“If you had the cure for cancer, wouldn’t you make sure everyone who had cancer knew about it?”
This is a common question that is posed by business and sales coaches, encouraging entrepreneurs and coaches to shed the shame and fear of marketing themselves and their products.
I hate this question.
It’s such an extreme example to make a point.
Yes, a lot of coaches (myself included) have skills and programs that could change the lives of many people.
But we’re not out here curing cancer.
I am here to help people, yes. I am here to teach people, yes.
But am I saving lives?
I have had clients tell me I have helped them to change their lives, and this is what I am most proud of.
I teach people how to help themselves. Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for life.
On a personal level, it becomes a wobbly interlude to “claim my results” when I am here to empower people to help themselves.
When someone helps themself, that is not my result, it is theirs.
Claiming the title of “healer” feels like wearing a sash that I didn’t win. In massage school my teachers taught me humility and to understand that I am not the one doing the healing, I am merely creating space for the body to heal itself.
In the time since I have left massage school, I have learned how to translate that skill beyond the scope of physical touch on the massage table.
The idea that I am not the one doing the healing, that I am merely the one helping to facilitate the creation of space within the body - so that the body can heal itself, becomes even stronger and more tangible - ironically, using modalities that are not at all tangible.
I have been accused of sharing "a lot of pseudoscience" - that it hasn't been proven in a lab multiple times with double blind yada yada *cue the eyeroll* and therefore must be a "bunch of hooey"
Here's the thing: you can prove anything in a lab, right or wrong, with confirmation bias.
So I personally don't need "scientific proof" that energy healing works, when I have seen firsthand as well as have read 100's of stories about people's experiences, to know that this "pseudoscience" is true and real.
And interestingly enough, science is starting to prove more and more every day that what has been thought of as "pseudo" is actually real and true.
So no, I am not curing cancer, I am not saving lives. I am creating space for the body to heal from within by teaching you how to clear and release trapped energies and emotions that create dissonance on the energetic plane of the body that creates chronic pain and disease.
As Dr Bradley Nelson, founder of the Emotion Code states, it's better to NOT know what we are preventing, than to reverse a debilitating disease.
