One of the reasons I decided to be a medicine man was several occurences of spontaneous healing in my teens. For example, my friend had severed all the tendons in her hand on a broken headlight, when I just touched her fingers with mine and an incredible rush of energy seemed to go from my hand into hers. The doctors had told her it would take at least six months to recover if at all. We continued to do this and her hand was functional after two months. That's when I took up qigong and tried to get a grip on this energy, focusing it and refining my ability to channel it in the desired direction. Later I have discovered that when I treat a massage-client with an unexpressed need for extra healing I will instinctively go into "power-mode" and provide it to the extent that other people in the vicinity can feel it too.
Have any of you had similar experiences? I'd love to hear about it, and if that has influenced you in other areas. |
