the wart was horrifically infected for a good year afterward. After many tests and different treatments it dried up once again, but now into a wart six times the original size. I didn't want to go back to the doctor. From then on, every night before I went to bed, I would imagine my "nurse angels" that would fly in with their magic and spend time healing my foot. I imagined it every day for a couple of months until the wart was gone. As in GONE. I have a flat shiny scar where it used to be. My parents were gob-smacked; they had seen that nothing would get rid of this. When I told them what I had done, they were a little worried for my state of mind, but they're used to that with me :-) Was this coincidence, or are we truly able to heal ourselves?

Quado, do you have an answer to this question?

Yes, of course, of course.

Coincidence? Clearly you know that it was not coincidence. The wonder here is that the training from your society is so strong that you should even ask this question.

Miracles happen every day. And once in a while is one as obvious and clear as this, enough to make people ask, could it really be true?

Not only can you heal yourself, you are the only one who can. Yes, doctors help and healers help, and there is much help out there or you, but all they do is help you to heal yourself. All healing is done by your own energetic body working on the physical body.

Now, this is an important distinction. What you were doing when you called in your special angels was asking your energetic body to get to work and heal itself. And visualization is a wonderful way to accomplish this. As with all things, you are using metaphor to call in those forces which you cannot understand in a different way. And as always, metaphor is very powerful and quite adequate to the job.

There is great healing energy in the world. You may call it to you to increase your own energetic force and to heal yourself. You may also go to people who have learned this skill and can help transfer more energy to your body, if your own energy field is weak and needs bolstering. For this is what most often happens. Your own energy gets depleted and you no longer are able to summon sufficient energy to heal yourself. And so, in these cases, you need to call it in as you did with your nursing angels or you can ask someone else to call in additional energy to help you, if you are unable to do it yourself.

But in either case, you are in fact healing yourself in the end. For you are taking the energy and turning it to good use. You are healing yourself.

And some people do this much more readily than others. Some people have this ability, as the asker of this question clearly does. She should also experiment with healing others, with pulling in energy and sending it to other people and see if she can be of some help. And she should definitely just bring in healing energy every day for herself and have it circulate in her body, ferreting out little problems before they gain hold, clearing her whole body in an energy cleansing.

Please do believe in yourself and your own power. You have the power to learn to control that busy mind of yours, enough to give yourself a little peace. You have the power to teach it to turn from the negative to the positive, if you will but persist and not give up. You have the power to gain control over your own emotions, to clear away the negative emotions through love and forgiveness and to bring in the positive emotions of love, peace and joy. You have this power.

And then, with your mind quieter, and your emotions calmer, you have the power to heal yourself. To pull down all the energy in the universe in whatever way you care to. Ask nursing and healing angels to help you. Ask spirit guides to come to your aid. Ask for the raw energy of the universe to come down in a cyclone and clear out your negative energies and charge the positive. Picture your own body beginning to glow with the renewed charge of energy. Use any and all means you prefer to energize yourself and heal yourself.

Yes, you have this power.

And if you are not ill now, I would encourage you to keep yourself energized and clear in order to prevent illness.

If you are already very ill, then you must of course ask for help, both from the medical establishment and from energy healers as appropriate. When you reach certain stages of illness, your own energy is so depleted that you must seek others to give you a clearer channel. (ET'S & St.Germaine)? And if conventional medicine is appropriate for you, and it may well be, it can often be good to augment these medical treatments with energy treatments, so that you keep yourself going and get through the pain and discomfort more easily, more peacefully.

So, congratulations. You have discovered what all should know and what our society should be teaching but is not: you are ultimately responsible for healing yourself and in the end, you are the only one who can do it. Accept that responsibility. Ask for help when required, but also accept that even with help, it is your responsibility. Work with your doctors and healers as a team. Do your part. Add positive energy and visualizations to whatever treatment you are receiving.

Learn for yourself the power that is within you. And then, when the miracle does occur, believe it. Trust it. Trust your own power.
