Update On Healing: UC Davis National Conference Inspiration


seraphim on the ceiling of the blue mosque, Istanbul




Healthcare is changing. This is agreed upon by just about everybody you talk to about medicine as we see it today.

I had the incredible opportunity to attend the 12th Annual UC David Pre-Medical and Pre-Health National Conference, with my niece who is interested in becoming a physician. She graduates this year from high school, and wants to plan her college experience accordingly to reach her dream.

Here is a summary of what I learned, from the experts:



What she says--Janet Napolitano, JD, President Of The University Of California

The population of physicians in practice in the state of California is aging. Thirty-two percent are sixty years or older.  Although California is known to be a land of dreams and opportunity, there is a predicted seventeen-thousand physician shortage in the near future, with most of this in the serving of rural areas.  Her words of encouragement were also backed by financial advice about many programs to assist medical students.  As things are, about thirty-three percent of all students are from underrepresented minority groups. And thirty percent are first-generation doctors. About forty-two percent of students receive a Pell Grant, which is a gift and does not need to be repaid.  The PRIME program matches students to underserved areas, and this program offers financial support. On the Blue and Gold scholarship program, students with parents who make under eighty thousand dollars are not required to pay ANY tuition fee in state. And there is also a middle-class scholarship available to those whose parents make less than one-hundred fifty thousand dollars a year. The net result? Over half of all students at the University of California Health Care System have medical school for free and have no debt when they graduate.

What Reiki Doc says

Janet undoubtedly had input into Obamacare. Many of the physicians have opted out of medicine altogether to avoid dealing with the changes. Many young ones 'retired' because it was not worth it to 'compete' in this new playing field.  Due to a 'glitch'--the healthcare comes with a high deductible and has Bronze, Silver and Gold 'levels' of copayment from patients. As a result, providers giving care have had to 'scramble' since most patients do not pay their deductible and have had to be 'stiffed' by the patient in this situation. Some have waited to submit billing until after the deductible was met. Others have patients pay cash up front before offering services to avoid this situation.  Janet is RECRUITING from the pool disadvantaged potential health care students with the promise of 'riches'--at this special conference--to TAKE ON OVER TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS IN DEBT for EDUCATION--to students who may not be able to buy homes because of this debt burden to become healthcare professionals.  People who enter the military, or programs to help in underserved areas will come out ahead, as their education will be subsidized by these programs. After this, students with 'deep pockets'--well-to-do parents, also will have no debt. And those remaining students who support themselves like I did? They are in for a struggle because the money they hope to get in return for their sacrifice and skill may not be 'there' waiting for them. (my debt was thirty-three thousand dollars, twenty-eight thousand of which I bundled into a home refinance. I paid my debt in ten years.)



What he says--Harvey Fineberg, MD, PhD, President, Institute of Medicine

We are approaching an era where 'Medicine' means more than physician--it includes all branches of healing, notably, nursing, veterinary medicine, physicians, allied health, and public health. Furthermore, he points out the motto on the gym wall above the audience--'#one world one UC Davis' to promote the concept of One Health:  that human and animal and ecologic 'holistic balance' is tied in overall, and that one cannot heal without balance being optimized in the other 'branches' of our connectedness.

He mentions EBOLA--where is it from? It is a zoonotic infection, much like SARS, HIV, and influenza, that goes from an animal reservoir to the human host.

He also discusses PRECISION medicine--individualized for each patient's particular DNA make-up. In the nineteenth century, pathology was the basis of all disease.  It was physical and under the microscope findings that led to the diagnosis. Everything was 'lumped together' and treated the same. Now is the time to create healing that is patient-specific, and to go beyond the nineteenth century approach.

What Reiki Doc says

Medicine has been good to this man. He knows what side of his bread is buttered. He has many contributions to many organizations, many very famous and notable ones. My sense is that he is pointing towards medicine 'trends' which are pretty universal, and many other speakers point to the same direction. He means well. He works hard. But how much of the 'system' does he realize, the pharmaceutical industry and its reach? I am not sure what side he is on--ours, or theirs. Time will tell.



What he says--Robert McDonald, Secretary, Veterans Affairs

The VA system trains virtually all physicians. (including myself; I was an employee, just like him.)
The VA Healthcare claims three Nobel Prizes, the first pacemaker, the first liver transplant, and the first nicotine patch too. Using the ICARE principles of Integrity, Commitment, Advocacy, Respect and Excellence to see more and his photo the VA is helping to advance the field of medicine overall. He shares with excitement, the exoskeleton project for Spinal Cord patients, an area which the VA delivers excellent care.  see video of how it works Yes it has been FDA approved here in the US.



What Reiki Doc says

The VA is under scrutiny because of 'long wait times' for Veterans to be seen and treated. I love the VA, and I am thankful for both the veterans who were my patients, and the system. I can see how the Secretary would not dwell on this, but it would have been 'balanced' to say that we are using ICARE to resolve the controversial 'long wait times' situation. His videos he shared, especially the one about 'My Dad is a doctor for the VA' moved me very much, and I cried, because the healers there do a lot of good for the veterans and their families.



What he says-- Steve Given, DAOM, LAc, Dean of Clinical Education, Director of Academic Assessment, ACTCM

He compares and contrasts the Western 'linear model' of disease with the Eastern 'everything is in circles' philosophy. Everything is in balance, and it isn't enough to treat the symptom without addressing the underlying energy imbalance of the qi (chi--life force) and the xue (blood), as well as the yin and the yang.  He gave a brief history of Acupuncture in the western world, most notably, James Reston, reporter for the New York Times, who had an appendectomy in China during the 1971 visit by Richard Nixon. original article--and he had a spinal for the surgery, not acupuncture.

When the energy flows with balance and harmony in the natural circles, you are disease-free. When there are symptoms, even if ten patients all present with the same SYMPTOM, it might require ten different treatments, due to the underlying imbalances that need to be addressed.

So from three thousand years ago, this form of medicine has come to the states in the 1800's with the railroads and the gold rush. The modalities are:

  • Cupping and Gua Sha (scraping)
  • Moxibustion
  • Tai Chi and Qi Gong (to assist the individual to move and balance their own Chi)
  • Herbs
  • Diet
Medical science is just starting to be able to explain how acupuncture works, for example, the pins cause a release in serotonin, which yields reduction in pain.   Here is the link to his school, which has more resources for you, if you are interested in this type of healing:  American College Of Traditional Chinese Medicine

He also says that some acupuncturists now work for Kaiser. The referral process is very limited, but they are there, and they are busy.


What Reiki Doc says

I was delighted to hear Steve speak. Having been a patient of Rick Gold, in San Diego, for chronic sinus ailments in Medical School, I enjoyed this healing approach. Richard Gold, Lac  Pacific College Of Oriental Medicine.  It is wonderful that Acupuncture is invited to this Health Conference. I also would advise you, if you wish to study, to become very diligent in understanding the accreditation and licensing requirements, as well as insurance reimbursement rates, in the state where you plan to practice.  Rick was the first to recognize my gift. He called me 'a sensitive' and referred me to a session with Christel Nani. She is a former ER RN, who found she had 'the gift' and followed it. Christel. Although I didn't 'hit it off' with Christel, I appreciate her taking the time to work with me. Rebecca, too, I thank you for your help.



What she says -- Melanie Henriksen, ND, LAc, CNM, Dean of Naturopathic Medicine, NCNM

Naturopaths are like DO's (doctors of Osteopathic medicine) who spend the first two years of their four year training learning about the human body and how it works, then they work in the clinics to learn how to treat the whole patient, with these following methods:
  • Botanical medicine
  • Clinical Nutrition
  • Homeopathy
  • Hydrotherapy (alternating hot and cold water)
  • Lifestyle counseling
  • Mind-Body medicine
  • Minor surgery
  • Midwifery
  • Physical Therapy
  • Pharmacology (in Oregon NP can prescribe everything an MD can except chemo and antipsychotics)
  • IV therapy (high dose vitamin C, alpha lipoid acids, selenium)
As the field progresses, studies are starting to show how this type of medicine works, in a bench top scientific as well as in a randomized, double-blind manner. And some failures, for example, the St John's Wort versus Paxil study, used one-third the dose most NP's would have used to treat moderate depression. She counters with, 'would one-third the dose of Paxil do anything for you too?'

She advises careful research on accreditation, licensing, and scope of practice. The cost will be about the same as medical school. There is no residency requirement, and also, residencies do not have federal funding like MD and DO programs do. 

'Medicine is merging and we all have to play nice in the sandbox together.' and 'Collaboration and integrative care--we do what is best for the patient regardless of the medical disciplines we have for our training.'  Melanie Henriksen, ND, LAc, CNM  

They have a beautiful website, and I encourage you to look at it: National College Of Natural Medicine

What Reiki Doc says

I raised my hand in the session, and asked two things--what are insurance reimbursements? Some are good, in some states. Others are limited. She added that although some work at Cancer Centers of America, or other organized departments of healing, many work in private practice. Some of those in private practice do not wish to accept insurance, because then insurance would have some say in how they treat patients, so independence is a must for these practitioners.

I also shared that with 'The Merge' MD and DO training requirements combining, that the only thing besides residency requirements holding the NP's back is the perception on the part of traditional MD's that 'taking call' and 'staying up all night' is part of the 'dues paid in order to be taken seriously as a healer'. Once this is resolved, then the healers can and should 'play nicely' together, with the patient's best interest at heart.

Also--LOL--where is the Reiki? 



What she says--Kimberley A Folks, MA, Pipeline Coordinator for the Office of Student and Resident Diversity, UC Davis

How to get into medical school for High School students--well, get into college! The better degrees pay over $52,200 year over those without higher education. Over a lifetime the college-educated come to be one million dollars ahead. The more education, the better! And apply for every scholarship--let THEM be the ones to tell you no!  She graduated with NO debt, and she is originally from Jamaica. Pell Grant, FAFSA, Cal Grant, scholarships will help you reach your dream. Open a bank account now, and make sure you take :
  • two years history
  • four years college prep English
  • three years math
  • two years lab science (biology, chemistry, physics)
  • two years of a language that is not English
  • one year of performing or visual art
  • one year of college prep elective
She also says to create a resume AND a Curriculum Vitale NOW.

What Reiki Doc says

Has she had any major plumbing work done in her house? Just kidding. The working conditions are better and I enjoy my career. Her enthusiasm and proven track record, and willingness to share her expertise was refreshing. I wish every high school student, not just those attending the conference, could have input from someone like her. Perhaps she could make her own YouTube channel?

I also didn't realize how hard I worked to get where I am today...




What he says--Jonathan Perez, Director of Admissions, Stanford University School Of Medicine

There were three themes. There was the technical--use your resources!
There are over seven thousand applications, about four-hundred-fifty invitations to interview, and ninety entering class positions.

The second is philosophical--apply MINDFULNESS and PROFESSIONALISM to everything that you do. The Stanford 'duck' principle was shared--you look calm on the surface but underneath you are swimming furiously to get where you want to go.

The last is, in my opinion, extremely related to my interest in spirituality--you take life Experiences, and you go make the most of them, to become a Change Agent. He cited a person who noticed there was no medical care in his hometown in the midwest. He pursued this, including asking several physicians in the area to support it, and created a model that has spread throughout the region, and it still functioning today. Change agents exist in all walks of life, and Stanford School of Medicine searches to select these individuals to contribute to the future of medicine.



What Reiki Doc says

Early on in my Reiki training, I envisioned creating randomized-double blind studies, and perhaps approaching my peers at conference with lectures and workshops on Reiki. I wanted to bring Reiki into the hospitals, and into conventional medicine, to everyone who is willing to learn it. The recovery times are half that without Reiki treatment. And in my own practice, post-op nausea and vomiting, as well as post-op pain, is very much less than with 'standard treatment' when Reiki is added to 'the mix'.

I quickly realized that this was slow and also faced many obstacles, for I was taking something that was from Source, and Spirit, and trying to 'make it fit' into a man-made society 'mold' or 'format', to gain 'acceptance'.

I let go, and started blogging from my heart, and reaching out to others who are like-minded.

As a result, my 'reach' is international. Our team of healers is effective and mutually supportive. We exist completely outside insurance, professional societies, and traditional roles as healers as we do our work. We have RT's, hospice nurses, NP's, physicians, and more 'inside the system', as well as healers who support and encourage Reiki worldwide.

We are not 'riding the wave' we are MAKING WAVES as a community. About six days ago, in a Skype session with Marc Gamma, Archangel Raphael encouraged me to study 'NDE's' (Near Death Experiences' in medicine). What I did not realize at the time was that this paper was released then too! It is the first study of NDE's from the university of Southampton. Furthermore, there is the work of Melvin Morse, MD, his website, a pediatrician whose patient survived a nineteen-minute cardiac arrest, met Jesus, and said he was 'nice'. Dr. Morse took up studies to prove that NDE phenomenon was 'wrong', and came up with a fascinating body of work, and several books, too. 

To close, I add my stories, the first collection of mediumship from a practicing physician:  Messages From My Patients

I propose that those who SEE and FEEL and EXPERIENCE the higher dimensions, and all that goes with it such as seeing auras, Reiki healing, telepathy, claircognizance, empaths, and more enter the arena of Healers...

It is time, for humanity, for this kind of 'merge' to begin.

'I use cosmic energy. It is a drugless treatment. I use my hands as electrodes.' --Hawayo Takata, December 1, 1961 Senate Subcommittee Hearing full text

Remember, as Louis Pasteur said, on his deathbed, 'Bernard is correct. The bacteria are nothing. The soil is everything." Pasteur was revealing to the world that his germ theory of disease was ... false. He SAW that it is the energy system, the vibrant aura, that is protective against disease.


Aloha and Mahalos,
Namaste,
Peace,

Take This And Treasure It: Give To Receive


This is going to be a gentle, simple review of what is expected of us in the 5D and Higher Dimensions.

Today is my first day off since 2011, on the internet. My sweet, cherished Ross has instructed me to stay off the internet for twenty-four hours, and have a break.

But since so much has happened, it is my delight to share it with you from the comfort of my home, after I have had a pleasant rest after my twenty-four hour shift.

Being Surprised By 5D Business:
Although my son had spent the night at a friend's house, and the mother offered to buy him a school lunch the next morning as she ordered one for her son, he declined and said, 'text my mother'.

Well, I was sleepy and never saw the text until about an hour before lunch was due! I panicked! I had plenty to do, and going to the school to bring a sack lunch was not one of the things on the plan.

Somehow, I got the idea to call a business that is nearby that works with food. I called and ordered a lunch. Guess what? The owner said I didn't have to pay until I picked him up from school--and saved me the trip. Good old fashioned trust, and communication, which I grew up with--is going to be coming back to the point where money is not a concept like it once was. In fact, it shall disappear entirely in a few generations' time. No other advanced civilizations HAVE money--it is not needed and society works just fine for goods and services...




Give and Take, or is it Take and Give?
See the picture up above? This is your energy body. We are beings of Light, and this one is an example of someone with the Kundalini activated and the Merkaba--this is our divine energy pattern blueprint by design--fully functioning in all energy fields, in all dimensions, in all space and time.

'Tit for tat' or 'You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours' are very low energy systems. Even if you want to save the world, the concept of 'fundraising efforts' that are beyond a simple 'donate' system are very antique perspective of 3D.

Yes we need goods and services to provide, but this does not work with the Law of Attraction.

Many think that I am well-prosperous because I am an anesthesiologist. It is true that I am blessed to have work, and income to support my precious family.

What I put out to the Universe first, however, is more than would meet the eye:

  • I send free Reiki healing to thousands of people 365 days a year (today included, I just didn't post it.)
  • I send free Divine Peace Healing and Unicorn Healing to the same, 365 days a year, same as above.
  • I send other forms of healing and inspirational guidance. Look hard! Where is that donate button? Where are the ads? I don't know! Perhaps you are not looking hard enough? ; )
  • The photos I post alone are all purchased or taken myself--I subscribe to a service--I don't take them randomly from Google Images as a matter of course. They are my gift to you <3
  • This is my calling by Spirit and I honor it with love and joy and abundance in my heart.
  • I have gratitude for others, and support them as I see fit with my time, talent, and treasure--free healings and posting of reiki requests for individuals in health crisis, helping my sister by gifting her starbucks by surprise electronically, helping with the heating oil bill of a blogger whom I know and adore their work, providing for one month of expenses for the Prepare For Change Website, giving an entire set of All Clad cookware to a colleague for his wedding--he did my brother-in-law's kidney donation, and the anesthetic immediately following for his daughter my niece to receive it, and also anesthesia for my own surgery--it is a joy to help manifest our gratitude for his gift in substance he and his bride-to-be request on their registry, and I also sent a bouquet of flowers to an online interviewer for an excellent job interviewing a controversial individual and put her own life at risk because of her willingness to follow the direction of Spirit, and interview this person as Spirit asked...
  • In return for this open flow of Giving all of these intentions start bouncing back to me in kind, and all my needs are met. 
  • When we focus on needs, interests, and our ability to fulfill them any way we can for others, suddenly our needs are taken care of as well. This is the cycle of the Higher Dimensions; those who tithe stumble upon this fact, too.


It was at my poorest, when I was putting myself through medical school, wearing 'vintage' clothing and cutting my own hair, I stumbled upon a sacred truth--the feeling of being 'rich' really didn't matter to how much money I had, it depended on the feeling I had about myself in my heart.

Poor as I was, I decided to be 'rich' and appreciate all the blessings I had been given. And I have been 'rich' in my heart ever since.

Here is a a nice quote to help thing about it:
Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, but the realization of how much you already have. -- Anonymous



Today when I was post-call, Spirit guided me to go to my local Starbucks. I had a tall mocha and a warm croissant. With delight, it was the first time I felt free to relax and not post like my usual morning routine. Ross was wise to give me a break! Instead I took delight and read this article: http://sirianheaven.wordpress.com/2014/03/24/heavenletter-4868-you-are-one-of-the-wonders-of-the-world-march-24-2014/ 

Not only was I very pleased with Father-God's 'new, improved' tone and subject matter, I also looked forward to excitement to the blessing I would experience today.

As I walked to my car, a woman stopped me, and called me by name. She asked, 'Is it you?'

It was the woman who had been the administrative assistant for my tax man. I've known her fifteen years. But the last seven she went into massage therapy. So we caught up while she ordered and drank her coffee before going to work.

She's really connected! Both to Spirit and to an Integrative Healing Center nearby. She coordinates functions and invited me to be a speaker where hopefully, Caroline Myss, MD is going to be the keynote speaker in 2015. 

Her energy was incredibly transformed since the last time I saw her--stronger, more solid, more robust in the Light.

We 'talked shop' and she actually interacts with doctors often, explaining Energy Healing in this way:
  • The brain sends out waves of electrical energy and we measure them routinely with science.
  • The heart does the same, and we measure it, and know it is stronger than the signals from the brian.
  • If you ever talk to someone, especially if you hear something sad, sometimes you get a 'feeling' in your chakra because somehow their energy system is sending something to 'you' and you are 'picking it up' (I call this the aura to aura transmission--it happens over the internet as well as over the phone and in person.)
  • If you ever get that 'feeling' don't chalk it off to 'nothing'. It's not 'nothing'. It's something very important that is information for you.

Recently, my friend went on vacation. They had a lady Reiki practitioner come and cover for her. Since the 'substitute healer' didn't actually 'touch' the patients, she didn't need all the regulation by the health care system. And since she was not HIPAA, she was not allowed to look at the charts. She just asked the patients as she would in her practice, and made notes just for her services.

Well, it turns out the recommendations for the patient from the Reiki practitioner and the information that had been written but not seen in the charts for the patients matched! She called someone on their need to juice fast that they were trying to avoid, she called someone out on their breast cancer, and also that breast cancer one had her lump under her arm from the surgery miraculously flatten out overnight after Reiki and Acupuncture treatments in one day!

My friend even knows how to handle the situation where someone has the story that 'my shoulder hurts and I can't work because of it' but the shoulder moves beautifully on examination and all medical tests...she brings up the thought pattern, and the energy that is going with it, and asks the patient how they think they can work on this just to change it up--so the 'loop' of 'my shoulder hurts I can't work'--which is not malingering but really FELT by that person--has a chance to open up and heal too.



I hope this has given you another way to look at the cycle of Prosperity and Abundance.

I hope you ask yourself, and meditate, on 'Is it Give and Take in my heart-mind-spirit and connection to others? Or is it Take and Give?'

In doing so, you will be ushering in the cycle of prosperity and abundance in the higher dimensions.
Give what you can, out of joyfulness and gratitude for what has so richly been given to you from Creation.

The blessings you find are not random. They will shower back upon you and be a beauty and delight for the rest of your days!



Aloha and Mahalos,
Peace and Light,
Namaste,

Reiki Doc

P.S. Tonight I offered a friend to pay for the Removals on, well, 'someone who needs it' is a nice way of putting it. I put in the order with Margaret. The cost is $150.  I just opened the mail, and there now is a check from my insurance for $141.89. See how it works? It just happens! So go for it! Give it a whirl!

What Does It Mean To Heal?: A Photo Essay

Healing involves touch and is one-to-one

Healing involves the hands to promote relaxation

There is always a component of Love in the Healing Process

Love involves Preparation in advance, and careful Planning

Spirit is always Present when Healing happens

 Healing often involves the interaction between water, Light Energy, and Love

The nurse tends to a boy's wound with care

Advanced forms of Healing include the use of sound and color to target the emotional body, the astral body, and the etheric plane

It is my sincerest hope that one day i.v.'s will be unnecessary 

And that the focus on money is less than it is with insurance companies today

Healing starts in the Home

And is pure Magic

Consider the miracle of how broken bones mend

It is our birthright to feel this wonderful always


with Love and Aloha,

Namaste,

Reiki Doc

This was a favorite song of The King of Pop. Just feel that awesome healing 'vibe' from the Great Satchmo. : )))   Enjoy:

Pill-Popping Peeps



Right this moment I am taking in a piece of Scharffenberger 'Bean to Bar' limited-edition San Juan De Cheni 78% dark chocolate with source origin cacao beans from Peru. It is 78%--love my dark--and 'Rainforest Certified'.  You have to order it online, or know someone that sells it to get a bar. Like I said yesterday, when I experience a 'speed bump' with Love Is The Solution For Everything, I reach for Dr. Chocolate! Those little endorphins get pumping and I can 'make it through' another day.

Yesterday was an exercise in forgiveness for me. All day long. The slate is clean between me, and my 'speed bump', on Spirit Side. But on Earth Side, as a Doctor, I might look like I am 'taking away the only thing that makes him him'. This is not the case. The way I see it, I am protecting him and everyone like him from legal liability from practicing medicine without a license.

'I have a headache' I remarked to a friend while eating dinner. I knew what it was. I hadn't had my coffee all day. It was past five o'clock. I needed caffeine. I simply asked which choice of tea on the menu had the highest content of caffeine.

Instead I got the expert with not one but two bottles of pills. I was encouraged to take one gi-normous white pill of L-carnitine, and SIX of something that looked like brown powder. He looked like he knew what he was doing. I knew he had done this before. I was like, 'Do I have to take all of them?' and he was like, 'Take it!'  So I did. She offered me the bottles to look at the labels. I didn't want to look. It was too late. I had taken the pills already. I would accept what came from it. I didn't feel like being 'doctor' with that headache. I was also hungry and I wanted to eat.

And it worked! Headache went away.

Let us flash back one week. My friend, who is a natural health advocate and is married to a doctor, an anesthesia colleague of mine--that is why I love her so!--complained about her 'red eyes'. I knew from her age and from my own personal experience and from the appearance of the eye that dry eye might be the problem. And that one of the most effective treatments for this is the application of a thin line of vaseline-type lubricant made for this purpose to be put inside the lower eyelid right before sleep. I brought her some just like the kind I use on my patients at work to protect their eyes during long surgery. (Normally we just tape them closed). I also think it is ironic because her husband owns a surgery center where they do lots of optholmology procedures every day, and yet she suffers with her own eyes...

See? I am guilty of the same thing. Curbside consult medicine! We have been this way, all of us, women in particular, when headaches or cramps occur. We tell our friends, and boom! Out comes the bottle of ibuprofen.  We love each other, we care, and we share what has helped us.

Well, what is the difference between this behavior and that of a clinician such as a Naturopath, an Acupuncturist, a Homeopath, and either a DO or an MD?

(This is what I do with my kids after a question that is a learning point---I hum the song from Jeopardy and wait for them to giggle. Humming that tune now....bing, it's done!)

It is SOAP.

Subjective
Objective
Assessment
Plan

Subjective: 'I have a headache'. This is treatment person's turn to ask patient, 'what makes it better? what makes it worse? where is it? how long have you had it? has this happened to you before? is it your time of the month? is it the worst headache of your life?' It is that last one in bold print that would mean 'Go Directly to ER' because there might be an intracranial bleed in there--and ibuprofen or god knows what would only make the bleeding worse and delay definitive care.

Objective:  Things you can see that confirm the 'Differential Diagnosis', the 'list of what could be causing the headache in this patient'. For example, papilledema--cupping and 'nicking'-- is observed by looking in the eye, and the optic nerve area is all swollen--is a sign of dangerously high blood pressure. When one sees that, treat the blood pressure and do not give ibuprofen.

Assessment: This is the overall picture of the disease process in each patient. What is the cause behind the lab values, physical examination signs, and the symptoms described by the patient. What is the likelihood of each? So we list them, in order of likelihood and/or severity, with the life-threatening ones at the top of the list, just like in ER triage--chest pain gets you to the head of the line, so to speak...

Plan: This is the treatment you plan to do about it. And the follow-up. How you are going to check and make sure that the treatment is working and the patient is feeling better.

In Chinese Medicine, Homeopathy, and Naturopathic Medicine, the Subjective is super long and super thorough. In Allopathic medicine we go heavy on the tests. My sister frequents a vitamin shop where someone that used to be a doctor in another country sells the 'supplements' and advises what to take next--without ANY of the SOAP that is described above.

Pills are pills. The ones that started off from nature and were extracted from that ARE allopathic medicine. The little frog--isn't he cute?--is to show how curare was taken from the frog to make poison darts to stun prey hit by arrows that have been dipped in it. Curare is 'natural', and will kill you. I use succinylcholine, which is similar to Curare, daily in my work. I have years of training to help someone breathe who is paralyzed. It kind of goes together. Why would I paralyze someone in surgery? So they can't move. Either the muscles in the abdomen or chest need to be relaxed so the surgeon can work, or any movement would be disastrous like in neurological surgery.  I reverse it at the end, the paralysis.

With a running i.v. or Sevoflurane by mask, I can render anyone unconscious in less than thirty seconds. 

Do I think about that much? Not really. I have been doing this for years and is what was taught to me.

The one who should think about the pills before you pop them, is you. If you are expert like the one that gave them to me for my headache, try to find out what serious 'danger questions' to ask before you treat. Is this the worst headache in your life? Let me call 911.  If you are the one who is taking the pills--look, even if your doctor or person you go to seek relief from your complaints is more psychic than me--look for a little SOAP from them. And also follow the money.

We are all friends. We are OHANA. We are healers in this together. We have many, many lifetimes as Kahuna and Shaman and even M.D. We KNOW what we are doing, on some level, and that is why 'it works'.

On an energetic level, when my seven pills were handed to me, non-verbally, with my aura interacting with his, I KNEW that I was going to be 'okay'.  In my heart of hearts, this guy is a Kahuna. He has that energy. I should know, I am Kahuna and I have this energy too. How am I Kahuna? Spirit trained me. Madame Pele. The Menehune. The fish. Kamehameha. My past life. And my school of medicine, my training, my patients, and disease that I have worked with professionally itself. It takes one to know one. That being said, Kahunas ask a lot of questions in the old country. They also ask for Spirit to help.

Can you agree to be more like Kahuna in your work? Ask the questions. Screen for basic serious medical problems before you treat. Ask for Spirit to guide you--look at Edgar Cayce and his magnificent work!

As long as we are doing pills, let's do them right. All of us together, hand in hand, heart in heart, Ohana taking care of one another. We stay out of trouble, and not anyone is going to suffer unnecessarily from lack of SOAP.

Namaste,

Reiki Doc

P.S. This is my latest 'discovery'--puremedy bio-ceuticals. 'Ancient remedies for modern people'. They are salves built by a first-nations elder to heal the gangrene on his foot. The original healing salve has been clinically tested to kill: MRSA, Staphylococcus, Candida albicans, Streptococcus, Klesbiella Pneumonia, E. Coli, Salmonella typhinimurium, Enterobacter Cloacea, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Burkholderia cepacia, Vegitative Aspirigillus Niger (fungus).  (Yes, I do know what all of these bugs are, and some of them I can diagnose by smelling them in a wound--I know them because I have seen them that much). So here is the link. And wash your hands often! That is healthy practice too!
www.puremedy.com They are about fourteen bottles a jar, and available at fine health food stores like Mother's Market near you.

Reiki and the Prominent Surgeon's Questions



This is dad. Daddy LOVED sports. I like to think that daddy is watching me while I work with a prominent surgeon who loves sports too. Although I would like to say more about his 'prominence' I have to leave it to 'privacy' and let you infer the rest.

Like this picture, this surgeon has three daughters, just like dad did with us. And the bond between a father and his daughters is especially close.

'If you had ONE super power, what would it be?' the surgeon smiled under his mask, and asked the room. It was his daughter's writing assignment over the weekend. His daughter chose 'to fly'. He wanted 'to fly' too. His wife and a classmate had wanted 'to absorb and/or neutralize the super power of others'.

This last wish was very telling. He is Christian, conservatively so, and I could 'sense' that there was some 'hint' of 'the works of the devil' in connection with 'the super powers'. I know this all too well. At the Christian Preschool my children were at long ago, I had to sign a paper agreeing that 'Jesus is Our Superhero' and that no lunch boxes, clothing, or underwear could have any 'Superheroes' logos on it.

Clearly enjoying the question, he asked me next what superpower  I wanted?

I said, 'I want the ability to see the positive in EVERYTHING and give others HOPE!', smiling inwardly, because he had no clue I was a Reiki Master, Karuna Reiki Master, and Reiki Doc (although some workers in the room are my Reiki students). Reiki is not a 'super power' but is definitely 'outside the range of normal human experience'.

He went on to say that perhaps some should wish for the ability to heal all disease? But then, he second-guessed, you would live forever...

I smiled and said, 'Well then of course you would have the ability to heal others, and then you would all live forever together, would you not?'

He smiled and agreed.

Then Spirit nudged me.

'I have heard that there are some healers out there, with Reiki, that can heal a cut when it happens just by placing their hand on it.'

'No, it must just do hemostasis!' he countered, bovie-ing away with electrocautery in the patient's wound.

'No. It reverses it completely. Like it never happened. It works for cuts, bruises, and burns in the kitchen.'

'What is this Reiki?'

I shared about Integrative Medicine, and that Reiki is on the forefront of this movement. Like Acupuncture, it facilitates the body to heal itself. 'It is like a YOGA thing' I chided, lovingly, with my heart. 'YOGA people are AWESOME!' making sure he felt the LOVE that was behind the Truth of this statement.

He took the bait. 'Tell me, where did this Reiki come from?'

'Master Usui was a professor at a Christian University in Japan. In Japan, there is an 'honor' between student and teacher. When student asks, teacher has to know. And if teacher does not know the answer, teacher has to look. Students asked Usui 'How did Jesus heal the body in the miracles described in the Bible?' So Master Usui set about to look. It took many years, learning ancient languages, reading the original papers--Tibetan Buddhist, Hebrew, something like that. And he gave up. He went on a buddhist retreat in silence and fasting for many days. At the end of his rope, he went up to the sacred waterfalls on Mount Kuyama (spelling?). Then down came Reiki. He went into the streets of his town, healing the homeless who were outcasts for free for seven years. But then, guess what? He started to see 'repeats'--healed homeless who grew tired of the responsibility of wife and job and family, and came back to the streets. It was then he realized how people have to desire healing, and to create an energy exchange between the healer and the client. He began to teach Reiki, and that is how we have it today.'

'Well, what is the difference between this 'Reiki' and something else?' he pondered aloud.

"You know sourdough bread? How it takes a little starter dough to make it rise? Reiki must come to you from someone who is already doing it, and is trained to help you start. It opens up the channels of energy in the body that were once asleep, much in the way acupuncture accesses the healing meridians channels of energy that are in the body. Did you know in China they can do heart surgery using no anesthesia but acupuncture alone? It takes weeks to train the patient to learn how to breathe with an open chest, but it works. That and cesarean sections with only acupuncture for anesthesia too. Clearly it is working! I figure with acupuncture, although it is hard to measure the fine energy of the healing because there is not enough technical advance in equipment yet, there is such a large 'n' in trial patients--all of China!--that it is proven to work. Memorial Sloan-Kettering, MD Anderson, Kansas University...all of these places have a Department of Integrative Medicine in them.'

'You know my friend, he started one of those programs at Duke!'

'See, yes, Duke has one of the best ones (ed - they also have an excellent department on the paranormal)! You see, there is a problem with cancer patients these days. They perceive 'us' and 'our medicine' as focusing on Death rather than 'life'. Reiki has been shown in clinical studies to 'relax' the patient and bring quality of life. Teams of Reiki providers go into the wards and give the patients help. That is the cutting edge of science of healing at this time.'

So he absorbed it all in, thoughtfully, and said, 'Hmmmmm'.

'Hmmmm' being said by a physician is a good sign in medicine. He is pondering something new. As I see it, he walked in to this room highly religious and knowing 'what was what'. He walked out of this case with a little education, courtesy of me, humble and caring, Reiki Doc.

___________________

A nurse in the room at the time had shared that she 'had Reiki once'. She went to 'some place in Anaheim'. Her friend had been 'learning' and 'she had to make it stop because she felt like her head was going to blow off' during her treatment.

As we rolled the patient out to PACU, she asked me, 'Where can I get some more of this Reiki?'

'From me.'
'What? How?'
'I teach.'
'What? Was this something you did back in college?'
'No. Something more recent, since after I was a doctor. I wanted to learn more how to best heal my patients. I think next time Reiki will be a better experience for you.'

She opened her mouth and closed it, not knowing what to say. Then it was time to give report to the RN in PACU as we had just rolled the patient in to their bay.

Namaste,

Reiki Doc

Reiki, Science and Naturopathic Physicians



I had a comment on one of my posts: Reiki Doc? Aren't you supposed to believe in the Scientific Method?

I also had a request to post on Facebook a petition for Naturopathic Doctors to be titled as Physicians.

I have spent the last three days in very deep thought. Let me condense my findings:
  • I felt a twinge of the challenge a guest speaker who was an oncologist 'soapboxed' about for an hour in this speech on Alternative and Complimentary Medicine. I felt like letting someone else have the title of 'physician' might in some way 'lessen' my hard work and life dedication to allopathic medicine. It 'hurt'.
  • For those of you who are not in the medical field, the fields of medical practice, in descending order of rigorousness and difficulty getting 'in' and 'finishing training' are: 
  1. D.V.M.--veterinary medicine. Super-impacted programs, super competitive. From what I understand, must start volunteer work at fifteen with single-minded goal to get admitted.
  2. M.D. --this is allopathic medicine--4 years undergrad, 4 years med school, and at least internship plus three years residency. Competitive, as in 30 applicants for spot in medical school. 
  3. D.O. --osteopathic medicine--same as above, but less standard allopathic academic material in a way because chiropractic medicine is also taught in the four years of training.
  4. D.D.S. --Dentistry. Very hard to get in. Very tough boards to pass.
  5. Pharm D--Pharmacist. Much licensing, much training, with residency in hospital optional, but mandatory for work in a hospital setting
  6. D.P.M. --Podiatrist. They work with me at my hospital. Nice docs, very calm. Formal residency training in O.R. is mandatory.
  7. D.C. --Chiropractor. Will have to look up the curriculum, but in talking with one of my chiropractors in the past, it seemed 'close' to the way medicine is taught, but parallel. Not sure if stays in hospital overnight with sick patients. Probably not.
  8. N.D. --similar bachelors' degree prerequisite and subjects. Rigorousness varies across different programs. Very few residencies. I do know I have always had a Kneipp product available at my home since freshman year college--I was just drawn to it, and wondered why or how I was.
  9. Acupuncture--I was treated at a school in San Diego. Very traditional, with good training, but no staying up all night in the hospital!
  10. Physical Therapy, Nutrition, Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Physician Assistant, CRNA, Nurse Midwife--all require some training after college degree, all are in 'conventional medicine'. Are in hospital at all hours, but with shorter shifts, and breaks, which M.D.'s do not get in the hospital.
  11. RN/LVN/NA--can go from a two year program at a community college all the way to a Doctorate in Nursing. Is competitive, and in 'Conventional Medicine'. Nurses that do the toughest, highest 'acuity' patients are (in no particular order) NICU, SICU, CCU, MICU, PACU, OR, PICU, and Burn ICU. There is Neurosurgery ICU, too.
  12. Xray techs, CT scan techs, MRI techs, Cath Lab techs, Nuclear Medicine techs, ...many many more I might have forgot. If there is a specialty, there is a tech, even and Ortho Cast technician...usually in a technical program, with a licensing exam.
  13. Not sure exactly where midwives and doulas fit in as far as training and licensing is concerned. Same for Homeopathy, Ayuveda, and other Healing arts.
  14. Edgar Cayce-type healers. People who work with Spirit and the Higher Realms for healing, and whose technical accuracy are only now being discovered behind the 'cures'. They just 'do it' and are pioneers.
  • One of the problems in the past was that medicine was 'unregulated': it was an apprenticeship, very regional style of care, and there were many lives lost. Think of the surgeons, in suits, who went from the anatomy lab to doing pelvic exams on laboring women without washing their hands! More women died of puerpural fever IN the hospital than at home with a midwife.
  • I 'get' that we are going to have to 'forge something in the healing arts together'--and give up our 'turf' in a sense. Was acupuncture discovered by randomized, double-blind studies? No way! Even now we are just beginning to understand how acupuncture 'works', as measurements before this time were not physically possible.
  • I put my Reiki Doc 'woo woo' skills into this category--not yet measurable physical phenomena. Masaru Emoto has done seminal work with water crystals in this regard--'science of woo woo'
  • Naturopathic Medicine is like the 'primary care' of all the Alternative Medicine Arts--they know a little about all of them, and about conventional medicine too, but no 'staying up all night with sick patients' like I do. (I did last night! Woken up at two a.m. and six-twenty a.m. for epidurals)
  • Patients want to heal. Patients want to feel better. Love is an essential component in this healing art.
  • On Science: I am a Chemical Engineer by training. The physical sciences are robust. The biological sciences--no so accurate. They are almost to the realm of Product Development Science in Marketing Research and Consumer Testing--'give me the answer you want and I will tell you the question you have to ask'. And the statisticians will tell you how many people to ask (how powerful) to show a difference. There is a trend called 'Meta Analysis' where you take the results of different tests, blend the papers together, and analyze them overall for 'super trends'. If you ask me, there is just too much error in the Meta Analysis method. But it is 'standard of care' in 'peer reviewed evidence based medicine' on which our government-backed 'protocols' are being built.
  • Louis Pasteur was once on a train, praying the Rosary. His seat mate teased him, and challenged him, citing the superiority of science over religion, and taunted him why he still had to pray on those beads. Pasteur, humbled and unrecognized by the seat mate, asked, 'Tell me more of this Science that you discuss. If this is true, I want no more part of this Science!' and broke down in tears. Pasteur had a special devotion to Mother Mary his entire life, and dedicated his life-saving work to Her...
  • All people in Medicine pray. Sometimes 'formally', sometimes even if not religious, a heart-felt, 'help me God with this horrible situation--clinically--help me to do what is right and do it well'.
Therefore I am saying, Science and Medicine are One. Healing and Religious Faith are ONE. 

When it comes right down to it, illness is an energetic imbalance that responds to Love, Compassion, Concern, and Caring.

It is from this foundation that the future of all Healing shall be built. When 'Quackery'--the misuse of the healing paradigm for one's own personal benefit by the twisting of science into 'flim flam' is no longer possible--through Ascension and the ability to intuitively and instantly KNOW someone's intent by reading their aura; when Quackery is no longer possible, things are going to more very fast forward from where we are today. Hold on to your hats! This is going to be a MIRACLE!*

Namaste,

Reiki Doc

* Note: that in the fifth dimension, physical illness no longer can exist. We will need some 'transition', but the end point is health and youth and vigor!

Life Flight




A helicopter flew overhead right now. While I was walking back from the mailbox.
It was red, and the path it was taking led me to understand it was a MedEvac flight, or Life Flight, if you will. I pointed up and said, 'Change It'. This is something I am permitted to do due to my Divine Peace Healing Certification. This directs the angels to fix something. (It has worked on sick plants, chemtrails, and the like).

I knew from the path it was going from a local hospital, to a bigger city one. And I experienced claircognizance--and clairsentience. I knew at once it was a newborn with a congenital heart defect that was fighting for its life. I cried and asked the angels to make sure the child was not alone. I could feel the flight nurses and doctors working feverishly to save the child. Time. There was not enough time...

I had to write.

One of my favorite experiences as a doctor has been the times I have been on the heliport when the Life Flight came in. The energy of it is so holy. Here is someone in trouble, very big trouble, who is at the point where help can be given. And help like me and my team are waiting in the wings, waiting for the patient to land. It is deafening. And it is windy, so strong it could knock you over and you have to brace yourself. There is a line on the ground for safety, you can't go past it till the rotor stops. The clock starts ticking once the gurney with the Flight Team starts wheeling them into the Emergency Room. Every fiber of my being is alive at that moment. You are not sure what you are going to get. And your senses are processing the situation all at once, eyes and ears taking information from the patient, the paramedics, and the medical personnel as you are quickly wheeling the patient into the Hospital.

On my first cardiac surgery rotation, we had a flight come in like this with an aortic dissection. My cardiac surgery fellow, a handsome man who was recently divorced and very depressed, was waiting with me. I asked him, 'how does it feel?'
He shot back, 'how does it feel WHAT?'
'How does it feel to know that this flight is coming for you, for your skills, for your talent at saving a life threatened by sudden blood vessel rupture near the heart?'
He looked at me, straight on, thought about it, and replied, 'If I wasn't so worried for this case, I suppose it would feel great.'

I have seen people whose bike rode off a cliff, terrible car accidents, a pilot that crashed a plane at an air show, a young Down's Syndrome girl with an arm severed in a car accident, an illegal immigrant on a bicycle hit by a Mack Truck, a one year old with a hand stuck in a meat grinder (meat grinder still attached), a self-impalement with a big branch from a tree, someone who ate sunglasses (liked to eat glass), a barb from a foxtail weed stuck in an airway, in addition to the usual gun and knife club patients. This was all before I became a Reiki Master/Teacher and Karuna Reiki Master/Teacher (TM). And every one of those poor patients got the best there was at the time to really help them.

I don't know why people in the Holistic Health Sciences do not openly respect the Trauma Doctors and Nurses for their work saving lives. The Holistics go on and on about how the Medical System is a failure. When pressed, most people I meet say, 'If there is an emergency then I would accept standard medical care.' But they say it reluctantly.


If you listen to a Homeopath, they would say that disease is directional. There are superficial body conditions that are easy to heal, such as illnesses found in children. Then there are body problems such as hypertension that are chronic, and require a lifetime to treat. What goes further in are mental problems, forgetfulness and distraction, or psychological disease. And the most severe is deepest inside, a loss of a will to live, hatred, and resentment. It is a combination of the physical, mental and spiritual attitudes that makes the picture of imbalance, including the position/direction and severity of the illness as it presents. These trauma patients are off the charts in severity. No matter how it presents, disease is a lesson for the patient to understand; it is the body as an instrument trying to get the Entity that lives within it's attention. An imbalance has gone way out of whack and needs to be rebalanced, or the lesson will get louder and more attention-getting.


There needs to be discussion between the various healing specialties. Homeopaths and Osteopaths and Chiropractors, Energy Healers, Karuna Healers, Divine Peace Healers, Shamans, Acupuncturists, Herbalists, Nutritionists and the like. Everyone in the medical center, from the cafeteria to the person who sterilizes the instruments in the O.R., has a chance to be present and a healer at the same time they are doing their ordinary work.

How can this hostility that I pick up from my Yoga friends towards Allopathic Medicine open up  dialogue on behalf of the patient's benefit? Must we always be on opposite sides of the fence? Why can't we just all get along?

Pamela Miles has done wonders to bridge the gap between alternative and traditional medicine. She has spent the last twenty-five years honing the language between the two, so that Reiki and Medicine can actually talk to each other. Medicine is a language, a culture, and a discipline where there is very little time to explore alternate healing pathways. There are just too many sick people out there who need to be fixed for us to take the time to explore and learn.* I went to night classes myself, on Psychic Development. I took Reiki on the weekends. But it was my heart that was sending me to it. What about the people who are in traditional medicine but their hearts are not yet awake? Who is going to wake them up? It is YOU my enlightened brothers and sisters.

Love is the Solution to Everything.

Let us bring in the future together, holding hands, with great respect for ALL our healing traditions. It's gonna ROCK! And once we get our 5th dimensional bodies that do not break, we healers can enjoy each other and share stories about all the fantastic healing work we have done.

Namaste,

Reiki Doc

* = typical day for me--up at 4:15 a.m., drop off at daycare at 6:30 a.m., in O.R. by 7:10 a.m., patient on table at 7:30 a.m., no gaps or breaks between cases longer than perhaps 10 minutes, until 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., sometimes longer. Go home, get dinner, bedtime, and start again. There are no breaks. There is no lunch. And the only way to get vacation is for someone else to agree to do your work for you on that day.

Open Letter to Aimee Copeland

http://medicaldaily.com/news/20120615/10324/aimee-copeland-flesh-eating-bacteria.htm



Dear Aimee,

I am sorry that you lost your legs and your hands.

I know first-hand how horrible pain medication can make you feel. I had surgery on June 5th earlier this month. I hated the pain medication too. They gave me Dilaudid.  I felt itchy and I scratched so hard I made myself get scabs all over my body. And the constipation was most awful.

I am an anesthesiologist. I am also a Karuna Reiki Master/Teacher (TM). Do you know what that means?

It means I am one of us. Holistic. And I wear the little white coat. I am an M.D. I went through the training and I work in a hospital twenty minute's drive from my house. I take call in the hospital, and have to be able to come in the middle of the night for emergency cases. I do both and I do well at it.

I actually give Reiki to my patients while they sleep, to take advantage of their weakened auric system and blast them with the Light. Sometimes I attune people to Reiki when I am guided to do so while they are asleep. Now do you trust me? Will you listen to what is truly best for you?

You honor your holistic training and yourself by taking the best and leaving the rest of both holistic and traditional medicine. It makes you a healer. It brings you in balance. And it helps you to feel better! How can you be an example for others when you are not at your best?

Phantom Limb Pain is real. I read about it studying for my Board Examinations. Sometimes people who had an accident and lost and arm will feel it 'sticking out'. They will pass through a door sideways so as not to hit it.

People who undergo amputation and get a nerve block at the beginning of surgery (spinal for the leg, or a combined 3-in-1/Sciatic....or a interscalene/supraclavicular for the arm) tend to avoid this complication of Phantom Limb Pain. Because of your infection, and how aggressive it was, your team was likely concerned it would spread if they used these invasive numbing procedures to protect you from later pain. Saving your life was their number one priority.

We see this, in the University Hospital, about once or twice a year. Meningococcemia in kids, who lose multiple limbs due to impaired blood flow from a bacteria. Stevens Johnson syndrome, somewhat a mystery as to why the body reacts much in the same way to a trigger, usually a drug. And to your situation, necrotizing fasciitis, more often seen in 'skin poppers' who have no veins left to inject the i.v. drugs. In every case, doctors and nurses and respiratory techs fight hard to save a life. Day and night, untiringly, working past fatigue because there is no time to waste with this enemy.

Now your life is saved, and you are suffering.

I have a word for you. In fact we have two bodies superimposed upon each other. Your energetic body is still whole.  It is there. When people have parasitic energetic entities sucking on their second chakra (Negative Entities and Dark Entities, see www.margaretmccormick.com) and they have a hysterectomy, guess what? Those NE's and DE's are still attached to that second chakra after surgery!


There was a writer who shared how he was talking to a homeless person, with poor teeth and many missing, and how during the conversation the homeless man would seem clean and have a beautiful smile at times, and then go back to looking the way he was. The reason is that the conversation was flipping back and fourth between the 3rd and 5th Dimension. In the 5th Dimension, our energetic bodies are 'us', and they are perfect in every way.

Because of this situation, you have an Earthly Body, and an Energetic Body, that do not match. And this is causing you great suffering.

From the conventional, try a block when it is safe. That is what we call these numbing procedures. See if you can break the cycle of the pain before it sets. There is a chronic pain syndrome called Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, type 1 and type 2. You would have type 1 due to actual nerve damage. There is a branch of anesthesiology that deals with this exclusively. It is called Pain Medicine. Find yourself someone you trust, early, and see what they can do. You might have some options that will work for you. Do look up the CRPS 1 information, though, and educate yourself.

As  Reiki Doc, I am sending you distance healing. I can do that. Right now. I am starting it.

You have a beautiful aura. It is very healthy. I am surprised by it as I connect.


I feel the loss of energy in your arms, and I feel something like an i.v. on the left elbow.
The feet are okay.


Here is what I pick up when I cleanse and balance your chakras:


First Chakra: ground to Gaia. Connect. Connect. Your abundance is assured by the angels.
Second Chakra: feel your feelings, they are your guidance. They will be rocky for a while. Let them out.
Third Chakra: You have the power to do anything. You are like Monika Korra*. Your will is Strong!
Fourth Chakra: you are loved and have the ability to love. You are not dead. There is a great deal of family and friend love supporting you. And love from others who have heard your story too, like myself.
Fifth Chakra: this one is on FIRE. You have a story to inspire others. 'You are BEAUTIFUL', as Nick Vujicic** would say. Look him up, see his films. They bring tears to my eyes, he is so hooked in to Source.
Sixth Chakra: it is highly developed. It will increase more.
Seventh Chakra: there is this beautiful column of bright, whiter than white light about six inches diameter shining into your head. It is your connection to Source, and it is SHINING


The fearless YOU who wanted to experience the joy and thrill of zip lining is unchanged and still deep inside. That is your essence, your spirit, your love of Life.


Yes, Aimee, I did that right now, here in my pajamas, in California. I can send healing back and forth in Time, and across great distance. And the healing is instant. My friend in Hawaii had a problem, I was sitting in the O.R. and the patient was stable, and I sent it. It takes me about five minutes. When I give Reiki in the O.R., I use my eyes to draw the symbols, when everyone would see me with my hands. My friend felt it at once. It works, this Reiki thing, although I am not the best at being able to explain it.

Other Holistic healing to try: Homeopathic Medicine. It rocks. Find a Homeopath and answer all their long boring questions at the interview at first. They will help you. Also try acupuncture/Oriental Medicine, for they can move the energy around, perhaps 'rewiring' you to accommodate your new configuration and avoid the CRPS 1. And if any of my readers have any options that would be amenable to Aimee, please, put them in the comments after this. It will take many healing hands together to get her on her Way. And we all know what that is, like Bethany Hamilton***, a powerful chance for Aimee to know herself and get to help others.

Aimee, whatever resonates with you, go ahead and try it. These are suggestions. I encourage you to take the best and leave the rest--from EVERYBODY! You are a pioneer in all healing modalities.

We are One, all of us, Lightworkers, on this journey through Life together.

Namaste,

Reiki Doc
