To my great surprise, I recently learned how to do channeling.
And in case you’re wondering what channeling is, it’s when you go into a deep meditation and allow a spirit guide to communicate through you. You may speak their words, or write them. (I spoke.)
One of the most popular channelers today is Esther Hicks. She channels a spirit guide named Abraham, and their main theme is the Law of Attraction.
Now I say “to my great surprise” because I’ve never been totally interested in learning how to channel. After all, I’d already been communicating with my spirit guides for over a decade, what could channeling offer me?
It offered me a lot, actually…
For a few months now I’ve been bumping into a spirit guide who looks like a nun.
I mainly feel her presence when I’m applying healing energy to one of my daughters many boo-boo’s. She stands behind me in a solemn prayerful position, helping me direct the healing energy properly.
In fact, when she initially came around, I thought for sure it was a sign that I was to become a healer. I even journaled about it, questioning my inner self, “Am I really to become a healer? I thought I was meant to give readings.”
It was a bittersweet entry. I enjoy healing, but I love readings.
On the other hand, sometimes the Universe is trying to ever-so-gently show us our intended path. Which is why I took the appearance of the nun so seriously. Was this a sign of another shift in my life?
Yes and no
When I did the channeling, the nun was the spirit guide who came through. I relaxed, cleared my mind of any preconceived notions, and felt her warm energy.
And then her message began…
Apparently we’ve known each other in spirit form for many centuries. I was once a nun in France and that’s when she and I became familiar with each other.
As a nun I loved God, but I also believed and engaged in many esoteric topics as well. Which is probably why I enjoy solitude, quiet time and esoteric topics so much in this lifetime.
She went on to say that I am indeed a healer in this lifetime.
Aaaack! My rational mind thought…
Here it was - the big lowering of the boom on my head! Or so I thought.
She went on to explain that I was a healer through my words. The words that I write (because I am a writer by trade) were to be a healing force in many, many lives.
My words would offer transformation. They would help others to find themselves. They could heal - if I allowed them to.
I understood her message completely.
I’d always looked at healing as a physical act. Your body is ill, you take or do something to get better, and your body gets better.
But healing, in it’s purest form, is all about change. Changing from a place of pain or confusion to one of peace and clarity.
It’s not necessarily a physical occurrence. And if you’re called to be a healer, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re supposed to be a doctor or a Reiki practitioner.
For example, you can help heal someone’s self esteem by offering them a kind comment. You can heal a rift by forgiving. Or you can provide healing to a situation by simply walking away from it.
Why the nun said what she said - this is important
