A spiritual attachment is energy from another person, actually another spirit as we are all spirits, that has attached itself to ours. A lot of my work with clients has to do with removing these attachments. Before going on to the most common types, I want to say a few words about the nature of spiritual attachments. We all have them. They block our energy in various ways. Spiritual attachments that come from another person have to do with an unresolved emotional connection. It can literally be anything, love, hate, lust, jealousy, envy, desire, trauma, you name it. The point is that the energetic attachment is formed by the persistent and not fully resolved emotion. These energetic attachments hook into us like a harpoon into a wale and keep us from swimming freely through the ocean of our lives.

I will talk about particular aspects of attachments in other blogs. For now, here are the most common sources.

Family: This is by far the most common source. It makes sense, of course. For most of us, the most important figures in our lives, especially the formative years, are family. We also often have intense, suppressed, and long-lasting emotions regarding family. Spiritual attachments to family members often go the deepest and can have profound implications to ones life and happiness.

Current and Ex Lovers and Spouses: Definitely a strong second. Passion, love, lust, rejection, anger, hurt, and desire are strong energies that form strong spiritual attachments. Like family, lovers and spouses, both past and current, can be responsible for deep and significant spiritual attachments.

Friends and Acquaintances: A distant third. There are many different levels of emotional intensity in seemingly casual relationships. The vary nature of the relationship being casual means that you may not have a lot of insight into the undercurrents in the other person. So, you can easily become an unwitting victim of their anger, mistrust, envy, or indeed, their desire. All of theses emotions can form energy attachments from their spirit to your spirit.

Coworkers, Bosses and Employees: Many of my clients are business owners or executives. I am sometimes amazed by the sheer number and weight of attachments they have from their employees. Of, course it works the other way too. I have to pull off the bosses or the manager’s attachments from employees as well. Typically these attachments are very minor. Not something that would significantly effect the course of ones life, but never the less, a drag on the system and a lightening of the load when they are gone.

Now, for an interesting tidbit. It doesn’t seem to matter how long ago these attachments were formed. They can last decades and dare I say it, lifetimes, but that is another topic. Also, since these are essentially spiritual attachments, they can and often do persist after death. However, removing them works the same either way.

There are also less common sources of spiritual attachments that I will address in other blogs.

I hope this is interesting and helpful to some of you. You can find more about spiritual attachments and spiritual development in my book Soulbaby: A Spiritual Odyssey

Thank you.

A friend of mine noticed that I was not my usual self and was having problems manifesting prosperity. She told me she had a period of “stuckness” and had good results from an energy healer named Michael Roland and recommended me to go to his website.

I’d tried other energy healings and treatments which helped considerably, but I had some doubts because so far nothing had made me feel like “the old me”—active, enthusiastic, intelligent, self-confident, helpful—I was in grief, missing the best parts of me.

I even lost confidence in my mind-body exercises, meditation, and crystals. I felt like I couldn’t clear myself and was on edge, unmotivated, and totally distracted with no sense of time. People either ignored me or acted angry around me. I was also angry from deferring and giving in to others.

My brain was foggy, confused, and I wasn’t able to trust my intuition. I’d “zone out” during meditation and while listening and kept replaying negative events that led up to my divorce and my leaving of spiritual groups. I had stinging skin sensations like I’d been slapped over most of my body.

I withdrew from friends and holed up at home, but couldn’t rest. An inordinate amount of problems at work and dwindling savings due to lack of work made me look haggard. I felt overwhelmed and kept thinking something was wrong with me.

I finally went to Michael’s website and read his articles about Emotional and Spiritual Renewal, energy blockages, and spiritual attachments. I liked the fact that Michael was trained in these skills in China and was also an Acupuncturist. His distance healing services are very affordable.

After a few e-mails, I got to know Michael better and liked his warmth, sincerity, and kind concern. I made an appointment on his website and he called me at home on time. He put me at ease right away with his nice voice and humble confidence. He asked what I would like to accomplish in this session and then tuned in to my energy and began to read what was going on.

Michael is very much in tune with psychic energies.  He asked about people from a spiritual group I belonged to and determined who was in my energy and why they were there. He worked with me to send these people far away. In my mind’s eye I could see them go. He also found that I needed to see myself far away from a different spiritual organization. As Michael told me about these people, I finally realized why I felt crushed by them and why I no longer wanted to do my spiritual practices. He also found that I still had attachments to and from my ex and cleared these.

I felt optimistic and empowered because he found more than other healers and not only helped me to remove attachments, but told me what to do to keep them away this time. He gave me a meditation, hand mudra, and mantra to rely on myself more to rebuild my crushed Spiritual energy field. Michael’s message to me was to empower myself without associations and to keep disassociating and clearing so I can rely on myself.

Michael answered all my questions and even though there are still some things to be cleared, I feel I have clarity and understanding, an improved outlook, more compassion for myself, and feel more willing to take an active role in my own life. I felt lighter and freer after our session and felt my energy shifting in my head. My face looks more relaxed and for the past two days, I’ve felt my second and first chakras lit up with energy. I also have had increased opportunities for work and people have been more generous and friendly toward me.

Thank you, Michael, for the gift of your compassionate spirit! Your work is just what people need to get their life back on track. I will definitely work with you for healing other areas of my life.

Caution: If you have experienced sexual abuse, do not read the material presented below unless you have already done work around the issue of your abuse either with professionals in the field, or by some other means, and you have come to a place where you  feel you can safely explore removing the last remnants of the energetic patterns associated with your trauma. Thank you. 

Note: Obviously either sex can be a perpetrator or a victim of sexual abuse, I have used the masculine and feminine below only to simplify the writing.

Sexual abuse touches its victims at every level of their being. The remnants of the traumatic events and remnants the predator himself can be found, in the psyche, in the body, in the energy system and even in the spiritual material itself. In therapy these remnants can be accessed through talk, therapeutic touch, acupuncture of the meridian system and even through work of the subtlest energies that relate to the spirit. So often during your personal journey, you have done remarkable work with various therapies, yet the deepest energetic blocks remain at the level of the spiritual material. You must realize that the perpetrator himself has never let go of you. Many victims of sexual abuse have learned to survive the abuse, but on the journey, you must learn to thrive and the next step of the journey is to remove the spiritual attachments of the predator.

These attachmentss can last your entire lifetime, as even in death the predator often does not release you. The perpetrator feels that he is justified in his actions. He feels he has a right to posses you. Either consciously or unconsciously, he believes that his spiritual hooks into you cannot be seen, nor can they be undone. Of course, his actions were never justified. He has no right to possess you. His energetic hooks into you can be found and they can be removed.

He can become enormously angry when confronted by someone who can expose him and release his hold on you. This is not to be feared as it is only evidence that he is weakening and being forced to let go.

The spiritual hook of the sexual predator can be the last residue within you. You must be compassionate towards yourself when you realize the perpetrator has not let go.  If you do not feel totally free, do not blame yourself. You have done the personal and bodywork necessary to confront the effects of the abuse. Be proud of what you have accomplished and the therapies you have embarked upon to bring you to this place in the journey.

British philosopher Alan Watts once said, “Making a New Years resolution is like broadcasting your intentions to the Devil.”

Thankfully my experience in the spiritual realm tells me that there is no Devil (with a big D and big horns). However there are forces at work that try to keep you from becoming your best, that try to keep you from progressing on your spiritual journey. Usually these forces are not evil per se, but never-the-less, they do not have your best interest in mind. They do not want you to progress spiritually. In fact they want you to stay right where you are.

We all have things about ourselves, large or small, which we would like to improve. When we try to make progress on them we are often unsuccessful. Sometimes it is just because we don’t try hard enough. We don’t commit. Other times there is literally a force that somehow holds us back. These forces can be in the form of emotional or spiritual blockages.

When we make a resolution to change, we inadvertently broadcast this intention to the very forces that want us to fail. Alan Watts might have counseled that we follow the Water Course or the Way of the Tao, to try without trying to act without acting and thereby do without resolving to do. By doing so, we would not attract the attention of those who want us to fail. Ultimately this may be the best course of action, but until you become a Taoist Master it could be a little difficult to manifest.

Make this New Year a time of renewal. Remove the emotional and spiritual blockages that have been holding you back. Release you essential being that has been blocked. Move forward with Peace and Lightness of Being.

Happy New Year!

Wishing you the very best,

Michael

Emotional and Spiritual Renewal sessions with Michael Roland can permanently remove emotional and spiritual blockages.

Spiritual attachment is the persistent interconnection of another’s spiritual or emotional energy to yours. A spiritual attachment has many forms that can only be described metaphorically. It can be like a hook or a barb that penetrates your spiritual material. It can be an energy form that is interwoven or lodged within your spiritual body. It can even be a situation where the attached spirit is obsessed with you and never or rarely leaves your presence.
There are infinite reasons why this might happen, but they often fall into one of several categories. Obsession is a common cause of spiritual attachment.

In fact in some way all attachments are a form of obsession. I usually find obsessive spiritual attachments arise from emotional or sexual relationships. Intimate partners often find it difficult to let go. They will hang on spiritually even when they cannot stay physically. The simplest case is an old flame that just won’t die. They try to hang on even when all chances of being together have past. The most severe tend to be incestuous. Especially where a parent is sexually obsessed with a child and refuses to let the child go. I have found this type of spiritual attachment in mature adults who have dealt with the sexual abuse cognitively and emotionally and who’s parents have long since past, yet the spiritual attachment remains. It can be the most tenacious variety and can sometimes take many sessions to resolve.
Karmic debt can cause spiritual attachment. There are situations where you owe a spiritual debt to another. This is usually from a past life where you treated another person unfairly and must make it up. Sometimes it is a form of spiritual contract where you have agreed to help another spirit in this lifetime and you are not fulfilling that agreement. So, the spirit stays attached in some way, asking for you to fulfill that obligation.
Injustice or perceived injustice can cause another spirit to attach itself to your spirit. The reasons are too numerous to consider here, but usually it happens when another person is angry or jealous because of some real or perceived slight. This can occur in the family, in the work place, or literally anywhere. These are easy to relieve in most cases.
Magic, shamanism, and other forms of energy and spiritual manipulation can cause attachments. These can be extremely difficult to remove and must be approached with utmost care, especially when the recipient was complaisant. A version of this can also occur in master/disciple teacher/student and other similar relationships.
Deep concern about another person can cause an attachment to form.
You can invite attachments or even attach yourself to another spirit. Obsessive thoughts about another person or holding grudges can cause your spirit to attach to theirs. Placing yourself in or remaining in or around unpleasant people or environments can also increase the likelihood of attachments.
Usually I consider attachments to be adverse to your spiritual health, even your physical health. It is rare that they actually need to be there. In most cases they should be resolved.
