To prepare you might want to take a few slow deep breaths and say a prayer to God, All That Is, to help you be as open to the healing as you can be and to please join in with the healing work and support you through your healing process. When you are ready to begin the healing call Archangel Raphael's name either in your mind or softly out load and ask that he come in to assist in your healing. See the healing energy in the form of White Light flowing from his hands down through your body. Try to relax and feel the energy. Most people feel the healing energy as a warmth, or a tingle.
Some people feel it as a soft and loving current running through their body.
It is best to do this overall healing first to open you to the healing energy and prepare you on all levels to accept the healing. This initial step can last for several minutes or until you feel that it is time to move on to the next step. You can now work on specific areas of your body. If you can, place your hands over the area that you would like healed, picture Raphael's hands over your own and see the White Light flowing through his hands to your own and on to your injury or area of illness. Your hands may become very warm from the healing energy when you do this.
