Who can become a healer?



So, you have been touched by the power of spiritual healing in some way, and you would like to become a practitioner. But can you? And if you can, then how should you go about it? Would you be any good at it? Spiritual healing is, by definition, the use of non-physical means to treat illness or affliction. Sometimes referred to as “faith healing,” spiritual healing is a type of treatment generally considered to be classified as “alternative” or non-traditional. Yet the roots of spiritual healing go back for centuries, and some form of this treatment have been shown to exist is almost every culture known to history. At its core, spiritual healing involves channeling a type of energy from one person, the “healer,” to another. Practitioners claim that this energy can help to heal or alleviate physical, mental or spiritual ailments. The healer is generally thought to be a medium for the healing powers that are coming from a higher power, or spirit. The First Spiritual Temple, an independent church that embraces many traditional and modern belief systems, maintains that anyone can become a healer, so long as their intent is to follow God’s wishes. Their belief is that all healing comes from God, and people are merely His channels. There is also the common view that prayer works as one of the best methods of healing, and in that regard, anyone who can pray can become a spiritual healer. So it appears anyone can become a spiritual healer, as long as you are open to the belief that your healing will be effective. The decision then becomes about how much training you want to undertake, and what type of healing you would like to administer. Some of the options include Reiki, Healing Touch, Therapeutic Touch, Chios (energy field healing), Polarity Therapy and Qi Gong, to name a few. A simple internet search reveals countless training programs for would-be spiritual healers. Most of them claim that anyone can take the courses, although some imply that psychic abilities would be helpful. Keep in mind that some courses are more lengthy and involved than others, and some carry hefty fees. For instance, there are many brief, weekend-type Reiki classes available, but don’t expect to become a Reiki Master in two days. Traditional training, taught in three levels, can take up to four years, and students must be initiated or “attuned” by a Reiki Master to become qualified. Training can cost up to and beyond $10,000. Others in the Reiki community believe that there are certain people who are gifted with the talent to perform Reiki without training – but in order to become official, they too, must be attuned by a master. There are also classes taught by hospitals, spas, churches and dedicated spiritual healing institutions. Doctors, nurses and massage therapists are among those professionals who have sought training and certification in spiritual healing. Those who are considering going into the field of spiritual healing must not underestimate the power of those whom they are treating. It is often held within the spiritual healing community that the recipient of the therapy must be open to the treatment for it to work. From that standpoint, there seems to be an implication that, in some cases, that effectiveness of the treatment relies as much, if not more, upon the patient than the practitioner. To begin this journey, find a teacher you can respect and trust, and listen to your own inner voices to guide you along the path. Don’t rely on quick answers, but do a thorough job of learning the methods and practices of spiritual healing.
