This article will focus on the sometimes difficult task of picking a spiritual healer. Depending on where you live your choices may vary between a few healers to hundreds of available practitioners who offer a wide variety of esoteric sounding services.

Although looking for a healer takes you out of the bounds of the traditional healing arts you do not need to suspend your logic or judgment. Just keep these four questions in mind when looking for spiritual healers.

1. Friends are a great source of referrals – Talking with friends and family would probably be the first place you would go if you were looking for a doctor or dentist. Why not do the same thing when looking for a spiritual healer. Find out from people that you know if they have had any experience with healers. Ask what results did they get. Did they feel better. What was the healer like. How many times did they go to see them etc…

2. Confidence is ones skills and abilities is important – A money back policy is normal when you purchase most products or services. Is the practitioner you are talking with confident enough in their work to guarantee the results? A guarantee does not mean you have to throw away your crutches in one session but you should feel satisfied with the results. The healers confidence in their work can be a determining factor in whether you see them.

3. How many sessions will be required – Although it is unlikely that the full extent of any healers abilities can be felt in only one session, does the healer give you an idea of how many sessions it will take to clear your immediate problem.

4. There is a common feeling that someone somewhere can make all of our problem completely vanish. What type of results will make you happy with your sessions? Would you be happy if you problem was reduced by 65% after 3 visits? Is it successful enough to say you would like more sessions or is it just enough to say that is all you want and can now function very well.

It is very important to ask the above questions. You are the one in control of your life. Keeping these questions in mind you should be able to find a spiritual healer that you can work with.

We are able to show the world our true nature by the words that we use. Our words reveal our emotions and our emotions reveal our thoughts. The words that we use and their impact on spiritual growth will be the focus of this article.

Our ideal state is reached through the process of spiritual growth. Our ideal state is when our true nature shines through. And our true nature is that which was given to use by our creator.

The inner beauty of our true nature will shine through only when we remove the filters that block it. What makes up these filters? The filters are made of our thoughts and emotions. Our words are what expresses both our thoughts and emotions.

Why have I chosen to focus on the words that we use? I could easily have focused on thoughts or emotions. I decided that words were the easiest to observe so I decided to choose them for observation. And they are the easiest for others to observe and point out to us.

If your friend says that you seem angry it is not hard to have a different opinion. But if they said that you said “I hate everybody” or “I love everybody” that is difficult to challenge. We are able to see our growth by the words that we use. If you want your life to change then simply change your words.

It is difficult to directly change your thoughts because thoughts are so fleeting. I am sure you have noticed how your thoughts roam from topic to topic. It is very hard to stop them long enough to see what is going on.

The same is true for your emotions. They have a tendency to just jump up and surprise us. By the time we recognize that we are in a strong emotional state, it probably is to late to change it.

Observing words is not the same. You can retract words after you have spoken them. To either reorder the words or change the words altogether. Instead of saying “You make me mad” you could say “What you are doing makes me mad”. These two sentences are very different.

You may wonder how this helps with changing the filters that block our true nature from coming through. Negative emotions are our main filters. Emotions such as fear, hate, jealousy, anger etc… These negative emotions are best replaced with positive emotions such as gratitude, love, patience, kindness etc…

We can replace the negative with the positive by watching our words and what we say. The more positive and uplifting our words become, the more positive and uplifting will our thoughts and emotions become.

The positive will grow as the negative gets cleared away which lets our true nature shine through.

The goal of ancient science was to learn the technique for turning low end metals into gold.

Would that not be wonderful? Well it is possible!

You can change lower vibrations into higher ones.

This miracle happens every time that you change a negative emotion into a postive one. You can change hate into acceptance. You can change anger into compassion.

More spiritual feeling come about when negative emotions are transformed.

This transformation of negative thoughts to positive feelings is the basis for spiritual growth.
