Remembering Wholeness 20th Anniversary Edition

CHAPTER 1

Energy What?

Everything at its finest level of creation is energy. We are exchanging energy and silently communicating energetically with every person we meet or come into contact with. Energy impressions are always our first impressions that influence what we think or feel about others.

I have worked in the field of Energy Healing for over three decades. I started my career in the field of Energy Healing as a Rapid Eye Therapist and Reiki Master Teacher. I went on to become proficient and certified in numerous energy healing modalities. I have had the good fortune of becoming well known online and as a result, being able to help a vast number of people heal from emotional wounds and limiting beliefs that kept them stuck, creating the same lack and pain over and over.

Energy healing is based on the theory that we can initiate deep and lasting healing in our own mind-body energy system through natural, easy-to-use, self-applied methods. With the tools

of energy healing, we can clear the overloads of negative, heavy energy we carry that taxes and creates imbalances on all levels of our system. Energy healing works from the inside out. And as we clear our limiting beliefs and emotional wounds, we free up the body to heal.

I teach people that energy healing modalities are not the healing power. They are tools that clear the energy we experience as negative and that we keep re-creating, energy that blocks and interferes with our spiritual powers and the truth of who we really are. As we clear this energy, we allow powers of remembering to be awakened within us, and for our spirit nature to awaken us to our wholeness on all levels of our being.

Clearing is one part of the healing process. The other part is learning new life skills that incorporate living by spiritual truths in a practical way so that we can maintain and continue to increase our state of well-being. I tell clients that they come in focused on recovery and clearing the negative, and graduate to creating and manifesting the future.

I believe that deep and lasting change is a spiritual process. I was drawn to energy healing because of the spiritual model it incorporated. At the spiritual level, energy healing therapies assist individuals in remembering their wholeness. As negative energy is released, clients are opened to their spiritual nature. This allows them to remember who they are and why they are here. Energy healing therapies offer comfortable processes that support us in remembering our real selves—naturally and gracefully.

There are many modalities of energy healing now available. When I began my study in the alternative or complementary health field, there were very few. To learn more about the energy therapies I use in my work, and to learn about my Healing Center where I

make these resources readily available online, please refer to the Appendix of Helpful Resources in the back of the book.

The greatest truth to remember is that there is no power outside of us. Only the power we give to things that cause us to feel like a victim to them. Claiming our power back and actively creating our lives is truly remembering our wholeness.

When I first felt the promptings to write Remembering Wholeness in 1999, I was worried and afraid of what other people would think. I was going out on a limb, talking about something—energy healing and the law of creation—that few had heard of and most perceived as dubious and unsubstantial as it is not backed by much research. I knew one of the missions of Remembering Wholeness was to bridge a gap between metaphysics and the teachings of Christ. I reference God the Father and Mother, along with Jesus Christ throughout the book. I knew that many Christians would call heresy on me to talk about Jesus Christ and energy healing in the same book. The more I learned about the laws of creation and energy healing in my early days of study, though, I clearly saw that Christ was the ultimate healer that had mastered the laws of creation. Based on my religious and spiritual understandings, there was no better role model to follow and learn from.

If you are new to energy healing and are Christian, I invite you to keep an open mind. If you are not religious and do not recognize God or Christ in your belief system, I invite you to replace those references with what supports your understanding. The bottom line for me is that I absolutely know there is a power greater than me that has guided me as I have pioneered new genres and forged a path for others to claim their truths and gifts. More than any book I

have written, I have heard more often from readers of Remembering Wholeness over the years that this single book changed their lives more than any book they ever read. For that I am grateful. I knew when I wrote it that many lives would be touched and changed for the better.

As you remember your wholeness, have more fun along the way. Whatever is happening in your life right now is perfect, it is divinely designed to support you in the best possible way to remember your truest nature, your godself. If it was not perfect, something else would be happening! Trust it and come alive in the feeling of this exact moment; whatever that feeling is, it is perfect.

How do you accept what is without feeling like you are giving up or settling for what you don’t want? Try this energy hack: think of something in your life that you would like to change, just pick one! Now ask yourself the following questions: 1.

1. Is what you don’t want actually happening or something you fear will happen? Is it something in your life right now, or is it just in your mind? If it is just in your mind, your attention on it could help it materialize. 2.

2. If it is an actual life situation you are currently experiencing as you move through your day-to-day experience: how much time in the day do you actually experience it? In most cases, the amount of time in the actual experience is minimal, but it feels like more as you experience it in your mind a lot, as your thoughts are preoccupied by it.

Next, allow yourself to completely immerse yourself in the experience you want to change. In your imagination, just see yourself accepting it as if it will never change. Choose it. Love it. Bring it

into your heart. Become one with it. Take a deep breath and fill this image with light and healing. As you do this, you start to transmute the energy of this experience.

CHAPTER 6

WE CREATE WHAT WE EXPERIENCE

I remember when I really woke up to this truth. It made me furious and in the same moment, I experienced one of the most freeing energies I had ever felt. I was on my knees pleading with God to help me get on with my life. I still felt stuck and needed more strength to overcome the constant struggles in my life. God, or Heavenly Father and Mother, as I affectionately refer to the God I believe in, told me in that moment that the reason I kept having struggles was because I kept believing I was a victim in life. I was told that I was creating it, and if I changed my belief and really believed at a cellular level that I was no longer a victim, my life would change completely.

I was angered by this feedback because if this were the case, I could no longer blame anyone else for the dysfunction in my life. I liked believing I was a victim who had learned to be a survivor and others and circumstances beyond my control were at fault for my struggles. I really knew how to put the blame on God and

Satan as well. Weren’t most of life’s challenges either God trying and proving us or Satan tempting us? If I were the creator—and I mean the one that at some level influenced everything that had ever and would ever happen to me—then I was creating some pretty messed up scenarios.

I would have to own it all and I didn’t like that. I still thought someone had to be blamed and now it would be me. I became very determined to really understand this truth. I knew in the moment of my anger that if this were true, then I could create something really wonderful for myself. I figured, wow, I’ve got real potential here. Look how well I created the things I believe I don’t want. If I can even be half as good at creating what I do want, my life could be very sweet.

Through my personal experience and my years of professionally assisting others in awakening, I have concluded that the deeper beliefs held in our subconscious mind can often play out to be some of the most powerful influences in what we end up creating and re-creating in our lives.

Many of our limiting beliefs held about our world and ourselves were genetically passed down to us from our ancestors and established in our childhood. We chose into this experience to support us in having the contrast we need to experience humanity. As children, we also created our own dysfunctional patterns in order to counter our families’ limiting beliefs and give us a sense of safety in our world. As adults, we can identify and release those deeply rooted limiting beliefs and dysfunctional patterns.

Even though you may not be consciously thinking limiting beliefs about yourself, you are still sending out a powerful signal that attracts into your life the people and events that honor what still exists for you at the subconscious level.

That is why life is such a great mirror for us. If you want to know what your most powerful beliefs are about yourself —whether you are aware of them or not —just look at your life. Once I finally understood this principle, I began to notice the limiting aspects of my life and look at them differently.

Even after devoting many, many years to my own awakening and spiritual growth, I know I am still evolving and remembering my truth. When a situation occurs that is reflecting back to me a belief that is limiting, I now tell the truth about it and ask myself, “What part of me is still believing I am not lovable?” I then declare the truth to myself by thinking, “I am gracefully and comfortably free of all limiting beliefs about myself on all levels. I am experiencing my divine worth and everything I create is a reflection of that.”

A client may come to me consciously unaware of some of their most powerful limiting beliefs, yet their life experience is clearly shouting to them they have them. For some, those limiting beliefs may be hard to accept because they spent years blocking them out from their conscious thinking mind in order to survive their trauma.

• At Gary’s first session I asked him how he felt about himself, his self-confidence and self-worth? He shared he felt fine that he had enough self-worth and confidence. He was completely ignorant of his deeper held beliefs that kept manifesting as limiting experiences very obviously in his day-to-day life. That his deeply held limiting beliefs were sending out powerful signals that attracted disease, disharmony, and painful events into his life.

• Gary came to me after coming through an experience with cancer that almost ended his physical life. He had overcome the cancer, yet he was physically exhausted, depleted, and still required a lot

of medication daily. He was in tremendous conflict with his wife and close to separating from her, believing she was not sensitive to his needs and “the love had gone out of their marriage.” He had also been fired recently from a high-powered position because of some misconduct on his part and at our first session was unwilling to discuss the details of his actions. He was extremely depressed and hopeless. He believed that all of this life experience had “happened to him.”

A person who knows and embraces their wholeness on all levels, and who has life skills that complement that knowing, has the evidence of a life experience that reflects this state of being. The clients that work with my healing resources that are aware of how their painful childhood experiences are interrupting their ability to have a healthy, joyful adult life are challenged differently.

For them, the challenge often is to take ownership of what they keep re-creating and to stop blaming their parents or perpetrators and everything outside of them as the problem. They have acquired a perception that their limiting beliefs about themselves must be true because “look at what keeps happening in my life.” They are still believing that their experiences create their beliefs. Very quickly, I introduce them to the Universal truth: “Your beliefs create your experience.”

By identifying and clearing the limiting beliefs held in your subconscious mind, by what I refer to as your “wounded inner child,” you will identify and clear the limiting patterns and experiences you keep recreating.

Creating new beliefs held by your wounded inner child (subconsciously), and your adult self (consciously), makes it easy to

establish new healthy patterns in your current experience. In these new thoughts and patterns, you send out a vibration or signal that attracts back into your life more of what you want. You stop creating what you don’t want and get very good at creating what you do want, which will make your life very sweet.

It may seem as if there has been a global drop in the energy of the world. After all, there’s so much going on, and so much stressful news broadcast at rapid speed. As the vibration of the planet increases, there is more light. However, when more light is present, the shadows are exposed and appear to be stronger. There is no more darkness; it is just coming into sharper focus. In the natural cycle of healing, toxins have to be dispelled in order to rebuild. While it may look and feel as if things are worse than ever (with mainstream media helping to paint that story), it is more important than ever to be aware of what you focus on. The light is there and you have the power to focus on it.

Think of yourself 10 or 20 years ago. Did you feel like you could trust leadership and institutions of authority in the world? Twenty years ago, I assumed authority figures had my interests at heart much more than I would ever think that today. I don’t feel the same anymore. That’s not a bad thing. In fact, it’s meant to happen in the energy shift that is occurring in our time. I’m not meant to give away my power blindly. I choose to take my power back and use it to do what is correct for me and what will create more positivity in the world.

You are an electromagnetic being, emitting a frequency. Only those things that are on the same frequency as the ones you are emitting can come into your experience. Every single person, event,

and circumstance in your day is telling you what frequency you are on. Those frequencies are created by both your subconscious and conscious beliefs.
