An Excerpt
- OVERVIEW
The Almighty has created a miraculous human body. It is a humming, vibrating,
pulsating system that maintains itself with an ease that is often surprising. All we need do is properly feed it, exercise it, fuel the mind and
soul, and we are able to withstand much of what life throws our way. We can survive. Existing with good health and for a very, very long time
is another matter. We cannot optimally function if the inner energy, our life force, is not running. No pills, potions or lotions can free the ills from blocked
energy. We must keep our healthy, flowing systems going. We accomplish this by freeing ourselves. Those who have learned the art of quiet stillness,
meditation or prayer can
significantly influence their daily energy stream. Releasing troubles to the Divine helps people cope with emotional
pain and maintain wellness. Every living soul’s energy flows naturally
in a clockwise direction. Healthy energy surges from the Almighty above the body, down through the eight energy centers to earth,
where we are grounded. The
mind, body and soul remain balanced if we seek the positive side of life and the good lesson in each situation. Alas, most of
us need reminding. Even the highest living soul has to work on staying healthy.
The best way to keep the energy centers surging is to become silent and peaceful.
In so doing we hand over
to the Divine our worries and negatives of the day. God’s energy is blocked when we are not in harmony and
unable to deal with today’s or yesterday’s events. We place barriers and build
walls to protect ourselves. By building protection against pains, we cause imbalance (dis-ease) in mind, body and soul. Rather than being safe from
the emotional upheaval, we block the very energy that releases pain. Within these pages is the story of my life, work and continual quest to begin
the healing process in those who seek assistance. Spiritual energy healing involves unblocking the energy centers called chakras. My work changes
people. Releasing energy flow causes a person to relieve buried hurts. It is surprising
what can be let go and forgiven when the healing process is begun.
HOLY HOSTAGE is the story of my personal healing journey, but also yours.
Spiritual healing has been
frequently misunderstood. Healing is not just for a
few but for all souls. It is my humble desire that you come away
from this biography filled with greater compassion and useful tools for healing yourself and
those around you.

The word ‘God’ used in this
book is my definition of The
Universal, Loving, Creative Energy Force. With respect to the reader, the use of God does not conflict with any man
or woman’s religious and spiritual beliefs, it encompasses ALL.
