A Personal Experience of Spiritual Healing

by Nicola Hobbs

Nicola describes her personal experiences and the benefits gained from spiritual healing with Bob Horler:

Bob is one of a group of spiritual healers at a drop in centre where I have been attending for nearly three years. I go along mainly because I suffer with chronic migraines and I cannot begin to explain the miraculous affect that spiritual healing has had on me and my migraines. The relief I have felt is so incredible I find myself skipping for joy in the streets afterwards! Believe me this is true. The other benefits gained from healing have been a good night's sleep, a relaxed state and emotional strength in times of need.

Usually an healing session will last approximately 30-40 minutes. During that time Bob will move his hands around my head, neck, arms and back and slowly I will begin to relax and go into an almost trance-like state. As the healing begins, gradually my whole body feels like it is being healed. I feel warmth flooding through my veins. It is almost as if the healing is clearing the system of stagnant energy and making things flow properly again. My whole body seems to emulate heat.

Then slowly my head feels like it is being pulled upwards and I imagine the pain leaving my head because amazingly my head is suddenly clear, feels lighter and the pain has lifted. At this point I also sense cool fresh air floating past my face and feel so relieved because I know my migraine has gone and yet again I have been cured. I would highly recommend spiritual healing to anyone suffering with migraines. I have tried every drug under the sun not to mention many other forms of alternative medicine and besides acupuncture spiritual healing is the only thing that has had any effect on me.

On occasions whilst having spiritual healing I have smelt a very distinctive sweet smell wafting around my being and have also felt light touches to my hand or shoulder. I am convinced they belong to my late Grandmother and Father, reassuring me all is well.

The relaxed warm state I feel at the end of healing stays with me for a while and sometimes it is hard to move out of that 'space' because I do feel quite giddy. This feeling passes though after sitting quietly for a few minutes after the healing.

Bob and his fellow healers have truly helped me more than words can describe. When spiritual healing was first mentioned to me I was more than a little sceptical but now I cannot praise these wonderful people more and would recommend anyone with any illness or problem, just to give it a try. You will never look back.

I would like to thank Bob for all the time he gives up every week for people like me and for relaxing and relieving so much pain with the wonderful gift he has of giving spiritual healing.
