Healing Arts

Distant energy healing is performed using intent and focus. When applied through Chios, it uses the same sweeping or hovering hand movements, around and above the patient’s body as would be done in person. The basic premise is that energy of any kind is not limited by time or space, so that positive rays can be transmitted by the trained and skilled practitioner to a person in a different location. This sending or directing of Universal Life Energy is variously known as healing from a distance.The ultimate goal of Chios is to holistically heal, harmonize and bring balance to the trinity of mind, body and spirit. Healers achieve this through learning how to channel rays. Master healers work on the person’s overall wellness and specific issues using the “touch of light”.Chios is a “breakthrough” new technique that seeks to discover and resolve the true, root defects of a patient’s aura and chakras. It employs spiritual healing in an extraordinarily pro-active manner. This holistic method was devised by Steve Barret and is a product of twenty years of research and development, rigorous testing and evaluation, and painstaking refinements.The word “Chios” derives from the language of the ancient Bactrian civilization. It’s closest English translation is “life force”, although it also implies the upwards growth, physical and spiritual generated by the power welling in all living things. Chios is seen by many as the premier higher dimensional art of the 21st Century.America, Canada, Australia, Holland, Ireland, Greece, Norway, Singapore and the United Kingdom all have Chios Master teachers. Chios uses standardized learning methods available to all. It involves a copyrighted and trademarked system of sixty-two procedures.Energy healing sessions are a profound method of treating problems with the aura and chakras. It is a modern addition to the alternative medicine and holistic umbrella categories. Chios seeks to balance chakras and to fortify their power reserves. The basis of Chios is the belief that afflictions with the spirit, mind and body stem from a wider realm of consciousness, so that empathic perception and thought communication are key elements to their resolution.Distant Chios treatments help the recipient to set themselves free from the limitations of an afflicted mind, spirit or body. They enhance the patient’s overall quality of life, and encourage spiritual development. The healer’s awareness is also expanded, allowing them to utilize color and light to catalyze healing of the patient’s chakra and aura system. These unique, powerful and effective power field therapies draw on universal power, conducted through the practitioner’s hands.Chios master healers can heal mind, body and spirit with distant energy healing sessions. These sessions work via the love and intent of the healer being absorbed by the patient through the non-invasive placement of hands near the body’s chakra points. Healers shape the light and work with it to correct energy flow in accordance with the reception of psychic information and guidance. Love and light are two of the main elements to working with this form of spiritual power. There is no restriction on who can do it, as long as the proper training is given, the limits to heal are endless.

Lewis Carroll, author of Alice in Wonderland, once called stories “love gifts.” The power of stories combined by love provides the foundation for healing on many different levels. There are many in today’s societies (worldwide) who have suffered many traumas and therefore need to hear the stories told with loving care. The storyteller, with every telling of healing stories, gives a precious gift. The stories told by the storyteller provide a means for people to strengthen themselves and begin to heal.Sadly, there are many today that would dismiss storytelling as a mere entertainment. The argument that the stories can not possibly be true and that they are a waste of time in today’s world of science and technology is commonly cited. Can the stark, clinical environment be a true place of healing? Is there place in the modern world for faery tales, legends and other stories?Storytelling is almost the oldest art in the world, the first conscious form of literary communication. In many cultures it still survives, and it is not an uncommon thing to see a crowd held by the simple telling of a story. There are signs of a growing interest in this ancient art, and we may yet live to see the renaissance of the storyteller and the troubadour. One of the surest signs of a belief in the educational and healing powers of stories and storytelling is its introduction into the therapy methods available to doctors, educators and clergy. It is just at the time when the imagination is most keen, the mind being unhampered by the collection of facts, that stories appeal most vividly and are retained for all time.Long before pen was set to paper, fairy tales, legends and stories existed as a means to transfer knowledge from one generation to another. Spreading knowledge through stories was both entertaining and educational. Religious leaders throughout time have used many metaphors and parables to teach valuable lessons of morals and ethics. Some 20th century doctors believed that such stories contained symbolic messages which spoke to the unconscious of the listener. Storytelling creates a bridge between teller and listener across which authentic communication can take place. And it is within this intimacy that the ‘healing’ or ‘therapeutic’ aspects of a story lie. Since the beginning of time, stories have helped us discover the meaning in our experiences, offered possible explanations for what we struggle to understand. Stories invite our imaginations and hearts to stretch over the void to reach out to one another.Stories and storytelling are appropriate for use at any stage of the healing process. Certain processes are common throughout all therapies; notably diagnosis, establishing empathic rapport, and carrying out a treatment plan. The use of stories and storytelling appear to be particularly effective because they are non-threatening, engaging to both the conscious and unconscious, foster independence, bypass natural resistance to change, model flexibility, make the presented ideas more memorable, and mobilize the problem-solving and healing resources of the unconscious (Dr. Milton Erickson, 1976). Stories and storytelling speak to the normal and healthy core of the individual and can be an instrument of long-lasting and permanent changes.Storytelling is a sharing experience. When a storyteller shares a story, they show a willingness to be vulnerable, to share ideas and feelings. That kind of sensitivity invites people to listen with open minds and hearts. Enjoying a story together creates a common experience. Storytelling, properly done creates a relaxed, restful feeling. It establishes an environment for the listener to feel comfortable and begin the healing process.The most powerful and effective way of presenting stories is to tell from the heart and to engage the listener. In this way the stories and the storytelling become an integral part of the healing process.
