Theta Healing's History & Development
An Introduction
Theta Healing was 'born' to an American lady named Vianna Stibal. I use 
the term 'born' intentionally to portray the love and care she has given it's 'birth', growth and development over the years.
Just as a mother sees to it that her children are protected and looked after carefully; Vianna similarly ensures that the purity and content of Theta Healing remains constant under her direct guidance.
In 1995, Vianna was at the time, a single mother of three working as a natropathic healer and massage therapist and also giving intuitive readings. She had been diagnosed with Lymphatic cancer in her right femur and due to the severity of her illness, amputation had been recommended.
Determined to find a way to heal her own body; Vianna tried a number of alternative therapies and healings yet remained very sick. Having a strong spiritual faith, she believed that there should be no reason why she shouldn't be able to heal instantly.
The Discovery
Her prayers were answered when she spontaneously altered her healing method at a camping gathering when asked to heal her sick Aunt's stomach. This new method resulted in Vianna witnessing an instant healing for her Aunt.
Encouraged by this incident, Vianna tried this method on her own leg which had by now shrunk three inches. She went up out of her body, connected to Creator and asked that a healing take place. Again, she witnessed an instant healing with the leg returning to it's full health and size.
Since then Vianna has continued to develop this healing method and sought scientific confirmation for what happens during a healing.
Scientific Validation
Using an electrocephalograph recorder to monitor the brain wave activity of some Theta Practitioner's she had trained; it was confirmed (as Vianna had predicted) that the healers were entering a Theta brain state (a medatative state which governs the part of the mind between the conscious and unconscious) helping to form a bridge, so to speak in quickly connecting with Source energy and enabling one to access the subconscious mind.
Having such scientific proof has enabled Theta Healing to develop from strength to strength.
Belief Work
Despite Vianna's success with phenomenal results of full healings, Vianna was intrigued by the few who either didn't recover fully or those whose illness returned.
Vianna discovered that if we do not believe we deserve to heal, this will prevent a healing from taking place. This discovery has brought the development of Theta's belief work with the huge expansion of allowing Theta Healing to be applied not only to physical healings but to all areas of one's life including both emotional and spiritual healing and progression.
Feeling Work
So now that Theta could be used to help remove unconscious beliefs that oppose our conscious desires; Vianna went on to using Theta Healing to heal feelings.
Feeling work is a simple process of teaching someone how to feel positive feelings such as joy or unconditional love that they may have never experienced before or how to live without negative feelings like worry or stress which they experience too much. This is extremely catalytic in helping one to attain the positive lifestyle desired.
DNA Activation
One day whilst asking to heal a chromosome responsible for diabetes, Vianna was informed by Creator that there is a youth and vitality chromosome that is responsible for the rejuvination of the body but that it lost it's capabilities thousands of years ago during the de-evolution of man.
She was told the importance of re-activating these chromosomes now for mankind to overcome the toxin levels of modern times. Vianna was directed how to re-activate the phantom strands of the youth and vitality chromosome within the DNA which improve intuition and allow the body to detoxify and heal.
Over the years, Vianna has and continues to develop Theta Healing, teaching it's wonderful system around the world. She has recently been approached by Hay House publishers who will be publishing her Theta Healing book in the autumn this year so keep your eyes out in all good book shops to learn more about the wonders of Theta Healing.
I personally, feel very grateful for all the effort she has contributed and for the wonderful opportunity I have been given to use Theta Healing to help both myself and others to come into their full potential.
