		<description><![CDATA[The following is a healing exercise excerpted directly from Light Emerging: The Journey of Personal Healing by Barbara Brennan: Lie down, and imagine the nice pleasant sun inside the solar plexus (stomach area) of your body. Pretty soon, you will feel much better, and your stomach will feel warm. Probably even your breathing will slow down as you begin to relax more. If you want to expand this relaxation to include your spirit, remember a wonderful religious or spiritual experience you have had, perhaps as a child. Remember that special, wonderful time when you knew that God (whatever that means personally to you) existed and that being alive was a most natural and holy experience &#8211; so natural that it wasn&#8217;t a concern. You didn&#8217;t give God a second thought. Let yourself float into that experience and be held peacefully in the arms of the creator. By doing this, you have changed your energy flow. You have put yourself into a powerful healing state. Feel your energy now. Do you like it? The relaxed healing state you feel corresponds to your energy field as it becomes more coherent, as well as to a slowing down of your brain waves. They [...]]]></description>

<p>Lie down, and imagine the nice pleasant sun inside the solar plexus (stomach area) of your body. Pretty soon, you will feel much better, and your stomach will feel warm. Probably even your breathing will slow down as you begin to relax more. If you want to expand this relaxation to include your spirit, remember a wonderful religious or spiritual experience you have had, perhaps as a child. Remember that special, wonderful time when you knew that God (whatever that means personally to you) existed and that being alive was a most natural and holy experience &#8211; so natural that it wasn&#8217;t a concern. You didn&#8217;t give God a second thought. Let yourself float into that experience and be held peacefully in the arms of the creator. By doing this, you have changed your energy flow. You have put yourself into a powerful healing state. Feel your energy now. Do you like it?</p>
<p>The relaxed healing state you feel corresponds to your energy field as it becomes more coherent, as well as to a slowing down of your brain waves. They can be measured with an EEG. It will probably show that your brain is in alpha rhythm, about 8 Hz or cycles per second, which is known to be a healing state. A magnetic field detector would show that your energy field is pulsating at 7.8 or 8 Hz. This is a very natural energy state for everyone.</p>
<p><strong>The process of healing is a process of releasing our creative force for the mastery of health and well-being&#8230;much of illness is a result of blocking the natural flow of an individual&#8217;s creative energies.</strong></p>

 by Barbara Ann Brennan:</em></p>
<p>An untreatable diagnosis is a statement about the medical system, not the patient. If given as a statement about the patient&#8217;s condition, it puts patients at a distinct disadvantage in their healing process. It leaves little if any room for the creative process of healing to come forth from the patient. It leaves no room for alternative care systems. It is far better when a physician says &#8220;I have done all I can for you. I am, at this time, unaware of any other treatments I can offer. If you wish, I will stand by you and keep you as comfortable as I can. Perhaps someone else knows another way.&#8221;</p>
<p>This is what all physicians are responsible for. They cannot take responsibility for other people&#8217;s lives or their health. Physicians cannot play God. This ought to be a relief to them. Yes, physicians have the light of God within every cell of their beings. But so does every patient. Physicians are likely to have more access to healing power than any given patient at any given time. But patients have complete ability to learn to tap into their power, which also ought to be a relief to the physician.</p>
<p>The responsibilities we have placed upon our physicians, and that they have shouldered, are simply neither fair nor realistic. They are based on the mechanistic model. If a physician is supposed to give us a pill or do surgery to take away something separate from us that is bothering us, then he or she becomes the responsible one. It is as if we had nothing to do with it.</p>
