I had a really interesting experience this week. I was doing a healing session for someone and neither of us could stop laughing.
At first, I was like, this is so cool. We both feel so comfortable. And then all of that ego bullshit started and I was starting to question myself. Shouldn’t I be serious? Shouldn’t I be serving this client in the highest and best way possible for their best interest? What’s my reputation going to be? Are people going to judge me for laughing during a healing session?
I decided that all these people who say laughter is the best medicine are totally right – and it has really transformed how I have been approaching healing sessions. Ok – for the rest of the week… but it’s really given me amazing insight!
I am curious if anyone else has ever had a fit of laughter during a healing session? The process of releasing limiting beliefs, blocks or restrictions, past trauma is really an emotional one and sometimes the emotion that comes through is far more positive than negative. Don’t get me wrong… I have had tons of healing sessions where people cry the whole time. But this new idea of someone laughing through a healing session with me – I LOVE it!
I am super excited to explore the opportunity to use laughter as a healing tool. Up to now, I have tried to maintain a serious demeanor in my healing sessions, but that’s not me. In the path of fully aligning with who I am and honoring who I want to be as a healer, I am making the choice to include the ability to express yourself as my client, during a healing session, in any way that feels right to you.
Have any of you ever been to a healer that is so serious and stuffy that it brings up a fear for you? I have. Usually it is someone that I deem to be really well regarded and well respected. That creates a little bit fear and separation. I don’t want that for my clients. I want my clients to feel totally comfortable, totally at ease. Like I am their soul sister and they can tell me anything and feel totally comfortable with whatever comes up.
5 years ago, you never would have caught me crying in front of anyone. Any now I cry with my clients all the time. Sometimes it’s wonderful tears, sometimes it’s sorrow… sometimes its trauma. So why can’t I laugh with them… there is NO reason. I can’t believe that I put this restriction on myself, up to this point. So I am curious if anybody else uses laughter as a healing tool in whatever modality they work with?
Peace and Badass Magic!
