From Registered Nurse to Facilitator of Healing and Quantum Physics
How are these possibly connected?
The most amazing times in a person’s life are usually times that involve the greatest transformation or change. 1994 was such a time for me.
Traditionally trained as an R.N. both at American University and the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing, my journey as a caregiver and a facilitator of healing began. But of course, that journey started years before that. For all of us that are caregivers, I believe, were born into it, especially if it brings us joy. And so, for the past forty plus years, I have enjoyed being of service to others in many areas of nursing, including Pediatrics, Newborn Nursery, Maternal-Child Health, Medical-Surgical, Hospice, Medicolegal and now, as a facilitator of healing, utilizing vibrational medicine techniques including Healing Touch, Medical Intuitive Scans, Quantum Healing, Aromatherapy with Essential Oils and others.
In January of 1994 I saw a small ad for a Healing Touch class to be held in Jacksonville, Florida. The title intrigued me. I registered, but the class did not actually go forward. It would not be until July of 1994 that I actually started taking classes in Healing Touch. I remember my first class and the feeling of “having come home”, and as a result, everything in my life changed!! And all for the good!!
Looking back, I learned then and there, that all things happen in perfect and divine order. We may not always understand the timing of the events in our lives, but if we trust in this belief and consider that change is neither good nor bad, right or wrong, it simply is what it is, then we are able to release our judgment of and attachment to it all. This allows us to BE in our lives from a very different perspective than perhaps we are used to.
Over the past 20 years, I have so enjoyed the opportunities for service that have appeared in my life. Each client I have worked with has been a blessing and an extraordinary opportunity for growth. For I truly believe that we are always the student and the teacher in each of our life experiences. The key is to recognize which we are and allow our choices to follow that knowing. It truly enhances the richness of life exponentially!! So a little about the healing work that came into my life and transformed how I “see” my world and yours.
Healing Touch is a program of study and a philosophy of healing that utilizes principles of quantum physics and hands-on, energy-based techniques to balance and align the human energy field. Body, mind, emotion and spirit are touched through this therapeutic process, and each individual is empowered to participate fully in his or her healing journey. Healing Touch is considered a Complementary and Alternative Medicine Therapy by The National Institutes of Health’s Office of Alternative Medicine.
Speaking of quantum physics, Albert Einstein was a phenomenal scientist spoke of Quantum Physics back in the 1920's but, it didn’t truly take hold in the scientific community until the 1950's. Now, Quantum Physics is at the core of all the newer forms of physics studied at major universities around the globe. From a lay person’s perspective, which I consider myself to be when it comes to science, quantum physics teaches us that everything in our reality, what we perceive with all of our senses, is really energy vibrating at different frequencies. So, the sounds we hear, such as from music, are all different vibrational frequencies of energy that come into the ear, are transmitted through the nerves in the inner ear and then sent to our brain and interpreted as sound. The same for our experiences with sight. For example, colors of light are also energy vibrating at different frequencies or rates of speed. When they enter our eyes, they are transmitted through the nerves in the eye and then sent to our brain and interpreted as different colors. And so this is true for everything we perceive through our senses. This scientific belief also includes our physical bodies, our emotions and thoughts, the chairs we sit on, the houses we live in, and so on - all of it energy vibrating at different frequencies or rates of speed. The more dense the object, like our bodies, the slower the vibrational frequency. And if we take it one step further, wherever there is density in our energy fields, there is a limitation of flow and therefore the potential for dis-ease.
Consider a simple example of this frequency concept. The water molecule, and the different forms we know it as, can all be found in our kitchens. When a water molecule is vibrating at its’ slowest rate or lowest vibrational frequency, it takes on its’ most dense form, which of course we know to be ice. The water molecule vibrating at its’ fastest rate or its’ highest vibrational frequency, takes on its’ least dense form, which is steam. In the middle, we have the form of water we drink - liquid. All the same water molecule, but when the vibrational frequency changes, our perception of that molecule changes dramatically. And so, perception seems to be an important part of all of this, as well as what we believe. And this concept also relates to a wonderful technique called Freeze-Frame that helps to shift or transmute emotions that are dense and uncomfortable for us, so that we then feel lighter and ultimately much healthier. But that’s another story.
Remember, at one time in our human history, we all believed the Earth was flat. And at that time, all the beliefs that shaped our relationships to each other and our world, were based upon this one belief, the Earth was flat. And then we were told by brave explorers, that belief was no longer valid, that in fact, the Earth was round, and we wouldn’t fall off of it if we traveled far from the safety of our homes. Imagine the fear that so many people felt back then, when they were asked to change their beliefs about their world!!!! It must have been a very scary time for everyone. But the most important part of this story is that beliefs apparently change as we grow and evolve. So a very good question to ask ourselves periodically is, do my current beliefs still serve me or do they need to change to support who I am choosing to become?
And so, my journey as a Registered Nurse, working in various clinical settings, was transformed into becoming a facilitator of healing, utilizing energy-based healing techniques to support an individual’s healing journey. It was a very long journey in numbers of years, a lifetime really. And yet, it was a momentary shift in perception that created the biggest step along this journey, for me.
