My client [name withheld] for whom we did a family clearing wrote complaining she felt no changes and wonders why. She is leery of phone healing sessions and is not too happy. Can you comment on her experience and give any useful guidance we can pass along to her?

Hers is a situation of great difficulty because of having so many layers that hold her problems and issues in place. This is largely perceived through the emotional layer, and the emotions are stemming from the deep difficulties she faces, the burdens she carries, and the traumas she has survived that have left their mark. As you know yourself, this requires much one-on-one healing work because all of these sources of difficulty cause changes within a person, including their belief systems, and are held onto, in a sense, by the mind and body as open wounds, and the need for them as a remembrance of what happened will keep them in place in many cases and many times will prevent a divine rescue to wash it all away. So, in effect, these battle scars become an identity and when embraced and held tightly, become a free will choice of the client and we cannot simply go in and remove it all. So there were many things gained from the session. It is that those things most troublesome for her were the deep emotional burdens and the difficulties underlying them. So, the healing is not being perceived. We can assure her that there were many useful things accomplished and they will play out in many ways with an easier life in some respects going forward. But this will not be perceived in the absence of a parallel life that would serve as a control in which healing was not applied. That being impossible, she will not see the true benefits in the absence of something to compare with. We would simply encourage her to seek out the further healing you recommended for her, with whomever she feels comfortable and will trust. The type of work you do is quite appropriate and would not be unduly stressful, but she must go where she has confidence and this we understand and would not force the issue. Having trust and confidence is always an important element in receiving healing of any kind because the openness to the changes must be present for healing to happen. The person has a large say in whether healing is allowable. She has much more power than she realizes. It is only that her power is being used to hold her problems in place more than allow change. This is a common dilemma and is reinforced through habit and through having such a long period of struggle with seemingly no resolution. These are the most difficult things to overcome. They take much persistence and effort to turn them around and make sufficient progress to be rewarding, and then receive, finally, enough benefit to be rewarding and gain further confidence that the investment in the healing is worth it.
