Spiritual healing means differently to different people. In general terms, spiritual healing is a practice to heal a person without any medication. This practice of soul searching or healing by the spirit is common among many diverse cultures. Spiritual healing is possible in the presence of a spiritual healer. Recently, medical professionals and individuals have begun to concern themselves with healing that includes the spirit. Healing is both a Process and a Natural State. Spiritual healing is moving toward wellness and feeling better.
Spiritual Healing
There are two methods of spiritual healing:
- Spiritual practice: when a person does spiritual practice, he grows the ability to protect himself from the harmful elements.
- Spiritual Remedies: in this case either the person affected or another person does some act to provide instant relief to the affected person. The impact of the act is temporary.
Many approaches may involve energy work. Examples include:
- Reiki
- Shiatsu
- Acupuncture
- Acupressure
- Healing Touch (HT)
- Therapeutic Touch (TT)
