Pranic Healing


PRANIC HEALING

Pranic healing is an ancient science of healing that uses ‘prana’ or the vital energy to heal one’s and others. Prana is a Sanskrit word that means life-force;the Chinese call it chi an d the greek refers it to pneuma or the breath of life.
It is the prana that the healer uses to balance ,harmonise and transform the body’s energy processes.
Before going deep into the intricacies of pranic healing ,its essential to know about the human body.
Our body is not just about a firm structure of bones surrounded by cushions of flesh nourished by miles and miles of blood vessels.
If we turn the pages of\our vedic scriptures ,we find the human body has been described into ‘annamaya kosh’, the physical body and the ‘pranamaya kosh’,the bioplasmic body.
The bioplasmic body is the invisible luminous energy body the interpenetrates the physical body and extends up to four to five inches from the physical boundries of our body.To put it simply,it is like a halo around our entire body.
We all know about the vital organs and processes that keep us alive,but what most of us don’t know is that our body has 360 chakras ;of which 11 major charkas control and vitalize our organs.
The basic premise of pranic healing is self recovery and the presence of prana that can be accelerated to heal the affected organs(due to the particular illness).
However pranic healing is not just about curing illness and disabilities which affect our physical body.Pranic healing also removes negative emotions, tendencies ,feelings and thoughts from the mind rendering it free from various mental illnesses that we have heard of .Moreover .pranic healing can also be used to mend relationships and usher happiness in the house one lives in.
A healing session usually lasts 30-40 minutes and the number of sittingsrequired depends entire upon the severity of the disease and the response of the patient.e.g. a typical patient of migraine may require 10-12 sittings with the healer with three sittings per week.

Mode of administration

Pranic healing is administered in the following steps:
1)Sensitizing the hands by rubbing the palms of opposite hands with each other.
2)Scanning the aura using sensitized hands
3)Sweeping: it refers to cleansing of the whole body as well as of charkas
4)Increasing the receptivity of the patients
5)Energising with prana
6)Stablizing the projected prana
7)Releasing the projected pranic energy

Pranic healing also uses colours and crystals to increase the rate of healing.these falls under advanced pranic healing.A healer uses green colour to disinfect the whole body or blue colour to soothe a stressed organ.
Crystals are added to the healers repertoire to heal faster.they but are also used in armlets to prevent psychic attack.
Pranic psychotherapy is a completely different system that deals with non physical ailments like anxiety,depression,panic attacks,phobias and other mental disorders.
Interestingly,pranic healing does not restrict itself to energies within the body,the prana can be borrowed from three major sources i.e. sun,air and ground.solar prana is prana from sunlight that can be obtained by sun bathing for 10-15 mins everyday or by drinking water that has been exposed to sunlight .
Air prana is absorbed by lungs through breathing.slower the breathing better is the absorption.ground prana is gained through soles of the feet .walking barefoot increases the amount of prana absorbed by the body
We all have the devine in us.we all have the ability to heal,we all have the power and the instinct to heal ourselves and others.
So next time when you see a patient,don’t just look at the sallow skin or listen to his heart but also think of the charkas that define their physical being..think of the prana that can heal him ,yourself and others..
