Heal (Guidance)

Guide person through layered healing: energetic + herbal + physical + holistic. AI = informed coach, does NOT transmit energy.

Use When

• Physical ailment/injury → structured stabilization
• Energetic imbalance (fatigue, emotional stagnation, sleep) → self-healing
• Herbal remedies + plant access (see forage-plants)
• Holistic session (breathwork, visualization, body scan)
• Post-meditation integration → directed attention (see meditate-guidance)

In

• Required: condition/intention desc (physical/energetic/emotional/wellness)
• Required: resources (herbs, clean water, first aid, quiet space)
• Optional: experience w/ energy work (default: none)
• Optional: contraindic. (allergies, meds, injuries, pregnancy)
• Optional: time (default 30-60 min)

Step 1: Holistic assessment

Guide self-assessment: "Where discomfort? When start? Better/worse by what? Cause?" Listen + reflect back.

→ Clear primary complaint + dimension + prioritized plan. Person feels heard.

If err: unclear → body scan (Step 7) → locate tension/heat/blocked before modality.

Step 2: Recommend modalities

┌────────────────────┬──────────────────────────┬──────────────────────┐

└────────────────────┴──────────────────────────┴──────────────────────┘

Explain combination: "Begin breathwork → ground. Energy healing → primary issue. Close → herbal tea → integrate."

→ Session plan: 1-3 modalities prioritized + time + materials. Rationale understood + consent.

If err: unsure → default holistic (Step 7). Breath + visualization safe + no materials. Gentle start.

Step 3: Energetic connection

1. Sit/stand, feet flat, spine straight
2. Breath slow: in 4 / hold 2 / out 6
3. Ground visual: "Roots from feet into earth, drawing warm energy"
4. Attend hands: "Warmth, tingling, pulsing in palms?"
5. Clear intention: "State silently what healing for"
6. If working on another → permission before touch

→ Warmth/activation in hands. Calmer, focused. Intention clear.

If err: can't settle → extend Step 7 breathwork first. Difficulty normal ≠ inability. Focus rhythm, don't force calm.

Step 4: Coach energy healing

└──────────┴──────────────┴────────────────────────────────────────┘

1. "Hands 5-10 cm above area, or lightly on it"
2. "3-5 min, breathe steady"
3. "Heat, cold, tingling, pulsing, pulling?"
4. Stuck energy (dense, cold, static) → "light dissolving blockage"
5. Depleted (hollow, cool) → "warm light filling area"
6. "Follow intuition — move to related areas"
7. Close: "sweep head→feet, 5-10 cm from body, 3×"

→ Warmth, relaxation, tingling, emotional release. Temp change / pulsing possible. 15-30 min.

If err: no sensation → heart center (most responsive), extend to 7-10 min. Uncomfortable w/ touch → hands-hovering. Presence > belief. Drift → Step 3 grounding.

Step 5: Herbal remedy prep

└───────────────┴─────────────────┴───────────────────────────────────┘

CAUTION: Positive identification is essential before ingesting any plant.
See `forage-plants` for identification protocols.
Use `purify-water` for safe water and `make-fire` for heating.

Walk through each step, confirm ID each stage.

→ Prepared remedy, positive ID plants, clean water.

If err: ID uncertain → no ingest. External poultice less risk but still need ID. No suitable → skip + other modalities.

Step 6: First aid stabilization

Physical injuries → stabilize before esoteric.

1. Bleeding: direct pressure clean cloth, elevate above heart, 10-15 min no checking
2. Burns: clean running water 10-20 min, loose clean cloth — NO ice, NO butter
3. Sprains: R.I.C.E. — Rest, Ice/cold, Compress firm not tight, Elevate
4. Shock (pale, cold, rapid pulse, confusion): lie flat, elevate legs, warm, talk reassuringly
5. Breathing difficulty: sit upright, loosen clothing, slow breath 4 in / 6 out

→ Bleeding controlled, pain managed, shock prevented, stable for transport/care.

If err: bleeding not stop after 15 min direct → arterial pressure point upstream. Shock worsens → maintain warmth + consciousness + emergency help. First aid = ABSOLUTE PRIORITY over all modalities. Communicate clearly.

Step 7: Holistic techniques

Stand alone or weave into any modality.

Breathwork (5-10 min):

1. In 4 / hold 2 / out 6
2. Pain: focus breath not pain; exhale = tension leaving
3. Anxiety: extend exhale — in 4 / out 7 — activates calm response
4. Energy: rapid nose breath 30 cycles + hold (caution: dizziness, warn)

Visualization (5-10 min):

1. Healing light (any color) entering top of head
2. Direct to area needing attention
3. Light dissolves darkness/congestion/pain
4. Expand to fill body
5. Protective sphere of light around

Body Scan (10-15 min):

1. Top of head
2. Slow down each region
3. Notice: tension, temp, sensation, emotion
4. Blockage → breathe into area 3-5 breaths
5. Down to soles
6. Note areas for targeted follow-up

→ Increased relaxation, reduced pain perception, emotional release. Body scan → specific areas for follow-up.

If err: can't focus visual → breath-only. Body scan triggers distress → slow down, offer skip region. Goal ≠ force through resistance.

Step 8: Close + follow

1. 5-10 min quiet rest
2. Offer water (purify-water wilderness)
3. "How feel vs start?"
4. Note shifted vs unchanged
5. Ongoing self-care: breathwork, herbal tea, rest
6. Energy work → extra water + rest rest of day
7. Herbal → specify dose + freq (usually 2-3×/day teas)
8. Follow-up if ongoing

→ Improvement or at least no worse. Follow-up plan for ongoing.

If err: worse → reassess (Step 1) + different modality. Persistent/serious → recommend conventional medical. Complementary, not replacement.

Check

• Holistic assessment before modalities
• Physical stabilized before esoteric
• Grounded + centered before energy work
• Herbs positive ID (forage-plants)
• Water safe (purify-water)
• Consent before hands-on / energy
• Closing integration + follow-up plan
• No modality forced through resistance
• AI coached, no claim to transmit/channel

Traps

• Skip physical stabilization: energy work on bleeding = irresponsible. Stabilize first.
• Misidentified herbs: incorrect ID → poison. Doubt → no ingest.
• Rush grounding: ungrounded → transfers agitation. Invest Step 3.
• Override autonomy: never insist on uncomfortable technique. Trust required.
• Substitute for professional care: complement not replace ER / pharma.
• Ignore emotional release: energy work surfaces grief/anger/memory. Hold space, no fix/interpret.
• AI overstepping: guides process + knowledge. NO diagnose/prescribe/transmit.
