What’s in a Title?

 

Many alternative Healers, are well respected by people who refer them to more people, but are not traditionally titled. Dr. Sebi has studied for many years, works with many people, including  celebrities, yet  he has no formal education in holistic medicine. He won a New York Supreme Court battle in 1998 for claiming to heal AIDS patients. According to The Pawprint, “nearly 100 patients testified for him. Nine of those patients were able to provide legal medical documentation stating that they were no longer infected with HIV/AIDS.” There are people who seek to discredit people who have done great work to save the lives of others, but what’s new? The results speak for themselves.

Thus he was not able to prove “scientifically” that he cured this disease, but he was able to prove that his methodology works. He traces it to the Bible “herbs are for the healing of the nations” (Genesis 1:29, Ezekiel 47:12) and to Hippocrates, who healed people using herbs 365 years before the birth of The Christ. I have met and spoken privately with Dr. Sebi.                                                                                                                       
It must be stated that I don’t believe any particular substance in itself cures disease. For example, if anger or the inability to forgive (i.e.; negative energy) makes one ill, no diet in the world can make one better! Because it is the body’s reaction to a substance which causes healing to occur. This bio-machine is programmed to heal itself. All we have to do is provide the proper environment. This environment can be achieved through mental, physical, or spiritual techniques, or a combination of these, and is where the term holistic or wholistic healing is derived. This type of healing addresses all parts of a person, not just the physical body. Visualization alone has shown effective in healing many ailments, and this has nothing to do with diet.

Every 7 years, every cell in the body has renewed itself. This fact is acknowledged by quantum physicists. What is important then, is to create the ideal situation for cells to renew properly, causing the body to heal itself. And this includes proper diet, and activities such as exercise, meditation and even proper rest. This falls in line with what prophet Edgar Cayce suggested to people many years ago, the significance of the acid/alkaline balance, and how to heal the body naturally. In fact, he may be the first reference to the importance of maintaining an alkaline state in the body. Meditation and love cause alkaline states, therefore  studies that show that people who have loving relationships are healthier, confirm this fact.
                                                                                                                           
Todd White and Eva Crow, are also self taught (in nontraditional healing), and they're very effective. Todd has baffled medical doctors with his healing of a man who was wheelchair bound with a broken back, who they said would never walk again. He simply put his hands on him, prayed, and he was healed. This healing was documented by the man's physician.

Eva, who I know personally, was herself wheelchair bound at one point before she went into the healing work. She was told that it was her ‘calling’ to heal others, and since she was not doing it, the energy she was supposed to use to help others actually turned in on itself (since it was not flowing out to help others) and caused her to become ill! She is now an intuitive and Energy Healer. She worked with me many years back and was the first to tell me that I was supposed to do this work also, or as she put it “you will get sick.” From Brazil, she was a psychologist or psychiatrist, can’t remember exactly, with a thriving practice before she became so ill that she could not work. It was then she discovered that she needed to start doing energy work and since, is fully recovered, and now takes people to Brazil for healing from another famous healer named John of God, (Joao de Deus).

So even though I can say I’m a Reiki Master, Seichim Master, certified hypnotherapist, University Instructor, Nutritional Counselor, and Artist, I’m a human being first and to me, titles are OK, but on their own somewhat useless. In a nutshell, healing is my calling, art is my passion, and love is my inspiration. One Love.
