Spiritual Healing
An Interesting Spiritual Healing FactSpiritual Healing-Deeply Rooted in ChristianitySpiritual and physical healing have deep roots in the history of Christianity.

What Is Spiritual Healing?Spiritual healing can involve the body, mind, and spirit and often goes beyond our human intelligence. Spiritual healing is recognition of a higher power beyond our own limits. We have an acceptance and a relationship with a Higher Power, or God that gives us inspiration, security, peace, joy, and spiritual guidance. Spiritual people believe the body, mind, and spirit should work together and be in harmony for good physical and emotional health. Spiritual healing can be channeled from a human source that is sometimes called a healer. A healer will usually put their hands on the patient and the healing energy is transferred. The healer is not the one who creates the healing power; it is God or another Higher Power. Healing power is channeled through the healer's hands that are laid on the part of the body that is in need of healing. It could be a mental or emotional problem or it could be a physical problem such as a stiff knee. You do not need to have a "healer" to be spiritually healed.

This connection to a Supreme Being will help people regardless of their income or intelligence. Spirituality is not the same as religion. Religions involve doctrines and belief systems and humanity's relationship with God. Spirituality is when there is a connection between a human and a higher power, something stronger than the human being and the order of the universe. God is the term used most often in the Western culture but there are other names credited to this Higher Power, too many to try to list. Many will receive inspiration from a walk in nature, watching a beautiful sunset, or seeing the precious smile of a child. Studies report that Americans will spend over one and a half billion dollars on books about spirituality and religion. The report states that over 44 million Americans identify with spiritual healing and almost half of all Americans have had alternative health...........read more
