How Long for Ho'oponopono to Work?

When trying to overcome an awful problem and wondering how long for ho'oponopono to work successfully, rest assured there is light at the end of the tunnel for you.

The reality is that ho'oponopono starts working from the initial the moment you start to clean.cleaning

The process is not something that should be rushed, yet it is working cumulatively all the time you're practising it.

We all need time for our mental state to adjust to changes, physical or emotional.

As to how fast ho'oponopono works, consider that rarely does change occur overnight.

Healing Time

However, the healing process does begin as soon as the ho'oponopono prayer or mantra is begun and practised in earnest, regularly and consistently.

The initial healing is generally manifest as a feeling of lightness starting to replace the heaviness that has weighed you down for what seems a very long time.

Day to day experiences that were previously seen as disconsolate problems begin to lose their heaviness and darkness, becoming less dismal as each day passes.

So the healing schedule isn't so much of a repeatable timetable, rather more of a lightening of the load over time until all traces of the heaviness has been lifted.

Subconscious Process

The subconscious, which is a part of your mind that manages all of the life processes in your physical body, requires a certain amount of time to elapse in order to allow change to happen safely.

The mind needs to prepare. It has to enact the change in a suitable time frame.

In the case of the memories of past traumatic events that carry heavy emotional burdens throughout life, it is reasonable to accept that it took a long time to become rooted deeply in the subconscious and manifest in negative behavioural tendencies.

Similarly, it will take time to reverse that situation through the healing and mental cleaning process of ho'oponopono.

It's not a simple matter of erasing all of the karmic information buried and retained in your memory, which is causing you to feel and act the way you do.

It's the same for erasing any of the karmic information being run by your subconscious on a day to day basis.

Simply removing it and replacing it with the healing light of Divinity doesn't assure an instant improvement or overnight success.

A Disadvantage of Ho'oponopono

While it may be perceived that all things are advantageous by using ho'oponopono to clean, heal and improve a person's lot in life, there is one downside.

There are a number of objective reports that for some people, things appear to get worse before they start to improve. This is actually a normal thing to happen.

If you think of how surgery affects a person, time is needed for recovery before any improvement is noticed. Chronic illnesses, similarly don't clear themselves up overnight after taking a pill so you can go off to work feeling great the next day!

Well known ho'oponopono practitioner Morrnah Nalamaku Simeona acknowledges that despite the healing taking place gradually from the start, some time is required for changes to become apparent.

Self Talk

A real problem we all have to overcome is that our everyday world is managed by our inner conversations we have with ourselves, or self-talk.

It is well known among psychologists that the more a person tells themselves that they are unhappy, sick, depressed, or in a ″bad relationship″, the more it continues.

Morrnah Simeona believes that performing the ho'oponopono prayer repeatedly and deliberately can help to alleviate this problem. That's because the more we use our self-talk to repeat the four-phrase mantra, the less of that self-talk is available to be used to negatively direct our everyday world.

For reference, it is documented that Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len's daughter, who was born with a chronic skin condition, was cured with ho'oponopono. However, the whole process lasted around eight months before it vanished completely.

Summary

Asking how long ho'oponopono takes to work may not be the correct or relevant question here.

Patience should be observed and a gradual healing should be expected, in direct relation to the amount of dedicated mental cleaning is performed every day.

It would be far better to ask yourself, ″To improve my life, what cleaning will I perform today?″

Ho'oponopono will work for you if you let it work its wonders in whatever time it needs.
