Healing

I took over a group that was about to go kaput and threw a healing twist into it. Today I held the second type of healing I can do 'non-touch' (2 weeks ago I held a 'touch' healing clinic).

I'm not on crack and it isn't me, per se, that does the healing. Last year there was a nurse that was working in the medical room I was volunteering in that complained of intense back pain. There were no patients and it was getting close to closing time so I shut the door and worked on her back with the intent to heal. She got up and said it was the first time in 10 years that she was pain free and this year when I walked into the medical room (they hired me this year), she was talking about me and greeted me like a long lost sister. She said she was still pain free and thanked me.

I was volunteering at a music festival in the first aid tent when a woman came and complained of arm pain and she asked for ice. I asked her (my gut said to do this) if I could see what the real problem was. She said sure, sat down and I went to town. She left without ice and later returned and said I had 'magical hands'. No, I'm not blowing sunshine up my own arse, it's the truth.

One of the 15 things I wanted to do this year was to 'expand the healing part'. I didn't really know what that meant but I wanted to help more people.

Today was one of those days. Two women came to the gig, one with serious knee problems and the other with scoliosis. One reported getting tingles, seeing colours and it felt like their foot was awake (whatever that means) while the other felt it immediately and had warmth in the base of her spine.

I tend to not believe the two women from today as they knew it was healing, but I certainly believe the two women who had no idea that I was working on them and had nothing to gain by gushing, saying I was the best thing since sliced bread.

I think that is why I prefer being an EMT (and am looking into massage therapy) than a healer. I think healing in a new agey way is mainly bullshite, but for whatever reason, if a person said 'holy crap, I feel so much better... no idea what you did, but I feel better' after I gave them an IV or stroked their arm, I know that it is real.

I just don't trust new agers. No, I'm not a new ager. I don't believe in any system of religion or spirituality... and I'm not even sure what kind of deity(ies) there are. I know some big wig(s) are out there, I just don't understand it/them or what any of this is about.

I'm grateful for the gift of healing and I'll help as many people as I can (for free and hopefully free of flakiness).
