This cartoon makes me laugh because I used to be like that fish. I had no idea that we live in an "ocean" of unseen subtle light (energy). That fish represents an over-whelming number of people. If we asked the average Christian if they believed in "Chi life force energy" they would likely answer "no." That is sad and ironic because Christians use several different terms for "life force energy" -- they just haven't realized it yet! Scripture uses a completely different set of vocabulary than terms holistic health practitioners use!
I share a story in my book of being prompted by the spirit to call a past bishop's wife. I told her of our daughter's trials with severe depression and cutting and suicidal tendencies. She asked if I had only looked for help in the medical field. Startled, I answered, "Yes, of course. What else is there?" "Oh, she said, "there is a whole other field of medicine." "Really?" I asked incredulously. "Yes, it is called Energy Medicine," she replied in a matter-of-fact way. She said it was a complementary method. (see Healing Arts, 2) Today we would say Integrative method.
My bishop's wife explained that there were techniques that re-patterned the light around a person, which I later found out was information related to life-force energy. I read dozens of books about this new idea as fast as I could. One medical doctor wrote that, "healing involved a strengthening of the underlying integrity of an individual's human energies and their re-patterning in a healthier way" (Susan Wagner, M.D.,A Doctor's Guide to Therapeutic Touch, 29). We found by experience that techniques which cleared and balanced the subtle energy/unseen light enveloping the body were incredibly helpful for my daughter who experienced depression, severe anxiety and mood swings.
The insistence of the spirit led me to this seemingly unusual help. Initially, I wasn't sure of its compatibility with Christianity. Later on, I found prophets comparing life-force energy to intelligence in the light of Christ.That was incredibly validating! New vocabulary words I had learned such as "Chi"and "Prana" suddenly became Christian terms - no longer cloaked in foreign sounding names. Additionally, the Light of Christ was also compared by prophets to consciousness. That added another health-benefiting-avenue of study. Scholars and doctors said higher consciousness, such as forgiveness, could be used purposefully for improved health. My family was blessed to learn by experience that forgiveness is indeed beneficial to the body! God tells us it is part of clearing generational curses in the Bible!
This site offers several answers to the question, "What else is there?"when seeking health and wellness. It is possible that there are variables involved in healing that one has never considered before. Traditional medicine generally doesn't practice from the perspective of Whole Person Health. However, scripture talks about these overlooked areas! One example is the scriptural term "chase darkness" (from Doctrine and Covenants section 50). Gaining an understanding of that subject alone was incredibly helpful for my daughter!
Some of the best things I have learned since writing my first book involve the physical side of mental issues and the gut as the "second brain." I am grateful there are Functional Medicine doctors such as Naturopaths and Osteopathic Doctors that seek out the root cause of issues instead of just offering symptom relief. My family has been greatly blessed by other energy medicine modalities as well as frequency devices in these doctor's offices.
I talk about all these under the tab “Mental First Aid.” has been a huge blessing to have learned about Empowerplus and how it has been studied for the brain. Formulated specifically for brain and nervous system health, this inspired product has IMMENSELY made a difference for family members and clients with a broad array of brain related issues. There is an incredible fasting father (Tony Stephan) story behind this formula.
The field of Energy Medicine that the Holy Ghost led me to is not understood by the masses. However, I KNOW it can help people draw nearer to Christ. Scripture says the Savior took upon Himself not only our sins, but also our illnesses and heartaches... all mortal bitterness. That includes our unresolved emotions which are heavily tied to health. I am a witness that the Savior can swallow up our burdens in His love. This work is very Christ-centered when credit is given where credit is due, to the Savior. He is the light and the life of the world - HE is the reason for our every breath and the source of the life force energy.
My learning journey has taught me how to better apply Jesus Christ's atonement. Jesus Christ is the source of all healing. "For I am the Lord that healeth thee." It has been my experience that helping people in the healing arts is to help them forgive the past and bring light to dark places.
In my learning curve I have also been blessed to learn about women and priesthood power. I have learned how generational clearing relates to that and is spoken of over and over in Isaiah. There is scriptural backing for every foundational principle used in this work as my 3 books attest!
I am so excited that MK Strydom, a medical doctor in South Africa teaches the same basic principles that I have learned. She teaches how powerfully connected our thoughts are to health. She teaches to forgive in order to heal. She teaches to cast out dark spirits by their names and to clear generational issues for our ancestors (just like D&C 98:45-48 teaches)! Her thick book, Healing Begins with Sanctification of the Heart, is available free online as a PDF! See pages 325-327 HERE or HERE. She never once uses the term "energy" because she uses Biblical terms instead. I'm so grateful that MK Styrdom M.D.'s book and work is a second witness to the health principles I have learned in Energy Medicine.
Studying the field of Energy Medicine has helped me to understand deeper meaning of scripture verses. Some verses which I previously thought were merely symbolic I now understand as reality. MK Strydom, MD teaches about the power of clearing generational issues and casting out darkness to bring light and vitality to our families.
The more I learn about energy medicine, the more I learn that faith is a principle of power. In my opinion, this work would be better referred to as "spiritual re-patterning." I have observed since 2004 as a facilitator of Healing Arts that doing emotional release work can be a spiritual process which can foster the development of spiritual gifts. There are also areas that I avoid altogether. Run away from any facilitators who would 'predict' your future or cross any other lines God warns about. Such is NOT a part of energy healing for those who are 'vigilant for God's word' (Isaiah 66). All my books contain warnings and safeguards for facilitators.
It has been my experience that Christ centered integrative health modalities teach a person they can ask in faith for much more than they previously thought.
I continue to learn that our body's ability to heal is greater than we've been led to believe. Leading edge science has discovered that "we now know that the body heals through frequency, vibration and resonance and it's communicated through light." (William Tiller, PhD)
In late 2022 we were very blessed to find the iTeraCare scalar and terahertz frequency device for home use. HOW THRILLING not to have to drive to a doctor's office to benefit from this scalar energy device! We have seen amazing differences and it is so easy to use: structure water with it in seconds, drink the scalar charged terahertz water and then point the wand/blower toward our own areas of concern on our body. More on that HERE
This light the world calls 'Chi' is intelligence in the light of Christ! It is Jesus Christ's light that is the life force energy keeping us alive, "lending us breath" (Mosiah 2:21) being the universal recording mechanism scholars speak of.
Open your heart to new possibilities. There are new and exciting options to achieve better health. My family is extremely blessed because we explored these integrative methods! Explore my website to learn more. The search box is a most helpful tool on my blog. I highly recommend reading my first book whether you are a beginner or a long time facilitator. It will really open your eyes as to how much consciousness is involved in health and how life force energy is talked about by so many prophets and scriptures.
To Your Health!
