I first came across Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine Therapies through my own illness – a case of recurring pneumonia nearly 17 years ago and only 2 years after the birth of my son. I was a well known and successful Naturopath and Acupuncturist who walked my talk, but nothing would budge the condition for longer than a couple of weeks.
Despite doing everything the medical profession offered and applying the best available of alternative medicine, my weight had dropped from 54 to 47kgs. I was at my wits end, feeling desperate and at a loss to know where to turn.
Through a timely meeting with a friend who shared with me her cousin’s recent visit to Serge Benhayon, I found myself instantly drawn to seek an appointment. That day, December 16th 2001, marked a change in my life I could never have predicted.
What struck me immediately was Serge’s unassuming professionalism. In a tiny and simply furnished room in Altsonville, northern New South Wales, I felt instantly met, seen in a way l’d not been seen before and before long I felt profoundly understood.
The simplicity of his ‘tools of the trade’ you might say were remarkable to me as a practitioner of some 15 years myself. We simply talked, for no more than 30 minutes initially but in that time we seemed to have encompassed my life in such a way that my situation made complete sense.
He helped me see the nature of deeper unresolved feelings I was often aware of but had never quite been able to understand their origins, deep feelings of sadness seemingly unrelated to my situation and circumstance.
As I listened to what was being said about the origins and nature of my condition, I registered that while my mind could say ‘yes that makes sense’, it was within my body that I was registering the truth of what I’d heard. This was a new and subtle experience but distinct enough to recall 17 years on.
For the first time I knew I understood the relationship of these feelings to the condition I was suffering.
The discussion was followed by hands-on-healing (Sacred Esoteric Healing) where I felt (energetic) shifts occurring within my lungs and body that I still remember as if it were yesterday.
It was unlike anything I had experienced before: deeply stilling and somehow reassuring – I felt connected to myself in a way that was on the one hand so familiar, I felt ‘home’ and yet I didn’t ever recall feeling that way before.
At one point I found myself sobbing uncontrollably but following it came a sense of release l’d sought for years, in fact every time I’d touched in on feelings of deep sadness that arose intermittently. The sense of release was quite distinct from the relief l was more familiar with, as on previous occasions I’d find myself crying from a depth that I knew was out of proportion to the situation at hand. The crying then never released the feelings, only relieved them… until the next time.
What followed the release was even more remarkable however, I was left with a profound sense of warmth radiating from my lungs and heart, a feeling of love that imbued my whole body and a sense that I was distinctly at home. A tension I realised I had lived with as long as I could remember was relieved in a way I can only liken to having the deepest itch scratched for the first time. And yet it was distinctly familiar too, I felt completely and utterly myself.
Unsurprisingly to me, the experience delivered an immediate and obvious flow-on effect with regards my health: the pneumonia resolved within days and my weight restored within a few weeks of that. But more than this, it began a period of healing that was all encompassing and transformative involving every aspect of my life.
It is easy to throw the word healing around but my experience on that day was nothing short of miraculous and changed not only the trajectory of my life in every way, but forever changed my understanding of what healing actually entails.
The change was not only personal but in a short time flowed very obviously into my professional life too.
I had come to understand that healing was something that goes much deeper than l had ever learnt through my own study and that my own healing was pivotal to what I was able to offer clients in their respective healing.
Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality. It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.
l’d never put these things together, understanding ‘walk your talk’ as meaning simply that I ate well, took vitamins, exercised and went to bed at a decent time.
To understand and see the correlation between healing at this level and the flow on affect to the potential for clients to initiate healing for themselves, was both profound, fascinating and asked a level of responsibility l’d not understood before.
Life today bears no resemblance to life back then, with enormous healing evident in every aspect of my life. I jokingly refer to the distinction of the way life felt before that appointment as being of ‘my previous life’.
The period of healing instigated that day opened a new dimension for me and to life that I can liken to experiencing life in color suddenly after only ever experiencing it in black and white.
I have often reflected on the fact that without the severity of the condition I suffered and my inability to get relief from anything (and everything) else I knew, I doubt I would have been open to booking an appointment that day, let alone to what was offered by way of healing through Serge Benhayon from that point on.
It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.
This l’ve observed through my own practice ever since and more times than l’d care to count… it is human nature or so it would seem, to live our lives as mere physical beings without awareness of the greater dimensions of who we are, until life reminds us through the marker of our bodies and through healing that there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…

Jennifer being “instantly met” is what I have felt and feel every time I meet Serge Benhayon. It’s like he understands where we are at, with no judgement and no investment towards us. Supporting us to heal, and that healing is deeper than ever felt with the modalities I searched for many years to help me feel wholesome again.
And I LOVE the healing Universal Medicine has to offer. It’s non imposing and you govern how much healing you want to go to – simple.
The feeling I get from this is that healing is not about removing symptoms or making us feel/be better, but it is about being whole again.
Fumiyo, what I learnt since receiving esoteric healing therapies, is not only is it not about removing or relieving the symptoms, it is about YOU playing your part too. You have the ultimate responsibility the practitioners are to facilitate and support you – and I love that accountability.
“there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…” far more than we care to admit or feel comfortable seeing, but it is time to open our eyes and be blind no longer.
Thank you Jenny, what comes through is the deep appreciation for this experience with Serge, and at a time where the depths of what was offered could be felt very profoundly. Your decency, care and humility as a student and practitioner was also very obvious, as was your openness to keep learning.
Whilst it is so important to take care of the symptoms of our ills sometimes we are missing the deeper nature of things and the healing that is on offer.
This is an amazing line: “For the first time I knew I understood the relationship of these feelings to the condition I was suffering.” As it shows the power of the simplicity that Serge Benhayon works in. No fancy anything, no big words, messages or ideals. Just a simple opportunity to place different parts of your life together and to see the whole that you are, or have come to be. Beautiful.
“Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality. It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing” – this really changes everything. If healing was not about the accumulated specialised knowledge and skills, any of us have a potential to offer healing to another through our daily interactions and meetings.
I agree Fumiyo because love and truth offers us the greatest healing and there are so many practitioners of so many different modalities that lack both and yet there are so many people that are not skilled in any healing modality per se that are walking around simply offering healing as part of their natural living way.
How extremely beautiful it is to read about such a transformational experience… It sounds so simple and yet, when anyone meets a person who has taken full responsibility for their life, and who lives in a way that reflects that responsibility… Miracles are always around the corner.
I can remember my first experience of the healing modalities of Unversal Medicine and I hadn’t felt like that after any treatment before. That deeper connection within and feeling so safe, held and cared for meant I naturally let go and could feel what I had been holding in my body release and clear. It was when I got off the table and started to move around when I could feel how much lighter and at ease I was in my body with an emanation within that was very powerful.
I have so often got up from a healing session to find that my body has completely reconfigured and that my posture and walk has changed. Understanding that letting go rather than forcing my body to do things in the name of certain exercise, has a much more healing and profound effect on the body, its muscles and physiology.
It’s a great point that the depths of healing a practitioner has reached is a key part of their service to others. We tend to think we receive a qualification and we do work, not what level are we at in our own healing and what does that bring to others? And such self healing and return to our soul is not confined to a healing clinic, it’s really applicable to all areas of life and all occupations because healing is on offer to everyone we interact with when we live connected to our soul.
I so love your story Jennifer, I know a number of people including my wife that no longer suffer from asthma due to healing sessions with Serge and finding out the root cause of their ailments.
This is a beautiful account of healing on an energetic and physical level that is felt in the body and has been experienced by so many who have chosen healing sessions with Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
We know love so well, we know what it is to walk our life with integrity, yet we often wait until something really horrible happens for us to snap out of our ill behaviours. Isn’t this simply ignorant to what we know and what we feel?
It doesn’t matter what we do, it is our livingness that heals, the way in which we live our life in relationship to ourselves.
Indeed Caroline. I know this from my own experience, and try as I might to ignore and resist it, there is nothing else that heals us more deeply than the way we choose to live in connection to ourselves.
The previous life is one that when your in it and have accepted it as your normal you never see it being not ok. The moment we are shown or connect to the fact that we are so much more than this, so much we can’t even start to comprehend. I to have found the Universal Medicine modalities out of this world and life changing. Where true deep healing takes place if we surrender to it. Serge Benhayon is the real deal and walks his talk and he is the most down to earth, loving and genuine man you ever meet with so much wisdom to share with us all.
Realising that our illnesses are actually a product of our ill choices, we have a choice to either continue to live the way we do, or to start taking responsibility and change our choices.
And what a blessing that is, truly what a blessing.
Whatever we go through we ultimately have a choice to see our own responsibility for what played out. It’s this honesty that opens the door to truly walking forward and letting go.
This sort of healing is needed for all of humanity, to really understand what true healing is so we can move out of this ever increasing downward spiral out of control way our health is heading.
We are really missing the being part in our healing, the being meaning the human being, the aspect of ourselves that is not physical, that is deeply sensitive, that has trauma and hurts, that holds back its beauty and fullness, etc, and generally understanding how all aspects of our being impacts on our body.
It is very interesting to read and feel the difference between the release and relief of crying you experienced Jenny. Perhaps when we reconnect with our innermost and feel what was previously avoided we can allow healing to occur.
I feel the true healing is in the reconnection to our essence, that innermost heart where we are in union with God and our soul, otherwise if we are just releasing emotions without that reconnection to our true self it may just feel like relief.
I know that for much of my life the ‘releasing of emotions’ was in fact not a releasing at all, it was simply a recycling of them, in that my perception that they were ‘going away from me’ was not true, they actually never left me, as I breathed them out so too did I breathe them straight back in again.
I am a practitioner working with people who come with different ailments and issues with their body….what I have realised is that if I have not healed, worked on myself, I limit what I can share and reflect to them: “Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality. It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.” It brings a true responsibility to the practitioner and an empowerment in the client to work in this way – I love it.

Every exchange in life is an energetic exchange in which we have the opportunity to harm or heal according to the quality of being that we are connected to.
The power and miracle of true healing inspires me every time I encounter it, either for myself or when I hear the stories of others, and whilst for many true healing isn’t a reality yet, the fact that a few are accessing it now does mean that in the future it will have become normal for us all.
I love this blog. A returning to love and your true self. I never tire of reading stories like these.
I dabbled and experimented with a few different spiritual techniques and what was obviously different when I experienced the healing techniques presented by Serge Benhayon was that I could feel how disconnected I had been from my Soul. Each session releases and arrests the energy that is not of my Soul. In this process I feel clearing, body re-aligning and configuring to be All who I am. When I walk after the sessions I can feel how my body has changed and it is instantly reflected in my walk.
“…a feeling of love that imbued my whole body and a sense that I was distinctly at home.” This is how we feel when we receive esoteric healing.
‘What struck me immediately was Serge’s unassuming professionalism.’ This impressed me too and also the way he ‘held the space’. I had been with countless healers, gurus teachers etc before and had also had experience of facilitating and teaching groups myself. When I was young I had been in a weekend workshop and in the days following had become quite disturbed emotionally and mentally, and later in my early thirties I came away from an intense training very unstable. I had learned that the safety of the participants was paramount and I could feel that Serge Benhayon was well aware of these unsettling and potentially harmful possibilities and held his position of what I now call energetic integrity more responsibly than anyone I had ever met.
What I have come to appreciate is that unless we understand that we carry around with us unresolved hurts in our bodies, we will not truly heal. At best we can apply a Band-Aid but it will not solve the issue, it may look as though it has but the hurt is still festering away.
There are many methods and techniques out there to support some sort of ‘improving’ one’s health or well-being but only some can claim to truly heal. The element of healing is not in the technique as such but in the energetic quality and consciousness behind it; thus healing is very simple once it is understood as an energetic quality first.
The precision in which you describe your process during your first session with Serge Benhayon is revealing some profound truths, so in ‘The sense of release was quite distinct from the relief l was more familiar with…’. Only too often we confuse relief for a healing or solution, the simple outburst of an emotion and its short-term relief, but rarely do we experience an energetic release that liberates us from something we have held onto for sometimes quite a while as we don´t know how to address and let go of it.
‘Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality. It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.’ and this brings a much greater level of responsibility with healing, for ourselves and in supporting another to heal themselves.
Yes, it does Ruth and I have found that far from rejecting this truth I have started to embrace it because in this awareness life tangibly becomes about us all rather than myself as an individual – I find this liberating – how freeing it feels to begin to even contemplate letting go of those constraints that keep me separate from the all we are and are all a naturally a part of.
We can sense truth and nod our head but it is through our livingness, our movements, that we offer inspiration and make a difference in the world.
I know that sense of release you talk of during Esoteric Healing, I have only experienced this with these modalities and too have found it to be deeply healing fully letting go of what needs to be let go of, resulting in several health conditions completely resolving and turning round how I am in life.
I love your analogy of your experience of life changing from black and white to colour. We don’t know what we do not know. We would have no idea what we are missing, we would not even consider the possibility that what we have might be far less and reduced from the potential of what is. Being introduced to a concept of colour from a place of only knowing black and white – that would be a life apart.
There is something amazing that happens when a body hears the truth, and in my experience it is amazing like no other amazing that I know, which I can only really describe as a deep re-ignition of an ancient knowing.
There is no greater offering from a healing session or a health practitioner to be understood and reconnected with one’s own inner wisdom and knowing of the truth of who we are in essence.
What Serge Benhayon presents is nothing complicated, everything is so simple and hugely powerful. I am starting to understand simple is powerful and not ‘little’ or to be dismissed in favour of complication which is often more draining and more hassle.
I can relate to much of what you have shared here. That sense of deep letting go after emotions have been cleared out of the way, and with a clarity in my body and mind after an esoteric healing session that I’d not previously experienced.
The word ‘healing’ is bandied around from New Age modalities to conventional medicine cures, but when you have a true healing with an Esoteric Practitioner such has been described here, you know you have had a life-altering shift within the body.
There is something in these words – to feel profoundly understood – that really stands out to me. As I can see how this can be so in any situation, as it does not need to be exclusive to the treatment room or even to Serge Benhayon, because we can all profoundly understand each other.
I have heard that Serge Benhayon is the healers healer which to me says volumes about the deep integrity this man holds everyone in.
What a wonderful sharing of what healing is. I’m impressed with knowing it is the depth of healing we are willing to bring to ourselves that is what others feel when they connect with us. I have found this to be so true. It’s an inspiration to feel this. No matter how well intentioned I or someone maybe, without this depth of knowing, we cannot lead the way for another to trust and be inspired. I’m only coming to understand that supporting another doesn’t mean pushing them to get up the hill from behind! But walking ahead showing what is possible.
Jenny i can very much relate to this altered sense of release; crying during low moments would often feel heavy and emotionally foggy, yet after Universal Medicine healing sessions it was as if the sadness would come up involuntarily to be released, an unfamiliar sense of feeling detached to what was there to be released and in turn i would be left feeling lighter & clearer. This led to a steady & life changing understanding that the sadness i was feeling was not actually me but simply energy that i had taken on and was holding in my body.
There’s always sadness when we connect to that which we come from, and have strayed so far away from.
Yes great distinction Lucinda… it is very different.
In this fast-paced world of ours where the lives of many are full to the brim with demands, expectations and more wants than needs, when an illness slows us down or maybe even stops us in our tracks, all we want at that moment in time is the quick fix; to be cured as soon as possible. And once fixed we return to the crazy, stress-filled way we had been living; so, nothing changes. To truly heal what our body is asking for is only a choice away, a choice to stop and listen to the wise messages it is giving us and then to respond in nothing less than the most self-loving way.
I also first was referred to Serge Benhayon at a time when I had “deep feelings of sadness seemingly unrelated to my situation and circumstance”. Although my physiotherapist was supporting the healing of my sacrum and lower back, she referred me to deal with the underlying energy, which was this deep sadness and grief. Without this foundational part of the puzzle, my physical body may have improved but the energy would have still been buried in my body.
I love the inspiration here to never dismiss the wisdom and support of our bodies, always calling us to greater awareness.
It is beautiful to read your experiences and deeply inspiring too.
When Serge Benhayon speaks, no word is wasted, he can read us in every moment and what he says or writes is always relevant to what we need to know at the time. Sometimes he repeats things in different ways until we get it, but there is never any imposition, we receive the words and it is our choice always what we do with them.
I remember seeking potions, natural remedies to combat something my body was processing. Until I experienced the Esoteric Healing I hadn’t felt how deeply buried my hurts and emotions were and when supported to let go of these and healing them from the root cause I realised how this is the true way to heal ourselves.
Energetic healing is real, it can be felt, and it has real consequences that support the physical body immensely. Not an ounce of fluff or airy fairy in Esoteric Healing.
The detail that you describe the healing felt in your body is so palpable, it’s like I was with you as it was happening. It is quite incredible to feel this through your words, which then makes me realise the power of truth when it is expressed.
Time and again I read of miracles occurring for people who attend Esoteric Healing modalities. Universal Medicine has given us the answers we all seek to our health conditions and it should be front page news. The ‘problem’ or the reason why it’s not front-page news is that it requires us to be responsible, something humanity has avoided for a long time. Things may need to get a lot worse in the world before we do accept responsibility for our health.
I can remember my first session with Serge, and how my body went from complete anxiety and nervousness, to like I was talking to a dear friend that knew the real me without all the other stuff I thought was wrong with me. My head was trying to make up stories while my whole body surrendered and felt warm and gentle for the first time since early childhood.
We read about the so called miracles of old and marvel at them …. surely what we have here is a true miracle, and the proof lives and breathes amongst us.
True healing and Universal Medicine says it all beautifully offering the world another way to live from the truth of all we know in connection to the quality of our soul.
‘The change was not only personal but in a short time flowed very obviously into my professional life too.’ – I have noticed that when I stop compartmentalising the different areas in my life, there is a continuous and natural flow moving forward.
True healing is surrendering to what ever the body and being needs to do to return us to our true nature.
I really connected with this today, I had an Esoteric Yoga session and I realised I was more open to being open, to what ever my body and being shared and what came up for me to look at. It is felt very simple, empowering and beholding of myself and I thought “wow this is what healing is all about…” this is life changing.
Whenever I get that moment where I clock a condition I have to the exact choices I have been making I celebrate inside. Sometimes it can take a while before I get there, but I always know that if I am genuine in finding it the answer always comes and when the condition clears there is cause for double appreciation. The physical healing often comes fast behind the realisation (the realisation is the healing)!
To be met so fully and understood by a practitioner is such an opportunity for true healing to occur. Combine this with our own willingness to engage and take responsibility for our unresolved issues and we have a very powerful medicine on offer.
In a world where emotions are championed and never seen or much less held as an ill or a problem, we are far away yet at the same time very close as the cure is always there within us, to truly healing our ills. Unless we relinquish the desire to seek emotion we will never truly heal our ills or woes.
“The change was not only personal but in a short time flowed very obviously into my professional life too.” This is one of the may beautiful attributes of what is offered by the true healing modalities of Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon, in that it goes far beyond just our physical body and has a lasting impact on everything and everyone around us. And you are a living testimony of that Jennifer.
It is Sandra, once we’ve reconnected to our essence, life becomes about so much more.
The fact that you remember the exact date says it all to me. A shift felt and remembered by the whole body.
“Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality. It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.” And this is true for everything, absolutely everything – not just within the specifics of practitioner/client. It is true for all of us; at work or home – in every interaction, what we bring to the world or to the person we are connecting with will be entirely dependent on what we have walked up to that point.
I loved this sentence ‘I had come to understand that healing was something that goes much deeper than l had ever learnt through my own study and that my own healing was pivotal to what I was able to offer clients in their respective healing.’ This means that we as clients have a responsibility to discern for ourselves to choose a practitioner who feels clear, otherwise we will continue to go round in circles.
“That day, December 16th 2001, marked a change in my life I could never have predicted.” It is remarkable that at any time or any day we can choice to make a connection and it is life changing and with reading this blog it is my time! As you say Jennifer, and may I add that to heal is always our choice then “through healing that there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…” So reading this blog it has deepened my understanding of who I am, so that I will return to “a feeling of love that imbued my whole body and a sense that I was distinctly at home.” What a True blessing this blog has given, with a great depth of wisdom, with every word opening our ability to heal to another level.
To truly healing and meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine come hand in hand with another way to live bringing a harmony and joy to our lives that can felt by our bodies and shines out to the world for all to see and know there is another way to live being who we really are.
With my first experience of a session with Serge Benhayon I did not really know happened at the time but knew and felt that something deep and profound had occurred which was hugely significant and could not be ignored. I am so appreciative I did not ignore it as it has been the beginning of my journey to reconnect to my Soul.
It’s ace that you didn’t ignore the inspiration that you felt, but your comment has paused me to consider how many other moments of inspiration have I walked away from? In my life both before and after meeting Serge Benhayon, I have had countless moments that have stopped me in my tracks, exposed stuff to me, shown me something amazing, offered a teaching or gift….and yet I haven’t necessarily followed through with it. I am still choosing, controlling, how much I am prepared to surrender to, and be obedient to, the energy that is 24/7 available.
“What followed the release was even more remarkable however, I was left with a profound sense of warmth radiating from my lungs and heart, a feeling of love that imbued my whole body …” This is a great insight of seeing a configuration of energy occupies space in the body, but once this is cleared (released), how the body reclaims itself back.
This is what stood out for me in reading this blog today – healing removes what is not of us to allow the natural emanation of all that is.
The first step in dealing with the dis-ease in our bodies is to be totally honest with ourselves so that it doesn’t develop into a disease. When we have a disease we have the opportunity to feel what it is that we haven’t dealt with and this can be in truth a blessing even though it may not feel so at the time. It also gives us the opportunity to connect deeper within ourselves and accept the responsibility we have for our choices and to choose to be more self-loving for in being so it will surely flow onto to being more self-lovingly responsible.
It’s to our detriment that we tend to only seek advice or help for our physical illnesses and ailments when it is something really bad and rarely ever visit a doctor or specialist unless this occurs. We just haven’t been taught the importance of having a close relationship with our bodies and how much this can change our lives.
Yes, agreed Julie. Developing the relationship with ourselves and our body is a really supportive way of maintaining health and wellbeing.
I have always felt the magic of the beyond that we do not intellectually understand about our bodies and working with Universal Medicine has just expanded this sense of the so much that we do not see, or know with our minds alone… an ongoing and inspiring exploration.
As a practitioner myself, if you are open to it and live your own life in a way that keeps your own body clear enough, it is very easy to read the energetic imprints that are in the body causing the physical condition, so what Serge Benhayon did here is not particularly special and we all have the potential ability to do the same (as he has presented many times himself). We all know energy and know that everything in life is energetic however we just need to stop pretending that we don’t.
This is the key here Andrew. We can all do this if we live in a way that keeps our body clear which allows us to feel what is going on for someone else. If our own body is harmonious it is easy to feel any disharmony.
Serge Benhayon and the Universal Medicine practitioners have helped me to understand many of my symptoms and to know that they do not all relate just to this lifetime. Reincarnation makes sense to me so I can understand that throughout my lifetimes I have made choices and the consequences are playing out now in this lifetime, giving me a beautiful opportunity to clear old hurts, ideals, beliefs that are limiting my return to who I truly am.
I had heard of reincarnation before and found it difficult to accept. But like so many other topics Serge Benhayon’s presentations offered a much more relatable and simple understanding that blew away many misconceptions.
Not only does the concept of reincarnation make absolute sense now, but like you I have found that this awareness lends a broader understanding to so many other areas of life. This includes a confirmation like you have mentioned that those niggling feelings that some of my issues are way older than this lifetime could in fact be true.
“To understand and see the correlation between healing at this level and the flow on affect to the potential for clients to initiate healing for themselves, was both profound, fascinating and asked a level of responsibility l’d not understood before.” This is the difference between all the many alternative modalities that are in the world today and medicine as it is at present, neither offer this as an understanding when they study to become a practitioner or a doctor…. that by healing ourselves first we initiate a true healing in another.
You touch on finding a remedy here for an illness and it is only when the remedy or perhaps the solution doesn’t work that we look deeper into what could be the cause of our illness. Our body is such a true reflection of honesty and its integrity never waivers. If something is not addressed in full and at the root cause, it leaves a pull, an ache, an unease to call us back for further investigation.
Yes, if something is not addressed, but rather ignored or buried, at some point in time it does re-surface again to be dealt with.
Something that I too have learnt or could say have been reminded of by Serge Benhayon is the power of the energetic reflection that we offer one another – a communication that comes from the entirety of our lived way and not just the words we use or knowledge we know.
So true. Many of us have felt the enormously powerful reflection from Serge Benhayon. But what if we all reflect that powerfully? Then we have to seriously, seriously consider what it is that we are reflecting.
What I love is that you are talking about what it truly means to heal, what healing is all about as before meeting Serge I didn’t really understand what healing was. I thought it was fixing oneself to keep going, managing the problems as that’s all that I saw in life. The power in actually getting the root cause of the issues and healing them so we no longer hold them in our bodies as we go about life. Quite amazing really.
It is interesting to read the transition from experiencing relief from symptoms and then an ongoing journey of healing where you are looking at the quality of your choices and the way you live.
I love your final words- disease is for me a blessing and not a curse! We as humanity obviously need these clearings to eventually connect back to the energetic awareness we all carry inside us and constantly ignore out of comfort.
Love what you share “disease is for me a blessing and not a curse! ” it really is a blessing and opportunity to let go of what is not true in our body, so we can connect to our truth.
The stigmas attached to illness and disease immediately set us up to not consider the truth of what is being offered.
It is amazing the healing that can take place, as you have shared Jennifer, when illness is addressed energetically through Esoteric Healing as well as medically. Addressing the illness from the energetic cause allows the body to fully heal as we return to the connection with ourself.
Healing is feeling very deeply who we are and allowing the truth of that to emerge once again. To connect back to what we miss.
It’s amazing to realise that the issues we face in our day to day lives are always older than we first think and that we are therefore being given the opportunity to release and heal so much more than it appears on the surface.
The opportunity to understand and choose true healing is the greatest gift we can be offered. Esoteric Medicine is the foundation of true healing.
I can very much relate to the fact that deeper unresolved feelings often manifests into illness and an over all disharmony in the physical body. Having experienced this myself, I know the enormous difference it makes when these personal hurts and feelings start to truly heal.
Your sharing of your tangible experance with the release of the emotional issue underneath the physical ill is very powerful, because we have yet to truly acknowlage the powerful influcence these carried issues cause in the body
We do need to look at the emotional issues buried deep within the body to support the healing of the physical ills.
To understand illness as a gateway to true healing is like being given the key to open the door to heaven on earth.
We register intimately the way people conduct themselves. Our sensitivity to energy is profound. It’s just for most of our life we have believed it to be a weakness – when Serge Benhayon and you show Jennifer, it is the source of our power.
It is great to know there are practitioners out there like you Jennifer, that have been through it, (the amazing healing) and come out the other side with not only the vast temporal knowledge but with the Ageless Wisdom that goes with what you have experienced so this can be shared for all that are open.
I agree kevmchardy because I can see there is an understanding this kind of practitioner brings with them that knows the depths of understanding we need to go to, they have lifted the lid and rummaged around. Whereas, if you are afraid to lift the lid yourself, there is no way you will encourage another to do the same or it might expose your fear.
A palpable sharing is conveyed through your words Jennifer, thank you, so much so, that one gets to see how unresolved tension / sadness (issues) energetically occupies space within the body and thus, makes the body less vital and dis-eased, as described from the recovery of your pneumonia.
Healing is not something to do once ill, but something to live by so that the ill does not present itself in the first place.
Agree! True health are movements that constantly confirm our essence in expressing to others.
Healing is something to live by – this is a great quote of the day – thank you, Michael.
Great point Michael it is a greater reminder that is something to live by and not turn to when we are ill>
We are always so quick at jumping to fix things without considering on what the situation is actually reflecting and what there might be for us to learn, resolve, heal and expand from. You are so right that it often takes for us to have our back well and truly against the wall before we start to make un-blinkered observations, ask true questions and seek real answers.
It is an interesting phenomenon that we wait until we are (almost) brought to our knees before we are prepared to get truly honest.
We play a game with our selves as we know we would need to start to taking responsibility , as we get truly honest.
I have observed that Serge Benhayon has offered many people the key to resolving conditions that western and alternative medicines were unable to heal. Although he never makes any claims, it is astounding what we can heal ourselves with the deeper understanding on offer from the Way of the Livingness.
There are lots of modalities that can take off the top layer of the intensity and relieve symptoms temporarily, but true healing offered by the teachings of Serge Benhayon as you describe Jennifer are literally out of this world. Nothing else matches this.
I agree healing offered by the teachings or Serge Benhayon are literally out of this world, these healings go to the root cause, to support it does not come back. Other modalities only take off a layer.
Simply letting ourselves suspend beliefs for a moment and consider the maybe of so much more than our physical existence, opens up my whole experience of life, making it richer and more inspiring and magical.
The blessing of true healing to me is a miracle every time. True healing breaks down intensely held hurts and patterns of behaviour that we have learned to exist with and have simply accepted and swallowed, simply because we do not know what else to do with them. Once healed, the joy I have felt at the extra space in my body love is afforded is something I will never tire of as I expand more fully back to the true essence I am.
I remember the 1st session/meeting I had with Serge back in 2003. I did not know exactly what he did but knew I wanted to see him. I had suffered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and numerous other things so had since about 10/11 struggled with my energy levels. Serge was the 1st person to truly listen to me and not try to fix the problem but rather empower me to take responsibility for my life. It was a game changer for me, finally someone who got and understood me and was not here simply to give me momentary relief. And this was coupled with the fact that he appeared, and is, a very normal man – i.e.not trying to be fancy in any way – I had seen a lot of different people up to this point who mostly all had a sense of superiority about themselves. And even though my choices have not always been great since this point I have never given up on knowing what love is and that it is possible. I just have at times got caught in the notion of wanting thinking to be a certain way and not taking full responsibility for my choices and actions.
In session (and in life) Serge meets you like no other. His presence and awareness are quite simply remarkable, and you know for certain that here is someone that is not only listening to you with every particle of their being, but reading every energetic nuance. I have found myself open up like never before and once the door has been unlocked its easier to access that depth again and again as we make our way back to our true essence.
To seek true healing is our greatest gift and our body is our marker and catalyst to do this .” to live our lives as mere physical beings without awareness of the greater dimensions of who we are, until life reminds us through the marker of our bodies and through healing that there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…” so true and a real inspiration.
‘It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.’ – Could it also be that most people don’t know that this level of healing is possible, they simply don’t know where to look for true support?
Of course as we are multidimensional beings; made of energy and lived from it. We think we are in control of everything (mostly) but the thing that struck me was what Serge presented to us, that we are a vehicle of expression and receive energy based on our free will. Meaning that if we choose love it is set by our willingness but equally the other way around, when we allow the other energy (evil) through. A beautiful science that makes absolute sense. Energetically spot on!
‘Relief is what gets sold to us all to often, even the emotional outburst can become a relief.’ – Indeed Joel, relief and relaxation are two of today’s most sold ‘commodities’.
People are constantly seeking relief in some shape or form.
What Serge Benhayon offers is such wisdom and a depth of reflection that holds deep self-responsibility. This experience is no different – understanding that the body is energy and the organs are symbolic of what we have taken on.
I love the way you explore the difference between relief and release. Relief is what gets sold to us all to often, even the emotional outburst can become a relief. Release for me comes down to when you understand why what is happening energetically and how you have contributed to it without judgement. It seems to be this awareness and honesty that leads to the truth of the situation and the release that many seek.
Relief is that easy surface layer redirection that never lasts. Release requires us to dig a little deeper but is so much more rewarding.
I often ponder on the question of why it is that we have to get to a point of desperation before we seek true healing, especially when we consider that the slightest little disharmony within us is a dis-ease which leads to a disease. A big clue is that we do not listen and honour what our body is constantly trying to tell us. True healing begins when we start to be honest about what is really going on in our body and recognising the fact that we can live with much more harmony and stillness within and without.
It takes a bit of experience and dedication to energetic responsibility to be able to not have to wait until the point of desperation or crisis comes to make that healing alignment. We are so used to the so-called rhythm of the drama – the ups and downs that provide a life of comfort, even though it is ironically and acutely uncomfortable – that we are blind to the moment that we move out of kilter and flow. As you say Elizabeth, the body is an amazing indicator for us to honour.
With a journey like this Mary you certainly have a lot to appreciate as you decided against the ingrained way of seeking to be the victim and you chose to come away from that and return to the sweet, sensitive and precious being that you are.
Beautiful to read your story of healing Jenny. It is true that many do not seek healing or consider the way they are living until they have a big stop or wake up call so to speak. I work as a Massage therapist and used to work as a Medical Herbalist so am familiar with working with clients and their health. What I am learning is to listen to my body and make changes before my body has to scream at me to get me to listen which it has done in the past because of me not taking responsibility and caring.
It’s so lovely reading your words as you describe coming home to yourself. It’s like receiving a big warm hug. Very beautiful.
Sometimes, it is when we hit rock bottom that we are finally open to hearing the truth. But even then there has to be a willingness to take this on board and live it – and this is something you have done Jenny! Thank you for being such an inspiration!
Henrietta I agree ” it is when we hit rock bottom that we are finally open to hearing the truth. ” Until then we are caught in the illusion of life.
I love what you have shared here Jenny – as a Naturopath and with my love for the natural approach and combined with my love for Science, I too have found that conventional medicine and Natural Medicine still do not hold the full answer – it is only when you bring in the Estoteric Modalities and this deeper understanding that true healing is offered. What a blessing for those of us who have encountered this!
What I love is that the inspiration is boundary-less when I release the constraints of a particular belief or dogma.
There is a bright moment in the depths of despair if we can through that moment seek true healing.
Indeed Heather – the darkest of moments can turn out to be a point of true turnaround and healing.
I like this Heather, that there is always an opportunity to advance no matter what the situation.
I agree Jennifer, when we heal something that has been with us for a long time our lives take on a whole new depth, flavour and colour.
As a Physiotherapist for 20 years I am also familiar with the terms ‘healing’ and ‘medicine’ and have always had a good understanding of these terms, however similar to you Jenny when I did my first Universal Medicine workshop presented by Serge Benhayon I came to realise another dimension to healing that I had not considered before and had not thought was possible. This has had a profound influence on my practice ever since in terms of understanding the science and philosophy of healing and how it works.
‘I’d never put these things together, understanding ‘walk your talk’ as meaning simply that I ate well, took vitamins, exercised and went to bed at a decent time.’ this has always seemed such a figurative thing to say until now as I now know that we literally walk our talk through our quality of movements.
‘At one point I found myself sobbing uncontrollably but following it came a sense of release l’d sought for years, in fact every time I’d touched in on feelings of deep sadness that arose intermittently.’ It’s amazing how powerful esoteric healing is in releasing that which has been held in our bodies for years or even lifetimes. I have experienced this too – even being supported to feel things which I thought were long gone but were/are still very much affecting me years later.
True healing with the gift of Esoteric Medicine and Serge Benhayon is the most profound thing that we can come across and embody in our lives. Inspirational in every way possible.
“It is easy to throw the word healing around but my experience on that day was nothing short of miraculous and changed not only the trajectory of my life in every way, but forever changed my understanding of what healing actually entails.” I agree it is easy to throw the word healing around as so often it is associated with the physicality of ‘feeling better’. However on meeting Serge Benhayon and what Universal Medicine offers we learn what True Healing is and soon realise there is a vast difference as shown in this blog and myself and many 100s of others around the world. Thank you Jenny.
If we rely on eyes then we are easily fooled when we learn to use our body and all our six senses, then this is when all we need to do is be walking who we are and the divine reflection is felt by all.
‘I felt connected to myself in a way that was on the one hand so familiar, I felt ‘home’ and yet I didn’t ever recall feeling that way before.’ Jenny this describes beautifully my experience the first time I too met Serge Benhayon and it is one that has stayed with me ever since meeting him 11 years ago.
“…there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…”
I like this note you end on Jenny. It gives us much to ponder on. If for the most part we are blind to the truth of who we are, then we are also the unseen puppeteers who hold the eyes ‘blind’ and make them focus instead on the dance of the shadows that distracts us from this knowing.
‘Life today bears no resemblance to life back then, with enormous healing evident in every aspect of my life’ and this is what I find so remarkable too… a shift and healing in one area of my life has the most beautiful ripple effect on others areas… this inspires me to accept the interconnectedness of everything.
“But more than this, it began a period of healing that was all encompassing and transformative involving every aspect of my life.” I can relate to this having also had a session with Serge Benhayon. I couldn’t have expressed it in any clearer detail. My meeting with him was life changing and profoundly healing. As the wisdom expressed was so simple and understandable, as he met me at my level and allowed me to realise there was so much more to me and my life, just waiting to unfold.
If healing is what happens when we’re open to letting go of things we’ve been holding onto (behaviours and emotions etc) then it depends on my own willingness to be honest and see how I am, with myself and others. Self awareness and observation without criticism has to be the first step.
Well said Bryony – acceptance allow us to see things clearly and to let go of trying to manipulate situations to fit our own pictures.
“He helped me see the nature of deeper unresolved feelings I was often aware of but had never quite been able to understand their origins, deep feelings of sadness seemingly unrelated to my situation and circumstance.”
Through the simplicity of the esoteric modalities we are offered a point from which to re-establish a deep sense of inner stillness and in turn to then feel all that gets in the way of this being our natural daily state of being.
Since young, I can recall carrying around tensions but was not able to name or express them (as a child if I tried they were not understood or were dismissed by those I tried to communicate with). I therefore, learned to bury them or tried to ignore them. I learned to live with them and they became my normal. I put it down to, well, that’s just the way I am made. When I met Serge Benhayon the revelation that these tensions were real and that I wasn’t abnormal was a breath of fresh air. It was confirmed that these tensions were there because I had known that life didn’t feel like I knew how it should feel (as do we all) and that in my reaction to this I had built up emotion and hardness in my body. Since then I have had a number of very profound releases too and they feel like a miracle to me every time, especially as so much more space is created in my body and I feel more still and connected every time.
‘…the depth of healing a client could choose…’ such a powerful realisation that we are in fact responsible for the amount of healing possible through our own choices and surrender.
“…A tension I realised I had lived with as long as I could remember was relieved in a way I can only liken to having the deepest itch scratched for the first time… it began a period of healing that was all encompassing and transformative involving every aspect of my life…” Your experience gives insight to the relationship between tension held within the body, be it emotional or physical and the development of dis-ease in the body.
” it began a period of healing that was all encompassing and transformative involving every aspect of my life” Confirmation that true healing has occurred as the consequences of the shift unfold in to every part of our lives in surprising ways, as we relinquish the behaviours and attitudes that kept us bound to a particular emotion, belief and ideal that was tangled up in our body.
Miracles do happen, we have just come to expect something ‘biblical’ when in fact they are taking place all the time in a very down to earth way.
“It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.” Since meeting Serge Benhayon and undergoing a great deal of healing, I no longer allow my health to deteriorate to such dire depths before seeking help. His approach has taught me that me, my health and my body are extremely important and worth taking immense care of, so these days I seek support to avoid calamity rather than as a consequence of it.
Being met, truly met for who we are by another, can bring about so much healing just on its own… healing can be so very simple.
This is indeed a new way (but in truth an eons old way) of healing that is being offered by Serge Benhayon…” …to initiate healing for themselves, was both profound, fascinating and asked a level of responsibility l’d not understood before.” It is the level of responsibility that brings about the true and lasting change.
Ahhhhh… the responsibility word… one which I used to avoid with great skill and one that I now adore and am inspired by… it gives me a sense of my place and purpose in the world.
It is interesting how sometimes we have to go to extreams, be it illness or crisis or some other issue to bring us to enough of a stop to truly be open to healing
What is possible in regards to healing and the dimension of what true healing involves only is known when the fact of energy and energetic quality is explored and experienced, then it is a lived knowing by the body and thus a universal knowing way beyond what the mind alone can fathom.
I have often wondered if I would have met Serge had my life been going a lot better in the temporal sense. It wasn’t though of course, I had a real drinking problem which I was aware of but had no idea of how to deal with. Serge never judged me about it and never told me to stop but his love and consistency showed me another way to live and the drinking just ran its course until I no longer had the desire to poison my body anymore. This in itself I find to be a miracle!
Any reminder, in whatever form, where the healing modalities like Esoteric Connective Tissue Therapy, Esoteric Yoga or Chakra-puncture, or a reflection from another or a reminder in nature that we are more than just the physical, is worth everything to us.
Discovering what true healing means was an absolute eye-opener for me..What we generally accept as being ‘cured’ can be like putting a bandaid on an erupting volcano. It’s not going to last, or work! Thank you Serge Benhayon for offering the depth of awareness of what true healing is and the self responsibility that brings.
I so know what you mean by your ‘previous life’ Jenny. My life prior to esoteric healing and all that it encompasses is too like a foreign land, an ancient memory, another life. The boundless ness of multi-dimensionality is not bounded as was this past life – bounded, and bonded as that was.
I actually shudder at the thought of my previous ‘happy’ life, a rather strung out meagre affair that I used to think was full and indeed, it was full, stuffed full of frantic and constant ‘doing’, whereas now life is bulging with being, which has created oodles of space and masses of purpose.
In describing Serge’s ‘unassuming professionalism’ I can feel the absolute purpose, love and care in the way he is in his sessions – a true role model.
Jennifer it’s a great point you make here “For the first time I knew I understood the relationship of these feelings to the condition I was suffering.” as I had that experience, for the first time getting a sense of what was the reason, the cause and the root of why I had the condition I had.
Everywhere we look there is disconnection. Disconnection from our illnesses and their cause, disconnection from one another, disconnection from life, disconnection from ourselves and disconnection from God. All disconnection is addressed by simply re-connecting back to ourselves through the body and through that re-connection we re-connect to everything and everyone else. We are re-united with the Oneness of life, a Oneness that in truth we can never ever leave.
The feeling of ‘that makes sense’ is a common response to Serge Benhayon’s presentations and sessions. There is nothing out there, as it is what makes sense to the body, our greatest marker of harmony and truth.
An inspiring expose of how true healing can only occur when the healing is about the whole body and being… and not just about fixing the symptoms.
The act of truly meeting another is so simple yet so profound and it can change the course of our life .
This is what happened to me when Serge Benhayon ‘met’ me in our first ever healing session and I know hundreds of others over the years who have also experienced this.
Yes indeed, it was the profound feeling of having experienced something, i.e. being met, for the first time in my life.
Yes to be seen and ‘met’ for who you truly are, which awakens a memory of the divine being you are is quite something, particularly when all you have been told or led to belief is that you are not worth much.
‘Experiencing life in color suddenly after only ever experiencing it in black and white’ is a great way to explain the change I also experienced after my first session with Serge Benhayon. And the more sessions I had with him the vibrancy and the tone of the color changed to such magnificent colors unknown to me before.
The simple act of ‘meeting’ another can in itself move mountains. It’s such a simple thing and yet so many people never ever get met in their lives because we live in a world where so few people have truly met themselves. This being the case, what is it that we’re all doing?
Great point Alexis – sadly we see it as ‘normal’ to meet each other as well as ourselves at a superficial level, hence we don’t even question the disconnection and shallowness.
Eva I wouldn’t even use the word ‘meet’ for the standard skimming past others that we all do as a matter of course. We are all involved in actively avoiding ourselves and others, it requires constant dedication.
‘The change was not only personal but in a short time flowed very obviously into my professional life too.’ – When we start to understand the energetic principles of life and apply them in our day to day living, it cannot but affect every area of our life.
Yes we cannot compartmentalises areas of our life .. well we can try and we do (for example think work and home life are separate) but this is an illusion as what we do wherever we are affects the all. This is something I am feeling and becoming aware of more and more.
‘I had come to understand that healing was something that goes much deeper than l had ever learnt through my own study and that my own healing was pivotal to what I was able to offer clients in their respective healing.’ Yes the depth to which we choose to heal ourselves and live our everyday lives determines the quality we bring in our relationship with others.
Serge Benhayon has opened the door on a whole new realm of medicine, a realm that has its roots firmly embedded in ancient wisdom hence why when it feels so familiar when we connect with it. Serge offers us a quality of connection and understanding that immediately supports us to see through the malaise of our emotions and identify some core choices that have led us away from our own inner wisdom. A genuine, life changing experience that firmly plants us back on the path home.
What if healing does not equal ‘good health’? Could it be that our ability to Love and care is what we are really here to grow? Then whether we are sick or well is not so critical compared to how deep we are prepared to go. Thank you Jenny for this inspiring blog.
I always love reading about people who get to the root cause of their illness and move on in a very evolving way, for it is truly inspiring for the rest of us.
This exposes what we accept as healing is merely a sticking plaster over the problem, not truly getting the root of the problem, and then it surfaces again in another form later Jennifer. Your experience was a great turning point and revelation to understand the depth needed for true healing, thank you.
“The period of healing instigated that day opened a new dimension for me”. True healing and the real purpose of our interaction with each other, to dismantle our 3D version of the world and restore multi-dimensionality to all we do and percieve and in doing so, heal the deep pain caused by reducing our selves to just being human.
Accepting that ” there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…” is not fantasy or science fiction brings truth and reality to the reality of life.
Understanding that healing goes far deeper than just addressing the signs and symptoms of being unwell opens the full potential of healing. This is something that we have yet to realise across society.
It is interesting how so often we can mix up returning to a state of function as healing but what I have found is that we can do this and everything can appear rosey but sooner or later the same issue will rear its head, it may not look the same but this time will come with more vigour and force – not as a way of punishment but rather as a way to learn, so we can live more of the love that we are. Also the only true settlement I can find when I am stuck in something is to understand the root cause of it otherwise even if I can get back to feeling ok I still feel the massive underlying tension.
The enormimity of true healing from meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal medicine changes the whole concept currently available taking in our whole body with energy as the leading way and our choices of the way we live. Serge Benhayon certainly reignites us to who we really are, is so profound and meeting ourselves is everything deep inside and allows the true knowing of the love we all know and are. A very profound and knowing sharing Jenny thank you.
Serge Benhayon definitely reignites us to who we really are, and in this we are able to work with our own healing as we reclaim that connection of the amazing divineness within.
I so relate to you likening the period of healing which followed after your first session with Serge Benhayon as “experiencing life in color suddenly after only ever experiencing it in black and white”. I can say the same for each time I meet him, over ten years on from the first talk in a packed room in London. The depth of wisdom, love, care and integrity, and in fact all the qualities I hold dear, he lives and shares inspires me to the core.
I agree, but this has also made me ask myself do I truly live my life to the full in every moment of every day after being taught and remembering so so much about life and purpose .. there is so much more I can bring.
That is a great question Vicky. Do I rely on these precious moments to be boosted up and just feel better in life, or do I open myself to be deeply touched by the inspiration, be supported to let go of what holds me back, and feel the joy of taking the next step in life. A very valuable reflection.
‘This was a new and subtle experience but distinct enough to recall 17 years on.’ feeling absolute truth like this leaves a marker which remains for lifetimes – even if not lived at the time the imprint is always there to return to.
True healing is about taking responsibility for the energy we choose in every moment.
Yes its very much about taking responsibility for the energy we choose in every moment. It is about staying constantly presence.
We can walk our talk, have the ‘cleanest’ diet, but it is only when we are prepared to look at the energy running our lives that true healing is…”…all encompassing and transformative involving every aspect…” of our lives.
“The discussion was followed by hands-on-healing (Sacred Esoteric Healing) where I felt (energetic) shifts occurring within my lungs and body that I still remember as if it were yesterday.” I also had a really rememberable experience of my first healing session and many years later I am still amazed by the transformations that take place during each session.
‘As I listened to what was being said about the origins and nature of my condition, I registered that while my mind could say ‘yes that makes sense’, it was within my body that I was registering the truth of what I’d heard.’ – Very true, when I listen to Serge Benhayon’s presentation or in one on one conversation with him, my entire body is nodding in recognition of what he says.
Those ‘timely meetings’ and encounters are pivotal to what we bring into our lives. Reading about you meeting your friend and it leading you to Serge Benhayon – and totally changing the course of your life, reminds me how so many of our encounters are never just merely an encounter and that there is a reason and opportunity in everything.
True healing is the only way back to the love that we walked away from. Fake healing is yet another step away from that same love.
Healing in its fullness is monumental, spherical, and multidimensional. The way the word is generally used encompasses nothing of the truth of the true healing process, nor knows anything of the necessity for extracting ourselves from the forces that play on earth.
The world is awash with therapies that ensure that the world stays sick.
Yes, we have set ourselves up to be in denial or dismissal of truth and hence also true health care.
“It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.” I totally agree, more often than not we get on with life, we get on with what is going on and we don’t end up making any real big differences, making any big changes or in fact taking care of ourselves unless of course we are forced to. Yet when we embrace the depth of healing offered it transforms every inch of our lives.
‘Life today bears no resemblance to life back then, with enormous healing evident in every aspect of my life. I jokingly refer to the distinction of the way life felt before that appointment as being of ‘my previous life’.’ – I agree Jenny, it is definitely a distinct difference in my life ‘before and after’ Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. Previous life is exactly how it feels.
Heavens, what a gift this blog is. It is true, we rarely look beyond our physical body to the all we are made of and from, till we are faced with a life changing event or life threatening situation that we cannot ‘fix’ by other means.
The depths of healing that Serge Benhayon supports us to go to reveals to the prime cause, the source of the imbalance that led to what ever condition we have, and allows true healing to occur.
The simplicity in this is gobsmacking, not only with regards to more loving relationships and a joyful, healthier and more vital population, but with the millions of pounds saved every year on the NHS and Social Services not to mention the exponential increases in productivity and the economy as a consequence!
“The crying then never released the feelings, only relieved them… until the next time.” It’s interesting how we can cry to release something but then it inevitably returns and builds up again. If we have not dealt with the core issue underneath this can be a recurring pattern. The difference with Esoteric Healing is that we have an opportunity to connect to the energy of our true essence, which means going deeper than the presenting issue which is then free to lose its grip and to clear. This is pure alchemy, and we do not then have to stay in the same recurring pattern unless we choose to recreate it.
The healing that Serge Benhayon delivers speaks to all of us on all levels, mental, emotional, cellular and energetic, no aspect is ignored or left out, every part of us feels included, appreciated and understood. This is the role of a true physician.
I have always deeply appreciated the ability of our bodies to heal themselves but in realising that we are able to heal the causes of illness and disease through nominating the root cause and then making new choices complete the process and is true healing.
Healing is not about ‘curing’ or getting rid of symptoms it is about addressing the ill energy we have allowed to flow through our bodies and taking responsibility for the divine vessel we have been given.
Jennifer, I love the way you have described life changing after the healing with Serge Benhayon as – “experiencing life in colour suddenly after only ever experiencing it in black and white” – as it is also how I would describe the amazing changes in my life. In fact. I would also add that my life seemed to often be out of focus, very blurred, whereas these days there is so much more clarity and definition and as a result my life’s ‘picture’ is a joy to observe.
” This l’ve observed through my own practice ever since and more times than l’d care to count… it is human nature or so it would seem, to live our lives as mere physical beings without awareness of the greater dimensions of who we are, until life reminds us through the marker of our bodies and through healing that there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye… ”
This is very true and people need to be woken out of their slumber , and this is done by the most efficient way possible that lets us know we are more than human.
Thankyou for your inspirational sharing Jennifer. Your testimony of Serge Benhayon and his wonderful ability to awaken the healer within us all is spot on.
It is true, we are often just fine when we live our life as is and only when our bodies literally stop us with illness and disease for a very long time that we start to ask for more and we are willing to let go of our protection. Even though if we are honest we can feel at any moment in our lives that a lot is not true or loving.
This is truly amazing – and I love how you share the fact of feeling how in this session there was a true release – rather than getting off on the relief and the ability to cry and be emotional and the practitioner getting off on bringing that out in a person as a cathartic release, there was true healing that allowed the sadness to be released by dealing with that which lies underneath
“He helped me see the nature of deeper unresolved feelings I was often aware of but had never quite been able to understand their origins, deep feelings of sadness seemingly unrelated to my situation and circumstance.” We have an ability to remove ourselves so far away from that deep pain that it seems completely abstract – until we are offered the understanding from someone who knows healing inside out, as Serge does.
‘…deep feelings of sadness seemingly unrelated to my situation and circumstance.’ I love how this shows what can be underneath the aspects of us which are on the surface. Great to leave no stone unturned.
Nothing is left to chance with Esoteric Healing, as everything is dealt with from every angle. My first level two Esoteric Healing course experience was profound and proved to me that all the healing sessions I had had previously were totally ineffective. As I lay there face down and another student was working on the area of our backs that stores childhood issues, I could feel things popping off my back like popcorn. I have also experienced this while working on other people.
We are always empowered, never do we have to give our lives or bodies over to predispositions or case histories. We make the choice and our life follows through.
Yes our bodies are so supportive in that they carry us through life, they remind us of how we need to live for better health and also through connection with our bodies we can find out who we truly are. ‘my own healing was pivotal to what I was able to offer clients in their respective healing’ and it is through how we live in our bodies that we can offer inspiration and healing to others.
We can be so desperate to find a cure, searching high and low for the right treatment – when really, the best medicine of all is found in the quality in which we live our daily lives with.
‘A tension I realised I had lived with as long as I could remember was relieved in a way I can only liken to having the deepest itch scratched for the first time.’ – Amazing Jenny, you have described so well a sensation very familiar to me, that I did not have the words to express myself.
Experiencing Universal Medicine Therapies has been life changing. They fundamentally work at the grass roots level of the body and I have felt a profound change to my health and well-being because of them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone.
I got to feel this recently with regards to my colleagues
“there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…”
They are starting to ask questions about their health, their lack of confidence, lack of trust, the abusiveness they see and feel in all relationships, they are becoming more aware. And it is when we start to question the way we are currently living I feel we are given the awareness to seek the answers. What we then do with the answers to the way we live is another choice that we then make.
What I love about the esoteric modalities is how all encompassing they are in their approach, not just looking at the physical, but also deep hurts, patterns, behaviours, my responsibility in what is going on in my life and always a deepening awareness of myself, life and the energy behind every choice I make, always supporting me to return to the essence of who I am.
What if professionalism goes much deeper than politeness and appropriate boundaries? In fact what if true professionalism as a health professional involves living your life in true care and respect outside of the treatment room as well as within it?
I really love the honesty in this article, because it takes a huge amount of humbleness for someone to be so successful at their craft and yet see that it has not delivered all that they had hoped it would, and especially when their craft is with the alternative healing therapies. Your humbleness Sarah is the mark of your expertise in being a true healing practitioner – because you are willing to see the truth.
‘It is easy to throw the word healing around but my experience on that day was nothing short of miraculous and changed not only the trajectory of my life in every way, but forever changed my understanding of what healing actually entails.’ You have spoken for all of us who have walked into the healing room of Serge Benhayon, Jenny! It is nothing short of miraculous and I love how you have pointed out the ‘spherical’ effect of this healing – it does change the trajectory of one’s life and heals every level of life– money and finance, health, joy, the mental realm, relationships, how one works, plays and eats, in fact everything!
“That day, December 16th 2001, marked a change in my life I could never have predicted” – a day Jennifer that brought you back to the light, truth and love of the body full stop.
True healing is not only a cessation of symptoms it is about expanding our awareness and appreciation of who we really are, naturally evolving our choices and behaviour. Serge Benhayon not only consistently offers all of this, but continues to expand our understanding and appreciation of our bodies way beyond our current paradigms, walking us into the future of medicine today.
This is a great expose of the difference between relief of symptoms and true healing… no matter how much we are caring for our bodies, there is a deeper connection waiting for us to come back to – the truth and wisdom we each innately know.
No matter how much healing we ‘do’ on the outside, ie the physical body, the true and lasting healing comes from connection to our inner world.
The ‘simplicity of the tools of the trade’ that you observed with Serge Benhayon continues in the Universal Modalities taught and practised today. There are no bells and whistles, no glamourising the practitioner, no talking down to the client and certainly not making the techniques or the treatment more important than the client’s own personal relationship with their own body and life. Simply the most honouring and caring support to a deeper level of awareness, connection and responsibility.
To me this clearly transforms what healing is all about “Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality. It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.” it has changed my life and I am deeply appreciative of the modalities that Universal Medicine have provided.
That is so true. What depths have we gone to in our own healing? We have to ask this as practitioners because if we cannot see something is an issue, or holding us back then we would not consider it an issue for another.
I have been through years of various therapies, including one where you are encouraged to cry and scream into a cushion, none of them gave me the true release that Esoteric Healing does as taught by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine.
I too tried many therapies over many years Carmel but nothing brought the deep healing, letting go and connection to myself and my body that the modalities taught by Serge Benhayon, and offered by Universal Medicine, and the Ageless Wisdom teachings have done.
Thank you Jennifer – you sum up so beautifully how we so easily have life upside down and inside out. We are not here to perfect life’s functionality but to whole heartedly remember – we’re not from here in the first place, we are energetic beings of light destined to go around and around until we return to what is right.
‘But more than this, it began a period of healing that was all encompassing and transformative involving every aspect of my life’ This is what Serge uniquely brings that true healing is not a one time fix and is done. It is a continuous unfolding that flows into every area of our lives: relationships, family, friends work, what we eat, how we sleep, walk and move. True healing is a life-long way of being.
I can relate to a lot of what you share Jennifer – the deep sadness that is not in proportion to what I had experienced in my life. As a matter of fact when I started to consider the possibility of past life experiences the tension I felt eased considerably.
The world needs to wake up to what true healing is and we will when things get really bad but we do have to get over just looking for the cure when the real medicine is in how we live every day.
Healing old hurts and patterns has been possible through the support of the Universal Medicine practitioners and modalities which go beyond the physical. I’d tried all sorts of therapies but they all stopped short of me being able to connect to my essence and heal whatever was getting in the way of this connection. I have experienced my own, ‘At one point I found myself sobbing uncontrollably but following it came a sense of release l’d sought for years,…’
It’s true. Receiving Esoteric Healing is like coming home. I remember receiving my first session and my whole body said ‘yes’. I felt more like myself than I had done for most of my life.
The ‘whole body’ yes is a very clear marker that we are on the right track. It is like our whole being ‘jumps for joy’.
Same for me Rebecca, My body knew it and responded with a resounding YES. I also felt more like myself than I had ever done and this ‘trueness’ of who I am continues to expand and grow to this day and I am sure will continue beyond. This is the beauty of the wonderful Esoteric Healing modalities, true healing.
Its absolutely beautiful the feeling we get, that reminder of coming home, the deep surrender the deep connection.
Healing: the process of realizing and adjusting to the fact that ‘there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…’
No truer two statements spoken about life Alex.
I can relate to Before meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine Therapies experiencing my life in black and white and After (and ongoing) experiencing life in color. Choosing a life of healing definitely changed my life in every way you can think of.
One paradox I found is that doctors (who use interventions that work) rarely call themselves healers while those who use interventions that work far less call themselves healers…
Our own healing is pivotal for what is truly available for us to offer another to support their healing. When we are clear of ‘something’ we can hold another with total understanding and a reflection that they too can feel for themselves there is more – another way if they choose.
Crucial point Sandra, this absolutely raises the bar on the integrity and potential offered to clients.
Agreed Rosanna discerning the integrity of the practitioner is essential if we truly are willing to heal. Self-responsibility from everyone offers a profound difference to our healing what truly ails us.
Often people who attend the presentations and workshops run by Universal Medicine say ‘it is like coming home’.
A really beautiful account of your experiance – the distinction between the relief and the true release is so key here, because what was offered was a true healing and letting go of the root, rather than just a leveling of the surface tension or symptoms to provide momentary releif that is short lived as the issues reassert themselves.
I have read many accounts of peoples’ first meetings with Serge Benhayon, of their relationships and friendships with him and of their experiences of being with him and observing him, and the same themes, words, feelings and expressions come up over and over again. And this got me thinking about other people in the world – because often what happens is that if you speak to a handful of people about someone, you would normally get a variety of responses and impressions; a spread of opinion. This is because that person may be presenting different versions of themselves and it is also because of what that person reflects in the other, what buttons they might push. But with Serge Benhayon it is different. In two ways. All he is, is true love – 24/7, every single second, moment and movement of each day – so there is zero variation there. True love is true love. Simple – and that is all, and everything, that you get from Serge. The second factor is that because he meets every single person in absolute equality and the absolutely knowing of the love that resides in us all, then we all get met in that equality and we all get to feel THAT – rather than any buttons being pushed.
Beautiful distinction Otto… and reminds me I was pondering recently the difference between courses I used to attend in the days before meeting Serge Benhayon and it came down to one simple fact – there was no love, and in that no being met in true equality. I was the ‘lowly’ participant, in need of help, and the facilitator was the one who was to be the saviour. Already the dynamic was destined to fail when it came to true healing.
Yes. I would leave such courses or lectures with a tension in my body…an ideal that I now had to try and live up to. Sure-fire recipe for failure. But it is actually worse than that; I had set myself a target and failed – which resulted in me feeling even less of myself than I did before attending. Universal Medicine shows me that I have it all already; there is no struggle, journey or mountain to climb, it is simply a loving and deeply supported process of surrender. Not always easy and often resisted – but at all times there is a deep knowing that it is who I am and not someone I am trying to be.
Healing and curing are very different which is why it can be possible to die from an illness and still experience great healing. In fact illness and disease offers a huge opportunity to heal so much.
“… As I listened to what was being said about the origins and nature of my condition, I registered that while my mind could say ‘yes that makes sense’, it was within my body that I was registering the truth of what I’d heard… For the first time I knew I understood the relationship of these feelings to the condition I was suffering…” This is a significant point as this shows how it is the body that registers the energetic truth, and from this moment, energetic reconfiguration of the body happens, which is the beginning of letting go of the energetic configuration that has kept the body in a ‘dis-eased’ state, restoring and returning the body back to a state of harmony and acceptance. It also shows how mind power, where verbal mantras or will power to overcome say an addiction, don’t truly heal, as it is the body that registers truth and honesty.
Getting rid of symptoms alone is not true healing. Changing the patterns and momentums that brought the illness in the first place, whilst dealing with the symptoms brings the true and lasting change we are seeking.
What is beautiful to note, is how Serge Benhayon’s unassuming professionalism has not strayed given his now global success as a practitioner and presenter of the Universal Medicine Healing Modalities. He remains constant and steady in his humbleness which is clearly not put on for a show, it is his embodied way which is a joy to be around and to learn from.
This is a great observation. Despite the extraordinary “success” of his teachings and the healing modalities that he has presented and brought to humanity, he remains utterly humble; rock solid in the unshakeable knowing that we are all equal, we are all one and that our wisdom is not ours but comes from the Universe.
“… there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…” So much more and Serge Benhayon makes the ‘more’ the foundation of life. There is so much to become aware of, a bit mind blowing to say the least (which is never a bad thing!) when we truly come to understand how everything is interwoven by space and energy and therefore every move we make matters immensely.
‘…to experiencing life in color suddenly after only ever experiencing it in black and white.’ this can feel quite magical – with the potential of the truth opening up before us.
Yes, increased awareness gives us more power and the opportunity to be more responsible!
There are so many flat worlder’s that only believe in what they see and physically touch that are lost in their own illusions. When we open our hearts and fully embrace the magnitude of multidimensionality and our part in it do we go, Wow. But, we will never leave anyone behind.
Time and time again, our minds (what we think) have been proven wrong; and yet we still allow them to rule our movements.
‘To understand and see the correlation between healing at this level and the flow on affect to the potential for clients to initiate healing for themselves, was both profound, fascinating and asked a level of responsibility l’d not understood before’. This is gold Jenny, little understood and great to have it re-stated here.
People have been known to lose their religion and stop believing because of the disillusionment of what we had been presented and what happens in life. What if we are taught from birth to honour, respect and love ourselves and shine?
I just have to wonder just how bad the state of health in general has to drop before people en mass start to seek the true healing that is on offer with Universal Medicine.
‘The sense of release was quite distinct from the relief l was more familiar with, as on previous occasions I’d find myself crying from a depth that I knew was out of proportion to the situation at hand.’ I can really relate to crying as relieving a little bit of the pain but knowing it was still there until next time it was triggered, to being supported to be in touch with the truth of what was there and how this was released, clearing out old patterns and the past so to live the future in the present.
Although we can feel we have dealt with matters in our lives there is great value in asking if we have addressed the root cause.
“Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality. It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.” Wow the depth of love, care and responsibility expressed in just this one paragraph moves me deeply.
Before Universal Medicine I didn´t know what true healing actually is as all the available – traditional or new – conventional and complementary therapies have their place in curing the body but don´t touch on healing.
I’d take this further…I didn’t even know there was difference between healing or true healing. What I mean is that I thought that healing was the holy grail. i.e. If I have cancer and then I am ‘healed’ and don’t have cancer anymore, then that is the pinnacle of healing. What Universal Medicine has shown me is a whole other level to it. A level of healing that gets to the very root cause of the dis-ease ensuring that the symptoms aren’t just alleviated or buried (only to re-emerge in a similar or different guise at some later time) but that they are truly healed allowing the body to expand and evolve out from, and beyond, those hurts/issues that were causing the dis-ease in the first place. True healing is not just for the one body, in the one moment, in the one lifetime. It is for the whole universe.
“It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.” This is so key. Unless there is a reason to look for healing we don’t do it. Why is this?
True healing allows us to connect with that feeling of “being home”. It is a very tangible feeling of belonging to something greater, that is we get to feel that we are more than just flesh and bone.
Re-discovering the wisdom of our bodies and listening to it, supports us to self heal as a way of life.
Serge Benhayon’s approach cuts through all our predisposed beliefs that healing is about acquired knowledge and takes us back to the simplicity of reading energy first. This requires a deep connection to a universal intelligence within our bodies that informs us on much deeper level about the real causes of our ills. The way Serge works is both completely new and very ancient at the same time, drawn from a connection to the ancient art of universal healing that is by its very essence our future medicine.
I have now read this blog many times and I know it is one I shall re-read in the future for it reminds me of the enormity of what is on offer with nothing held back and what is such a privilege to know Serge and the wisdom he shares so freely and how encouraging he is in helping us all to be able to heal and connect to that same wisdom also.
“At one point I found myself sobbing uncontrollably but following it came a sense of release l’d sought for years, in fact every time I’d touched in on feelings of deep sadness that arose intermittently” – … and they say one can (so-called) “die from a broken heart” though from my own experience similar to yours here Jenny would say it [the ‘breaking’] would be in my lungs first.
We are never ever going to get our health right if we keep thinking we are just physical when we are evidently not at all just physical but far more energetic. Whilst we experience physical outplays of emotions in our body, these can be minimised physically but of course never truly healed unless the energy is cleared because all emotions are energetic anyway- proved by the fact that we can still hold onto sadness from our children even 70 years later.
I feel part of this is excluding the being part of who we are, we see health and healing as being functional or not, instead of starting from the point of understanding we are amazing, vibrant, multidimensional beings and if we aren’t living that then that is the beginning of illness and disease. We have created a world that currently is very good at taking care of and fixing the human/physical part but not the being – who we are on the inside.
Jenny thank you for all you have shared here. I always felt that there was a link between what was going on inside me in terms of thoughts and emotions and the effects on the body, but there was nothing I could find that could help me understand the link and truly unravel it in my body until I found the Universal Medicine Therapies and presentations by Serge Benhayon. Since using the therapies developed by Serge I have let go of so much and experienced a profound healing with each session, healing has been for me two things – discarding what is not true which comes with understanding and often realisations, and revealing more of the multidimensional being I am and then living from this true state of beingness. In the past other modalities gave me a temporary relief but the issue often emerged later on again, and there was no support to bring forth my true self, it was just to fix something without a confirmation of or support to live the being/soul I am.
When I met Serge Benhayon I was very angry, disturbed and given up about the state of the world. I was full of blame and could not understand why people were behaving so terribly all over the planet. When I started to understand the energetic dynamics at play, and also my part in it, I did not like the situation any more, but there was a growing acceptance in what I was witnessing and a great sense of settlement in my body.
I find this is also the case when we gain a deep understanding of our physical condition and our own connection and part in it. We are invited to let go of our position of disempowered resentment and victimhood, to a relationship of understanding empowerment and responsibility.
Everyone’s experience of meeting Serge Benhayon seems similar in as much is that everyone feels met and deeply understood. Serge Benhayon has a way that sees through people to the very marrow of their bones and sees the pure love that they are and this is felt by the recipient and it is a huge settlement for the body to feel this. It’s like a huge sigh that at last we are seen for who we truly are. We have produced a society that cares more about what we can do/achieve and seemingly cares little for who we are. So to be met in this way does have such a profound effect on the body. I know this to be true because I have experienced this for myself and how settling it is.
This is a personally evident and very profound account of true healing. Science may not be able or willing yet to explore or explain what this means but our bodies simply do by experiencing it. We know it when we meet it so to speak and gosh, do we need it.
We can get things so wrong, thinking we are on track with long meditations or intellectual study, when the truth is that we already have everything within us all to return to who we truly are. The teachings from Serge Benhayon and the Universal Medicine Therapies are completely life changing.
Amongst a lot of inspiration, one particular thing I love about this article is the clarity of something you experienced 17 years ago still felt absolutely currently in your body. This is a hint to the vast wisdom of our bodies, to inspire, hold and guide us… the more open and receptive we are the more our bodies can share.
Receiving a healing which reconnects us to our natural state of being and stillness is different than receiving a treatment that aims to remove symptoms.
One supports us to respond to the learning offered by the situation and expand our awareness, responsibility and expression, while the other just relieves us of the inconvenience of having to face the lesson.
It was within your body that you registered and knew what was being presented back to you. In this it shows us that not only do we already know everything, but that it is from the body we know it.
I have a huge amount of appreciation reading this post as the way you describe your first session with Serge Benhayon is very similar to the way I felt when I met you for the first time as a practitioner of my first chakra-puncture session. It is clear that Serge shares the wisdom he has connected to with all so that this world is filled with thousands who can reflect a true way to live. I am also appreciating that I now do this too as a result of my first session with you not in a treatment room but in the way I live my life.
Wow that’s beautiful Leonne, thanks… and this illustrates exactly how it is we play our part in contributing to changing the world.
‘It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.’ And in addition the depth to which they were willing to nominate that which was untrue and then in turn surrender to the healing on offer.
Yes exactly Michael… I would call that ‘holding a space for someone’ without that being a mind-driven practise. Within that space they can choose the depth they are willing to go.
I love the way Serge Benhayon helps us to understand the symbolism in our illnesses so that we can understand the choices we have made that led to their existence. How we choose to live is our medicine.
True Carmel, when we understand what led to our illnesses we have a choice either to continue and live an irresponsible way of life or to stop and take responsibility for our own health, in other words ‘How we choose to live is our medicine’.
Meeting Serge Benhayon also brought to me the understanding around true healing and what that actually means as I too settled for the quick cure, never to delve deeper into the real cause, and wondering why certain areas of my life, didn’t change.
Julie likewise my understanding of healing and what that really means has been transformed since making life about love and truth and not about existing and constantly bettering myself in a wrong and right situation.
We heal through movements not by meditating on a mountain for 10 hours or sympathising with a client.
Very good point Doug, I have this mentality of ‘just fix this and move on’, not deepening to a level that supports me to really assess what is occurring and why it is occurring.
Yes and the surrender supports the levels of allowing this to happen. Knowing that what will take place has come from the choices we have made in each moment and movement.
Its beautiful to have the understanding of cure and healing , so we can choose which path we would like to take.
…’the de
‘…while my mind could say ‘yes that makes sense’, it was within my body that I was registering the truth of what I’d heard.’ I love the distinction being made here. There are things that makes sense to the mind when we intellectually agree with something but then there is that whole body sense that something is true. The latter is so much deeper than a mere thought process, an absolute knowingness in the very cells and particles of our being. When something is true, we know it with everything we are.
I have to agree because when I first went along to workshop with Serge, a lot of what he said didn’t make sense to my way of thinking but my body just knew it was the truth and that in itself was a miracle as well as my body knew better than my mind and even in the checked out way I was living I still felt it and couldn’t wait till the next time to see him and the next time was a one on one session which totally blew me away.
Great observation Kev ‘ my body just knew it was the truth’ I can relate to this too, being in the presence of Serge and receiving true wisdom goes right to the core of our being, and has nothing to do with mind. It’s an unmistakable feeling and life changing.
Jenny I can relate to what you have shared
“I’d find myself crying from a depth that I knew was out of proportion to the situation at hand. The crying then never released the feelings, only relieved them… until the next time.”
This happened to me all the time as a child to well into my 50’s I could be laughing at something funny that had happened with friends one minute and the next I would be crying uncontrollably. As you said everything was way out of proportion to the situation, it was at times very embarrassing. Serge Benhayon and the Universal Medicine therapies and workshops have supported me to peel away the layers of life I had encased myself with and get to the nub of the issue and once that was done and healed I can now laugh at something funny without dissolving into tears.
Mary, Jenny the same here your comments remind me of the rollercoaster way in which I would be living my life, what deep appreciation I have right now for the difference since Universal Medicine therapies became part of my life through my deep love and care for myself.
Before coming across Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon I felt haunted by a deep sadness and depression, emotions that would become very evident when spending time on my own. Despite having years of ‘alternative’ medicine nothing got to the core of it. One session with Serge and for the first time in my life, I properly understood their origins and was able to release a huge amount from my body, the consequence of which I was able to cut my alcohol consumption over night. This is the marker of true healing, a deep understanding of the ‘why’, releasing any investment in it and letting go of the energy, then experiencing a genuine shift in behaviour as a consequence.
Yes wow Rowena, that is the sort of remarkable change that marks true healing I agree, because not only is your body suddenly resolved of long-suffered conditions or symptoms, but you are more aware, more loving and with more clarity in the process. These latter aspects are also present when true healing occurs.
“It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.” This is so true yet it need not be. If we educate children from birth to honour, respect and maintain their connection to their essence, with which they are born, they can unfold and grow expressing their true nature rather than having to re-discover it as a result of a ‘calamity of some sort’.
‘It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.’ this exposes the evil of comfort – so often it is only when this is not there do we so readily and actively seek such healing. This is true in my case also.
‘It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.’ I agree Jenny, this is usually how it is. Working in aged care and also supporting adults with brain injuries or neurological conditions, we are required to assess need and write ‘care plans’ for clients. It occurs to me to ask. why wait until someone is ill to write a care plan, why not do the same for everyone as part of our every day and for health. This is the basis of true self care.
Relief is like the safety overflow pipe in water tanks that doesn’t address the drip that is causing it. Tears are like that also. Until we get to the source of the problem the drip continues.
Yes great analogy Steve… very apt
So often these days medicine can give us relief from symptoms but unless the underlying issue is addressed there will be no release, we could get a cancerous lung removed but that still doesn’t deal with the sadness that is left.
“…as on previous occasions I’d find myself crying from a depth that I knew was out of proportion to the situation at hand.”- I have had a similar experience where I found myself crying from such a deep place in a real incongruent reaction to a certain situation that I was sure at the time that it must be based on a serious issue or deep hurt that needed to be healed. But through the assistance of Serge Benhayon and an Esoteric Practitioner I was able to understand that it was actually me who was creating this issue to not take on the responsibility of simply being me to the fullest and allowing the world to see that on a daily basis. Contracting away under the excuse of “I have this emotional issue I have to deal with first” was a kind of game I was playing with myself at the time.
Thank you for this inspirational sharing of the start of your journey Jenny. This blog will inspire many to do the same!
Before I came across the Universal Medicine modalities I was consumed with anxiety and stress, life feels very different now know that I am supported no matter what life throws at me.
What a fabulous article. It certainly does justice to the profound difference you notice between what Serge Benhayon offers as a practitioner and what the many other complementary/alternative practitioners offer. The healing is very specific and unique for each individual and the depth of understanding that he can support the client to come to, I have not experienced anywhere else. I have also found that registering something at the mind level never shifts anything for me. It is only when I feel it in my body that doors of understanding and acceptance open up and healing can begin to occur.
“the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing” – This totally flips the consultant-client or even doctor-patient, teacher-student relationships on their head. No matter how much we know, how we live is what makes the difference to what we can offer other people.
‘But more than this, it began a period of healing that was all encompassing and transformative involving every aspect of my life.’ The chain of change which is begun from true healing is never ending – all we have to do is keep choosing it.
Jenny, this is amazing to read how this transformation in your life came about and I can also feel that this has profoundly influenced you in the way that you now support others around you with illness and disease, and as a result you are bringing far more depth and healing to people because of what you have gone through and have an understanding of.
Yes, I had homeopathy twice in my life and I could feel no change either time.
Yes no surprise Christoph, I spent many months with a well-known homeopath during my college years, while I was studying it I might add, attempting to address a life-long issue with eczema. To no avail either… which fortunately left me completely disillusioned with the modality and hence never attempted to practise it nor try it myself again in the 15 years that followed of naturopathic practise.
It is a very distinct experience when an ailment, whether physical or mental, simply resolves itself for good rather than us getting relief – for a while. Even while we get the relief we are aware that something remains and will recur but if it resolves, then it is gone for good unless we actively work on restoring the ailment.
Jennifer what a great confirmation of the changes you’ve made. As you say “Life today bears no resemblance to life back then, with enormous healing evident in every aspect of my life.” the same for myself.
You share here it takes an illness or disease for people to seek true healing, and I also see this as the case. But in this we have fought the truth up until the point our bodies have no choice but to show us something deeper. Healing can be an ongoing support rather than a remedy to healing because ultimately it is not just about fixing an illness.
Let us just consider this for a moment – because it makes me marvel at the body. Here is an illness that you had been carrying for a number of years and yet, as soon as you open the door on the root cause and release the hurt/emotion/issue that was causing the dis-ease, the body then recalibrates, heals and rejuvenates in just a couple of weeks. It reminds me to be more in awe of my body.
Yes remarkable I agree… though not a patch on the magnificence of the being it houses however and what is possible by way of physical function when we heal enough to allow it to be running the show.
A vehicle of God, that belongs to God, through which God can serve.
I feel this is true Gill. As the cracks get wider and deeper, more and more people are seeing that we have strayed a very long way from our truth. And thus, any one of us who might be able to offer even the smallest kernel of truth has a responsibility to do so and will often be met by the surprisingly open heart of a fellow searching student of life.
“the pneumonia resolved within days and my weight restored within a few weeks of that.” A short sentence that can easily be glossed over but this morning it has paused me. I mean – wow!!!
Good on you Jennifer for being open enough to see that the naturopath and acupuncturist route was not for you. It is very easy once involved in those sorts of things to be open to what is there that may be greater.
I have not come across anyone who has offered such a depth of wisdom around illness, disease and healing, as has Serge Benhayon. As with every other area of life, in these areas too he inspires immense understanding, responsibility and empowerment.
Couldn’t agree more Golnaz, and I have been around the complementary healing-traps for 30 years! He leaves the rest for dust.
Serge feels different because he is different. Not in essence or by design, but by movement and alignment.
I can remember clearly meeting Serge Benhayon for the first time Jenny and I too would use the word ‘unassuming’, and yet consummately professional to describe him. I knew I could trust this man and that he was with me, not against me – I knew I could say whatever I wanted or needed to say and would not be judged. And when I received healing it felt like pure heaven. I remember getting off the healing table and saying ‘You’re the best healer I have ever met!’ How he must have smiled to himself!
The tender, respectful and very precise way Serge Benhayon is able to connect with us and explicitly understand everything we have been through in our lives, and then sum it up in a few sentences is mind blowing. The depth of understanding and compassion returns to us a true comprehension of what it is we are missing within ourselves, why our health and wellbeing has been so compromised and how we can begin to genuinely address it. The fact that such a long term illness resolved itself so quickly after your session Jenny is no surprise to me, having experienced the speedy resolution of long term issues myself as a consequence of Serge’s healing sessions, but in the current climate we are living in today, it is without a doubt an absolute miracle.
I wholeheartedly concur with what you say Rowena about Serge Benhayon.
Even when it is not possible for a long term issue to be resolved completely, as in the case of the scoliosis bend and twist of my spine, the depth of awareness about the factors in life that precipitate such issues, the understanding of our own responsibility as part of the scenario, and also the whole learning and healing of patterns we may have held for perhaps lifetimes, are all absolutely invaluable.
Yes Rowena it is commonplace amongst the students of Universal Medicine, in fact I have yet to meet someone who doesn’t have a story that shows a similarly remarkable turnaround in some aspect of health or well-being.
What a beautiful sharing Jenny I love reading it and resonate with the true healing you were offered from meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. It is deep ,magical and the most profound experience and way of living that feels so known and lived from deeply from within.
I knew there was more to life than meets the eye, but until I met Serge there was no one I had ever met that could explain truly what that something was.
As long as we are looking at life only through our eyes, we will never see the ‘more’.
Yes, I can relate to what you share… knowing there was more to life, and that it wasn’t until meeting Serge Benhayon and attending a Universal Medicine course that I discovered that aspect, the ‘More’ , that I knew had to exist somewhere… and this was within me… Stillness / Love so grand and expansive that it stopped me in my tracks.
Jennifer what you have shared had deeply touched me. “it is human nature or so it would seem, to live our lives as mere physical beings without awareness of the greater dimensions of who we are, until life reminds us through the marker of our bodies and through healing that there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…” My own experience is that this greater dimension is never tired to remind through my body that there is more and I have to admit that I am really appreciating this fact.
Our bodies are amazing and life presents us with exactly what we need. I love your deep honesty in saying you would not have gone to see Serge if you’re not been at a point where everything else you’d tried wasn’t working, there’s such a humbleness and a great reflection in this for all of us. Life’s challenges whatever they may be offer us stop moments to consider how we are, how we live and if our ‘ways’ in fact support us or now to be all we are.
Wow what a sharing and what a change. This blog celebrates your appreciation for Serge Benhayon, and how you deepened your relationship with healing. i love what you share about a practitioner only able to offer to heal another as deeply as they have healed themselves. This makes so much sense.
Very true HM, it does celebrate my appreciation for Serge Benhayon absolutely, which is as vast as his wisdom. I shudder to think what the trajectory of my life would have been and where l’d be now if not for meeting him that day.
Reincarnation, Pranic Energy and the Astral Plane are subjects many of us have no knowledge of or are misinformed, confused, and disturbed by. When Serge Benhayon talks about them everything makes sense and we have a greater understanding of what is going on in our lives. He helps us to let go of any victim mentality and to understand that absolutely everything that happens in our lives is the result of our choices and it is up to us to take responsibility for the imprints we leave behind in everything we do.
“The crying then never released the feelings, only relieved them… until the next time.” A powerful distinction here Jenny between relieving something and releasing something. Reading this today I was reminded of the deep sadness I lived with for so long, and big (and little) cries would provide relief, but never really released the hurt from within. Universal Medicine’s healing modalities and the integrity and dedication in which practitioners of these modalities live their lives, and the choice to heal from the client, are a power-full combination to start releasing the tensions and hurts we hold in our bodies.
Great distinction here between release and relief, Sarah! Amazing to feel how powerful one can be and how limiting the other can be.
What Serge Benhayon teaches us is that the stillness you mention Jennifer, is already there inside us, and reconnecting with this stillness enables healing to take place.. We no longer have to seek healing from a”saviour” as we now know the capacity within us to heal ourselves.
“Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality. It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.
l’d never put these things together, understanding ‘walk your talk’ as meaning simply that I ate well, took vitamins, exercised and went to bed at a decent time.”
This is a big pill to swallow as a Naturopath and health care practitioner! I have had to sit with this one and really look at what true healing is and how much does Naturopathy in all its capacity offer true support in healing – and I know it can play an amazing role in supporting a body back to health but therein lies the dangers of avoiding the truth of the matter at hand of what the body is actually going through – in other words, if we do not seek to find the cause of the illness then no matter what natural therapies we choose to apply (supplements, super foods, exercise etc), then the root cause will still remain within. Hence the importance of working with the client and reading exactly what will and will not be of support to them, and as you have shared Jenny, the choice to keep going deeper with the understanding of our own healing as a therapist.
Absolutely amazing blog and sharing of your experience Jenny – this is very profound and more so because of your background in Natural Medicine and how you understand that we might tick all the boxes that natural medicine says are important from a ‘holistic’ perspective but it is still not a complete picture without the true understanding of what is happening in the background. This true perspective, thankfully was available with Serge Benhayon and the Esoteric modalities. What a blessing that shows where true healing and health actually lies – not in the box ticking and supplements approach, but in the understanding of the energetics of illness, disease and… life and vitality.
And the way Jennifer embraces the opportunity that her recurring pneumonia offered… this is a super inspiring way to approach the signs and symptoms of our bodies.
A true miracle in this world, is the blessing to remember who we are. Illness is not a curse or a punishment but a gift that is bestowed upon us by a deeper part of us that wants to live truly. I was chatting to a young staff member recently and asked if he still smoked pot, he said that he can no longer smoke it, that his lungs will not let him, he coughs up blood when he tries. I told him his body was looking out for him, he said that it was the best problem to have, for he wanted to quit anyhow.
This might be an obvious example but we all have things that we do or ways we behave that are untrue and the body is the marker of all truth and so, it has our back so to speak. In your case Jenny, pneumonia was what was needed to humble you enough to seek support yourself, rather than endlessly give from a place of emptiness.
“I can only liken it to having the deepest itch scratched for the first time. And yet it was distinctly familiar too, I felt completely and utterly myself.” This is a brilliant way to describe the exact feeling that I had for so much of my life. An absolute knowing that there was, must be, had to be more to life than what I was living – and yet not being quite sure what that was, where it was or how to access it. Serge Benhayon has shown me the answers to all these questions….and a WHOLE lot more!!
The fact that you remember the exact date when you first met Serge Benhayon says it all.
Thank you Jennifer. There is much to all that you are saying – a book would be suffice to cover off and go into the depths and vastness of detail of ‘all that is’. For without knowing all that is healing can be guaranteed not to occur and we are still stuck in the cycle of burying it away thinking we have ‘moved on’. Universal Medicine provides such truth called the ‘what is’ and the ‘what is not’.
A miracle story, but one that is possible for us all. All it takes is our willingness to heal as it what we have not healed that holds us in certain behaviours and patterns.
The saying yes to what is our potential than builds the foundations that you have shared so beautifully in this blog. Thank you!
‘it began a period of healing that was all encompassing and transformative involving every aspect of my life.’ yes that has been my experience of the Universal Medicine therapies too. It brought a hugely deeper true meaning and experience of the word healing.
“….. while my mind could say ‘yes that makes sense’, it was within my body that I was registering the truth of what I’d heard.” When real Truth is presented to us we know it from and with our body and not our head and that is different.
I loved reading this Jenny. There’s is nothing more powerful than someone’s lived experience.
Yes, I agree, Lucy… it is both inspiring and a privilege to hear other people’s experiences. Thank you for sharing, Jennifer.
The esoteric therapies as taught by Serge Benhayon enable us to release very deeply held hurts, issues, ideals and beliefs that all affect our body and our movements.
A garbage dump that our bodies have been crying out for; it is only our indulgent attachment to self that is keeping us bound to these shackles.
It seems that very often, for many people, it is not until every other avenue has been tried and exhausted, that Serge Benhayon and the therapies offered by Universal Medicine are a last resort. But what a resort! Forget paradise…what Serge and the practitioners of these modalities offer is absolute truth, and a re-connection to Heaven and the Divine beings that we are and where we come from. This is indeed true healing, and is not simply for us as individuals, but offers so much equally for all of humanity.
‘There is more to life than we are willing to see’.. when we start to really feel that life as we’re currently living it, isn’t working for us – that surely, there must be more – we start to see other possibilities of the ‘more’. Part of this ‘more’ is the deeper connection to and knowing of one’s self, and all others, and a deeper connection to the whole – knowing that we are part of something much bigger than ourselves, i.e. the whole universe. To know and to feel that there is a greater depth to life is a beautiful thing, because it never gets boring – there is always more to learn, more to feel, more to embrace.
The best and truest healing is always super simple.
Thank you Jennifer, this is beautiful and powerful and profound. I am particularly touched by the distinction you give between release and relieve. This seems very important to know with regards to one’s own healing journey as it will help to discern what is happening and how deeply things are being addressed.
The definition of true healing; as relief is merely pushing the problem down the time-line.
True Otto, we are still a way off understanding what it means to push a condition deeper into the body, or ‘down the time-line’ as you put it. Making sense of the enormity of illness and disease as it rears it’s head increasingly, without apparent external cause, will be the start for contemplating with more honesty what exactly is at play and how we are actually designed energetically. It will mark a complete paradigm shift in medicine…
Do you feel that we are being pushed into this deeper understanding, or perhaps are already there? In that illness are becoming so complex and multi-symptomatic that the scientists, doctors and professionals are just having to accept that there is something ‘bigger’ going on. Is it fair to say that it is no longer tenable to be studying and treating what is happening to society’s health through the current linear thinking of much of medicine?
A relief just buries it deeper to then come up again somewhere else with more of an intensity as it has not been truly dealt with.
Yes spot on Shami, it is key. We are so inclined to call both ‘healing’ in the sense that we think both are equally legitimate as part of what it means to deal with a condition. There is a very big difference however, and relief of symptoms without a deepening of awareness, and a corresponding change in our choices, patterns and hence the way we live and interact, is actually devoid of healing.
I know if I am simply seeking relief then I know that I am not getting to the nub of the issue. If I am open to release then I know I am dealing with the block and am open to true healing. It is interesting how we can want to hang onto issues either through identification, because they are familiar, or because we are choosing not to expand.
I think the way we hold onto hurts and patterns is only proof that there is much more at play energetically. Otherwise it just doesn’t make sense how we repeat things that hurt us.
Agreed. If we are choosing to hold on to stuff that hurts we must be getting something out of it. The question is whether that something is worth it in the grander scheme of things. Once we have an inkling of what life could be like if we were to simply let go, we well may say, no – but in my own experience breaking these long held onto patterns is a slow process – the investment in that something having taken a hold.
Short term relief or long term release from behaviours that keep us cycling in unwellness (anything less than our full potential). This is a choice we always have and it is up to us whether we embrace the opportunities.
There are no frills with true healing and Serge Benhayon lives and presents this beautifully.
I will never forget the first session I had with Serge, I seriously did not want to leave for it was the first time in my life I had felt truly met and listened to. The experience was profound and I felt more like me than I can ever remember feeling.
As a practitioner although I did not smoke nor allow smoking in my house I was still drinking alcohol, and although I did not drink more than the recommended amount of units per week my drinks cupboard held a full array of wines and spirits and I did not consider that this “moderate” intake of alcohol could be harmful to me and energetically also my clients. I have learned, and am still learning such a lot about healing from Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. By freeing ourselves from old patterns and behaviours their is so much more of life to access. As we become more aware and explore the Way of the Livingness life opens up and the quality that we choose for ourselves and others naturally deepens.
We would do well to take responsibility for our own health worldwide… not only physically, but mentally, emotionally and energetically – then we will come to true and lasting healing as you did Jenny.
Yes, you only have to look at the state of the NHS in the UK to know that the way things are at the moment are not working. How much longer will we expect Dr’s and nurses to ‘fix’ us without taking responsibility for our part?
“.. He helped me see the nature of deeper unresolved feelings I was often aware of but had never quite been able to understand their origins,…” Your experience demonstrates how undealt, unaddressed emotions (that seemingly feel unconscious) are the root to illness and dis-ease in the body. Identifying the root issue is key to deconstruct and release the energetic holding pattern of dis-ease in the body.
“… while my mind could say ‘yes that makes sense’, it was within my body that I was registering the truth of what I’d heard…” This experience demonstrates how the human body is ‘The marker of Truth’ and that there are two possible ‘reasonings’ we have to choose from… Our body or our thoughts…
Bingo!… Your closing statement sums up the crossroad a human being stands upon… “it is human nature or so it would seem, to live our lives as mere physical beings without awareness of the greater dimensions of who we are, until life reminds us through the marker of our bodies and through healing that there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…”
What a super story and account Jennifer on every level. Although I did not have any medical condition, I too had a similar healing sense and absolute meeting of more than hearts when i first met Serge Benhayon 12 years ago now. I recall within a second of being with this man, being in his presence, how I felt home and without any mm of doubt felt an absoluteness; his absoluteness.. that his integrity was king.
That’s is a pretty powerful session!!!! What came to me reading this was we all, every single one of us, have the ability to completely meet another person like Serge Benhayon does. And when I say meet I do not say this lightly as from knowing Serge Benhayon for over 11 years and been met by him many times it is deeply holding and healing when he even addresses you by name. We all have the potential to be this with everyone we meet there is absolutely nothing to stop us living this and loving others as Serge Benhayon does.
Thank you Jenny – this blog was a delight to read! There were many points that stood out for me, but I found your words around supporting others to heal correlating with our own willingness to consider and address what is going on for us in our own lives very significant. How often do we want others to make changes in their lives, yet avoid looking at our own issues in the multidimensional way required to really ‘heal’ all that we are storing in our bodies?
It’s a great point that our physical body can actually be the thing that helps us to remember or more deeply appreciate that we are so much more than just physical and that calls us back to appreciating the fullness of the being that we are and our expression of this in life.
‘Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality.’ This is awesome – no longer simply deferring responsibility to a modality outside of us but being a part in how much healing it brings.
I love the way you have said here Jenny about your life now bearing no resemblance to the past. It is two different universes – one a reduced world of solutions and ‘fixit’ which mimics and distorts the true world , and the other, a spherical and multidimensional universe that can be lived here and now on this plane of being, a world of healing and true growth.
I too will never forget the first time that I met Serge Benhayon and had a healing session with him. I too found myself uncontrollably sobbing at the pure relief of being with someone who could see the true me. This was something that I had never felt before and from that day on I felt myself come alive inside as a sense of my own value and worth was re-ignited.
When I first met Serge too, little did I know how significant it would turn out to be. He comes with no bells and whistles – simply a beholding love that treats all as equals; someone who the more I know the more I am inspired by in the more of the awareness I develop through his reflection and The Ageless Wisdom Teachings.
I have had so many “yes that makes sense” moments since my first presentation from Serge Benhayon in 2005. Presentation after presentation the moments have kept on flowing leaving me with the realisation that to have experienced these moments I already knew, at some level, what Serge was presenting but had chosen to disconnect from this knowing. To have now reconnected to this inner wisdom and the healing that is always available to us, my life, like yours, has changed, and is still changing , in so many miraculous ways.
I agree Ingrid; and on subjects that I have almost no knowledge of, I find myself feeling the absolute truth of what he is presenting. His wisdom ignites my wisdom.
The responsibilities of offering a healing modality so beautifully defined in this piece – whereby the depth of healing a client can choose through seeing a practitioner is entirely dependent on the depth that they themselves (the practitioner) chooses to go to in their own healing.
I too have noticed that regardless of how miraculous or supportive what we are offered is, if our back is not already against the wall we tend to ignore it. The problem is that we also have a tendency to keep dropping the bar so in effect we tolerate more and more before we are ready to admit that all that our choices and foundations have not been working.
This brings a sobering understanding that rescuing one another out of our predicaments when they support us to keep plodding on the same path that got us to that point in the same place, might not be a true answer. It can be simply helping us prolong engraining the behaviour that got us to the disharmonious place in the first place.
What struck me right from the beginning when I attended Universal Medicine workshops was the foundation of recognising that none of us are weak, needy or incapable of dealing with what is in front of us. Part of the immense healing I have received has been the reminder, recognition and confirmation of the awareness, love, wisdom and power that is within me as is equally in everyone else.
I love what you share here Jennifer about feeling that life took on a new dimension. I feel sure this is accurate and that we are in truth more than physical beings. In fact find it very likely that we are multi-dimensional beings. The reconnection to these deeper dimensions awakens when we reconnect to ourselves – as you have clearly done.
‘We simply talked, for no more than 30 minutes initially but in that time we seemed to have encompassed my life in such a way that my situation made complete sense.’ I have experienced something similar, whereby I spoke to Serge for around 5 minutes about something and what was presented back to me made complete sense compared to the complicated and long winded advice I had been given from so many others.
Beautiful testimony to Serge Benhayon, Universal Medicine and the power of true healing Jennifer. Healing can only ever occur when we reconnect with ourself on a deep level. It is the feeling of ‘coming home’ in that reconnection that is the true healing.
‘For the first time I knew I understood the relationship of these feelings to the condition I was suffering.’ To make the link between our emotions being the root cause of our illnesses is a profound revealed truth. When registered and accepted it allows for a whole different relationship with being ill and healing.
It is impossible to resent being ill when we know that we caused it, so rather than seeing it as a burden there is an opportunity to see it as an offering of healing. It is our choice as to whether we are truly honest about why any specific ill has manifested in the body, but it is important to do this without any judgment and a whole heap of understanding. As you share here Jenny when this is all applied ill conditions can shift miraculously!
Jenny your sharing tells of the richness that is healing. Even though the condition itself never returned, the healing that took place was at a much deeper level, evidenced by the profound changes that has occurred in your life. Healing is never just one thing. It has many deepening layers.
It brought my life and the world in a completely different perspective since I allowed myself to admit the greater dimensions of the unity where we really come from and just how much more there is to us than meets the eye. Just like our world is not flat, nor are we 3 dimensional being, we are all multidimensional.
Thank you for sharing the miracle of your healing and your honesty in admitting that if it had not been for the severity of your condition and the failure to find relief by any other means you may never have made that first appointment. It is awesome that you did and the benefits not just for yourself but also for all your clients are clear.
Illness and disease have a way of making us stop and become more honest about our lives and how we are living them and give us an opportunity to start seeking true answers.
I love the way you describe the healing you received as reaching an itch that needed scratching. Esoteric healing goes very deep and really reaches the core of the problem. It feels like you were breathed back to life.
Rebecca that is so true, its the only thing I’ve ever felt that allows me to connect to and heal the very route of what is not me to unlock more of me that has always been there, just locked away or covered up.
“It is easy to throw the word healing around but my experience on that day was nothing short of miraculous and changed not only the trajectory of my life in every way, but forever changed my understanding of what healing actually entails.” Likewise Jenny. Thank you for a very astute description that mirrors so many people’s experience including my own, when first meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. What is offered to us here is not a pill, potion or remedy, but a connection back to our inherent multi-dimensional expression and consequently the massive understanding of how our emotions play havoc with our bodies if left un-checked. ‘Walking our talk’ goes so much deeper than we think. It entails every part of our selves, physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aligning with the quality of our movements, a simple act that can take a life time to master and a completely life changing experience when we meet and observe it within Serge Benhayon.
“It was an exchange of sorts, whereby the depth of healing a client could choose through seeing me was entirely dependent on the depth that I had chosen to go to in my own healing.” This turns on its head the common approach to healing by all other modalities, complimentary or orthodox, where the level of healing for client is perceived as being determined by the level of knowledge of the practitioner to ‘fix’ the problem for the client.
Like you Jenny, i can say that through Serge Benhayon and experiencing Universal medicine I truly healed myself, Not from any specific illness, but from an underlying malaise, lack of self worth, feeling less and where nothing seemed to work. At one time I even asked an Esoteric Practitioner ‘Will I ever feel different? ‘will I be healed?’ Over the years, with dedication to self and trust, (never trying to get somewhere) I’ve come home to myself.and can say I’m truly healed of all beliefs, hurts, blocks, and most patterns that kept me from being my self and living life fully.
Serge Benhayon reflects to the world through the consistency of his living way, the absolute grandness that we are all from and returning to fully at some point in our evolution. This is not some airy-fairy-concept, but a truth knowing of the fact that we are all (equally so) multi-dimensional Beings and Sons of God remembering to be in obedience to the natural Universal Laws, rhythms and cycles of the Universe.
“it is human nature or so it would seem, to live our lives as mere physical beings without awareness of the greater dimensions of who we are, until life reminds us through the marker of our bodies and through healing that there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…”
No matter what walk of life we come from or how much we own or don’t own or if we have stacks of cash or we don’t, unless we can heal what is there to be healed there will always be something missing or there will be that itch that we just can’t scratch. And I can’t think of anyone I have met or heard about that doesn’t need healing whether they know it or not, or like it or not.
All of us imperfect students of life. No judgement, no comparison, no better or worse.
I can vouch that it is through the absolute surrender of the body that we bring about release and the glorious stillness and joy that then naturally follows. Unless I am willing to surrender to the grandness of something much bigger than myself then I will, what I may feel like, be forever stuck in the momentum of my ill-ways.
You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink, is apt for Esoteric Healing! One must accept our part and responsibility in the healing process by choosing to surrender.
What a brilliant example and explanation of the truth behind true healing Jennifer, there certainly is a breaking point that we commonly come to before we seek to bring healing to ourselves and without any judgement, is exposing of the fact that we wait or delay ourselves from accessing something deep within us that is always, always there.
Jenny this blog is powerful, profound and deeply inspiring. What an absolute joy to read.
“It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.” This is so true. But what if we used this combination of treatments as a way of preventing or at least delaying and lessening the symptoms of a serious illness or disease by dealing with the underlying problems that cause them before they take a hold in the body?
It’s amazing to be able to retrace our current health to the root cause – this is something that our health systems desperately require.
‘I was left with a profound sense of warmth radiating from my lungs and heart, a feeling of love that imbued my whole body and a sense that I was distinctly at home’. There is nothing more beautiful than to feel this warm radiation of love and life from one’s body,especially around the lungs and also the front digestive area of the body. but as I say that, there is also nothing more wonderful than feeling one’s hands and feet alive with love.
To get to an understanding of the root cause of a condition breaks through the limitations of the consciousness we have so normalised around illness and disease. Before I met Serge Benhayon, like everyone else, I felt that conditions simply manifested and I felt like a victim of them. To understand that they occur because of the way I choose to react to life has meant a deeper awareness of the daily responsibility I have in how I live and the choices I make. However, whenever an awareness drops in around why something may be happening in my body I am always truly appreciative.
This article is extremely well written and expressed. The quality and change that occurred all those years ago, is evident in the quality this blog has been delivered in. I had a similar experience after a session with Serge Benhayon and yet I have always been uncomfortable trying to explain it out of fear of being perceived as some kind of sycophant, (which I know sounds ridiculous, because I am totally not that). What I loved about your story, is you explain in depth that the choice to heal came from within you, it came because you had reached a point of actually wanting to know the truth. Through illness, you had been humbled to know that life, did not quite add up in the way we were told…. I mean, you were ticking every box and yet you were suffering a condition that you could not solve. This is an article I will share with many, it is empowered, honouring and appreciative, without an ounce of weird or worship.
Jennifer what you nail for me here is the fact that through what Serge presents, lives and inspires in others is true healing. Not covering up or fixing issues but true, deep healing on more levels than we can imagine. For me, I went from existing in life to living life.
You explained “being met” for the first time in terms everyone can get a feel for “…. seen in a way l’d not been seen before.” and “…..I can only liken to having the deepest itch scratched for the first time.” So simple, thanks for your simplicity of presenting wisdom.
“Being met” is what many people have shared about Serge Benhayon. Often the words are simple yet powerful in bringing out the essence that is felt from within when one is truly being connected to for who they are free from the ideals and beliefs that often limit our acceptance of ourselves in the world.
Wow Jenny this is one of the most powerful blogs I have ever read. You clearly explain from a practising Health Worker’s point of view what walking your talk truly means i.e. lived quality. Just about every sentence you wrote I felt to respond to…. You have easily and practically laid out why the way Serge Benhayon introduced healing back in 1998 would turn the idea we had of health on its head, clearly, step by step. I have never seen this done before so that other people working in the health industry could fully understand the difference between what they studied and what Serge has presented to the world, amazing Jenny!!!
Jennifer this is absolutely key ‘my own healing was pivotal to what I was able to offer clients in their respective healing’ and this is because most healers are such a long way from being truly healed themselves and therefore unable to offer true healing to another.
I have read so many accounts of people meeting Serge Benhayon where they describe how they felt ‘deeply met’ when meeting him. It seems such a simple thing, to ‘meet another’ and yet we are rarely truly met by another and the reason being is because hardly any of us have truly met ourselves and it’s not possible to meet another without meeting ourselves first.
One of the great realisations I have through presentations and healing offered by Serge Benhayon is the point you raise: something in my health motivates me to go deeper with-in, to understand and care for myself. Care and understanding are fundamentals – priority no.1 of life, not back ups when all else fails.
We are so caught up in the external part of our lives and putting so much focus on it so that we can feel a sense of relief, distraction and even numbing from those areas of our life that we deem as less enjoyable, and through that, hardly ever consider our bodies and what we put them through until the crunch comes and then we may sit up and take notice only because whatever issue brings a halt to our distractions. When we can start to really accept that these things are there to bring us back to us and move through them with this focus, this will support our bodies no end.
I have felt many times that feeling of release in all of the Sacred Esoteric Healing modalities that Serge Benhayon presents. Afterwards I feel much lighter and warmer in my body and being. This has shown me that if physical conditions clear up but not the energetic root I can still feel heavy. If the energetic root has gone but the condition remains I am more open to working with and supporting my body without the emotional loading.
‘It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.’
This applies on an individual level and for us as a group. Our body and our surroundings communicate loud and clear that things are not the way they should and can be and if we don’t listen then we get offered a ‘stop moment’ and learn from there.
I love what you say about healing being an exchange of some sort – where not only the skills and whatever the practitioner delivers within a clinic room, but everything about them matters. And in that word ‘exchange’ I feel your appreciation for absolute equalness which is so exquisite.
Connecting to our essence allows us to be a part of True healing and when it is so simple to apply the techniques presented by Serge Benhayon we all can be involved in this level of Truth that works hand in hand with conventional medicine. Then we can benefit from the healing, which is available from Universal Medicine along with other modalities.
There is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…when we truly wish to acknowledge this fact, so much will change for so many because the space that will open up will bring great change.
We are only just scratching the surface of the link between emotions and illness and disease.
What an amazing account and testimony to the power of true healing and how much we can heal when we are open to considering all possibilities.
A beautiful blog Jenny. How could anyone not be inspired by this? Your healing is miraculous but at the same time very normal.
I love how you share that healing goes deeper than we first perceive it to be. ‘Healing was no longer about being clever enough to know the right remedy or modality.’ Your healing experience with Serge Benhayon shows healing is far more than this. Clearly your life turned around from this encounter and your experience was powerful. A very inspiring sharing.
It is an amazing confirmation when we are prepared to feel that ‘there is more to us than meets the eye…’. Throughout life I have had inklings that there was something more than the physicality of life and the functional way of living and yet I travailed many different paths before I met Serge Benhayon. Even after that I have had moments of resistance but the sense of what he presents feels true and resonates within. Learning to trust this wisdom within is gradually informing the way I now live life as I replace old patterns with a deeper sense of trust that I am enough.
Beautiful Jenny. Such an eloquent, heartfelt sharing of so much: your personal journey of healing, what true healing is, the quality of Serge Benhayon, how in most cases it is in only in dire straits that leads one to true healing and more. thank you.
Nicely put Elizabeth, I have never thought of it like that before, but it fits perfectly. Often I have pondered on the fact that we can live this life as if sleepwalking or we can be fully engaged and wide awake, and what Serge is showing us is that we can get out of the sleepwalking state and that there is so much more to life.
It is certainly my experience that since learning about the importance of the relationship with myself and of self-love, my life feels like another life from the one I had before. In this way I can absolutely relate to the sense of what went before feeling like a ‘past life’ – this is precisely what it feels like. Who was I back then? What was ‘running’ me? We say ‘life begins at 40’. Perhaps it is more accurate to say that a true life of ‘livingness’ begins when we make the choice to have a self-loving relationship – whatever age that may be.
I felt connected to myself in a way that was on the one hand so familiar, I felt ‘home’. I felt at home reading this blog.
Beautiful Jenny. We feel you as you share your journey towards healing. As you say, healing is a word much bandied around and almost lost its meaning, you confirm what true healing is and how it impacts on those we work with, clients or otherwise.
I agree kehinde2012. It’s been forgotten with the way healing is referred to now that the way we live is healing and medicine in itself and this is where the richness of healing comes from as we explore and learn about the quality of our living and the effect that this has on our being.
Yes Jennifer, healing is often referred to as something done to and for us. When we take responsibility for how we live and make that our medicine, the quality of our life changes. To shift away from the paradigm of fix me (after the ill-condition presents) to lovingly care for my body in every moment, this is when we experience the ‘richness of healing’.
“forever changed my understanding of what healing actually entails.” A Sacred Esoteric Healing session with Serge Benhayon offers an opportunity to heal our underlying hurts and to reconnect within our body as to who we truly are.
Totally amazing blog Jennifer, a true miracle to be hold. I shall never forget my first ever session with Serge, I had no illness but I realised that day that I was far from being well and the way I was living would end badly if I didn’t change and see the truth that was on offer.
Yes, I absolutely concur that it is through the way I live, my livingness that offers healing to clients. I can go on courses one after the other, gain the knowledge, look good, dress well and speak in what society regards as intelligent but if I am not willing to look at the way I live then how on earth can I truly support another? It has to begin with me and my own healing.
Love this blog, Jenny! I have often felt energetic releases from my body during esoteric healing sessions and each time I do I am in wonder of the miracle of it, whilst at the same time, it feels entirely normal. To have an awareness now that any condition in my body stems from my reactions to the world makes entire sense and that it is my responsibility to live in such a way where reactions diminish by living from a more solid foundation of self-worth and self-nurture. This leaves more space to respond to life without getting sick.
Reincarnation has small print that we don’t get to remember our past, as one of the conditions. I, as the growing numbers of others that can also now, say ‘my previous life’ is well remembered from this life, because of simple methods of healing ourselves that have been presented by Serge Benhayon.
Life-changing moment in your life in which you were ready for the healing and then, this came to you
We can bombard our bodies with many ideals and beliefs about life and with that lose our purpose and the fact that we are so much more than what we can see with the eye. True healing will help us to clear our bodies from these ideals and beliefs and with that we do reconnect to the ageless wisdom that it naturally is connected to.
A completely beautiful blog Jennifer about the magnificent healing of lifetimes of disease and stuck conditions that is available to us all, no matter who. Your experience bears a very close resemblance to my first experience with Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon – just incredible, life-changing and the beginning of a new way of living. Thank you.
So beautifully expressed Jennifer, in a way that only comes from lived experience. That’s the beautiful thing about what Serge Benhayon shares too – it’s all just a result of what he knows is the truth. I love how you make it clear that the greatest way we ever learn is from the illnesses we have and each disease. For when we embrace them as helpful messages from God, not inconvenient obstacles in our way, we start to see the truth of our existence here and our divinity.
‘I felt connected to myself in a way that was on the one hand so familiar, I felt ‘home’ and yet I didn’t ever recall feeling that way before. This feels like not needing to know the detail just feeling the truth though the quality.
To feel the warmth returning to our bodies is such a beautiful reminder that we separated from who we truly are and that the body wears that choice.
“I can liken to experiencing life in color suddenly after only ever experiencing it in black and white” – we are the ones who choose to de-colourise life and our environment, almost always in reaction to what we are truly seeing in the world, but we can support one another to appreciate this awareness and use it to understand WHY life is the way it is, and evolve humanity out of its issues and creations.
Coming home …
Sometimes we get so focused on our feet, we forget to look up and see that there are stars that guide our way.
Ahhhhh – thank you Liane for this beautiful reminder that there is that which is so vast and grand that is always guiding our way, but often unremembered.
Amazing turnaround Jenny and a testament to how simple true healing is when we are willing to be open, honest and transparent with what led us to the illness in the first place. If separating from the love we innately are is the root cause of all illness and disease, then it follows a reunion with this love is the way to increased health and vitality. That is, there comes a time in our life where we simply make the choice to come home to the love in our hearts and then allow this love to inform and inspire every move made forth from this point to the best of our human capability.
Healing is something we can all offer in every moment, it is most certainly not an exclusivity.
An exquisite blog Jennifer and a powerful testament to the depth of healing that is offered through Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. What is so beautifully highlighted here is that healing is not just about ‘fixing’ or ‘alleviating’ an ailment, illness or disease but more so about deeply understanding why we choose patterns of behaviour and emotions that have us move in way that contradict our natural state well-being and vitality, and who we really are. It is about understanding that true healing can only come through for initiating for oneself the will to heal, to be willing to see the truth of how we are living and to honour the truth we feel. As such, we then can truly free ourselves from the patterns of behaviour and emotions that affect every aspect of our lives and drive us into the ground, so to speak, returning us to live in greater connection to who we really are. The depth of healing offered for us to initiate for ourselves, through Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine, is a continual inspiring reflection and revelation of the depth of who we are in essence. One that is always offering an eternal reminder that – ‘…there is more to life than we are choosing to see and there is more to us than meets the eye…’
Wow, that’s an amazing story Jennifer! I love that you talk about everything that was going on in your body for the illness to be as it was, and that it wasn’t just a matter of some man claiming to be a healer, putting his hands on you and voila. There is clearly so much for us to be aware of and responsible for before we can be open to clearing it all, making us the facilitator of the healing.
True healing supports us to get rid of what is in the way, of what doesn’t belong and never is it the craftiness or expertise of a practitioner imposing their dexterity or being invested in the outcome.
A total joy to read, I was with you the whole way, loving the way you have encapsulated something that is so immensely profound. Thank you!
A testimonial about resurrection in the truest sense Jenny Ellis! To be met in a way that leads to understanding the truth about ourselves is gifted to us through the way in which Serge Benhayon lives, reminding us that our ‘home’ place is waiting there within to be embraced. A magnificent and inspiring account of true healing that then can be reflected to others. Yes true resurrection!
Thank you for introducing the word resurrection Bernadette, as indeed that is what true healing brings. It helps us to remove all that does not belong to us and with that the true beauty of us being multidimensional beings is revealed and resurrected to its divine state.
What I love about this blog is the fact that the healing experienced was about releasing energy and thus reconnecting to what we hold within and not about taking away the symptoms or illness. The release of the physical symptoms is therefore not the goal but the consequence of the deeper healing that took place.
A healer is not someone that heals another but someone who has healed enough within themselves to offer a vibration to the client that can then, by alignment, heal themselves. This is an important point that once truly understood will bring deep understanding to what healing in truth is.
Yes, it was quite amazing how aware Jennifer was of the process as it was happening.
Beautiful blog Jenny, Thankyou for sharing. I love hearing how people met Serge and the transformations thereafter.
I also had a great sense of coming home (at last) when I met Serge Benhayon for the first time in 2004 and my life has changed (and continues to do so) beyond measure since then. One of the countless beautiful things about meeting Serge is that this healing does not create any dependence because it triggers a meeting with oneself as it is in the reconnection with our own essence that the deep healing happens which in turns offers that by reflection to others.
Most people remember their first meeting with Serge Benhayon as a life changing event. It is amazing how he immediately touches both our hearts and the heart of the matter and the deep healing that offers.
“I registered that while my mind could say ‘yes that makes sense’, it was within my body that I was registering the truth of what I’d heard.” I know this feeling, that often with what Serge shares I don’t fully understand it technically but in my body there is such a feeling of knowing what he is talking about that there is no doubt that what he is sharing is making sense. This really opened me up to the understanding that we can understand things with our mind through recall but that there is way much more we can know through our bodies and what we feel.
I agree Jane every movement and everything we do has the quality we have connected to as it’s origin.
‘I jokingly refer to the distinction of the way life felt before that appointment as being of ‘my previous life’.
Same goes for me: I refer to a life before and a life after meeting Serge Benhayon and life has only changed for the better since this meeting.
True healing touches us very deeply – as long as we allow it to. It is never just about addressing symptoms, but supporting fundamental change that offers a new way forth in life.
That line stands out for me as well and hits at our responsibility in everything we do. If we are not liking what we are seeing or the things that are happening around us aren’t supporting us then it’s up to us to make the change and not to wait for something to change. The world can only go to depth we are willing to go ourselves. There is much much more for us to begin again to see.
A powerful testimonial to what can be seen and healed if you are at the point where you are ready for it. As this article is saying, “It is also the case that we seldom seek this level of healing in our lives unless we are faced with serious illness or calamity of some sort.” Which I would agree and was the case for me. It was almost like until you hit rock bottom in a way in some area are you then ready to look for an answer to what’s going on somewhere different.
I have read many blogs, many on this website that do not hold back the benefits to their health, wellness, wisdom and vitality that they now experience in their lives since meeting Serge Benhayon and choosing to live again from the truth of their own bodies and the awareness that it holds. Why is it that such obvious benifits to the world as a whole is not being broadcast around the world? Because it should be.
Meeting Serge Benhayon triggered within the call to connect to my soul, that had been felt, but I was unable to allow. Life changing is an understatement and I fully understand the statement made here about life before meeting Serge being a ‘previous life’.
