Healing with Divine Love

by Lisa Litzsinger

​I love Reiki and other energy healing modalities, and have found these practices to offer innumerable benefits, emotionally and physically. I am excited to see the various modalities of energy healing growing in acceptance and use for both clients and students alike. It is my belief that more love and light being sent and received benefits our whole planet.

The great part is that healing energy is available to all of us at any time, even if we have not had any training. We can simply ask and trust that this energy is available and is flowing freely for us all.

Over 15 years ago I took a class in energy healing at Unity Church of the Triangle. It was not specific to a type of practice and offered 1 main instruction: simply say the phrase “Divine Love flows through me for the purpose of healing me/you now.” Yes, that was it. I learned other important information about healing, setting an intention, and opening to the energy, and we practiced a lot. But I remember most that phrase, and I used it plenty over the years for myself and others.

Many years later I learned of the Divine Love Petition, offered through worldserviceinstitute.org, a non-profit company teaching the principles of Divine Love. I studied their protocol in detail, and learned about ways we can prepare ourselves for healing, and to line up with our intention, but again what I remembered most is that we can just ask for the energy to come in and bless us. I have asked it to heal fear, to fill my cells for my highest healing, and to bring inner peace, no matter the situation in my outer world. It has worked for me, and for others with whom I have shared it. 

I will always say a big “Yes” to anyone who is curious about learning Reiki, as I believe that the training attunes students to these higher energies and opens the heart and mind on a deep level that can be life changing. But even without this advanced training, each of us can invite in and allow the blessings of Divine Love for healing on all levels.  ​
