HEALING

Healing can come in a great many ways. Most people think of healing coming from a doctor now.
But he's not the only one that can show you how. Relaxes you and makes you feel good, as you should be.
Moving your bones seems silly but sometimes it does work.
Working on your spine or cracking your neck with a quick jerk.
Moving energy in your body in many different ways.
Some old, some new, ones that really deserve praise.
Herbal and natural remedies, most of these we can use.
They help most disease but be careful, do not abuse.
Talking to someone to release your fears that you hide.
You have to rid yourself of them, you can't keep them inside.
Looking at nature, the beauty that God made for us.
Fills you with awe and love and you give Him A-plus.
Color, light, chrystals, sound, these all can help you.
Along with many others, just figure out what to do.
But the biggest healer of all is yor mind.
Prayer, meditation, affirmations, things of that kind.
Will help you to heal yourself, inside and out.
Just believe in God and yourself, let there be no doubt.
Then if it is needed you can be healed for good.
Just trust in God and yourself and try to do as you should.
