The Greater World definition of Spiritual Healing:-

 

“Spiritual Healing is an expression of the love of God.  Spiritual Healing is for the sick in mind, body or spirit and/or any combination of all three.  Thought, prayer and meditation can express Spiritual healing.  The patient can experience the benefit of healing whether in the presence of the Healer or not.  Spiritual Healing is performed by the laying on of hands or by holding the hands close to the body of the patient without actually touching.  Spiritual Healing is not only for the relief of pain and dis-ease; it is for the healing of the soul of the individual.  Spiritual Healing passes through the Healer to the patient and does not come directly from the healer”.

 

Harry Edwards, the renowned Spiritual Healer, defines Mediumship as:-

“Mediumship has a purpose, and that is to demonstrate to man that he is not just a physical being, but that he is part of Spirit, that his life is but
an apprenticeship for the greater and fuller life that commences with the
physical death; that through this knowledge mankind will receive the
impetus to adopt an enlightened code of values that in its evolvement will
outlaw war, poverty and other ignoble trends in our present way of life.
Thus the motive that inspires Meduimship is a spiritual one. If this is not
so, then no reason can be found for the great efforts the evolved
personalities in the Spirit life, the Teachers, the Philosophers, Doctors
and others make to use human instruments for the progression of all souls."

            

In order to become a Spiritual Healer it is essential to have an awareness of the spiritual nature of man and creation.  It is even more important to have a spiritual outlook towards others as well as towards oneself.  Naturally this attitude will be dependant upon ones religious knowledge, beliefs and practice.

 

The first letter of John, chapter 4 verse 1, tells us to “test the spirits whether they be of God”.  This can only be done when the healer is in attunement with the higher side of themselves as they raise their consciousness away from the dross of the world, and begin to live a better and more spiritual life.  Spiritual attunement, therefore, is a necessary part of the spiritual healing process both for the healing of self and for the patient.

Attunement through meditation can help us to :-

           know ourselves better

           be spiritually aware 

           be in control of actions, our reactions and our selves

           be in control of emotions

           put past traumas into perspective so that they do not bother us further

           overcome fears and anxieties

           overcome stresses in daily life

           overcome problems where others irritate us

           prevent our minds being held by negative, unproductive thoughts
