Healing Houses - My Work as a Psychic House Cleaner

Book excerpt: While it's clear that these wavelengths are sensed, albeit unconsciously, by other living beings, the question of whether our minds still convey energy after our death, or whether such energetic charges can permeate inanimate matter, and cause it to resonate, have yet to be researched, scientifically. Healing Houses details Sheldon Norberg's two decades as a professional psychic whose career has focused on houses where the death, disease, or trauma of a prior owner left not only ghosts, but rationally inexplicable phenomena and physically palpable sensations for his clients to live with. While many of us find ourselves unable to stop thinking, those who can't suppress their ability to feel often find their homes convey unpleasant information, which in some situations can be overpowering. In reporting dozens of his cases, Norberg explains how the energy patterns of previous inhabitants affect the current residents; and more than that, how current models of physics agree with this concept. He also details the intuitive processes he uses to shift these patterns and restore energetic balance, presents a broad cross-cultural perspective to his work, and gives readers basic meditations for working on their own. "People whose homes hold lasting impressions of the deaths or trauma of the previous owners can be seriously affected, and admitting to it can put them at odds with rationality" says Norberg. "Ghosts or no ghosts, my clients find themselves affected by the negative feelings of their new homes, and frequently adjust their lives to suit these feelings." Healing Houses maps out a sophisticated metaphysical perspective and traces its development through case studies of dozens of the houses Norberg has worked in during his 20-year psychic career. Whether discussing his training in the feminine first field of Intuition Medicine, giving a global overview of house healing practices, or offering house healing basics to his readers, Norberg's wry wit shines through. But it is his compassion, for his clients, their homes, and for those whose remnant energy has manifested in some unforeseeable way, that makes this book a healing odyssey. Beginning with Transcendental Meditation at the age of ten, Sheldon Norberg's lifelong interest in states of consciousness led to a number of studies that helped organize his professional practice. After completing his Master of Intuition Medicine training at the Academy of Intuition Medicine, he earned his BA in Psycho-Spiritual Healing at San Francisco State University. His deep interest in consciousness and health led him to extensive practice in meditation and energetic healing, as well as yoga, sensory deprivation, ritual and divination. He has been featured in such media as The New York Times, New York Magazine, Booklist, The San Francisco Chronicle, and The San Francisco Examiner. "Sheldon has a unique intuitive skill set - the ability to detect and identify energy patterns held within a space. Along with this, he has formulated a process to shift aberrant energy patterns in order to induce clarity. Some intuitives heal people- Sheldon heals houses." Francesca McCartney, PhDFounder, Academy of Intuition Medicine & Energy Medicine University Psychic house healing is very serious work. I recommend anyone with an interest in energy healing in general, or in healing houses in particular, to read this book. You will walk away with a much clearer understanding of how we interface with our homes, and the contracts that we enter into with them. August 2010 Bonnie Cehovet
