First, I'll thank my test subjects for being test subjects after my completion of the Level I/II Reconnective Healing course. :)
The first person I practiced on was my friend Sara. She lives in Southern California. She knew about the class I was taking, but didn't know about what to expect during a session. After seeing people showing registers in class, I had to ask myself, could this merely be the power of suggestion? The people know whats supposed to happen, so it does. I figured my experiment with Sara would be helpful.
So going into it, without knowing at all what to expect, I will say that my friend Sara is very ill. Out of friendship for her, I won't specify everything, but she really has had a rough road. Anyhow.. we were talking online and I asked her if I could practice on her. She said her dad would be up soon, and she'd get up to make him coffee when he did, so she wasn't available very long. So we decided we would go til we were done - and if we got interrupted, it might be interesting to see if either of us noticed automatically.
I love that Sara entertains my skepticism :) So we begin the session. I picture Sara in my mind, and I begin working with my hands. Immediately they got very warm and my head felt light. About 10 minutes of this passed, while I worked. Then.. I just felt I was done. I went back to my computer but I didn't message her, I just waited to see if she showed up. Not 10 seconds later she was there... "That was so cool... " I began asking questions about her experience, without leading her in any way.. what did you notice?
"Someone kept telling me to listen..." She saw lights.. it was white, like the way a pond looks when you drop a pebble into it... rings of light.. she also reported that her right side was twitching and not wanting to stay still.
I had a chuckle... something happened.. from halfway across the country. I find this really incredible to believe - yet extremely exciting. So now I wait to see what unfolds.
Secondly, I tried on my sister. Again, she didn't know the full experience of what to expect, but she'd heard me talk about it. We learned in class that often when you have a very specific outcome in mind it can interfere with your ability to let go, and simply observe, and allow the process to take place as it will. It's hard to think that I have no say in what happens. I wanted to try with her because she'd just had surgery. I wanted to see if my WANT to have a specific outcome would truly interfere. So I tried to get out of the way and we began. Almost immediately her eyes began to flutter then her hand started jumping... and her toes... I just laughed.. and watched.. and played with the energy.
It's so hard to describe how it feels.. but every time I go a few days without practicing I just HAVE to do it.. be it a friend, a co-worker, or my cat! Today at work the boss's wife asked me to do some work on her husband :) we didn't tell him.. but they're both having a horrible cold, so I'm going to do that next.
I'll be looking forward to giving some updates!
