Recovery From Religion

[Elizabeth]

Hi.
What would be happening in a person's consciousness to lead them away from the world of healing into religion and cult like groups of control?
I have been through alot the last 10 years and finally made it out of these groups.
I was / am a healer but followed someone's else's thoughts about what I was doing.
Before this happened I was in a high state of love and building my dream.
I have lost so much in terms of health, wealth and confidence.
I even did a weekend course with Annick.

We work with the idea our Spirit guides us always to the experiences we need to manifest our deep decisions. So, I would say your gave your power/freedom away during this time instead of sitting in the driver seat in your consciousness and continue to be your own guru, your own master. Sometimes, we go through some difficult situations in order for us to understand we don´t want that anymore. Therefore, you become more conscious and you understand better, through your own experiences, that nobody is higher, nobody is lower and the direction comes from within. You learn to be kind to yourself.

Hi Philippe,

Ahh thank you, yes giving power away and submitting to hierarchal structures. That makes sense. Inner guidance and being our own guru. I actually heard a voice continually say..."Be Kind to yourself Elizabeth" .
Ha ha...glad to be back again!

Blessings.

Dear Elizabeth,
Sounds like you tried hard to adapt to/fit into the religion/cult in which you've been involved (what ever that was) but, deep down, that religion/cult was not in tune with your own, authentic, spirituality.
Wellcome back and trust your trip.
