“I need to practice with eight people in person and 20 people remotely to get my healing certification. Can you be one of my hands on people?” Of course I would assist my best friend of 45 years. She had been doing Brazilian Spiritual Healing with a prayer group for almost ten years, and she had recently enrolled in something called Geo Love Healing. She said it was an advanced course she had been taking for the past few months and she had just returned from a gathering of healers that met from around the world to learn this new technique.
I read about Reiki and other energy work, and have always been interested, but not enough to do anything about it. I considered becoming a Reiki Master when Amy Allan, from the Dead Files, said people needed to hire energy healers to get spirits out of their home. That was a certification I could get behind. Then I would finally get paid. Making and hustling art is not like winning the lottery. But I looked up the coursework to become a Reiki master and I never followed through. Someday, I thought, but then forgot. It was no surprise Joy would be doing this type of work. She has always been a healer. Since we were children she had attempted to heal my allergies, my bronchitis, and my sprained or broken body parts. She always brought me delicious morsels, made from scratch (with love), teas, healing tinctures, plants, honey and flowers. This lady is a mother robin and the world is her nest. She had four of her own children and stayed home for their entire childhoods. When I expressed how hard staying at home was for me, she countered she loved it and it was the most wonderful thing in the world. My friend radiated love and goodness from her soul. Joy smells like fresh baked bread and she feels like a warm embrace. Four years ago I broke my ankle, it was a rotten, swollen, purple, blasted bubble. She was at my house in minutes, rubbing it gently and lovingly with castor oil, giving me homeopathic arnica, icing my ankle, elevating it, doing what she always did, helping me heal. This year my health care provider told me I needed a blood transfusion and to drink liquid iron that made me nauseous and caused my teeth to turn black. I was diagnosed with severe anemia. Who showed up at my house that night with raspberry and nettle leaves, beet roots and other iron rich vegetables, and even a tea infusion pot? She even brewed it for me, showing me how to get my hormones in balance, naturally. Joy, of course. I never had to go to the hospital, was able to dump the liquid iron poison and I felt like myself in half the time the doctors said it would take. When Joy asked if I’d be her test dummy, I jumped at the chance. It is exciting to support her during her personal transformational process. She’s finally doing what she was born to do. She is learning to heal herself by healing others. Joy’s pure and spiritual nature will finally have an outlet. This woman has never put herself first, as long as we’ve been friends. She always put her kids, her husband, her friends or her animals first. She’s doing it for all the right reasons, to make the world a better place. I love her so much. I waited for her call. When she contacted me, I was watching my great God niece and nephew. Their grandmother, my cousin, had just passed and their dad needed some processing time. I waited until we all had adequate time and space, and then made the appointment to go to her house when the kids returned home. Joy thought we may need to reschedule as I had the little wild ones overnight, funeral arrangements to plan, people to contact and cleaning to do. It’s always a good time to get energy healing, though, and it was self care Sunday, so I thought, screw the dishes in the sink, then flew to her new place, only 30 minutes away. She had just moved into the cutest little studio apartment. I was excited to see her new space. I wasn’t sure if I was at the right place. “Flying lessons?” Adorable seasonal décor, but it looked like someone had lived there for a while, not newly moved in. It was all hers. She made everything feel so homey. I brought her a housewarming plant and it fit right in with her other patio plants. She verbally welcomed it to her home, and then brought me inside for some mint tea and conversation. The space was clean, and I felt like I was at home, though it was my first visit. We chatted about our journeys, personal growth and our own practices of self healing. I felt so comfortable. We shared our goals and spoke about painful obstacles we have already faced and where we were currently directing our energies. I was working on forgiving the man that raped me in childhood. Joy is releasing her own insecurities, and has thrown herself into her courses to become a master healer. She will be certified and regularly practicing soon. Joy works as an office manager but has been an X-ray technician and dental technician. Spiritual healing is more suited to her personality. I would know, we’ve been friends for my entire life. The healing began when Joy set our intentions, speaking aloud that we were working with only the most evolved and highest order of healing entities, and our creator. She directed me to open my heart, and instructed me to allow spirit to work through her into me. She explained I might experience physical sensations, visual phenomenon or emotional release; tears and even anger. She said there may be deep rooted trauma that could possibly surface. She related it would be temporary and every person experiences the healing in a unique way. My eyes were closed, and she guided me to open my heart. I witnessed a glowing light of shining green sparkling from within. I was lying face down, on a comfy quilt covered mattress. This is the standard position I get in when I have acupuncture or massage services. She placed another quilt over me and wrapped me up like I was a morphing caterpillar within a snuggly cocoon. As she began the work, the colors transformed into a turquoise blue, white, then yellow. After about ten minutes of this meditation, I witnessed a dark reddish mud color that slid down, from my head to my lower back. It turned black and went into my legs then to the soles of my feet. During this time I could feel physical sensations. The tips of my right fingers and my forearm started to become numb. Then one of my ovaries pulsated, just a bit of pressure, and then the sensation moved into my feet. My right foot felt warm then burned hot. In my mind's eye the bottom of it was pure black. My eyes were closed but I wondered if Joy was standing right at my feet doing her work. I didn’t peek, I just remained still. In guided meditative practice videos, they always say to “Go back to your breath,” if your thoughts drift to other places. I have adult ADD, so I need this kind of specific guidance. Thinking of chores? Back to the breath! You forgot to grab dental floss when you stopped at the store. Back to the breath. Did you make that deposit? Back to the breath. I sat still and let my mind wander to a million different things, but kept returning back, where I was supposed to be, in the breath, with the body and I saw the energy transform. As the black in my feet started dissipating, the heat from my soles faded away. A waterfall of tiny golden white strands of light cascaded down from my head to my feet. It stayed for a few minutes and I could follow each individual thread if I wanted to. Everything went dark, but not uncomfortably. A radiant, dark blueish, purple light surrounded me. It felt like floating in space, I was detached from my physical body. I have meditated before and have experienced different visuals and color sensations, but have never experienced this before. I could feel my body, but my spirit seemed elevated. I would equate it to floating in a large body of water. I was in that space for a while, then I became aware of a soft, fluffy lavender color, which looked as if it felt like down bedding. It was such a contrast to the dark blue space, and I welcomed it. I smelled something then, a scent that I can only describe as "home." The odor was comforting, and it reminded me of a mixture of cedar, sandalwood and fresh baked pastries. I wasn't sure if it was the place I was in, or if it was in my mind. With the awareness of the scent came another color, a reddish brown, orange; it was warm like sun drenched adobe. I felt comfortable, safe and loved. Joy informed me gently that the session was complete. She spoke softly and quietly. I noticed the ethereal music playing in the room. The temperature was cool. She directed me to take my time, to stretch out my physical body as needed, and to come back into myself at my own comfort level. We shared in detail what we experienced during the session. Joy explained what she was doing during the same parts of the energy healing when I saw each color. Her experience and mine were incredibly parallel, the points of interchange and timing were exact. She was surprised at how aligned our energies were. There was no strong separation between her force and mine. She expressed that she had done many healings and that it was completely different than what she had experienced in the past. She noticed that my energy was pushing back in my shoulder area, and she had to work harder to get my energy to flow freely without resistance, especially in that area. I have numbness and pain and get regular massages. I had acupuncture to remedy the circulation issues in my fingers and arm because of knotted muscles in my neck and right shoulder. Massage therapists have said they could feel the tightness and knots. That is where I have the most pain in my body. Joy felt that push back. She also explained what the golden strands of light were used for, how that energy blasts through, cleansing and pushing the toxic elements from my spirit body then filling me with healing light. She thought it was wonderful that I could see the actual work that she was doing. Joy shared that when she accidentally used her own energy, she recognized it, then surrendered the work to spirit. That was the remote healing process. My spirit was moved into a bubble. That was during the time I felt my body go "into space." When I transitioned from floating in dark blue space to seeing a bright fluffy lavender squishy cotton type fabric, Joy said she was actually wrapping me (mentally) in a blanket of healing lavender flowers. The correlation wasn't surprising, but it was confirmation that the healing was working and our energies were completely aligned. Lavender is not a common color during my meditation. We shared our experiences, going back and forth about what happened when I saw things and what she was harnessing at that time. She noticed I had an excessive amount of spiritual cords she had to remove from my lower back. It didn’t hit me until I was almost home, what those cords were doing there. She said usually she will find them in the heart chakra or crown chakra region. They are attachments to other people, alive or crossed over. I knew mine were from my husband who experiences severe pain in his lower back region. I’m a physical medium, and sometimes when I stand too close to him I’ll feel a jolting painful sensation there. I’ll yell at him, to stop giving me his pain, it’s an ongoing joke. “Take my pain!” but I try to give it back to him. Thank you, Joy, one point for me. He'll have a hard time getting another cord there, now that I'm aware. Joy explained that after the session I could experience a wide range of physical sensations, from exhilaration to vomiting. She expressed that I may feel energized and wonderful or exhausted and ill. She recommended I drink a lot of water. I do that anyway. She advised me to take it easy and take time to process anything that may arise in my body, mind or spirit. I went home and finished the dishes, I couldn't help it. I felt lovely. This was an unexpected gift, and a successful therapeutic experience. I have been working on myself for the last ten years, with much success, using meditation, journaling, massage, yoga, exercise, nutrition and art therapy. I had never experienced an out-of-body floating in space consciousness before. It was wondrous and a substantial intimacy. I felt very connected to the universe. Love overflows in Joy’s work. Because I went into the session without expectation, I was elated with the results. There were honest concerns that the black tar pulled from my soul that slid out of my feet would somehow attach to Joy, but she was very upbeat and positive that she was protected, and the working space was secured. She claimed any toxicity would go where it needed to go and be lovingly healed. I could not have asked for a better Geo Love Practitioner. I felt safe and comfortable in her hands. Every step throughout the process confirmed her loving spirit is capable and talented. Joy is doing what she was born to do.
