By Phillip and Jane Mountrose Emotional healing is a fundamental part of our spiritual growth. This is because parts of ourselves, i.e. our souls, have been fragmented by traumatic emotional experiences earlier in this life and in past lives. It is through the integration of these fragmented parts that we evolve spiritually. Each fragmented part of the soul is connected with an emotional pattern like anger, resentment, agitation, or fear that relates to the fragmenting experience. Energetically, the fragmentation creates blockages in the aura, which look like darkness or muddiness. Psychologically, the fragmentation represents blockages to our conscious awareness, because the fragmented parts exist in the unconscious part of the mind. In most people, the unconscious mind represents as much as 90 to 95% of their awareness, so they have very little real understanding of themselves and their motivations. The evolutionary journey and emotional healing go hand-in-hand. As we heal the painful emotions and bring in more conscious awareness, the darkness in the aura is gradually replaced by light and unconsciousness is replaced by consciousness. Mentally, we transcend our limited beliefs and open to new possibilities. Spiritually, more of the soul is able to be present in the body, which brings increasing amounts of love, compassion and joy into our lives. Some on the spiritual path want to bring in more light without focusing on the darkness. They want to have spiritual growth and bypass emotional healing. This is not possible and prevents many people from progressing further. These people are also missing the point of the experience, because it is by bringing awareness to our limiting emotions and beliefs that we learn about ourselves and connect with our hidden potential. Fortunately, with the powerful healing tools available today most of the needed healing work can be done quickly and easily. From our experience, it is much more painful to hold onto old emotional baggage than it is to heal it. In fact, the healing process can be both enlightening and inspiring. Additionally, the steps each of us takes towards understanding ourselves helps to pave the way for others to move forward on their paths. This site contains a wealth of information about emotional healing. The Stages of Your Spiritual Development in the July, 1999 Issue of our "Getting Thru to Your Soul Newsletter" describes the lessons we learn on each step of the evolutionary journey. This information and much more is available in our book, Getting Thru to Your Soul, which also provides powerful healing tools for use on the spiritual path.
