Questioning More Cord Cutting Myths

In Part 2 of this series, let’s continue our pursuit of “Just right” in the context of cutting cords of attachment, a form of spiritual reading and a key technique for doing healing with Energy Spirituality. 

• Just because a psychic knows a great deal about intuitive reading or aura reading doesn’t mean the practitioner is qualified to cut cords.

• Just because a healer does wonders with energy fields, that doesn’t mean the practitioner is qualified to cut cords.

• Just because a hypnotist or regression therapist does superb work in a session, that doesn’t mean the practitioner is qualified to cut cords.

Oboy, the stories I’ve heard, tales of woe where no tear was shed… but crying would have been quite appropriate. Neither the practitioner nor the client recognized a missed opportunity… or worse.

In our category of “Too little” comes this story quoted in my book, Cut Cords of Attachment: Heal Yourself and Others with Energy Spirituality:

“It was a beautiful thing. My therapist asked if I was ready to cut the cord to my brother. I decided I was. After she cut the cord, it reattached instantly, only now it was a beautiful shade of blue. I guess that’s because I still love him.”

My friend “Gracie” told me this story, creating instant flabbergasting on my part. Gracie had gone to a wonderful regression therapist on my recommendation.

(Before recommending “Jean,” the regression therapist, I had gone to her many times myself. As a regression therapist, I cannot do this depth work on myself. Once I had done a session for Jean where I facilitated cutting a cord. Was being on the receiving end of one cord cutting session all that Jean thought she needed to consider herself trained to cut cords? I may never know.)

What is wrong with this story? First, no cord of attachment reattaches after being properly cut. It doesn’t reattach instantly… It doesn’t reattach ever.

What would you think of a hair stylist who cuts off several inches of your hair, all split  ends. Suddenly, after the snips hit the floor, they all come rebounding right back and re-attach themselves to the rest of your hair.

Okay, I might go do that once, just for entertainment. But I wouldn’t call it getting a haircut. Maybe that’s not the greatest analogy I could have made, but you can find a good one, surely. When something is really cut, then it’s cut. Hello!

Second, the unconditional love in a relationship is encoded between the energy fields of two people. But beautiful love flows are, by definition, do not exist in a cord of attachment. There is a technical name, from intuitive readings, for that auric structure of beautiful energy flow. The term is “spiritual tie.”

Nobody can cut spiritual ties. Who would try? When a practitioner cannot tell the difference etween cords and spiritual ties, that’s a pretty basic misunderstanding. Not that I think it happened in the instance with Jean. From the description, she didn’t cut a spiritual tie. She didn’t cut a cord, either. She helped someone who was hypnotized to do a visualization  And speaking of hypnotism…

Third, and most important, you’re asking way too little of cutting cords if you think it can ever be done successfully through hypnosis or meditation. Look, I admire both of these fields enormously. I admire them so much that I do them. With hypnosis, I am a certified practitioner and a member of the National Guild of Hypnotists. I’m also a member of IAART, the international association for past life therapy. Regarding meditation, some of you Blog-Buddies have read here how teaching meditation was pretty much my whole life for 17 years.

So yes, meditation and hypnosis are wonderful. Both are based on altering a person’s inner experience of consciousness. But a cord of attachment is a physical structure, not merely an idea. Moving out a cord amounts to surgery on the level of your aura. It is physical healing on the metaphysical level of energy fields.

If you cut your hand, might it be useful to physically stop the bleeding, use a real antiseptic, put on a three-dimensional band-aid? It’s asking far too little to think that a cord is just a simple idea that can be removed with one quick thought or prayer.

That’s like thinking you should born automatically knowing how to move out other kinds of astral debris (something I’ll be teaching February 29 – March 2, at a Spiritual Healing Intensive.)

Let’s collect stories and thoughts about this aspect of expecting too little when cutting cords of attachment:

• Has anyone told you that a cord will reattach if….. something else?

• Do you believe that hypnosis is an appropriate way to remove physical structures in energy fields?

Sharing our stories, we can raise consciousness about Cutting Cords of Attachment all over the Internet. Today’s theme is this: “Can you permanently remove a cord of attachment by wishing, praying, hypnosis, or meditating?”
