Distant healing with WHEE
I have three of your books and believe in distant surrogate/proxy WHEE, but haven't been able to get it working. I get the impression that ability to induce physical changes from a distance is strongly related to the bioenergetic balance without our systems. I spend at least 25 minutes/day doing slow abdominal ujjayi breathing per day, use WHEE and related myself, follow Eckhart Toll's teachings, etc. What can I do to increase my 'prayer power'?
If you come to Australia at any stage please let me know.

Dear Blake,
You ask deep and important questions, to which human answers are but partial
guesses/ intuits/ understandings/ ...
Wholistic healing is not a ‘perform on demand’ modality. It taps into the
collective consciousness, where each of us is like a brain cell in the mind of
the All.
The mind of the All often has views, understandings and plans that are far more
complex than we can begin to conceive or even imagine.
Spiritual healing is a petition to the Infinite Source to shift what exists in
present time. Sometimes we offer our healing at propitious/ intuited times when
there are needs for extra energies/ unconditional love/ boosts to confidence/
encouragements to think/ look/ step outside the boxes we build around
ourselves.
Sometimes we see the possibilities for changes that others are not yet ready/
able to see. They may need energies for clearing old hurts/ traumas/ feelings/
etc in order to open a door in the walls they have built around themselves.
If we direct energies with the intent to change, before the other person has
become aware of/ dealt with/ learned the lessons of whatever their life path is
about, then the other person cannot/ will not accept our healing wishes/
energies.
If we send energies ‘for the highest good’ of others, then they are free to
accept the energies for exactly whatever it is that they need at that moment.
Thanks for your question, which has helped me put into words in a more succinct
way than before what I believe healing is about.
Thanks
Blessings

Dr. Benor i agree with your definition of spiritual healing, and what is needed to have the extra energy accepted. But how does a spiritual healer send the energy from a distance? is it usually a visual, felt, or sound process, or somethng else? Thanks.

Good Question, Anne!
I have two answers:
1. If you are asking about the mechanism(s) by which distant healing is effective, the answer is that no one knows for sure. Many scientists have addressed this question, considering all known forms of energies and the little that is known about consciousness.
Because the effects of all known energies diminish with distance from the source of energy, no such theory appears tenable because distant healing effects occur around the world and there does not appear to be a diminished effect.
The same is true of psychic telepathy, clairsentience, precognition and psychokinesis (mind influencing matter). Based on this information, my own belief is that we are all part of a collective consciousness that includes all other people, all other living beings, and all other so-called inanimate matter in the universe. I believe that it is consciousness that makes distant healing possible.
See summaries of researchon psychic abilities at http://wholistichealingresearch.com/psi_research.html
2. If you are asking about the mental processes by which healers send healing, these vary broadly according to the healing traditions/ methodologies, belief systems of healers, and their personal gifts of healing.
Some use mental imagery, visualizing the changes required to achieve health or visualizing the desired end state of health. As you note, there may be a felt state of connectedness, toning or chanting, healing rituals, etc. Others invoke prayers, and some of these include beliefs that if prayers are not offered within their own religious frameworks of belief that they are no good or even the work of the devil. Prayers may be outcome-oriented, in which case the healer may again be pushing the healee towards the healer's desired goal states of health. Prayers may be invitations to the healee to shift, change and grow; and/or to a higher power to intervene to facilitate the same - leaving the outcome to the higher wisdom of the healee and the higher power.
The common denominators of mental processes involved in the healer, elucidated brilliantly by Lawrence LeShan, are:
1. Quieting the healer's mind (centering/ meditation exercises are helpful)
2. Connecting mentally with the healee
3. Connecting mentally with the All
LeShan L. The Medium, the Mystic and the Physicist, New York: Ballantine 1977. (UK edition: Clairvoyant Reality, Wellingborough, UK: Thorsons 1974). (Psychologist studied healers, found common denominators in methods, learned to heal and teach healing. Excellent theoretical discussion on healing, altered states of consciousness, and other dimensions of reality.)
For a broad overview of healers' beliefs about how healing works, see
Benor, Daniel J, Healing Research: Volume I, Spiritual Healing: Scientific Validation of a Healing Revolution, Wholistic Healing Publications 2007 (Orig. 2001). Healers describe their work, research in parapsychology as a context for understanding healing, brief summaries of randomized controlled studies, pilot studies.
