Coping Versus Healing
- A Big Difference

By Charles Wm. Skillas, Ph.D., DD, BCH, FNGH, CI

     Modern psychiatry, psychology and standard hypnotherapy are psychotherapy techniques that relieve symptoms of distress. Psychiatry does this through medication, which suppresses the symptom so you don't feel the suffering so badly. Psychology and standard hypnotherapy relieve symptoms by teaching you how to cope with the misery or by desensitizing you to its effects. The problem is that even though the symptoms become bearable, the underlying source of the symptom is still there. You just don't feel it so badly. Now, I am not deprecating what these modalities do because they do help relieve misery and that is good, but a more elegant way to get rid of symptoms is to get rid of the cause of the problem and then you don't have to learn to how to bear it so it does not hurt so much.
     I often get calls from suffering people who want to know if I do pain management using hypnosis. Of course I cannot do pain management because that is in the realm of the medical doctor or other licensed professional and if I did that work, I could go to jail. I tell these people that what I do is to open up their life force energy (chi) channels to restore the flow of chi to the cell communities of the body and that the effects of this action is very salubrious to the body and that distress from blocked chi is relieved. In other words, I do not manage pain, but instead, I get rid of the source of it, which is the blocked chi flow so pain does not have to be managed …it just is not there anymore.
     This approach to healing works for all misery symptoms because it addresses the basic cause of all illness, which is, blocked chi flow to the cell communities of the body. The most ancient model of disease that exists on our planet and which is over four thousand years old says, "all disease (problems), mental, emotional, physical and spiritual are caused by improper functioning of the cells of the body". For cells to be healthy and thereby function properly, cells need water, nutrition, oxygen and the life force energy (chi). In most of our western world, we get enough to eat, drink and breathe even though they may not be the best, but what really adversely affects the body's cell communities is the reduction in the flow of the vital life force energy chi. This chi-flow reduction is what causes the cell communities to malfunction and produce all the distressful symptoms we feel.
     Hypnotherapy as I practice and teach it addresses the reduction in the flow of life force energy chi at the cellular level of the body. Because I am a Certified Instructor for the National Guild of Hypnotists (NGH), I teach the NGH Hypnotherapy Certification Course which is based on Cognitive Behavioral Modification. I also teach hypnotherapy from the perspective of the flow of life force energy (Chi) through the body at the cellular level, so my students get the benefit of both approaches. I then teach advanced post-certification courses of Spirit Releasement Therapy (SRT), Remote Clearing, Past Life Regression Therapy (PLT) and Parts Therapy (PT) for the resolution of internal conflicts all of which address the reduction of life force energy flow through the body. When my students graduate, they are capable of handling all chi-flow reduction maladies and so people are helped and my students work is very successful.
