Dr. Robert Cote Shows People How to Heal Themselves

“Alpha Alignment is about aligning the physical body, the mind and the spirit,” says Alpha Alignment practitioner Robert Cote. “I clear all the energy blockages, and it brings your mind into alpha. It’s a relaxing wave. In beta wave we think, and we use a lot of energy. When you change the channel of the wave into alpha, you come to a point of healing and the energy just unblocks.”

Robert Cote, a former chiropractor, has been aligning people for the last 18 years. He swears by it and receives regular sessions himself. “I get aligned by other people,” he says. “My kids have been aligned every week since they were born. They are really in tune with life. They know who to trust and not to trust. They are really smart. Life is all about energy.”

Cote doesn’t channel any energy though. Instead he magically unblocks it with nothing more but his hands. The technique is very simple. It only takes two minutes, and people have instant results. It can be learnt by anyone, even kids.

“I would love for everybody to learn the alignment,” he says. “It’s very easy to do. My goddaughter has Down syndrome, and she aligned me. She is eight years old, and she’s healing herself now.”

Most of his clients come for a session once a month, and they come to see him for all sorts of issues; back pain, cancer, stress, burnout, depression. He compares it to an hour of meditation, and there are no side effects or dangers involved according to Cote. The only thing that can occur is that “nothing” happens (if the practitioner is not sensitive enough). But usually people should feel calm and relaxed immediately. “Alpha waves are healing waves,” he says. “But the practitioner needs to be intuitive.”

So how does he get people into a state of calmness within two minutes?

“The nervous system is affected, and you calm down,” he says. “It’s all natural. It’s like a pulling. Everything is about energy. When I want to jump in the air. I need to push off. I pull your head, your arms or your legs, and the nervous system becomes elongated and calm. Your brain will decide where to direct energy to. You might need energy in your lower back, but it’s blocked. Once you stop thinking consciously, the unconscious brain will think, ‘Oh I need energy in the lower back.’ And the energy will flow straight into your lower back.”

There are three things that Cote teaches people. The first thing is that people have to heal themselves. “You have to heal every part of your body, because if a part of your body doesn’t heal, like your liver… you become weak.” The second thing is that you have to know everything. You have to know who to trust. You have to know where you are going. You have to know your purpose in life. And the third thing is that you have to create your life. “Most people don’t do that. They are victims of life. I work on an energy level where people can create their life. You always heal yourself. You can have a disease, but that means separation from yourself. “

Cote loves aligning kids and babies. “People ask me, ‘Why babies?’ The worst thing that can happen to your nervous system is your birth. That’s the most traumatic thing.” And he’s not only brilliant with babies, but also women who aspire to become mothers. “There are some women who come, and they say, ‘I can’t get pregnant. My menstruation is not normal.’ And many of them get pregnant afterwards just from unblocking energy.

“The first girl I aligned was 14 years old. She came to see me when I was still a chiropractor. She had a knee problem. I adjusted her, but she came back six months later. And the dad said, ‘You fixed her knee but now it’s worse. The pain came back. We went to see a doctor and he put her in a cast. Now she has pain in the knee, her leg and the neck because of the cast.’ I thought, ok I’m going to try the alignment. She cried a bit. She was going through a lot of emotions. But she went home that night and had her first menstruation. She went to her dad and said, ‘I’m pregnant.’ And her dad said, ‘What are you talking about?’ And she said, ‘They taught me that when I get my menstruation I will be pregnant.’ And her dad corrected her and said, ‘No, when you get your menstruation you could get pregnant.’ She realized that that she had the wrong information in her head. She had blocked her menstruation for two years because of that. Menstruation is L4, the same nerve as the knee. I released that energy that she had blocked.”

Cote also refers to the alignment as a bath or shower of the nervous system. “It’s cleaning the nervous system, and everybody needs this in this stressful world that we live in. We’re all gathering information from books, TV, people… we need to clean the nervous system.”

Cote’s goal is to nurture and bring out people’s potential. He wants them to know that they can do something about their issues and that they have the power to heal themselves. After all, we create our own life.
