Is Integrated Kabalistic Healing considered a new age practice?

I think some background would be helpful before I dive in. Kabbalah consisted of various Jewish esoteric practices. An example is that Jewish Kabbalists pray in certain “directions of intent” to “increase its chances of being answered favorably.”

Kabbalistic practices were sometimes carried over into modern magick religions and practices (as we see with the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn). Now, to answering your question, “spiritual healing” appears in most religions in some way (especially through prayer and spiritual warfare). Context would solve this issue more appropriately, but I’ll try my best.

Jewish Kabbalah’s practices are described like this:

Kabbalah Based Spiritual Healing addresses the inner dimensions of the blockages, disconnections and obstacles, you are experiencing in your life, as well as the breakage, suffering and pain. It is effective, because it works with the hidden dynamics within that are at the roots of dysfunction, illness, abuse or trauma. [Source]

Because it includes the word “Kabalistic,” it may be from Jewish Kabbalah. As you can see from this resource, there are also related New Age practices. The point is that this is almost a magickal practice and should not be used overall. Prayer should be the centerpiece of spiritual healing.

God bless.

Is Integrated Kabalistic Healing considered a new age practice?

My understanding is that “Integrated Kabalistic Healing” tends to refer to teachings based on Nondual Kabbalistic Healing (both registered trademarks) created by a Buddhist and former pathworker named, Jason Shulman. He also runs a site called A Society of Souls.

It depends on how you define “new age” I guess. The NKH info I can find says it doesn’t work with chakras or other energy manifestations, but they does talk about using divine eminations from the Tree of Life mixed with Buddhist thought and modern sciences. That being said it also seems to be very inward focused (e.g. “our aim is to deepen our understanding of our true selves and enhance our ability to hold new states of consciousness”).

Personally it feels a bit like a new age practice dressed up in Jewish clothing. His background in Buddhism and pathwork seems to be interwoven into his healing framework. Nothing I could find spoke directly to prayer or faith, but that’s only my impression based on 15 minutes of research.

Thank you - I did search online but nothing said whether it was new age or not. If someone you know participates in this is there a way to say you shouldn’t - without starting an argument??
