have never given up on life.
This is a very brief summary of a lifetime of what we would label physical trauma in society. What has been my biggest saving grace? Energy Healing and Holistic modalities and practices, which go way beyond the physical body. I was told by my surgeon’s Physician Assistant one day, in my process of a three year difficult recovery from the reconstructive surgery, that I DID NOT HAVE A CHOICE but to be on pain medication the rest of my life. I had been to seventeen pain specialists with no relief.
That is all it took, was someone telling me I DID NOT HAVE A CHOICE! That changed my entire life! To interject here, DO NOT EVER ACCEPT THIS AS TRUTH! I walked out of that office that day, told them they would never see me again, and went straight to a Chinese Medicine Doctor. This was where my holistic journey of healing mind, body, and spirit began.
I continue to this day to receive healing sessions in order to remain in homeostasis and harmony. I facilitate Energy Healing of several modalities and practices for myself daily, and multiple times a day often. I have created a quality of life where I truly LIVE life, in each NOW moment. Each trial I experience, I go in deeper to wounds and follow the guidance in allowing them to heal. The biggest thing through all of this has always been my mindset. The power of intention is monumental, life changing, life giving.
I share because there is no diagnosis or prognosis that we cannot heal from. I have seen RADICAL healing in so many people worldwide. It starts with self-care, acceptance, embracing of self, love of self, determination, commitment, and doing what is necessary to support the mind, body, and spirit in its own innate wisdom. We can hinder this process, or aid it.
I invite you to join me on February 22, 2/22, for Divine Spine. This is a new healing I will be offering monthly. It includes a vast array of energy healing modalities and sacred tools that connect us to the Divine, and the Divinity within us. That place where our innate wisdom is held.
Sign up today if this calls for you. Although it is called Divine Spine, and my story touches mostly on the spine, I would not even be close to the person I am today without healing mind, body, and spirit as a whole, wholistically. The spine is where we hold such deep traumas of the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies.
Allow this to become unbound, to allow these energies to untangle and be freed from deep recesses in your very Being.
