Healing Touch Presentations Class

Ever since I coordinated a Healing Touch Presentations Class in Cincinnati I have been preparing myself mentally, emotionally to give presentations to groups. . .various types of groups: church communities, assisted living facilities, community groups and so forth. My mental and emotional preparations may take the form of affirmations. Affirmations such as: "I believe I am always divinely guided. I believe I will take the right turn of the road. I believe God will make a way for me where there is no way," support me. That is one affirmation I use many times over the day. I also like these: " I am true to myself," "I am free," and "I am in optimum health." I also prepare physically by exercising daily. That can mean 30 minutes of yoga followed by a walk in the park or biking. Or I may attend a Zumba class at the health facility where I am a member. Or it may mean several hours of cleaning my home (this can be pleasant knowing that I am creating a living environment that is pleasant, clean and inviting but I must remember to stop before exhaustion!). In other words there are various ways in which I take care of myself physically. Spiritually I connect with God many times over the day. There may be certain prayers such as the Lord's Prayer that I say but it also can mean having a conversation with God and waiting for some kind of response. This response takes the form of an inner knowing, a feeling of peace within myself, and being centered in knowing that my desire to serve is being met. All of this preparation also holds true for Healing Touch sessions I have for clients although there is more preparation when I am actually physically present with the client.

Back to the topic of Presentation of Healing Touch. It's a period of time, usually an hour, where I am educating and giving information on the changing state of health care, the advantages and things lacking in our present state of health care, and how healing touch, as a complementary modality, can be used to enhance our present state of heal care. The power point program also discusses research into healing touch and the many scientific studies on it's significance in health care. I also tell about amazing experiences I have with healing touch and the discussions that follow are quite animated especially if the participants have had some experience of energy work themselves. So, my point in this blog is to state how exciting this part of my "job" is and how much I love getting the word out that energy work (quantum touch, quantum science) can help alleviate pain, assist healing pre and post surgery, relax and rejuvenate and promote wellness.

Receiving Healing Touch

Last Wednesday at our regular 2 hour volunteer stint at Hospice of Cincinnati the other 3 practitioners provided me with Healing Touch. It was great! I had had myafacial work done the day before and my muscles were a bit fatigued. That's a nice way of saying they hurt like crazy! In fact, my left hip has been painful off and on since last September when I injured it moving tree limbs that had fallen in the yard. Perhaps you remember it too...the day of the Cincinnati "hurricane." So I had some myafacial work and was really sore. My 3 friends, the Healing Touch Practitioners, suggested I receive some energy and hopefully release that trauma I was still feeling in my hip. While it felt great to lie down and relax there were times when the energy was congested and about to be released. That was uncomfortable. That sometimes happens when it's moving and releasing. By the time they were done and confirmed that my energy field was clear and smooth I felt so much better. In fact, I had so much energy later on that I went biking on the trail near me. I find that pretty amazing. I didn't need Motrin or Tylenol to get rid of that pain. . .just some friends who had been trained in how to move and manipulate my energy field.
