The Healing of Sick Buildings and Sad Places
“Different places on the face of the earth have different vital effluence, different vibration, different chemical exhalation, different polarity with different stars: call it what you like, but the spirit of place is a great reality.”
D.H. Lawrence
Ancient wisdom and personal experiences teach us that our relationship with place, especially those places where we spend the most extended periods of time, fundamentally defines our mood, our patterns of thought and our habits of activity.
Landscape and the buildings and structures within it all have an inherent spirit and personality - the individual and unique essence of that place.
Sometimes the spirit of place may become damaged and the atmospheric qualities either stagnant or stressed. This can lead to health or comfort problems for people living and working there. Such buildings become known as “sick buildings”.
The World Health Organization states that 30% of all buildings are “sick buildings”.
A building may become sick due to poor air or light quality, or by issues that are less apparent and more energetic in nature.
These include disturbances or unbalanced energy flow in the landscape – generally referred to as “geopathic stress”. The residual memories or echoes of previous events may also be disturbing, especially those from battlefields and profound individual traumas. Sometimes the psychic environment can be disordered, with ghosts or other disturbed or displaced spirits present..
When our homes are sick buildings, we don’t sleep well, live well or love well, and find it difficult to achieve the refreshment or healing that we would normally expect.
Traditional healing work with places is much like working with people, only on a larger scale. Geomancy is the term traditionally used for working with the subtle qualities, moods and energy flows within landscapes large and small.
Healing is often needed in places where chronic or repeated ill health or absentee-ism is of concern, places where the background atmosphere is cold or unfriendly, where relationships, communication, productivity and effectiveness are challenged, or where sleep is of poor quality.
Our work includes resolving hauntings and poltergeist activity and restoring peace to the psychic environment.
Just as plants need the right soil conditions to flourish, when places are healthy, the people and projects within them can flourish and thrive.
