Physical problems grab our attention. We tend to them as soon as possible. But what about our mental health? Trauma, grief, and other inner wounds leave us disturbed and often shattered. If left unchecked for a long time, they go on to hurt us more. While we might seek help from outside, it is not always possible to get our way around it. Medicine and nutrition have limited power. However, our minds can do wonders!
What is self-healing?
Self-healing is the process of recovery from ill-health motivated by and directed by the patient, guided by instinct. It can cure both emotional and physical health issues. Its value lies in its ability to be tailored to the unique experience and requirements of the individual. And it takes both the time and dedicated efforts for one to indulge in self-healing and see desirable results.
Self-healing in times of Covid-19
The global pandemic had cast a grave impact on us. Be it physically or psychologically, the coronavirus didn’t leave anyone. While we were locked within the confines of our homes, we also got a chance to look inward. This time alone led us into believing that paying attention to our health is imperative for our overall well-being. Self-healing therapy can help us in reducing anxiety, improving emotional resilience, and boosting our immune system.

Is self-healing real?
While the doctors, nutritionists, medicines, health supplements can create an environment conducive to healing, it’s your body that does the magic. Self-healing involves harnessing the limitless potential of your mind to heal yourself. It begins the very moment we believe we can heal. If you decide to take charge of your problems and tend to them, you are likely to achieve results sooner. Utilise your powerful mind, turn it into an asset, connect with your inner self to see the abundance flowing into your life.
Types of self-healing
Self-healing can be achieved through deliberately applied psychological mechanisms. These approaches may gradually improve the psychological and physical conditions of a person. There are several techniques of self-healing in practice that can help us in achieving long-lasting happiness. Some of them are:
Meditation
Meditation helps in releasing stress from the mind and body. When we meditate, the mind automatically becomes calm and relaxed. And when the mind is quiet, the emotions are balanced. The effect shows on the body. You feel more energetic and happy. Experts suggest that consistent practice of meditation over time can even help cure certain prolonged health conditions.
Angel Therapy
Angel Therapy is a spiritual healing method that involves working with your guardian angels and archangels. Either you can connect with angels on your own or take the help of a practitioner who can channel your angels and passed loved ones. It is believed that these angels can give clear guidance in many areas of life, including finances, relationships, and health.
Theta Healing
This technique of self-healing relies on natural intuition to connect with the Creator. It involves training your mind, body and spirit that allows you to clear limiting beliefs and live life with positive thoughts.
Reiki
Reiki channels universal energy and helps in the removal of energy blocks in one’s body to achieve healing. Improving the flow of energy around the body can enable relaxation, relieve pain, and reduce other symptoms of illness.
Chakra Healing Meditation
Chakras are the points of energy in your body. A human body has seven such points. Chakra Meditation using black obsidian helps you actively participate with your whole body, exploring its layers on a healing level and witnessing the effects of thoughts and feelings. It is proven to make one feel at peace and content.
Inner Child Healing
Inner child healing is a way to address our needs that haven’t been met as children and heal the attachment wounds we’ve developed over time. It essentially involves creating a space where your subconscious is allowed to take the lead, and you are directed inward. It leads us to peel back our everyday coping mechanisms and fully accept our subconscious into consciousness.
Some other self-healing activities include positive visualization, listening to soothing music, eating healthy foods, gardening, and gratitude journaling. You can do them daily to feel calm and clear in the head.
We all come across multiple challenges in our lives. The better part is we have the reserves of power right within us. We have the capabilities to get over most of the issues. We just have to set the right intention. We hope your journey of self-healing leads you to light.
