Hello!

I've just posted my review of the newly released DVD combo Why People Don't Heal And How They Can & Three Levels Of Power This powerful DVD features 2 PBS presentations by medical intuitive Caroline Myss. She discusses energy anatomy, the nature of disease, healing, and personal power.

I've also posted an article called Five Myths That Prevent Healing based on the information in Why People Don't Heal.

What are your thoughts on managing personal power? On being "hooked" into your history and getting stuck? On the power of forgiveness and present moment living? On the "grace account" of the 7th chakra?

I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Thanks Janet, I really needed a reminder about that third level today, just to be more objective. I'm not sure I understand the grace account, is it also in any of her books?

Hi Heather,

I don't recall reading about the "grace account" in Anatomy or SC, but if it's in the Why People Don't Heal DVD presentation, then I reckon it would be in her book of the same name. Myss believes the 7th chakra is the place where prayers, positive thoughts, well wishes, and grace are "stored". I don't recall seeing that in any other description of the 7th chakra, so it may be just her take. I believe forgiveness also counts for the "grace storage".

You know, I was leaking some energy and am in the process of calling my spirit back, and prayer, forgivness, and positive thoughts gave me a HUGE surge of power.

For years, I've been wrestling with "what's the point of prayer?" I don't go for the traditional belief that we strong arm God with our prayers...and if we just have enough faith or are good little kids, we'll get them answered. I'm realizing that, if for any other reason, prayer somehow gives us an incredible amount of spiritual strength and power...and if we have "extra" stored in there, we can add it to other's energetic "accounts". And, perhaps, this is why some prayers are answered and some are not: when we have a surplus of vital life force energy, we heal faster and stay healthier. If we're constantly leaking energy because of energy leakage (woundology, unforgiveness, living in our history, etc.), then the "extra" generated by prayer or positive thinking just runs right out of us.

The idea of woundology seemed fascinating to me! :rolling: Not that I've neevr thought of it before, but I've never heard it expressed so clearly and logically. Yes, I firmly believe we shouldn't draw a line between our soul and our body, like conventional religious dogmas teach us to do. Our spiritual experiences and our physical condition are all part of the same powerful energy current, and you can't cure your body without curing your soul first. I'll be much more attentive to my energy leakages from now on! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
I've also very much appreciated the Three levels of power approach. I think that it's very important to be able to use your individual power instead of just clinging to your tribal power source. I'm facing this kind of situation currently, and I've firmly decided to do this. And the third realm of power is of a great help in such matters, because it helps you to see the bigger picture and God's presence in your life.
Hope this was more or less clear! <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Love,
Elena

Hi Elena! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Good to see you.

Yes, the concept of Woundology is very fascinating. As I mentioned in my article, I took 17 pages of notes, so it was hard to pick what to share and what to leave out! So much richness...

Myss tells several stories illustrating Woundology. In one story, she shares how she was at Findhorn and was having tea with this lady. (We'll call her Mary.) Mary worked at Findhorn, and a co-worker came over to the table to ask Mary if she was busy that weekend. He mentioned that someone was visiting Findhorn that weekend, and needed someone to show her around.

Mary said "What's the date? Oh no, I can't do it. Not that date. That's the day we meet up at my Incest Survivor Group and we've vowed to never miss meeting together on this particular date."

Later, Myss asked Mary "He asked you a simple yes or no question. Why did you feel it necessary to launch into how you were abused, that you're a survivor of incest, and so on?"

Myss could feel Mary distancing herself from her. Myss said it was the first time she saw Woundology in action so clearly. Sometimes, when challenged or confronted, people pull out a wound to use a social currency, especially since the current social climate is to protect those who are perceived as wounded. This currency is often used to manipulate others or used to keep from moving forward with our life.

Healing (and forgiveness) speeds time up, Myss says. People resist change, especially fast change. So when confronted with ideas like "Do you think maybe it's time to move on?" or "Perhaps it's time to get a job or go back to school...?" and so on, people pull out a wound: "Oh, I can't do that. It's only been a year since so and so died." Or, "Well, I was abused as a child, so I really don't have enough confidence", etc.

Interesting stuff.

Thanks for explaining the grace account, that makes sense, now I get it.

And [censored]! I think I've been pulling a woundology with my excuses for not dating again since my divorce. Duh. Thanks for bringing this up too, both of you. I think I needed to have the reminder. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Heather

You're welcome!

After watching this DVD, it made me more aware of the times I may be "pulling out a wound" myself! eek
