Today I did an attunement for a woman in Turkey. Every day I send energy around the world to the people on my Daily Healing List. In the spiritual/energetic realm, there is no distance. I place my hands around a ball of energy that arises naturally between them. Inside that ball of energy, I intend to connect with someone, and instantly, their energy arises between my hands. I can feel if they are upset or in pain. I can feel their energy shift as I gently send them healing energy.
Several years ago, my father was very ill. He had bleeding ulcerative colitis, and they couldn't seem to get the bleeding under control. His health was in real trouble. I started sending healing energy. A few weeks later, I called. He came to the phone, and as soon as he knew it was me he said, "You're healing my belly." I asked him how he knew. "I just knew," he said. I had told no one. My father got well. Was it because of my efforts? I will never know. But the fact that he knew tells me it had an effect.
I always have two ways to go. I can do Reiki, just Reiki, in which I channel and send the pure energy of the universe. Or, I can take the pain/illness from the person's body, literally pulling the dark energy out of them. The problem with doing that is that I generally end up with some of that dark energy in my own body, especially my hands and arms. So I have to be careful.
Most of the time, I stick with Reiki. I send and let the energy and the other person's own healing system do the work. But sometimes, like when it is somebody very close to me, or someone who is in trouble, I just go ahead and take it.
Either way, being able to do this is a gift.

A little poem
Little soul little stray
little drifter
now where will you stay
all pale and all alone
after the way
you used to make fun of things
Today I stumbled upon this lovely little poem, written by the Roman Emperor Hadrian. It's very sad, and seems to describe that sense of abandonment we all feel sometimes. As if we are all alone. As if we are small, astray and drifting. As if we are pale, alone, and ashamed of our erstwhile gaity and lightness of spirit. And who or what has kicked us out, as it were into our current exile? The author doesn't say.
Who hasn't felt this way? Before I sat with my higher self and surveyed my lives, I often felt this way. DIscovering that my life today is part of a greater pattern, an ongoing unfolding, and that my soul is never consumed in the fires of life and death, has given me courage to live.
And yes, make fun of things.

Michael S.
Michael passed away this afternoon. He was waiting for a new heart, but he had an infection his body couldn't fight. When someone's body is so wracked with illness, passing over is a relief, although they themselves may not know that until it actually happens.
The living experience death as loss. For those who pass over, it is a new beginning.

The Daily Healing List
The latest development in creating this ministry is the Daily Healing List. Every day, I pause at some point to focus my attention on channeling healing energy to people I know of who need it. So far, there are eight people in Malaysia whose names are totally unpronounceable and none of whom are known to me, a man I used to know but haven't seen for 30 years, my sister in law, an author in New Zealand and my best friend.
Right off the top, I am aware that there is no limit to the size of this list. I don't need to know the people to send them healing, and the energy grows/expands in proportion to the size of the list with no effort on my part.
This is an extremely valuable spiritual practice for me, in addition to any benefit the recipients may realize from it. Not only are my hands positively on fire, but my entire personal energy field is more present in my own ordinary awareness. This indicates to me that I am also receiving healing as a result.

Book Offers Spiritual Openings
I just finished reading a great book. It's called "You Don't Have To Die When Your Doctor Says." It's written by David Elliott, a New Zealander who has been given a terminal diagnosis of cancer, but is living in the belief that nothing is inevitable, the future is unwritten and the statistical data on his condition is really all about the past, and doesn't necessarily apply to him.
This book should be required reading for anyone who has a life-threatening illness, certainly. But I think it should be recommended reading for everyone, and especially anyone who wants to grow spiritually. David builds his arguments around some basic beliefs, among them the belief that we are responsible for our own lives, that we create our reality. He is particularly interested in how our beliefs about ourselves can create health or illness, and the distinct possibility that belief is decisive in healing. I personally find this to be a very encouraging notion. There is no place for a victim mindset in David's concept of recovery. On the contrary, what is needed is to take responsibility for your own condition and your own healing.
The principles and ideas David explores are relevant for anyone who wants to have more power and freedom in their life. Even many healthy people live as though they haven't got a choice about many aspects of their lives. Whether you have a short time to live or many healthy years ahead of you, that is no way to live them.
Why wait until you are facing the likelihood of imminent death to discover your personal power? Read this book now, and enjoy living more for the rest of your life, however long that may be.

Free Will
We choose this life. We choose to inhabit a physical and mortal body and take whatever comes with this physical partnering. We contribute to our physical, emotional, social, material, psychological and mental reality within this physical plane of existence. We come here to learn. We don't learn much when the grass is green and the sun is warm, but when the storm winds blow and the tree falls on our house, we are awakened into learning mode. It is for this, for adversity, that we have come into this plane of existence.
Our souls seek balance. We remember the imbalances of previous lives in our soul self, and we live this life in a clear determination to set things in balance again. I was self-centered in a prior life, talented and successful and spoiled. I used other people to entertain myself. Now in this current life, I have been abused and used by others to meet their own needs, and I have learned the empathy that I lacked. The adversities I have faced in this life have been gifts to my soul. It has grown in love and wisdom through every hardship.
In a previous life, I was an herbalist. I knew the plants and combinations of elements to heal the sick or calm a troubled heart. i remember doing it, but not the knowledge of those things. In this current life, i have the gift of healing. I work with the energy, and the energy works with me. The energy guides me, and I am guided when I am channeling the energy by my spirit guides, who plant suggestions in my mind. I can sometimes hear them talk.
All through our life, we are creating what is coming next. We see it and then we claim it, and before we know what has happened, it is ours. But we do not get to control the physical plane in a perfect or absolute extent. The processes are so great that all we can do is yield to them.
