Energy Healing through the Meridians

This week I was impressed with the contrast and comparisons of the three types of energy healing using tapping to work on energy flows in the meridians. The Diamond Method, Thought Field Therapy, and Evolving Thought Field Therapy, all spoke to the basic understanding of the nature of disease. The basis of my work as a Body talk Practitioner/ Access Consciousness Teacher is the deep respect of the body to heal itself through the wisdom of the innate, and the general principle behind this capacity being the Life Force Energy that everything is born with. I, as practitioner, have very little, if anything to do with the healing process, except to facilitate the observance of stuck energy, and the movement of energy through specific channels in the highest wisdom of the patient and in the highest wisdom of my being.

The difference between the medical mechanical model and Cartesian methods of healing are based on a two dimensional point of view. If something is not working well in the body, then you just take it out, like you would take out a part of a watch, fix it, replace it, stick it back in, and voila it works! We all know that this is just not so, in healing or western hospitals would not be overflowing.

In holistic practice, we view disease rather as stuck energy. This energy, once released allows the wisdom of the body to heal itself. Once the Qi or life force energy which animates the forms of the world and is the vibratory nature of phenomena, on all molecular, atomic and subatomic levels of the body is freed, the body has the wisdom to do the rest. This energy is also known in eastern culture as prana, Ki or Chi. (Veltheim /MuizicksPg. 25 Mod 1.)

The Diamond Method, TFT, and EvTFT all speak to the specific series of energy sequences that are blocked. How did they get blocked? When we repress, suppressed or are paradoxically reversed, we feel emotionally this resonates within the meridians and stops the flow of energy there. Hence we create disease. When we “link the acupuncture system as the communication link between the emotions, organs and muscles, all disease mediated through the meridian system is released. “ (Diamond, 2001). I loved Diamond’s thoughts on three sides of the triangle connecting the aspects of the emotions working through the muscles, organs and meridians. I especially resonated with his use of sound vibrational healing through music, working on the function of the organs, muscle association and meridians. No wonder I head to the yoga mat when I’ve had a tough day. The combination of the music, large muscle association and clearing of energy heals my soul and awakens my spirit.

Diamond’s body shell theory and its association to attention deficit disorder held particular fascination for me as priority in my practice. Meet Kenny. According to his mother, Kenny has autism. Since I do not accept this label in children or the drugs that go with it, Kenny is particularly interested in talking to me.

Using the Body talk technique of body vivaxis linked to the environment, or Chinese clock, I question, “Does Kenny sleep through the night? “ His mother bursts into tears. Kenny has not slept through the night his entire young life of six years, NO, not one night in six years. Not sleeping can be pretty tough on a little body and his parents’ love life. I test and find that his liver/gall bladder meridian is blocked. Then, I ask him what is happening at school or at home to make him angry? Balancing this meridian and his body chemistry allergy to red dyes, Kenny goes home smiling. The whole session takes 10 minutes. I get a call at 8 am the next morning from his dad. “What did you do to my son? “He demands to know.” I just balanced him,” I respond calmly. “Well, he slept through the night on a first visit. “ His father, the lawyer says, “I told Martha to pay that woman whatever she wants.” “The parents did not want to fuse with each other; therefore, they created a child that was disturbed so that they could continue to keep apart from each other, “( Diamond, 2001). Resolving this problem, created yet another problem, disclosure of the internal separation between the parents, later to the discovery of a prostate issue in the husband due to lack of sexual closeness in his marriage.

I especially related to Diamond’s notes on working on a persons’ self worth is more exciting that working on his tensor fascia latae, or neuro lymphatic system, and learning more about them in totality. Diamond’s story is how he carried the human heart on the bus to go to the coroner’s office is also one that I resonate with. In practice, we carry the human heart. All the sorrow or joy that resides there is given to us in deep humility. I never forget the honor of overcoming their problems to the see the joy and essence of life!

“ When the sufferer cones to you with his very heart, and the soul offered openly, trustingly, courageously to you for you to help, there must be the greatest respect, the greatest humility, the highest aspiration, the highest of intention.” (Diamond). This is the essence of why I practice.

John Diamond, 1985,”Using the Meridians to Unlock the Hidden Power of your Emotions.”

“Thought Field Therapy: Carl Johnson, Mustafa Shala, Xhevdet, Robert Odell, and Kadengika Dabishevci from the Journal of Clinic Psychology, Vol. 57:1 237-1240) was shocking to say the least. The post-traumatic stress of the ethnic cleansing of the Albanian people was far more brutal than I ever imagined. I was unaware that these events were deliberate, and manipulated to invoke terror in the survivors and survivor’s guilt. The subjective units of Distress were off the charts. To notice that 103 of the 105 patients the treatment was successful is an incredible story. The results were so significant that they cannot be ignored, although a p.s. was added that further application and observation of TFT was warranted. This objective documentation of evidence is why I am at CIHS.

The other point of fascination was the article on HRV (Task Force of European Society of Cardiology, and the North American Society of Pacing and to me Electrophysiology, 1996) and power spectral density analysis used to monitor a number of pathological states including predicting mortality after a myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure. If they can measure it, why can’t they balance the energies in the triple heater and pericardium to stop it? I just don’t get western medicine.

Meet Sam. He came in to see why he was not feeling well. I asked him about his sleep patterns. Next I tested for Chinese clock (meridians) and found he was particularly agitated between 12:43 pm to 1pm, and 10:43 pm to 11 pm. These times related to the heart and triple heater meridians. He was emotionally resentful that he could not complete his work on time, because he was an author and these were the two times of day he was particularly up- set. He could not understand why he was stuck in his failure to complete his tasks. When I reached over to see if there was constriction in the heart area, it felt like he had a stone on his heart. The entire left side of his chest was cold and solid. He then told me he had at heart attack at 39 years of age. Tapping of the head and heart, and an icepack at the middle of his back on the pericardium cooled things down very quickly. After we discussed his anger at his father’s abandonment of him emotionally, and his resolution to be an awesome father, he left a “new man.”

Sam has now tripled his income, written 4 books in the last 6 months and has 40% more time off.

Finally, the “Evolving Thought Field Therapy” (Callahan, 1985) and its results were so astounding to me; I intend to incorporate it in my practice for some of those reversed paradoxes, I see in patients that come back time after time.

The Exercise

I muscle tested myself against the statement, ‘I am afraid that I will not do well at grad school.” I was testing at a 5. Tapping the Gamut 9, brought almost immediate relief around the statement. The first time I hummed “Old Macdonald had a farm, with a pig here, a rabbit there, “ I was at 2 then, by the time I finished the Gamut 9 and humming a second time, I was laughing so hard, I could hardly finish repeating the statement I believed to be true and was at zero. WOW!

I so agree with the statement, “The Buddha called suffering a Holy Truth. Our suffering has the capacity of showing us the path to liberation. Embrace your suffering and let it reveal to you, the way to peace. “Thich Nhat Han. As we are humbled by our own suffering and the suffering of humanity, we are inspired to liberate Truth through healing. What else can we learn or teach and liberate others? whose repsonsibility is it to each others what they do not yet know or understand? The sufferer or the healer ‘s way to peace?
