The Universal Laws and Healing


If you have been following this blog, you know I have been dealing with asthma. Are you wondering how I am feeling now that I uncovered the belief of feeling overwhelmed and restricted? I feel great, but like I said in the previous blog, it is not enough to deal with the thoughts that create diseases; we have to  work also with the laws that govern them in order to heal fully.  
The Law or Principle of Polarity is forever presenting us with thoughts and images that can easily be impressed upon our minds, whether they are negative or positive. Through the Law of Attraction, we attract them to match the ones we are already thinking.
Karmic also plays a major role in our life stories. Nothing happens by chance. Whatever health condition we are experiencing may be deriving from a cause that we cannot perceive or understand in the present life. We are more or less tied to our past lives, heredity, environment and thoughts. Everything we think, say or do has a direct or indirect influence on our health.  Remember Redd Foxx, the actor, who played Sanford on the sitcom Sanford and Son. He was always faking a heart attack, stating he was having the big one. He literally died of one.
Here is a list of the seven Hermetic or Universal Laws that govern all life. However, I recommend the following books for an in depth study of them: The Kybalion by The Three Initiates and Wayne Chandler’s book, Ancient Future
·         The Principle of Mentalism. All is mind.
·         The Principle of Correspondence. As above, so below
·         The Principle of Vibration. Nothing rests; Everything moves
·         The Principle of Polarity. Everything is dual.
·         The Principle of Rhythm. Everything flows. Tides come in an out.
·         The Principle of Cause and Effect. For every action, there’s a reaction.
·         The Principle of Gender. The masculine and feminine principle is in everything.
Dr. Frederick Bailes in his book, Your Mind Can Heal You, describes how the Principle of Mentalism works in accordance with health. Read this repeatedly until you really grasp the concept: It (the One Mind) knows the mechanics of building cells, but it must always follow a plan. It will follow a disease pattern as quickly as it will follow a health pattern. Thus, the person whose thought life is characterized by destructive thoughts, with its fears, hates, grudges, envying; with its discussion of, and absorption in, sickness and sadness, is thus creating a thought-pattern which the ceaseless creative activity of Mind fabricates into disease forms, quite impersonally, but none the less certainly. Our privilege is to take definite steps to change that underlying thought-pattern into one of health, love, peace, and happiness.

  P.s. the Law of Attraction is not one of the seven Hermetic Laws, but it can be placed under the Principle of Vibration.

Part II How Your Mind Can Heal You


A week has passed since I felt as though I was catching a cold. I have gone from bad to good and back to bad again. However, looking closer at my symptoms, I realized I was having a recurrence of adult asthma, something I didn’t want to claim. Now it was back to the drawing board to uncover the thought manifesting the asthma.
Someone emailed me a question after reading the previous blog. She wanted to know how do you determine what thought is creating a particular illness. In that blog, I mentioned Louise Hays’ book, Heal Your Body. It has a great section on habitual thoughts that create diseases.  However, I prefer to do automatic writing, going deep within my own subconscious mind to find the answer.    
Automatic writing is an easy procedure to do. It’s best if you’re alone, and it’s quiet. Turn off the phone, TV, radio, computer or anything that is a distraction. I write down my concern in the form of a question. “What is the thought that has now manifested in my body as asthma?” Then I sit quietly, pray or meditate that I may receive an answer from The Creator or one of Her Light beings such as an angel, spirit guide, Master Teacher, ancestor or maybe my Higher Self. Eventually, thoughts flow, and I write them down as quickly as I can. Later I review the information and select whatever resonates with my mind and heart.  
  In this case, I received this response. The thought of being overwhelmed with the duties of life is restricting the life flow. I knew I wasn’t going to heal until I released not only the thought, but also the negative emotions of fear and anxiety giving it power.
It was time for me to take back my power by reviewing the universal laws or Hermetic teachings that govern all life in order to heal. There is no healing modality on Earth that works outside of these laws.
