BODY = ENERGY in art generally precedes science by a decade or so … Is there a causal connection or are artists antennae to the future who anticipate the general changes in thinking that will eventually enter science?"14 As modern scientists continue to rediscover what mystics and visionaries have known for centuries, does it make sense for practitioners of the art of healing to dismiss energetic approaches that might help us alleviate pain, tension, stress, and illness without trying them? Research these days begins to demonstrate the power of intention. In Lynne McTaggart's book The Intention Experiment she reports on a study in which a well-known healer was asked to form different intentions while holding fi ve different Petri dishes in which cancer cells were growing. All samples showed some reduction in cancer cell growth as a result of being energetically infused with intention. The highest reduction came with the simple intention that the natural order of cell growth be restored.15 When working with the blueprint, you are focusing your intention on the natural order of the healthy body. If you would like you to begin integrating this principle into your work, you can experiment with setting as your intention, when you begin work with a client, that the natural order of health be restored in this person. You can form the intention to connect with the information of the blueprint as you work. Use the premise of the blueprint as a reference point for approaching your client. Ask yourself: "What needs to happen to restore balance, order, harmony, and fl ow to this system?" "What new information can I bring to this client today for the purpose of healing?" Remember, from the SourcePoint perspective, the function of the healer is not only to facilitate the fl ow of energy and address physical symptoms but also to bring new information to the client, whether through touch, The patented Spa Anti-Aging Weight Loss Pain Relief Wrap-less Wraps Cellulite Reduction Deep Relaxation Whole Body Skin Care Whole Body Skin Car Call for free DVD 800-417-6789 www.steamywonder.com Steam Therapy transforms your Massage Table into a complete Spa! 94 massage & bodywork september/october 2008 Professional Package $500 Save
