Energy is evertything

In two months my son will be 21. Wow…I’m already getting nostalgic. The greatest gifts I have ever received are the gifts of my children. They are both truly amazing young adults; both are kind, caring, intelligent, loving adults who go out of their way to make life better for others. Their futures are bright and beautiful! Their energy radiates out to all.

When my son was only 2 years old he had a life changing accident. He doesn’t really remember it, but it altered the path of my life forever. He fell and incurred a compound fracture on his left elbow. When I picked him up, his arm was dangling at the elbow and the bones were sticking out of his skin. Hours later, after his surgery, the orthopedic surgeon said he would never obtain full mobility of his arm, even after extensive surgery and physical therapy. It was heart wrenching to see a baby, my baby, go through that.

The following day as I was sitting on my porch a stranger walked by, stopped to chat, and proceeded to gently wave his hands over my sons elbow. He asked me about his injury. Through many tears, I shared the story – the whole time he kept passing his hands back and forth above his cast. Sometime during that conversation, he mentioned that he worked for Focus Hope and had just returned from a trip to India where he studied an ancient form of energy healing. He went on to say that he was using the technique on my son. At 20 something, I have to say it freaked me out a little, but since I was open to many things I simply sat and watched.

Weeks later the surgeon took X-rays and said it looked like he was healing fine so another surgery was done; they took the cast off and removed the pins that held the elbow in place. We had to wait another two weeks for my son’s follow up appointment and, at that time, were supposed to schedule physical therapy. On the morning of the appointment, we were waiting in the exam room for the doctor. Like any two year old, he was all over the place. When the doctor walked in, my son was hanging from a bar, with his arm FULLY EXTENDED! The doctor was shocked, literally had to sit down for a second to catch his breath. He began to speak, quietly, saying, “It’s a miracle. He has 90% mobility in that arm, with seemingly no pain. As far as I’m concerned he doesn’t need any further treatment.” Of course, I cried. Miracle, energy healing, whatever it was, I was beyond thankful for his recovery.

So began my journey into alternative healing methods, including energy healing. I’ve been studying and practicing various forms for almost 19 years now. Why am I sharing this now? Next weekend I will be taking the Level 1 Healing Workshop on Pranic Healing with my friend Rose Fritsch, through the Pranic Healing teachings of Grand Master Choa Kok Sui. Prana is your life force and Pranic Healing is a simple, powerful form of energy healing based on the body’s ability to heal itself. In my opinion, energy is all things and each one of us has the ability to heal ourselves and others. You can see a video on the subject on the Bliss Networkers page of my website. There’s also a schedule of free intro classes and workshops on The Bliss Network Events page. Take a look and visit one of the lectures or come take the workshop with me…It just might change the course of your life, too!
