Just a quick word about healing, as in healing other people, being able to heal other people as it was mentioned upthread and I feel a ramble coming on.
Outside of the allopathic medical system, no-one can claim to heal another person or animal. Typically in the UK there are stricter rules about healing for animals than there are for people.
Anyone who claims to be a non-allopathic healer and says they personally can heal another person is to be avoided like the plague. If anyone claims to do that, they cannot obtain complementary therapists insurance which is essential if they wish to run a practice.
All that healers can do at the very most is to help the person who wants healing kick-start their own energy system, so that person can maybe heal themselves. I say maybe, because even if the healer can spur the person on to clear an energy-blockage, often over quite a few sessions and often with the same sort of advice that's been given here, it's not always a given that the person will be permanently healed because most people don't want to make the effort to keep on with the mindfulness, the self-nurture, the healthy food, the healthy lifestyle, the reframing thoughts, the gratitude and all the other things it may take to be the best they can be. Mostly they say they are too busy to carry on, yet generally we're all as busy. Making time for self-nurture is difficult and like all the rest of self-development, it takes time and effort.
These days the quick fix is promoted for everything. Life is structured so no-one has to wait for anything, you can order things and have them delivered the same day, no problem if you haven't the money, just tap an app and it's there for you
Become a healer or a shaman over a weekend course. Struggling to do Y? Buy X and you will be able to do Y immediately.
Never has there been more instant gratification and life hacks for everything.
Taking a different route in life to all of that and often whilst having to co-exist with it and experiencing peer-pressure is a harder journey and it's not for everyone. It's not a bed of roses. It's often solitary and involves a lot of self-realisation, some of which takes quite some time to fully understand. Once you've reached a point where you reckon you've understood and can progress easily, often something else happens and everything you thought was right or good on some level can be turned on its head and you have something else to work out and work through.
No-one can do that for you. Another person can possibly help initially if you choose a system that will suit you, but no-one else can heal you.
Do look up Locus of Control because it does make a big difference to a person's outlook. It can be shifted, but as above, it's a long work in progress for many.
I'll get off my soapbox and put it away now
