All healing is done by the patient . This makes Huna ideal as a complementary healing method because the patient can easily be taught to utilize it. Healers, family members, friends, and other people supportive of the patient can also be taught to utilize it on his or her behalf, as well as to heal their own hurts brought about by the patient's illness. Let us now explore two of the simpler Huna healing techniques. Our ku is our body mind, the part of us that is directly involved in healing the body, as well as in creating dis-ease.
All illness is viewed as an imbalance of tension and relaxation.
Sustained stress will bring on a feeling of dis-ease, which if persistent, will ultimately manifest as physical illness. Before this occurs, it is ideally addressed by non-physical means. One of the most powerful techniques in Huna is communicating with one's ku. The simplest way to do this is to talk with yourself. The next time you feel a cold coming on take your acetominophen, anti-histamines, and decongestants but then sit down in a quiet place and have a chat with yourself.
