From the conception of the Orian Technique in 1994 to what ThetaHealing™ has become in the present day, it has been quite a journey. This journey has been shared with the wonderful ThetaHealing practitioners and instructors that support the work. ThetaHealing continues to grow as a beautiful tree in spring; watered by the interest of people around the world.
My name is Vianna. I am the founder of what has become ThetaHealing. I was born with an inherent intuitive ability, although it was not my original plan to use these abilities for healing. I began an initial study of Taoism, nutrition, and herbs because of personal health problems. These interests eventually led me on the path to “Nature's Path” which is the name of my business. This path originally began in 1990 when I divorced my husband of ten years and had three children to raise.
I had heard that the government was required to hire a certain number of women for the Department of Energy. This facility was relatively close to where I lived in Idaho Falls , Idaho . My plan was to work at what is called the “Site” in nuclear security and still pursue my true interest in art. I knew that the bus ride to work would be long, but the pay and benefits were worth the effort.
It was in 1991 that I began the training for the job of a nuclear security guard. Competition in the training was fierce and I had to learn skills that pushed me to the limit. After passing and receiving my year-long training I took a job at a nearby manufacturing plant. In the mean time, I waited for my security clearance to work for the Government. During this time I never forgot my other interests. On breaks I would draw sketches of the employees and give them short intuitive readings. This was shift work, and I would often work midnights to morning. As a single mother with three young children to support, I soon decided that working as a security guard at a manufacturing plant did not offer the future that I wanted for us. I knew that something had to change. Health problems added the incentive I needed to concentrate on the study of Naturopathic Medicine. Once I had passed the course in Naturopathic Medicine, in March of 1994 I opened a business, offering full-time massage, nutritional counseling, and Naturopathic Practice.
I came to the realization that I was following my life's path when the doors began to open. I met a psychic who suggested that I do readings for income. As if by magic I had an office to work in, and from the first day on I always had clients to see. Within the first week I had met my best friend and had established repeat clients for readings. It was during these readings that I found that if I would listen, the voice of the Creator would give me instructions. I became quite good at the readings and was asked to do classes on the technique I was using. This was my beginning as a medical intuitive. From this time forward my metaphysical experiences increased exponentially to quantify who I was to become.
Meanwhile, I had developed a severe problem with my right leg. It would intermittently swell up to twice its normal size. Due to the inflammation and severe pain, I decided it was wise to seek conventional medical help. In August of 1995, I was diagnosed with bone cancer. I was told that I had a tumor in my right femur. At first every test that they performed confirmed this to be true. The bone specialist told me that he had seen only two other cases like mine. He also informed me that he felt amputation might be my best option. This, he said, would give me a little more time to live.
I felt as though darkness was gathering about me, and my ordeal was not over yet. My doctor sent me to the University of Utah for a biopsy. I was told that the procedure required that my leg be opened, allowing the doctor to go in and scrape my femur from the inside of the bone for a sample. I had no choice but to travel for four hours, in excruciating pain, for the biopsy. My husband at the time drove me to Utah and I was admitted into the hospital. It was necessary for me to be awake for the procedure, forced to listen to the sounds of the hammer and drill. I was advised to stay in the hospital overnight. Blake, my husband at the time, told the hospital staff that we were leaving because we had no insurance. I was too weak to argue with him. So, in incredible pain, I was bustled to the car and driven to spend the night at Blake's brother's house before the long drive home.
As I was leaving the hospital, I was told by the doctors that if I walked on my leg it would break. If this happened there would be no alternative but to amputate it to prevent the spread of cancer. I was also informed that I might only have a couple of months to live. This ordeal put me on crutches for six weeks; I was still in unbearable pain from the tumor.
My life seemed to be falling apart. I hobbled around on crutches, living with constant pain and doubt as to how much longer I could actually survive. Still I went forward, continuing to see clients, not because of great courage or endurance but because I had financial obligations and my young children needed me. I felt that I had no one else to send them to in the event of my death. The very thought of my children being sent to relatives, even to their father (who was paraplegic and ill), was unbearable. These thoughts gave me the will to live. Even though I was newly married to Blake, the relationship was anything but a true partnership. This relationship was an added burden to my declining health. I couldn't just give up and die leaving my children alone.
Even though I was very sick, my intuitive abilities became even more accurate, as did my connection to the Creator. I had promised to do many things in my life and I felt that I had too much to do on this Earth to give up so easily. All my life I have believed that I had a higher purpose from a promise that I made when I was seventeen. Now I was uncertain if I would complete it.
In confusion and sadness I sent forth a cry to the Creator, “Why me? Why am I loosing my leg? God, am I going to die? I have so much left to do!”
In the middle of this plea I heard a voice, loud and clear as if someone was standing right next to me in the room.
“Vianna, you are here with or without a leg, so deal with it.”
I was astonished with this answer. I didn't know it at the time, but this answer was just what I needed. In that instant I became even more determined to find a way to heal my body.
Healers from the area where I lived heard of my plight and people came from seemingly everywhere to help me. Some were wonderful healers, which I am sure kept me going through the dark times. The prayers that were made on my behalf kept me alive. I still thank God for Alice and Barbara for helping to take away the pain. I was a pitiful sight; hobbling into my office, leaning on my massage table to do massages, and painfully struggling through readings.
Adding to my dilemma, I had developed a staph infection in my leg. I decided that enough was enough! I was going to treat myself. First, let me say that I have never been against conventional medicine. I believe that we should respect the opinions of trained health care professionals, and in most cases they are likely to be correct in their decisions. Even still, I felt that in my isolated case the doctors were wrong in their diagnosis of bone cancer.
I trusted my intuition and the information I was receiving from the Creator and, undeterred, I began putting my knowledge of Naturopathy to good use. I realized that it was vital for me to focus on aggressively cleaning out my body. I began a series of lemon cleanses as well as sauna cleanses. I spent a great deal of time in the sauna; four hours a day for over two and a half weeks. I took vitamins and minerals and I prayed constantly. Through it all, I still believed the medical diagnosis that the doctors had given me was wrong, but in spite of everything I was doing to help myself, I remained very sick.
The test results for my biopsy performed by the University of Utah finally came back. The result was negative for bone cancer, which confused the doctors since every test performed had shown the tumor. The biopsy had revealed dead cells along with normal bone cells. The test result was sent to the Mayo Clinic, where they determined that I had Lymphatic Cancer that had killed the cells in my femur. I knew this to be the truth and I believed mercury poisoning had caused it. How? I knew this because I went up and asked God (or, “The Creator”). I received the message that I had been poisoned by mercury. I began to search for answers to get the mercury out of my system. I continued with cleanses, always trusting to the information that I received from the Creator. By this time my leg had physically shrunken. I was told by the doctors that in the event that I did survive, I would need physical therapy to enable me to walk correctly again.
I believed to the core of my being that God could heal in an instant. In spite of everything that was happening, I continued to trust my intuition and the feelings I had that God could heal me. Somehow I felt that I already knew how to heal myself. There was just something I was missing. I had used conventional medicine, cleanses, nutrition, oils, vitamins, affirmations, visualizations, and still I remained sick. Every time I asked the Creator, I was told that I already knew the answer and that I just had to remember how to call upon God.
The answer to my prayers came while I was in the mountains. I held a gathering with some friends where we camped out and shared a pot luck dinner. Each person that came brought a dish for the gathering. My aunt from Oregon showed up unexpectedly. She was very sick with a stomach ache. She lay down in a tent and I went inside to help her. She knew that I was a naturopath but I had no herbs with me. The intense pain that she was having led me to believe that it might be her appendix. I began to do a body scan as I had done with others hundreds of times before. I went out the top of my head through my crown chakra as I would do when giving a reading. When I was in her space I asked the Creator why she was sick and I was shown. I saw that it was Giardia and told it to go away. I witnessed as the Creator released the pain in her stomach. Within seconds it was gone. She was able to get up and felt much better. This incident gave me food for thought and encouraged me to use it again.
The next day a man came into my practice with a severe backache. Reflecting on what had happened with my aunt, I repeated the same procedure on him. Instantly, his back pain was gone. That night, I pondered over the events of the past days. I decided it was time to do the same thing to myself.
The following day I hobbled into my office excited to carry out the same procedure on my leg. I thought to myself, “It can't be this easy!” I stopped just before the door to my office and went out of my space from my crown chakra and prayed to the Creator. I then commanded a healing on myself, and it worked! My right leg, which had shrunken three inches shorter than my left leg, returned instantly to its normal size. The pain was removed, and my leg was healed. I was so incredibly excited about my healing that throughout the day I compulsively tested the strength in my newly healed leg, curious to see if the pain would return.
Today my femur continues to be healthy, all test reports are normal, and I am free of Lymphatic cancer. In my gratitude I made a vow to the Creator to give this technique to all those that wanted to learn. This was the foundation of ThetaHealing that we know and love today. Interestingly, I still have the X-ray pictures of my leg. A few years ago, the x-rays where taken to a bone specialist for a second diagnosis, and he pronounced that the owner of the leg must surely be dead!
The next person that I used the technique on was a little girl. A woman named Audrey Miller had a great-granddaughter with health difficulties. Audrey brought the child to me to be healed. She knew nothing about the instantaneous healing to my leg. I asked her, “Why did you bring her to me?” Audrey looked at me with those soulful eyes of hers and said, “God told me to bring her to you.” I remember how she walked up to me and placed the child in my arms. Her tiny arms were about the size of a fifty cent piece and she had gained no weight at all in the past two years. She was born with her legs out of their sockets and she had a heart murmur. She also had what I can only term as a “bad attitude.” I knew that I had been healed, so I told Audrey that it would take six days to heal the child, thinking that this would be plenty of time. I was excited to do this new technique; but also very anxious. I remember crying to the Creator, “Oh, dear Lord, please help me heal this child. Please, God, please, heal this child.” Then I went up to use the same procedure I had been shown. I spent six days caring for this little girl. I put her under colored lights and used the new healing technique. Each day, Audrey's daughter drove two hours a day to bring this child to me to be worked on for half an hour. The little girl was using crutches to walk, the kind that attached to her arms.
On the third day after working on her, she stood up and told me that she could walk; that she was going to walk to her grandmother without crutches. I said to her, “Oh, no honey, you can't do that yet. You are not strong enough.” But stubbornly, she told me that she was going to do it. She stood up and walked about three or four feet to her Grandmother. That was the first time she had ever walked on her own. I was totally amazed! I watched her back straighten out, and she expelled several tapeworms. Her heart murmur was gone and she started with physical therapy to learn how to walk. Now that she had the strength, she could teach her body to walk without assistance. The most amazing part of this healing was that this little girl gained two pounds in just three days, and in six days, she had gained four pounds.
Something was working! I was excited to use it on everyone with different diseases and infirmities. I started working with people who were terminally ill. People found me by word of mouth from all walks of life. I found that the healings were becoming extremely successful with clients that I already had. Soon new clients who were very sick were coming from all over the world. Many of them were healed instantly; others took a few sessions, and still others simply did not heal.
After using the procedure with varying degrees of success I came to the conclusion about why this technique was working so well. I came to believe that we were doing these healings from a Theta state of mind. I had some knowledge about Theta because my husband ex- husband, Blake, was a hypnotist. He had many books about the subconscious mind and I occasionally read from these books. My theory was that we were going into Theta to bring about these healings. If my theory was correct, then I had a breakthrough in healing and an explanation of faith healing that could be scientifically measured.
The Formation of Classes:
I knew that Theta was not a new theory of healing. Many hypnotists have tried it and have actually worked with people in the Theta State . They bring the client to a Theta state, and also bring the health practitioner to a Theta state, achieving amazing results. I was also convinced that when you call upon God in this state, you could plug in like an electrical outlet and actually heal a person instantly. We were getting extremely good results, but I knew that it could be perfected if we had a better understanding of what we were doing; so I commenced to do more investigating.
There are five different brain waves that will be covered later: Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta and Gamma. These brain waves of the human mind are constantly in motion; the brain is consistently producing waves in all of these frequencies. Everything that you do and everything you say is regulated by the frequency of the brain waves.
A Theta state is a very deep state of relaxation; the state used in hypnosis. The brain waves are slowed to a frequency of 4-7 cycles per second. Sages meditate for hours to reach this state in which they are able to access absolute, perfect calmness. Theta brain waves can be thought of as the subconscious; they govern the part of our mind that is layered between the conscious and the unconscious. They hold memories and sensations. They also govern your attitudes, your beliefs and your behaviors . Theta brain waves are always creative, inspirational, and characterized by very spiritual sensations. We believe this state allows you to act below the level of the conscious mind.
Theta is a very powerful state. It can be likened to the trance-like state that children attain when they are playing video games; when they are completely oblivious to what is going on around them. Another example of the use of Theta state is that of the Tibetan priests. In the winter, the priests place wet towels over their shoulders. Within minutes the towels are completely dry. In ancient times the Kahuna's of Hawaii accessed a Theta state to walk on hot lava.
I began to teach this technique in my classes that I held locally. During my first class, a student stood up and told me that it was absolutely impossible to hold a conscious Theta State . He said that he had been working with biofeedback for many years and unless that person was in a deep-sleep hypnotic state, they just could not “hold” a Theta state. He claimed that the other brain waves would interfere. He said that it was a great theory, but that it was impossible. I was amused by his response, and I felt more determined than ever to prove my theory.
Validation for the Theta State came when a friend and student became interested in the work. He was a physicist that worked at the Nuclear Site outside of town. He made us an electroencephalograph, and that's when things became interesting. In my classes, we hooked-up people from all healing modalities to the machine. We found that people who were Reiki practitioners utilized the high Alpha brain wave. The Alpha brain wave is a wonderful healing wave. In fact, some Japanese scientists believe strongly in the Alpha wave, because Alpha waves “remove” pain and relax the body.
We confirmed that the technique we were using to do the healings was taking us to Theta. Every single person was going into Theta, even those just learning the technique. We found that not only were the practitioners going into Theta, but the person they were working on was also going into Theta. We believed that the healings were taking place in a state of what I call God-Consciousness.
We continued to teach people as fast as we could. The classes were filled with wonderful people all eager to learn the technique. More and more people were learning and having a great time. After continued practice, I found the healings became even more detailed and impressive. The results improved and my clientele increased daily, but I still encountered a few who would not heal.
One of these people who did not seem to completely heal was a woman who had diabetes. I knew that this type of diabetes was caused by a chromosome, and although her pain disappeared, her legs got better and so many things improved, I could not keep her diabetes under control. Her blood sugar level still fluctuated dangerously. I tried everything, even commanding the body to have its perfect blueprint. I was told that this did not work because the body thinks it's perfect the way it is. It was while working with this woman that I made a very interesting discovery when I went “up” and asked to see the chromosome that caused her diabetes.
In the rapture of Theta, I was then shown another chromosome that I was told was the chromosome of Youth and Vitality. I heard the voice of the Creator guiding me in a story of human DNA. I was told that this particular chromosome had been changed throughout the history of man's evolution. In a time and consciousness that is now lost to us, we were once able to rejuvenate our bodies. We lost this ability from the DNA over thousands of years and, because of this de-evolution, this chromosome had lost the capability of true Youth and Vitality. It is in this time of enlightenment that the human race is once again ready to receive regenerated youth.
I was told that the lost keys of Youth and Vitality in the DNA code were going to be vital to human survival in the years to come. This was, in part, to be able to overcome poisons and toxins that we would be subjected to by living in our modern industrial age. I was told that as a larger degree of the population become intuitive, the more sensitive they would become to the physical world. The completion of the Youth and Vitality chromosome would help them survive.
I was so excited about the new discovery that I had forgotten all about the chromosome for diabetes. I gave the woman with diabetes a hug. I told her that I would work with her the next day and sent her home. At the time, I shared my office with my friends, Kevin and Chrissie. In glowing enthusiasm I told them all about what I had seen. I also told them that I was given instruction on how to work on the chromosome and how to complete it. They were fascinated with the concepts, and listened with intensity as I told them the process. I activated myself first and then Kevin and Chrissie. That evening I was given more information and guidance. In the coming days I was repeatedly shown how to change this chromosome until the Creator was sure that I understood the information. This was the beginning of the DNA Activation.
The Creator told me to begin with the DNA Activations, activating the phantom strands in a person's body. Understand that we are not actually adding strands to anyone; we are only awakening what is already there. I was told that through this Activation a person's intuition is improved, the ability to heal is improved, the body detoxifies and the person is able to access the different Planes of Existence effortlessly. When I used the Activation upon myself, I found that my “laugh l ines ” began to fade away and my body started rejuvenating. I felt younger.
It was at this time that I hosted a radio talk show. I scheduled myself to speak about the theta technique. When the radio staff asked me what we called the technique, I told them that I had always called it ThetaHealing. The staff advised me to choose another name because they felt that the name sounded like Scientology. I told Kevin and Chrissie about the dilemma with the radio station. We all sat down to brain-storm an alternate name. I remember laughing in our bare feet, sitting on the floor of the office. I can still see Kevin with his long red hair and infectious laughter, and Chrissie with her serious metaphysical demeanor. We remembered that the technique had been called many names. The first name I remembered was the Wilson technique, so named for remote viewers in 1928. But we went even further back in time. Kevin and I agreed upon the name Orian (spelled with an “a”). This is the alternate name that we used.
Today we use the name ThetaHealing for the brain wave theta, originating from the Egyptian and Greek letter theta that means, among other things, “soul.” For the first few years I used the name Orian, but the name ThetaHealing was more to my liking. Orian was originally associated with the DNA Activation, while ThetaHealing represents the complete healing modality. ThetaHealing stems from thousands of readings, not to mention hundreds of classes and seminars that I have done. Today it is known by both the names Orian and ThetaHealing, but ThetaHealing has become main-stream. From this time ThetaHealing began to take on a living essence of its own.
Then I received a message from the Creator. In spite of all that was happening in my personal life, the Creator told me to take this information to the world and to share it with others. I told the Creator that I was the wrong person to do this. In fact, I spent several hours discussing it with the Creator. I'd already given my word to Creator to take it to the world, but by this time the true ramifications of this responsibility had hit home.
I remember reasoning with Creator, and I said, “Okay, if you want me to take this to the world, then send me a doctor; one who can tell me that this is the way a chromosome actually works; a doctor that will actually listen to me. A doctor who is open enough to spiritualism to listen to what I have to say of validation. You also need to send me someone to write a book, because I am just too busy.” I was perplexed when the Creator said, “You will write the book Vianna.”
I had many reasons for asking for all this. At that particular time in my life, my son's wife was pregnant and so was my daughter, and they were all living in my home. I was in the middle of a nasty divorce, and I was taking care of all these people by myself. I felt like my whole world was falling apart right before my eyes, and in the midst of all of this, I was being told by Creator to take ThetaHealing to the world! I just couldn't understand how I could do any more than I was already doing. But I also knew that God never asks you to do anything without providing a way for you to do it.
Shortly thereafter, Audrey Miller came into my office quite unexpectedly and told me that I was going to the Universal Light Workers Conference. I had seen their flyer and had a desire to go, but financially I could not afford it. This wonderful woman was willing to pay my fare and all of my expenses, including my food and everything that I needed. She told me that I needed to meet with a doctor that was speaking there. Apparently, this doctor spoke about DNA. Audrey knew about the DNA Activation that I was doing and thought that the two of us should meet. This was validation enough for me. When it came near the time to go, I balked because I didn't want to leave my children at such a difficult time in their lives. The more I thought about it, the worse I felt. I made myself sick with anxiety. I was torn between staying and going. Needless to say, by the time I got to the conference, I was feeling pretty wrung out.
The first person that I met at the conference was the doctor I asked God to show me. At the time he was doing extensive work with lasers and the DNA. He seemed to be open-minded, so I tentatively began to tell him about what I was visualizing in the DNA Activation. As we talked he told me the names and functions of everything that I was seeing in the chromosomes: the shadow chromosomes, the telomeres and everything else that I had been observing. He not only validated what I was seeing, but he said it was unlikely that I could have known some of this without having been instructed in some way. I told him that this is what God had shown me, and that inside the brain was the Central Cell (called so by my friend Kevin) that was located in the Pineal Gland. This “Master Cell” (as the doctor called it) is the creation point for sending messages to the rest of the body. I apparently piqued his curiosity. After our meeting he called on me to remote view clients as he visited them. He tested me with these people, and asked me questions as to what I could “see” in their bodies. He not only confirmed what I had seen, but his curiosity in my ability to “see” what was going on in the body allowed me to know that I was viewing something real.
At this same conference I met Robert, who was a publisher. He had been involved with metaphysics before and as we talked he became interested in the DNA knowledge. We agreed that he should come to Idaho to transcribe the channeled material. I recorded the DNA Activation technique for him. He and I had agreed to co-author the small book. But when he took the recordings home to California , he wrote it and published it in pamphlet form, listing himself as the main author with my name in small print at the bottom. Much to my dismay, he had changed the material so much, and added so much filler that it had little to do with the original knowledge that I had given him. This book came out in 1997. This was a great disappointment to me and a betrayal of my trust; however, it encouraged me to re-write the book and publish it myself. By this time I felt that I could not trust anyone to compile the books, even my close friends. I decided to write the information in the true form that it came to me from Creator so that the dictates were not lost. God had once again worked in a strange way, and I was guided by a Divine plan.
My first version of the transcribed ThetaHealing book was called “Go Up and Seek God.” True to my word to the Creator, I began to teach classes throughout the United States in 1998. These were the first of the DNA 1 classes where I taught the DNA Activation and the early Orian Technique. In 1999, I created the first Teachers Course to certify teachers in the Orian Technique that was held at a place called Triple Creek in La Bell, Idaho. This course has come a long way since that time. A DNA 2 Teachers Manual was developed for it and is updated constantly. It is now taught several times a year and I have been certifying teachers ever since. The Creator was right; I would take the technique to the world.
I continued to see clients, and by the end of 1999 I had done over 20,000 readings and healings. As time went on I received more information and transcribed the book ”Go Up and Work with God” in the year 2000. About this time, the DNA 1 Class (in what was then a two day class) had grown into what became known as DNA 2, into a three day class in order to encompass the Belief Work. By the year 2000 I began teaching internationally.
One of the greatest things I discovered while working on clients is that we hold the keys to our own health, to our bodies, and our own vitality. In “Go up and Work with God,” the knowledge of the Belief Work that came to me and was put on paper. This information allows you to change your Beliefs, and the systems that guide your decisions all in an instant. These are the Beliefs and Programs you have learned from childhood and from other aspects of your being , of all that you are. Some of these Beliefs and Programs have been passed on from generation to generation.
In the following pages you will learn how to work on four different Levels of all that you are: The Core Belief Level , the Genetic Level , the History Level , and the Soul Level . It is through the removal and replacement of Programs from these four Levels that enables the body to conquer physical illness and remove emotional blockage. The Belief Work will enable you to create the life that you want for yourself, for it is a truth that we create our own reality and that we are all connected to God. I am going to share with you the tools to change what you formerly believed, and the negative effect these beliefs have had on you, and allow you to create the life you desire.
In the year 2000, a new class was shown to me called “Psychic Anatomy.” I have since changed the name of this class to “Intuitive Anatomy.” The first class was held at my old Idaho Falls Idaho , Channing Way offices. This class was designed to assist people in their abilities to “see” the inside of the body for healing as an aid to the Theta-Technique. The body of knowledge of this class is held in the Intuitive Anatomy Manual, published in 2003 and I now certify teachers for this class as well.
By the end of 2002, I had given almost 35,000 readings. The techniques that I learned in these sessions and classes are the beginning foundations for this book.
In 2003, the Feeling Work was added to the Belief Work. I was told that certain people had never experienced particular feelings their whole lives, nor do they understand how to create them. I was told that these “Feelings” could be “Downloaded” into them from the Creator with their permission. Since the time that “Go Up and Work with God” was written there has been a considerable amount of knowledge that has been collected to form the Advanced DNA 2 Class Manual.
In 2003, the first Advanced Class was held in Santa Rosa , California , and the first Advanced Teachers Course was in 2004. This class was designed to get people ready for DNA 3 and to clarify the Planes of Existence, as will be explained further in this book. We will all be closer to DNA 3 when we have removed enough Programs and downloaded enough Feelings to bring us to enlightenment. The Thetahealing “tree” continues to grow as new information brings it into bloom. Inside this book is the new information compiled from all the readings, healings and classes of ThetaHealing to date, from the first instantaneous healing of my leg until the present day.
These are the first two chapters of Vianna's book called 'ThetaHealing™'
