Healing at The Quiet Mind Centre, Exmouth

Healing is based on the principle that there is a universal energy, or life force, which may be referred to as divine energy or simply healing energy.

It is not required to have any particular religious beliefs for healing to work. All that is needed is an open mind, however it is of most benefit if clients are relaxed and comfortable with their healer and receptive to the healing energy. Depending on the healer relaxation may be offered in a variety of ways, such as music, visualisation or a guided body awareness exercise, before the healing itself begins.

Benefits of Healing Include:

  • Assists the body's own self-healing mechanisms
  • Helps to reduce pain
  • Helps to improve sleep
  • Helps with relaxation
  • Helps to reduce anxiety, tension and stress
  • Assists with wound healing
  • Assists clear-thinking, decision-making and problem-solving
  • Can help with chronic conditions such as migraine, IBS, M E, Fibromyalgia, etc.
  • Can help reduce the symptoms of many other diseases or conditions
  • Healing can benefit people in unexpected ways

How Does Healing Work?

During a healing session the healer opens their awareness to the universal energy and directs it to the client. The client receives the healing energy which flows through the healer, but does not come from the healer. A healer treats the whole person, not specific diseases, as the aim is to re-balance the energy of the client and allow the healing to take place.

What Does a Healing Session Involve?

A healing session can last anything from 15 minutes to an hour depending on the client's level of need. Usually an appointment with a healer at The Centre will last about an hour as it also allows time for clients to talk to their healer about their problems.

It is not required to remove any clothing with the exception of a coat and possibly the shoes. Healing can take place while sitting in a chair, but most people prefer to receive healing while lying on a couch as it is more relaxing.

Most healers will keep their hands two or three inches above your body, whilst others might lightly touch the body during the healing session (with the client's permission). Some healers will direct the healing energy to all parts of the body, focusing on those areas or organs which specifically need help, whilst others work with the aura and/or the seven main energy centres of the body (known as chakras).
Are There Any Side Effects of Healing?

Healing is suitable for everyone from the very young to the very old.

On receiving healing it is common to experience sensations of tingling, heat or occasionally coolness. These are not painful or uncomfortable and soon pass. Some people find healing so relaxing that afterwards they may need to go home and rest for an hour or so.

The response to a healing session may vary, and the benefits may not be immediately apparent as healing continues long after the session has ended. It is possible to become a little emotional as balance is restored on many levels whilst healing seeks out the underlying causes of the client's problems.
