Entering higher levels of consciousness through spontaneous healing episodes (which might feel like a dark night of the soul!)
As a collective, we are experiencing dramatic global shifts in consciousness. For this to happen, many of us will experience periodic spontaneous healing episodes to help raise our consciousness to a higher level.
What is a spontaneous healing episode?
A spontaneous healing episode is where seemingly out of the blue, we experience consciousness ‘cleansing’ outside of the usual healing modalities we go to. This intense experience seems to be becoming more common due to the mass shift in consciousness which is why I wanted to explore it with you, to help give clarity if you are going through this experience!
Why do they happen?
These spontaneous healing episodes can happen for different reasons, here are some:
To shift you to another level of conscious
To open up psychic abilities or awareness
To clear dark entities and / or purify and clear karma
Your higher self has agreed to an intense healing / clearing for a period
It is part of the collective shift in consciousness on earth at this time, so on.
More specific examples:
Clearing personal trauma
You have agreed to clear some collective family trauma, from past lives
You have been ignoring the inner work required and now your guides are hitting you with a mass clear out to catch up
To be emotionally prepared for an ‘up levelling’, in response to the next leg of your journey, releasing fears before they are triggered (my most recent one)
Where does it come from?
Your higher self has agreed to this healing experience. It is a quick way of experiencing transformational shifts in consciousness quickly; however, it's uncomfortable to go through.
Your spirit guides or helpers and Source are doing the work. You are not consciously involved in this process or in the planning of it. It is very much happening to you!
What does it feel like?
This isn’t an experience you can ignore because it's very intense! You are there one day sitting, minding your own business and the next, going through a cosmic consciousness ‘car wash’. Blasted and scrubbed repeatedly energetically until beautifully clean. You can’t escape, you just need to move through it to get to the other side...
Spontaneous transformations can be deeply uncomfortable - at times they can feel very frightening as well. From my experience and that of recent clients it can feel like…
You're being blasted with a jet engine, with intense amounts of energy surging through you - all you can do is to breathe through it. For me it's like being in an energetic washing machine.
You can't settle to get to sleep
You're being turned upside down and feel dizzy.
You’re about to ‘blow a gasket’ or as though you’re going mad.
Your shaky, or hit suddenly with anxiety, discomfort and doubt, feeling very unsteady
An uncomfortable feeling, emotional, anxiousness, doubting - for no reason, in the current
You’re split between worlds, that of the practical and this emotional, spiritual experience which is unfolding internally and is distracting
You’re tired as the process is consuming a lot of focus and energy
Conflicting or unhealed parts of your self might be being pushed up to be resolved, to be looked at and released - but in the rush it might just feel confusing and unclear
There are two versions of yourself coexisting at present as past fears release and your future self rises. You may even have visions of the past, or of the future
How long does it take?
It depends…
For many of us, when it happens it might be for a few weeks or it can be a few months, maybe even up to 6 months. It really depends on what you've agreed to clear via your higher self.
My personal trauma clearing took a year and a half and was incredibly intense during that whole time. Whenever I have an intense clearing for a month or two, my guides always refer back to this if I complain and say it's nothing compared to that is it…? The answer is always a definite no!
I have one client who has the soul agreement to clear out the collective trauma they have accumulated through hundreds of lifetimes. It’s an incredibly noble task that is taking years, i.e. a decade in the making, during which time, there are intense periods of clearing for a few months and then reprieve. They are five years in… however they have achieved incredible transformation already.
What is a dark night of the soul? What does that have to do with it?
Now, I personally don't have a clear definition of this experience more of a felt sense. So I asked my guides to channel an answer: ‘It is when there is no light to be seen by the soul. When all feels as though it is dark, and it is without end. ,’No light at the end of the tunnel’ as it were. Your sacred self feels missing’
So how does a dark night of the soul link to spontaneous healing episodes? Once again I channelled this: ‘Well, unconsciously, you are being pushed through a layer of denser consciousness in an effort to aid clearing or self-realisation.
This can often be experienced on a scale between uncomfortable to an extreme event, leading to crisis points for some. It is most definitely memorable due to its intensity. It can present and churn up all latent negativity still situated in the subconscious and the soul-conscious. It can take weeks to years to clear depending on the karmic debt to be released’.
So are all spontaneous healing episodes, dark nights of this soul? ‘Yes and no - depending on the recipient’.
What does entering a higher level of consciousness feel like?
So after all of this intense transformation, what can we expect to feel like? Good question… Well, don't expect to be enlightened at the end of it! However you will have shifted a gear in consciousness so to speak.
You may feel more spacious, open, with less of a sense of fixed self
You may feel less reactive or fearful around certain issues which are no longer triggering for you
Your sense of vision and perspective has broadened and is more positive or optimistic
You may feel lighter in many ways as you are karmically cleared
You may have a greater sense or clarity around your purpose or it has deepened
You feel more grounded, calmer, connected with the universe or your higher self.
It will be different for each of us, depending on both our starting point and what was being worked on. However, in a nutshell, you'll feel ‘better’.
The problem
The problem for most of us when we have this experience is a lack of social understanding around it, we don't really have a language to explain the experience. For example, I have created the title ‘spontaneous healing episode’ because there isn't a word for it (maybe it existed already, but I'm unaware of it). This isolation can lead us to feel as though we're ‘losing the plot’ as it’s not common - hence this article to help you!
So it's important for us to find ways to support ourselves as we are going through this experience, because usually we have to just carry on with our lives as it's happening. However, for many of us, we might find ourselves needing to crash out and nap or just breathe through our experience at inconvenient times to get through it. That's when it can be helpful to just have one or two people close to us who are in the know that can help give you a sense of comfort at least.
It really is a case of riding the wave, I'm afraid until you get through it. However I want to remind you, it wouldn't be happening if you hadn't agreed to it on a higher level and if you weren’t capable of getting through it… You can do it!
