“It took me over two years for the doctors to figure out what was wrong with me. After spending lots of time and money I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, low thyroid disease. After working with Dr. Jaffe for a few short months not only are my test results normal I have my energy back full force without taking synthetic hormones the rest of my life. The techniques he uses to teach self healing are astoundingly straightforward. Once you start implementing them you feel better almost instantaneously. It’s mostly different meditation techniques that guide you into your subconscious memories that are holding you back/making you sick.
With Dr Jaffe’s deep knowledge and guidance I’ve been able to heal much more in my life then Hashimoto’s disease. I’ve grown to trust myself again and move forward in all areas of my life. For that I am eternally grateful. I continue to use the techniques he teaches daily. I hope that my story inspires others to reach out to this truly wonderful man.” Kim Shanti, Los Angeles
What is Spiritual Healing?
This exact system has helped patients to heal from many serious diseases, including some that have been unresponsive to traditional medicine and deemed irreversible or terminal.
These include both physical and psychological diseases such as advanced heart disease (atrial fibrillation and congestive heart failure), cancer (breast, lung and others), pulmonary disease (asthma and COPD), thyroid disease (Hashimoto’s), infectious diseases (Lyme, etc.), depression and anxiety disorders, and many others.
What is Sufism?
Sufism is a path of love, Divine Love, a love that is unconditional, supportive, caring and that leads to eternal happiness.
Sufism is a path of the heart that takes you home. It is a journey in love, by love and for love. There is a Sufi saying that when you know yourself, you know God. Sufism is a journey to the deepest most profound love that will totally transform your life. That will take you from the darkness of this material world to the light of Divine Love.
Sufism is a journey of purification and transformation that leads you to experience the unity of divine love that exists in each of us and all created beings. It is a way of love, peace, compassion, freedom, justice and beauty. It is a way of living through the lens of Divine Light and Love.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is spiritual healing?
Spiritual healing is a holistic approach to healing that goes beyond the physical body to the other bodies and also your soul.
It is not linked to a particular religion. It is not faith healing – even very sceptical people can be healed. The spiritual aspect refers to spiritual energy working at a deep level on our spiritual being. The healing involves the transfer of energy; in other words, it is not from the healer him or herself, but the healer links with ‘Universal’ or Divine energy to channel healing for the mind, body, and spirit.
How does spiritual healing work?
In a Sufi spiritual healing the Sufi healer and client sit together to access the light of God; this creates an environment of safety and protection.
The healer channels the light of God and gently explores the particular issue with a client to receive Divine guidance about it. This process transforms previously held limiting beliefs that may have been causing toxic emotion, illness and distress.
How long does the course last?
2.5 days. Replays available if you cannot attend live or want to re-watch.
Do I need to know anything about spiritual healing before I enroll?
This is a foundational course and therefore serves as the starting point for anyone interested in learning more about spiritual healing. More specifically, it is for anyone interested in embracing a spiritual healing path, those who would like to learn how to heal themselves from various ailments and finally, it is for those who want to learn how to heal others.
Do I have to be a certain religion to join the course?
Sufi spiritual healing will work within whatever spiritual tradition a client follows and also works for those who may not follow any specific tradition.
By learning to receive Divine guidance to “clean” old misconceptions, emotions, stories and experiences, the client is then able to live in a more empowered way.
How is this healing different?
Sufi spiritual healing uses the light of God to access the deep inner soul reality of the client. According to the Sufis the most complete healing occurs when a client is able to access the beliefs and patterns that are held within this soul reality.
During the course of the healing, old, limiting stories and beliefs are revealed and cleaned to make way for the Divine teaching.
Often the Divine teaching brings in a new expansive understanding of the issue being explored, which allows the client to live in an empowered way that is closer to their true nature, the holy way. This holy way of living is one of love, peace and compassion.
Why should I choose Sufi spiritual healing?
The clients who choose Sufi spiritual healing are often searching for a deeper sense of peace, love, wholeness and unity.
Those who are drawn to Sufi spiritual healing are ready to live in an empowered way and to gradually release old, limiting stories and belief systems that have previously held them stuck.
At its core, Sufi spiritual healing uses the light of God to illuminate the deep teaching behind life’s issues and experiences. The teachings often assist clients to release limiting and toxic emotions and stories.
What if I’m not a religious person?
People from all faith traditions are welcome. This includes clients who may not feel connected with the traditional understanding of God.
In the Sufi tradition, God is all loving and will meet us wherever we are. We invite you to explore the Sufi spiritual healing for yourself to experience the compassionate system of healing.
What are the next steps after this course?
The next course after the Foundations of spiritual healing and Sufism is our level 1 course. Thereafter, ….
Is there financial aid?
Yes, currently offer the course via a “pay from the heart” payment scale and model (see the registration button above). If you need additional support, please schedule a call to speak to one of our team members to find out about our other financial aid options.
Do I have to become a Sufi to take this course?
No, not at all.
Can I use Sufi healing with other treatments?
Integrative, Complementary and Traditional Western or Conventional medicine, as well as homeopathy, Chinese medicine, and other traditions all work synergistically with Sufi spiritual healing. You and your doctor can choose whichever system of medicine works best for you.
We encourage you to continue receiving care from a doctor or therapist while using the Sufi healing process; this creates a synergistic approach to healing that supports traditional medicine’s effectiveness.
Healing in the Sufi way is not meant to replace conventional medicine, but to support it.
“Like [my classmate] said, I thought I had a connection before, but in this class, I’ve learned to take my connection from something that was really abstract to something that is really beautiful and intimate and very reliable and consistent and something that I can always turn to.”
