How can spiritual therapy nourish you?
“There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy” spoken by Hamlet – William B Shakespeare” .
Whilst through limited exposure, fear, atheist beliefs or shaming, many of us avoid consideration of the Spiritual aspects of being human. Within more recent Western cultural development, there has been concerted attempts to dissociate the spirit from the consideration and provision of healthcare. A scientific, evidence-based approach to health often assumes only body-based or mind-based cause and effect for conditions that ail us.
Spiritual therapy, rather than assuming that we cannot solve the ultimate mystery of our nature because we are part of it, instead provides a rich field of enquiry that contextualises our pain and disease within a wider context.
Various forms of spiritual therapy provide pathways to explore ourselves as beings within this universe. Tapping into energies and systems of knowledge that are sometimes not yet fully explicable in terms of science and yet provide great relief, can assist in the healing or ‘becoming whole’. They help us see our birth, death and life within an ongoing continuum. This consideration of our time here on earth as an opportunity for learning, lends meaning, purpose and increased fortitude to us as individuals on the path of healing.
Benefits of spiritual therapy
Spiritual Therapy is a blanket term for a large number of traditional and newly evolving practices that focus on the spiritual component of the Mind, Body, Spirit equation so often talked about.
In many fields of practice within this realm, it is understood that disturbances in the spiritual aspect of our existence can have an overall negative effect and lead to symptoms becoming apparent in the physicality of our existence or the thought patterns we rely upon.
For this reason, addressing our malaise through Spiritual Healing modalities can have an overall benefit to a number of symptoms at once or reportedly cause ‘miracle cures’. Addressing our human condition through Spiritual Healing in addition to modalities that support our physical and mental state, can add another dimension to healing that may uplift our spirt and result in long term shift of perspective around the disease and ageing process.
What to expect from a spiritual therapy session
Given the widespread number of therapies within the category of Spiritual Healing and the fact that many TCIH therapists weave spiritual practices into their healthcare provision, it is difficult to make far sweeping statements about what to expect. There are many modalities that help us comprehend each part of the rich makeup up of our multi-dimensional selves and thus incorporate Spiritual perspectives.
Spiritual Healing works on a broad understanding that our state of being is richly intertwined with forces and patterning connecting all things, that we ourselves may only be peripherally aware of. Following a Spiritual Healing session look for broad based changes to your state of mind, your physical state, sleeping patterns, unusual thoughts or occurrences. These are signs of a shifting relationship to your place in the scheme of things and indicate a productive session has been had.
As with all treatment and therapist choices, SoulAdvisor encourages you to take responsibility for your wellbeing by ensuring you are comfortable with the practices of potential therapists, by organising a Discovery Call prior to booking in.
SoulAdvisor strongly endorses a model of Earth-Body-Mind-Spirit when considering healing and so only verifies practitioners that are grounded in their service provision with appropriate qualifications that ensure your wellbeing. Many of the Spiritual Healing modalities we support on our platform, require therapists to also be trained in another way prior to being able to offer these forms of therapy.
