The Essence of Healing

The essence of healing is the same for physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual health. For each there are three fundamental threats to our well-being — and three corresponding remedies.

Threat 1: Something is broken or damaged. 

Remedy: A restoration of wholeness.

Threat 2: The presence of toxins causes dis-ease. 

Remedy: Cleansing.

Threat 3: Suffering. 

Remedy: Comfort.

Healing an unhealthy mind, heart, or spirit means restoring wholeness, cleansing toxins, and comforting pain — all by administering the most powerful medicine available: unconditional love.

Unconditional love comes in many forms: attention, understanding, empathy, compassion, forgiveness, affirmation, praise, reassurance, and gratitude — all free of judgment. The medicine of unconditional love must be delivered directly to all those places within that need it most. All that’s required is a relationship to deliver it.

The guides at FreeSelfHealing.org explain how to cultivate a loving relationship within yourself. The essential tool for administering self-love is called bilateral writing — an easy and effective way to deliver healing love through written dialogues between your two hands. Through this simple practice, you can access the subpersonalities of your subconscious mind, your heart, and your soul.

Learning to heal your self — yourself — not only improves your health; it helps you become a more loving and lovable person. There’s nothing better for our health and our relationships than the circulation — the giving and receiving — of love.  And that is the essence of healing, the circulation of love — within us and between us.
