If you have been called to be a healer, then your desire to help people is an intrinsic part of who you are. Wanting to help others is who you are at the core.
Helping people change, grow, heal and transform makes you happy. And it hurts your heart when someone is in pain and needs to heal but won’t or can’t.
Because healing has been placed in our hearts, and our hands, we know that we have been chosen to facilitate personal growth and healing. And being chosen is a gift, a privilege and an honor.
"Healing is about helping others to trust and accept themselves, as they are, right now in the present moment, so they can take a look at who they are. Your work is to facilitate personal growth by helping others figure out who they are, why they are having a hard time, how they've gotten to where they are and then assist them in discovering the ways they can help themselves."~ Ronelle Coburn, Destiny at Your Fingertips
Even if you were not consciously aware, on some level you have probably always known that you had this mission, this gift. Other people know it, too, and are drawn to you like moths to a flame.
Healer Quiz
See if you recognize yourself in this list of characteristics…
(1) Complete strangers often come up to you or talk to you while you’re in line at the grocery store and they tell you deeply personal stories for no particular reason. In fact, they sometimes say that they don’t know why they’re telling you their story.
(2) Your closest relationships also reflect this instinctive level of trust and they often tell you that your words inspire or encourage them.
(3) Though people are often disguised by a carefully constructed facade, you are able to see past all that, right into their hearts. Because you can see them clearly, you know what they don’t or can’t see: that there is wonder and beauty inside them, wholeness that they just can’t access yet.
(4) You often know just the right thing to say to someone who is hurting, and sometimes you don’t really know where the answer came from, but you can tell from their response that it was right. Though you may try to be tactful, you have a way of saying exactly what you think, when asked, and people appreciate that about you.
(5) What people may not appreciate as much is the advice that they didn’t ask for or want. Sometimes, you just can’t resist trying to help even if you suspect that they’d rather not hear it.
Do those descriptions resonate with you?
