The theory behind the
healing of our ancestral line is to heal all of the genetic memories which are carried
within our DNA from generations past. Our DNA carries all the emotions and hurts
experienced physically, spiritually, emotionally and mentally by our Ancestors from
generation to generation which have not been addressed or healed.
How can this be true? It
may sound a little difficult to believe but if you look at a more scientific explanation
it is easier to understand. Each cell in the human body has a cellular memory. Cellular
memory is also within our DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid). Our DNA consists of many hundreds
of thousands of atoms. It makes up chromosomes which carry genes. Inside each cell
is a nucleus which is like the brain or computer system of the cell. Chromosomes
exist in the nucleus of all cells and the job of the chromosomes is to carry genes to the
nucleus in order to programme it with genetic information. During human
reproduction, genes and chromosomes are mixed together from both parents. All
information and charactistics that a living thing inherits from its parents are stored in
our DNA. Our DNA is unique and individual and it forms part of each individual's
genetic make-up - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Each aspect can
affect the other like a chain reaction of impulses throughout the body.
If you think of DNA like
a consciousness that flows genetically through memory from generation to generation then
you can get a clearer picture of how our ancestor's emotional and physical trauma has
transferred down the family line. We all have experienced hereditory conditions within the
family history.
Ancestral healing is a
method of sending healing to the past. It works by allowing ourselves to be in a
state of acceptance of our ancestor's traumas, either forgiving or healing it. It is
not always known what an issue might be but there are now many therapists who specialise
in helping you to find these issues. We all know that it is in the letting go of
something that brings about healing and we have the ability to allow this letting go now,
in this lifetime in order for our future generations to not get stuck and saddled with
this pain or emotional trauma.
There is also something
known as DNA reprogramming. This works in exactly the same way. It is in identifying
the things passed down through our family histories that we can re-programme our minds to
a better way of thinking. Such as, intolerance, anger, lack of compassion, lack of
the expression of love within a family or a relationship. This can manifest in many
forms. If we look at the emotion and decide that we are going to change it
into something more positive for our own grand children and great grand children then we
can speed up the process of healing our DNA.
In the last 10 years I
have learned a lot about healing the past, with focus very much on 'Ancestral' healing
within our family lines. I have worked with ancestral healing for myself and my
family, and for the most part, it does seem to have a tremendous impact, with noticable
results.
