Spirituality, closely associated with spiritual healing, is the opening up of the mind to the existence of a greater force than one. It is said to bring about a connection to one’s mind that helps one achieve certain things such as a high sense of calmness, inner strength, confidence, a boost in self-esteem, and many more positive results.
Spiritual healing is an alternative form of healing that uses the concept of spirituality to assist individuals with their physical and mental health. In today’s world, spiritual healing has served as an alternative to medical treatments for treating mental conditions such as depression which has become rampant in Australia and other developed nations.
This article explains spiritual healing and how it can benefit one’s mental heal
What is Spiritual Healing?
Spiritual healing is an alternative form of healing and treatment which is used instead of or to complement modern medicine. It is defined as an interaction of a first individual, who is the healer, with a second individual, who is the recipient, to improve the recipient’s health and well-being. It is believed that the effect of spiritual healing, which is therapeutic, comes from the healing energy of which the healer is a channel, passing this healing energy from an assumed source to the recipient.
Spirituality is recognising a greater force that helps one achieve certain things and at the same time, creates a deeper connection between one and their environment. It is with this concept that spiritual healing occurs. Spirituality, however, is not the same thing as religion. We can safely say that religion is institutionalised spirituality. Religion is the practice of beliefs and patterns by a set of people, while spirituality is an individual conviction. Spirituality can be obtained in different ways including meditation, heightened self-awareness, religion, and some other ways and patterns.
Mental health issues such as anxiety and depression have been helped using spiritual healing which Asian countries have long since practised. They believe that it takes the wellness of all the elements of one, body, soul, and spirit, for one to be truly whole. Centuries of this practice could very well contribute to some Asian countries having the longest life expectancies in the world.
Now that all the definitions are out of the way, let’s look at the benefits of spiritual healing and its effects on the mind.
Benefits Of Spiritual Healing
Spiritual healing as a necessity for living has profound benefits that include but are not limited to;
- Increased feeling of wellness
- Display of positive emotions
- Positive change in self-concepts and lifestyle
- Provision of strength for tough times
- Faster recovery time from illnesses
- Boosts self-esteem, confidence, and self-control
- Helps you deal with emotional stress and handle life situations reasonably
- It helps to improve relationships with yourself, and the people around you
Disadvantages Of Spiritual Healing
Spiritual healing, not so surprisingly, has little to no disadvantages. The only drawback is to the healer, who temporarily feels the symptoms of the receiver before dispelling it into the atmosphere.
Final thoughts?
Spiritual healing is an alternative therapy that helps heal the mind without the use of medicine. It can assist with mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and symptomatic medical issues. It is also known to positively affect the mind and body, keeping one healthy mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Although legitimized by the World Health Organization, spiritual healing remains a mystery to science today.
