I wish I knew how to reply to you directly,...Jody, <br />I wish I knew how to reply to you directly, but I dont know your email! If you'd like to e-mail me directly please do! I can be reached at melissabamfo@yahoo.com. As far as who I learned from and the link between Energy work and the LDS gospel, I have a lot of feelings and theories on that. I learned Energy work from Carolyn Cooper who is a great source. Feel free to check out her website at www.calycohealing.com. If you have further questions, please send them directly to my email. <br /><br />Hope to hear from you soon!<br /><br />MelissaMelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072655819062904468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-216338806233051990.post-70054262575970870312010-09-13T14:46:40.172-06:002010-09-13T14:46:40.172-06:00Melissa,

From my work, I'm actually in the process of writing a book to bridge that gap between energy work and the LDS faith....it is so much the same. A few tweeks in terminology and we have a clearer understanding of the scriptures and ourselves. <br />Once we really know who we are, we no longer see things from a boxed in view. Nothing in this "natural" world will keep us from experiencing amazing spiritual experiences unless we choose to avoid them.

It's just that I've been very wrong about things before, and now I'm wary of everything, good and bad! <br /><br />I like the goal of having a facilitator in every family. The herbal school I like has the same goal for an herbalist in every family. I like not having to rely on doctors for everything.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16981415125894714419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-216338806233051990.post-89411690231436802422010-05-15T07:20:18.729-06:002010-05-15T07:20:18.729-06:00Katie,
I can understand where you're coming f...Katie, <br />I can understand where you're coming from. When I first heard about energy work I was very worried about getting involved in something that would stray from gospel principles. I was concerned that it would cause me to put my faith in man and not in God. Ironically, I was very frustrated with my relationship with God at the time. As I've done energy work the thing I've realized is that it's allowed me to stop self sabotaging behaviors that have kept me from becoming who I want to be. I've realized in so many ways that God is waiting and ready to carry my burdens and to change my life, but I have been unable to hand it over to him and accept his help in many ways. I have been bound by feeling like I have to do x y and z in order to receive certain blessings. This has been my mentality most of my life and I'm realizing that as I let those things go I am better able to allow the Lord to work in my life. The scriptures tell all the time to ask and we will receive and to knock and things will be opened to us, but if we're not able to receive the things he has to give us, how can we progress? Energy work helps remove the things keeping us from receiving all the blessings and goodness God has for us. It’s like the car scenario. If you’re in a car and you’re trying to get out, someone has to unlock the door before you can get out. Energy work is what unlocks the doors and allows you to move forward. <br /><br />The woman who I am learning from teaches Energy work from an LDS gospel perspective. As energy workers we are not healers (God is the only true healer) we are facilitators and her goal is to have a facilitator in every family. <br /><br />After my class next week I will be a certified practitioner. Because I'm looking for people to get practice with I will be offering some great introductory rates. You've been through a lot-- more than me. Energy work can be done over the phone from anywhere. If you're interested in doing it I would love to work with you Katie.<br /><br />I hope this helped clear some things up. If you have further questions please ask!! I’m loving this.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072655819062904468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-216338806233051990.post-80040982001057730132010-05-15T05:54:31.484-06:002010-05-15T05:54:31.484-06:00This is so awesome that you are doing this! I fee...This is so awesome that you are doing this! I feel almost exactly like what you describe you felt. I've wanted to do energy work for literally years but have always been fearful of healing and moving forward. Not fearful of the work itself, but fearful of healing. How weird is that?! That probably just means I need to do it :-) <br /><br />After next week, do you think you'll be able to help people as well as an experienced practitioner, or is this something that takes time to learn? <br /><br />I know there are people out there who say that energy work derives its power from Satan, and to be honest, that does concern me a little bit. They say that if you've never studied the occult, you would never know. (These are people who have been involved with the occult and then converted to Christianity.) I've always thought their argument is ridiculous and decided that I see none of 'Satan' in the fruits of energy work, but then I decided I probably shouldn't dismiss the idea entirely. Have you come across that idea at all?Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16981415125894714419noreply@blogger.com
