October 11, 2002 (Part 2)

Something magical has happened. I got to do some healing today. This is not to say that I don't do healing all the time, but lately, it seems to have been buried under all the pressure at work, and the push to get a business started.

I was walking up the hall at work and noticed one of my coworkers (one I don't have much interaction with) walking around with a bag of ice on her neck and shoulder. With my usual grace and aplomb (yeah, right), I made some comment like 'ah, you have a bag of ice growing out of your shoulder." When I asked what was wrong, she told me that she thought she had a disc moving out of place and that she had pain in her neck and around her shoulder blade.

I walked around behind her, scanned her and started to work. I followed the lines I felt I needed to work, and the lines I was shown. I did some compression, friction, and some other stuff. Then to finish it off, I did Reiki. When I was done, she told me that I was pretty good and asked if I did this. I immediately whipped out one of my new business cards (the ones for Caring Palms Massage), and gave it to her.

We talked a little more and she mentioned about the pain giving her a headache. She told me it was manageable now. I put my hand in front of her forehead, and started turning it, creating a small vortex. I closed my eyes, surrounded the energy creating the headache, and pulled it out. Once I had it out, I threw it away. I didn't say a word, but when I looked at her, her eyes were wide, unbelieving. Her first question was "How did you do that?"

I explained about energy, and how everything is energy in some way or another. Then I gave her my Reiki business card and told her she could get more information from my website. This may lead to some business, or it may not. It is a good start if nothing else.

Wow, depression one day, rising out of the darkness the next. Then to have it capped off with magic, well that just makes it special.
