Last August 20th I had an experience of "point holding" in Body Electronics. It was the pivotal experience of the year. Everything that happened to me subsequently was colored by that experience. Thus, my perceptions changed on that day. The change in perception attracted, you might say, different kinds of happenings or circumstances, so that the event kept accumulating power from outside as well as within. Other powerful experiences followed some in point holding, some in Transformational Breathing. The changes in my life kept on moving and gaining power. And today as I write this, the power of those changes continues putting me more in harmony with my higher purpose. What happened that day was a first-hand experience of transformational healing.
The Higher Self enters the healing process by transforming the Lower. Dr. Doug Morrison in Introduction to Body Electronics writes: "The physical body is but the outer manifestation or reflection of consciousness: in other words, each of us is a co-creator of the universe and as such the various conditions which arise on the outer level are simply reflections of what already exists on the inner level in patterns of thought, word, and emotion." There is a direct relationship between complete healing and access to this inner level. He continues, "Until we can remember that which we have resisted, we will remain incapable of transmuting it and releasing it. If we are incapable of remembering the past, then we are also incapable of ever simply being in the Now, for our resistance will continue to color our perception until it is encountered and released."
Resistance is a key concept. "What you resist, persists." What the advocates of Body Electronics are saying is that it takes energy to resist the inner patterns and prevent their intrusion on our conscious awareness. The point holding session utilizes bio-chemical and subtle energies simultaneously to break through the barrier of locked resistance patterns that are called "crystals." (These crystals are thought to be melanin/protein complexes in the nerve pathways.)
As these barriers dissolve, powerful emotions are released along with physical changes. Realizations on a deep, subtle level of subjective mental action move the person who is on the table, actively participating in this process, to new levels of mental organization. The resulting transformation may seem miraculous!
Sometimes the memories that surface, laden with anger, fear, grief, etc., are simply not identifiable as present life memories. And yet they have the subjective quality of being one's own remembered experience! The obvious inference is that they are memories of trauma from past lives.
My second session of point holding gave me such a remembered trauma. An apparently Ancient Egyptian incarnation as a physician, who had just lost a royal client to early death, produced a memory that reduced me to wailing tears of grief in an instant. Was it just a fabricated scene my mind created to beguile me, or a genuine glimpse of the Akhashic Record? Whichever it was, it completely transformed my attitude toward healing and my relationship to the healing arts. A barrier to action and positive results was dissolved in a moment, and my life has not been the same since then. This is another example of transformational healing.
Caroline Myss, author of Why People Don't Heal, expresses skepticism about past life trauma creating present life problems. (Even though she gives an example of this very thing!) She is not skeptical, however, about the need for transformation in healing. In fact, she makes it the pivotal distinction between 'cure' and 'heal' in The Creation of Health, co-authored with C.N. Shealy. She writes, "In accepting the necessity of doing inner work, you need to change or transform the areas of your life that are not conducive to regaining your health. The transformational process, then, becomes the experience of understanding the particular messages that illness brings into your life. The messages will direct you toward reevaluating who you think you are and what you realize you can live with versus a much more authentic appraisal of your real needs and considerations." (I would agree that learning our real needs does more to raise us to a higher level than anything else.)
My big distinction in this whole area of thought concerns the means. Choosing between physical, emotional and mental or subtle avenues of approach can be quite problematic. Based on my personal experience, any approach that can combine those three elements can work wonders. The two ways that I have some acquaintance with are Body Electronics and Transformational Breathing. Both of these have an extra feature in common: they utilize an outer fuel for achieving powerful inner results.
Body Electronics requires a two week runway of taking extra enzymes and minerals before the point holding session. This mineral and nutrient saturation creates an alchemical effect in the body when the points are held and the attention is directed and guided in the specific way promulgated by Drs. John Ray and Doug Morrison. Transmutation of toxic elements into benign substances is one of the seeming miracles that can happen.
In Transformational Breathing the fuel is air and prana or chi. Both the material substance of air and the subtle energy of chi connects with a focused intention, certain affirmations accompanied by music of distinct rhythm and tonality to create an inner subjective state of great power and purpose. Life changing miracles are the rule in this work, also.
The unifying principle of these two therapies a connection across different quantum frequencies suggests a new criteria of development for healing modalities. Both of these strategies for transformational healing, Body Electronics and Transformational Breathing are in their infancy. And as they grow in sophistication and effectiveness they will surely point the way to other modalities, be joined by and combined with other such cross-dimensional efforts as can only be imagined now.
