Yesterday I did a shamanic journey for a friend who is an excellent psychotherapist and has been for many years. Recently she was diagnosed with cancer so I offered to do a healing journey for her. She is very intuitive with a strong spiritual nature and has provided remarkable healing experiences for many of her clients. What I saw in nonordinary reality surprised me. While I might have expected what I call subtle negative energy to be negatively affecting her, what I saw (through the agency of my helping spirits) was information compiled and saved in her energy field, much like a computer server saves all the important data for a company. However, in this case, the information was depicted as “files” or packets of information saved from every client she had seen in her career of many decades. This was a major teaching for me and I realized that when our energetic boundaries are compromised in any way and for any reason (usually out of our conscious awareness), weakness and disease may result. Obviously this has made me rethink the whole concept of proper self-care for caregivers and helpers. With the help of the living earth, a dismemberment was generated resulting in the completed elimination of this no-longer useful information that created congestion and clutter in her field, possibly contributing to her illness.
Afterwards, I reflected on how common this may be and what kind of information we may unwittingly retain, energetically, that can cause problems later on in our lives. Perhaps this information mutates and affects the physical body after a certain amount of time if we don’t take care of it through various means. This is why (traditionally), shamans ask their helping spirits for occasional dismemberments to have them take the psychotoxicity from the person’s energy body to be cleansed so they may be free to be more present, lighter and healthier after having released the dense and toxic residue of being with people with emotional pain.
I am always humbled by the incredible wisdom and compassion of the helping spirits.
