What is Reconnective Healing (RH)?

• The quick answer is that Reconnective Healing is a hands-off form of healing that connects us with our own Highest Essence through the transmission of energy, light, and information from the Universe/ Source. Reconnective Healing uses a greater bandwidth of frequencies than other energy healing modalities, has been scientifically shown to heal DNA, along with many physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual disorders.

(More information to come, relating to research studies.)

How is RH different from other energy healing modalities?

• Energy Healing
In traditional energy healing modalities, the energy flows through the practitioner and into the patient. Different modalities have different practices, but most involve the energy worker “doing” something: reading the energy, diagnosing blockages/ trouble/ problems, pushing/ pulling/ removing/ adding, etc., etc.. This model assumes that the practitioner is more knowledgeable than the Universal Life Force Energy, and that this energy that infuses all matter with consciousness… is not up to the task of “fixing” whatever our ego has deemed is “wrong.”

• Reconnective Healing
RH allows the wisdom of the Universe/ Source/ Creator/ God/ Goddess/ Love (or whatever you call the animating consciousness) the space to do what it needs to do without our ego trying to manipulate anything. The role of the Reconnective Healing Practitioner is not to “heal” the client, but to provide an opportunity for the client to connect with these new energies. By the practitioner introducing these new energies to the client, the client is able to work with the energies on an ongoing basis. The healing is conducted in cooperation between the Universal Consciousness (God/ Love/ Source/ etc.) and the Higher Self of the client with the Practitioner as catalyst. The Practitioner inspires the healing, and holds space for it to occur by letting go and releasing her/his ego so the healing may take place. With Reconnective Healing, it is the client’s responsibility to be open to the healing and release expectations and attachments to specific results. The client does not have to believe in the healing for it to take place, however, it is helpful for the client to relax and allow whatever is most appropriate to occur. There is always a healing; it just may not always be what we expect! It is a great gift to be able to receive from the Universe – we often get much more than what we would actually ask for!

Will it work for (a specific condition)?

• Possibly, yes. It depends on what you mean by “work.” Healing always occurs, but we don’t always get the result our ego desires. When we are able to release our expectations and allow the healing to occur, the healing that is most appropriate for us will happen in the most appropriate manner and timing. Often, spiritual and emotional healings are much more profound and life-changing than physical ones, though the physical healings are the ones that catch our attention (since they’re the most obvious).

What can I expect from my session?

• Everyone’s experience of Reconnective Healing is different. Some people feel physical sensations, others feel nothing. Some people see visions of colours or images, while others do not. Some people hear music, sounds, voices, while others hear nothing. Some people experience aromas, tastes, or a sense of knowingness, while others “check out.” Some people experience a feeling of bliss and connectedness, while others fall asleep. Each person experiences what is most appropriate for his/her own life and spiritual evolution at that moment in time. Some people have obvious physical healings, while other experience a greater sense of unity and emotional or mental-well-being. Some people don’t notice any changes immediately, but gradually find that their life course has altered. This may be imperceptible at first, but as the blocks and obstacles to your life path are removed, you will experience a blossoming of your life’s purpose here on Earth.

What can I do to prepare for my session?

• Relax! Once you’ve scheduled and paid for your session, the energy has started to move. When you commit to energy work, the process begins. There is no need to set an intention, call on Sprit Guides, God, Goddess, the Universe, Source, Guardian Angels, etc.. If you believe that the higher Consciousness is omnipresent, doesn’t it stand to reason that He/She is already there and knows what you want? Or more importantly… what you need?

What do I do during my session?

• Distance Sessions
If the session is conducted while you’re sleeping, all you need to do is sleep! Trust that the healing that is most appropriate for you will happen, and let it go!
If the session is conducted while you’re awake, you should find a quiet place with no distractions (TV/ phones off, kids at school, etc.), get into a comfortable position and relax. Allow yourself to “drift” and simply notice anything that you experience. Trust that anything that is important for you to remember, you will remember at the appropriate time. It is natural to have thoughts during the session, if you simply notice them and allow them to pass, your session will continue and you will be able to relax again.

• In-person Sessions
You will recline in an easy chair or on a massage table during your session with your eyes closed for approximately 30 minutes. Reconnective Healing is a hands-off healing method, so while you may feel physical sensations, the practitioner will not be touching you. Your job during the session is to allow yourself to “drift” and simply notice anything that you experience. Trust that anything that is important for you to remember, you will remember at the appropriate time. It is natural to have thoughts during the session, if you simply notice them and allow them to pass, your session will continue and you will be able to relax again. When the session is over, your practitioner will lightly touch you to signal that the session is complete.

What do I do after my session?

• You may choose to journal, write notes, or even draw or do some sort of creative project after your session. You may choose to relax or pamper yourself. OR… you may simply choose to go about your day. Whatever you choose to do, be sure to listen to your own inner wisdom and follow your inner guidance. You know what you need!

With all of the other modalities you’ve studied/practiced, why focus exclusively on R.H.?

• Throughout my career, it has become clear to me that everything comes down to energy, and that all healing is Self-healing. For a greater understanding of the nature of energy (as discovered by quantum physicists throughout the 20th century), please visit “The Nature of Energy” article on this website.

• As for Self-healing, no one can heal another person, we can simply facilitate another’s process. For some people this might sound like semantics, but it is quite a valuable distinction. When a healer believes that he/she is responsible for another’s healing, that is the ego speaking. It is my view however, that the Universal Intelligence is able to conduct all the healing necessary.

• But if that’s the case, why do we need someone to facilitate our own healing? The answer is: we don’t. However, sometimes it is helpful to have someone facilitate our healing and help us connect to something we have not yet experienced. If we have never experienced something, it is difficult to find it for ourselves. For example, if you live in Canada, and have never been to Prague, could you find it without help? Probably not. However, if someone were to give you a map, take you there, or give you directions, you’d have a much better chance of finding it. It’s the same with the Reconnective Healing frequencies. Once you are connected to them, you are able to use the Reconnective frequencies for your own healing. Because these frequencies are new however, and more complete than other energy modalities (a shocking claim, even to a skeptic like me – but see the research for more information), in most cases, they require an introduction for us to be able to integrate the new bandwidth into our bodies and consciousness. Reconnective Healing is that introduction. It allows us to experience and integrate as much of the energy as we are able at the time of the session.

• It is useful to enlist a guide or facilitator (“healer” to use the common term), because when we pay for something and commit to a session, we are in effect, “investing” in our own healing process. It is a commitment we make to ourselves, and it allows us to receive whatever it is we need. It is relatively common knowledge that we can talk ourselves out of a healing (i.e. convince ourselves we don’t deserve it, or that it isn’t real) if we have conscious or unconscious motivation to maintain the status quo. For example, many people successfully stop smoking using hypnotherapy. However, if someone goes to hypnotherapy (or any therapy) with the attitude that it will not work (such as when the person doesn’t want to stop smoking, but is getting the treatments to please another person), 9 times out of 10, the person will not stop smoking. We are responsible for our own healing – which includes acknowledging when we need help.
