1.) What
is energy?
Everything in existence, be it
a chair, a kidney, an apartment building, an intention, a thought,
a fear, a worry or joy, is energy:
subatomic particles that vibrate at a specific rate. The slower
the rate of vibration, the denser or more solid the object. The
subatomic particles of a chair vibrate more slowly than those
of an emotion or a belief.
All energies are neutral: none are good, none are bad. Energies
of similar frequencies attract one another: joy begets more joy;
fear begets more fear. Every energy has an intelligence and a
heart. Every energy has its own unique vibration called its signature
vibration. Attuning to an energy’s signature vibration
enables us to connect with that energy’s intelligence and
heart, hear its story.

2.) How does Energy
Healing work?
Short answer: Energy Healing works with
the flow of vital energy in the body to restore and support physical,
emotional, mental and spiritual well-being.
Long answer: Energy (prana, ki, chi, Life
Force) underlies everything in existence. When the subtle energy
in the body is flowing and in balance, we have inner and outer
wellness. When the flow of our underlying energy systems is disrupted
or out of balance, physical, emotional, mental and/or spiritual
disharmony results. Energy Healing works directly with the flow
of this vital energy in the body to restore and support physical,
emotional, mental and spiritual wellness.

3.) What are the Chakras?
The Energy field?
Short answer: Your energy field is also called
your aura. The chakras are spinning energy centers that lie within
it.
Long answer: Your energy field or energy body
is your aura. It consists of 7 interpenetrating layers that extend
from deep inside your physical body to a few feet outside your
body. Your energy body pre-existed your physical body and includes
your chakras. There are 7 major chakras associated with the physical
body. Chakras are spinning vortices of energy that are located
at specific locations along the spinal column. They perform important
energy services including filtering incoming energy and releasing
unwanted energy. Your chakras reflect imbalances and blockages
in the various layers of your energy body. Metaphysically, the
chakras carry our Soul lessons for this lifetime. Energy Healing
directly works with the energy body and the chakras to bring optimal
physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellness.

4.) How does the flow
of energy in my body affect me?
Short answer: The degree of balance, openness
and flow within our energy body has a direct relationship to our
sense of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being.
Long answer: When the flow of energy throughout
the body is open and balanced, we experience physical, emotional,
mental and spiritual wellness. When the flow of energy is depleted
or disrupted, we experience physical, emotional, mental and/or
spiritual symptoms that reflect the nature of that disturbance.
For example, a blockage of the flow of energy in the pelvis (due,
perhaps, to childhood shame about sexuality stemming from religious
and/or family beliefs) could manifest as chronic low back problems,
constipation, diarrhoea, colitis, haemorrhoids, hip problems, feeling
wooden in the pelvis, weak abdominal and pelvic floor muscles,
dysmenorrhoea, sexual issues, breathing primarily in the upper
chest not in the belly, etc.

5.) What makes Pippa unique
as an Energy Healer?
As an Energy Healer,
Pippa is heart-centered and Soul-directed. She creates a safe
and loving healing space for her clients. Her clairvoyant skills
and her willingness to share her knowledge and insights combined
with the high vibrational energies that she brings in create
a deep healing opportunity.
In addition to balancing and opening the energy
that underlies your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual symptoms,
Pippa goes to the root cause of your energy blockages. Going to
the root cause of your issues and symptoms brings deep and long
term change.

back to top
6.) What is clairvoyance?
Short
answer: Clairvoyance is inner seeing. It involves attuning to the
signature vibration of an energy.
Long answer: Every energy in existence
has its own unique vibration called a signature vibration. Clairvoyance
involves attuning to this vibration and opening to receive connection
to its heart and inherent intelligence. Clairvoyance is similar
to tuning into the frequency of a specific radio station (ie the
energy of the object, belief, thought, concept etc with which you
want to connect) by carefully adjusting the radio dial (ie the
clairvoyant’s
inner focus and intention). Although few of us consciously use
our clairvoyance, we are all clairvoyant. When you have a gut feeling
or a hunch, you are using your clairvoyance.

7.) What does it mean
to be heart-centered and Soul-directed?
When the healer
is heart-centered, the healing is heart-centered. As a heart-centered
healer, Pippa brings in high vibrational healing energies that
are gentle, loving and compassionate as well as discerning and
wise. These energies gently engage and open the client’s
heart while creating a healing environment of safety and trust.
As a Soul-directed healer, Pippa consciously connects with the
Soul or Higher Self of her client before the healing session. This
initiates the opening of a vortex of energy which invites into
the healing space the client’s Higher Self or Soul establishing
it as the authority over the healing. Soul-directed healing ensures
that what unfolds in a session will serve the client’s highest
interests.

8.) For what sort of
problems would I see Pippa as an Energy Healer?
Since
energy underlies every physical, emotional, mental and spiritual
aspect of our lives, by working at the level of energy Pippa
can offer support for any acute or chronic illness or disturbance
that detracts from your sense of inner and outer well-being. The
range of problems for which you might see Pippa include chronic
fatigue, fibromyalgia, asthma, MS, cancer, constipation, back problems,
feeling wooden in the pelvis, headaches, addiction, eating disorders,
generalized unhappiness, depression, stress, anger problems, anxiety,
poor breathing patterns, negativity, malaise, a feeling of being
stuck in life, feeling of unworthiness, meaninglessness, low-self
esteem, excessive fearfulness, etc.

9.) Will Energy Healing
cure me?
Short answer: Healing is not the same thing
as curing.
Long answer: Energy Healing is not about
performing miracles. We do not ‘do’ anything if we
are ‘cured’.
Rather, we are ‘done to’. There is little if any awareness
or learning associated with ‘curing’. Healing is a
journey of self-discovery, self-awareness and self-empowerment.
It is a journey of re-discovering and reclaiming ourselves, piece
by precious piece. It is about finding inner peace and, through
inner peace, our own truth and freedom. When we go to the core
to heal, profound physical, emotional, mental, emotional and spiritual
changes occur. We are transformed. It may be that there is no cure
for the burdens we bear, but there is always healing –being
able to live and love from a deep, wise place with peace and grace
and gratitude. This is the gift of healing.

back to top
10.) Why do I have to
have conscious awareness of the issue? Why can’t Pippa
just do the work for me?
When you have conscious awareness
of your process, you are participating in your own healing, you
are taking responsibility for your own health and well-being.
This is self-empowering. This is true freedom. As you develop
conscious awareness of your issues and processes, you are able
to create emotional, mental, physical and spiritual changes in
your life that are deeply rooted, widely held, long lasting and
transformative.

11.) What is the root
cause of an issue?
Short answer: The root cause of
an issue is the core of that issue. Often the root cause is
a childhood belief that, as children, we understand to be very
important to our family/society/religion/etc. Our attachment
to this belief roots the issue and its associated behavioural
and thought patterns deep in our unconscious becoming our ‘default’ way
of thinking, feeling, behaving, being in the world. Such issues
and their root causes often have influence over our behaviour
and thought patterns well into adulthood despite the fact that,
as adults, those patterns no longer serve our highest interests.
Very, very long answer: The root cause of an
issue is the belief or experience that is the core of that issue.
Most of these beliefs are taken on in childhood and are the result
of significant experiences (that do not need to be of a traumatic
nature to have a lasting effect on us) and of the spoken and unspoken
rules and beliefs of our family, society, religion, political systems
etc.
As children, in taking on such beliefs, we adopt certain thought,
behavioural and emotional patterns that enable us to live by that
belief. The family belief, “Big boys don’t cry”,
for example, requires a boy to learn to feel, think and behave
in a certain way if he wants his parents’ approval and love.
The thought, behavioural and emotional patterns that accompany
our childhood beliefs rapidly become part of our unconscious, automatic
way of being in the world. Those that are of a self-limiting and
self-negating nature form the root cause of our issues in adulthood.
The following is an example of a belief taken on in childhood
and the impact that that belief might have in childhood and later
on in adulthood:
A little girl thinks:
“The world is a scary place. I do
not feel safe in it. If I am left alone in the world, I will die.
I need my parents to take care of me, protect me, give me clothing,
food, shelter. No one else will do this for me except my parents.
When my parents are happy, I feel their love and then I feel safe.
I know they will take care of me. When my parents are angry, I
feel their love go away and I think they may decide they don’t
want take care of me. Then I feel scared. To feel safe in the world,
I need my parents to love me. For them to love me, I must make
sure they are happy. I must not make them angry or upset. To make
sure my parents are happy, I must be good. I must not say ‘No’ and
stamp my foot. I must be lady-like and polite. I must wear a happy
face. I must be helpful and do what I am told. I must be pretty
and do well at school and not make a fuss.”
From the child’s point of view, this set of beliefs concerns
her very survival. These beliefs include: the world is an unsafe
place; she is vulnerable and has no power in the world; to be safe
and to survive in the world she needs someone else to take care
of her; for others to want to take care of her they need to love
her; when people are angry, their love goes away; her habitual
way of being in the world makes her parents angry and therefore
unloveable; to be worthy of love she must be good, pretty, successful,
compliant, keep everyone happy and not attract negative attention.
At a young age, this little girl learns to deny her own needs,
opinions and feelings in order to appease others and therefore
be safe. She learns to be a pleaser and a perfectionist. She may
develop a vicious inner critic to help keep her thoughts and actions
in line. To feel worthy of her parents’ love, she may become
an overachiever. Or her safety in the world may be dependent on
not being seen, not standing out, not attracting attention in which
case, she may become an underachiever. She may take on victim or
martyr energy. There are many possibilities.
Over time, these thought and behavioural patterns became part
of this girl’s unconscious, automatic way of being in the
world and these patterns serve her: her parents love her. She stays
safe. She survives.
By the time this young girl becomes an adult, she will have been
suppressing her Self and her life-force energy for many, many years.
Eventually, this suppression affects the flow of energy throughout
her body -her heart, her throat, her pelvis, her arms, her legs,
her spine- creating energy imbalances and blockages, vacancies
and disconnections. In time, these chronic energy disruptions could
manifest as any number of health problems including headaches,
heart disease, lung problems, chronic fatigue, breast cancer, back
problems, depression, generalized unhappiness, eating disorders,
addiction, anger problems, fearfulness, hopelessness, self-doubt,
resentment, unworthiness, poor self-esteem, etc.
As an adult, only by going to the root cause of these physical,
emotional, mental and spiritual issues will this woman be able
to heal, to find her own voice, power, essence and truth. Only
by going to the root cause will she be able to find true freedom
and release the beliefs and patterns that have been running her
life since childhood.

12.) What does going
to the root cause of an issue do?
Short answer: Going
to the root cause of an issue facilitates the opening of that
issue’s energy template
which then allows us to release the emotional, mental, spiritual
and physical aspects of the issue.
Long answer: We hold our thoughts and beliefs in our energy
field. When we go to the root cause of an issue, we take our conscious
awareness to the core belief of that issue. Working with conscious
awareness through our hearts literally loosens and opens the energetic
template of the core belief in the energy field. This, in turn,
allows the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual aspects of
the issue to loosen and open.
When we go to the root cause of an issue with
love, compassion and conscious awareness, we begin to understand
the ways in which a particular belief and its accompanying thought
and behaviour patterns served us as children. We begin to understand
the power of these patterns, why and how these patterns continue
to influence and inform us as adults even though they no longer
to serve us. When we go to the root of our issues and consciously
re-connect with our child-self, we are able, with love, compassion
and gratitude, to rework and release the patterns and scripts that
have been running our lives since childhood.

13. ) Will my problems just
go away when I go to the root cause of the issue?
Unless
you have been working on your personal issues, it is unlikely that
your issues will just go away. Most of us have had our programmes
and patterns since childhood. They are deeply rooted in our unconscious
as part of our automatic default settings. They have been running
our lives for years. Reworking and releasing them takes awareness,
commitment, practice, patience, compassion and time.

14.) How does Pippa
work with the root cause of an issue?
When working with
the root cause of an issue, Pippa uses healing techniques that
help the client develop conscious awareness of both the issue
and its causes. The main technique Pippa uses when addressing
the root cause is Inner Child work but she also uses Energetic
Dialogue, Goodness Process and Conference Table. For these techniques,
Pippa and her client usually sit and face each other in chairs
although sometimes with these techniques she will do ‘hands
on’ healing work with her client lying fully
clothed on the massage table.

back to top
15.) What is Inner Child work?
Inner
Child work is a healing technique that focuses on reclaiming the
disowned parts of ourselves (the Child) that are holding our wounds.
It is a gentle, loving and powerful technique. Inner Child work
takes us to the root cause of our issues. It helps to free us from
the flawed beliefs taken on in childhood that unconsciously script
our lives even in adulthood.
Our Inner Child carries our wounds, experiences and beliefs as
well as our unresolved emotions. Connecting heart-to-heart with
our Inner Child helps to ease, open and release the grip of the
wounds we carry. Inner Child work works directly with the consciousness
of the Inner Child connected to an issue.
We all have many Inner Children. Each Inner Child
is a discernable energy that we hold in our energy field. Each
has its own voice, personality, needs, beliefs and emotions. Each
Inner Child has its own, unique signature vibration by which it
can be known, heard, understood, accepted, loved and healed. Each
child has served, wants to serve and continues to serve us in important
ways.

back to top
16.) What are Energetic
Dialogue, Goodness Process and Conference Table?
Like
Inner Child work, these healing techniques go to the core of our
issues. They offer deep, transformational healing. They engage
the client’s conscious awareness to heal and release
his/her issues.

back to top
17.) How is Energy Healing
with Pippa different from other Energy Healing modalities?
Pippa
participated in an intensive 4 year Energy Healing program before
setting up a practice. This training taught her how to work with
and trust, as the final authority, her own inner wisdom and Higher
Self. It taught her to reach beyond the limitations of convention
and form. Following her Energy Healing training, Pippa continued
to broaden and deepen her connection to her Higher Self as well
as her skills as a clairvoyant.
As a healer, Pippa’s path is led by her
own Higher Self. The healing energies that she brings in are the
result of her connection to her own truth as well as to higher
levels of consciousness. As an individual, Pippa’s intention
is to have greater and deeper conscious awareness in her own life.
As a healer, Pippa’s
intention is to support her clients in finding their own truth
and freedom.

18.) What is distance healing?
Is it as effective as face-to-face Energy Healing?
Short
answer: Distance healing is Energy Healing that is done with the
healer and the client in different geographical locations.
Long answer: Energy Healing that is done with the healer and
the client in different locations is called distance healing. It
makes no difference whether the healer and the client are in different
rooms within the same house or across the country. Depending on
the nature of the issue to be addressed, Pippa may conduct the
entire healing over the phone or she may choose at some point in
the healing to work without the presence of the phone in order
to go deeper. The client either rests comfortably on a bed or in
a chair throughout the healing, staying focused and undisturbed
by pets, people etc.
Distance Healing is not less effective or profound
than face-to-face healing. Energy is not confined to time or space
and is, therefore, neither less potent nor less responsive nor
less accessible because of distance. As a healer, whether Pippa
connects clairvoyantly with her client in the same room or from
3,000 miles away, the depth and insight of her connection and of
the transmission of her healing energies is not lessened. In Pippa’s
experience, distance work can sometimes even offer a more profound
and powerful healing. In these cases, Pippa is able to focus her
healing intentions at a very deep, still and specific place in
her client’s
unconscious, reaching far below the personality and the surface
issues. That said, the personal connection offered in a face-to-face
healing session is a powerful aspect of healing that is not available
in distance healing.
19.) Does
Pippa do ‘hands
on’ Energy
Healing as well as healings in which she and her client sit face-to-face?
Short
answer: Yes. If a client is not comfortable with touch, Pippa
can work as effectively with her hands off the body.
Long Answer: ‘Hands on’ energy healing is an important
part of Pippa’s Energy Healing practice. During a ‘hands
on’ session, the client lies fully clothed on the massage
table. Pippa places her hands on different areas of the body in
order to work the energy. Pippa also works with her hands off the
body. Sometimes Pippa uses the healing energy of sound.
Pippa does ‘hands on’ Energy Healing to open, balance
and align her client’s energy field and chakras; to energetically
cleanse the spine; to bring healing energy to the various systems
and organs of the physical body; to address particular energy blockages
and imbalances; to bring deep restoration and support to a client
who is emotionally or physically exhausted or ill. ‘Hands
on’ work is useful for those who are dominated by their mind
or mental field as it gives then the opportunity to let go of the
mind and be in the physical body.
When using healing techniques that involve dialogue or that require
the conscious awareness of her client, Pippa and her client generally
sit across from one another in chairs. Even though the client is
not on the massage table and Pippa is not putting her hands on
the client’s body, Pippa addresses and works with the imbalances
and energy blockages that reveal themselves in the client’s
chakras, organs and systems of the physical and energy body.

20. ) How will I feel
after an Energy Healing session with Pippa?
Most clients
leave a session with Pippa feeling restored, relaxed and with
a greater sense of inner and outer peace. They leave with a deeper
understanding of their issues and themselves and with specific
ideas about what they can do to continue to support their own
journey.

back to top
21.) Will
less happen in an energy healing session if I don’t
feel energy?
It is perfectly fine not to feel energy during
an Energy Healing session. The healing will not be any less effective.
Whether you are aware of the energy or not, energy is always present,
always moving, opening, clearing, renewing. Throughout an Energy
Healing session, Pippa is constantly mindful of and working with
various levels of energy.
If at any time during a session a client needs to pause, slow
down or stop, that request will immediately be respected. Safety
and trust are essential to any healing work. Pippa makes sure that
her clients feel safe at all times.

back to top
22) Would I ever be overwhelmed
by energy during a healing session with Pippa?
Pippa is
skilled at setting energetic boundaries and at modulating incoming
healing energies both for herself and for her clients. In addition,
at the beginning of every healing, Pippa sets the intention that
the healing will only serve the highest interests of her client,
that the healing will be guided and directed by the client’s
Higher Self/Soul, that the healing will unfold in a kind and gentle
manner and that the healing will blend with, not conflict with,
the life-needs of the client.
If at any time during a session a client feels the need to pause,
slow down or stop, that request will immediately be respected.
Safety and trust are essential to any healing work. Pippa makes
sure that her clients feel safe at all times.

back to top
23) Can everyone benefit from
having Energy Healing?
Everyone who is alive has an energy
system and therefore will benefit from Energy Healing. Our sense
of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being relates
directly to the state of our energy system. Our energy system is
very sensitive. It is easily disrupted and put out of balance by
societal and environmental influences. These disturbances eventually
manifest as physical, emotional, mental and/or spiritual disharmonies.
Gently clearing, soothing, aligning, balancing, opening and grounding
the energy field is of benefit to every person, from the most vulnerable
and fragile amongst us to the hardiest.

back to top
24.) How long will the effects
of a healing session last?
This varies and depends on
how well the client is able to hold new energy alignments. The
more conscious awareness a client has of his/her issues and the
more connection the client has to his/her Higher Self, the more
deeply the energies of the healing will set and the longer they
will last.

back to top
25.) Should I continue
to see my doctor if I am having energy work with Pippa?
Energy
Healing with Pippa supports and complements traditional counselling
and medicine but it is not a replacement. If you have a medical
or emotional condition you should continue to seek the advice
of your doctor.

back to top
26.) Is Energy Healing or Pippa
connected to any religious group?
Neither Pippa nor the Energy Healing that she practices is connected
to any religion or religious group.
