What One Year Can Do



One year ago today, I published an article about meeting my anesthesia guide, Dr. Ralph Waters. I 'met' him in spirit at my home one day before his birthday. Yes, today, this important legend in the history of anesthesiology from the University of Wisconsin, would have been one-hundred and thirty years old. I chose this boy's image, because I think there is some resemblance between Dr. Waters and him. Here is the link to the original article, so you might have a chance to read what Dr. Waters said. http://reikidoc.blogspot.com/2012/10/meeting-my-anesthesia-guide.html

He is known as the person who began the process of formal training for anesthesiologists.

As I look back on the year, it is amazing just how much I have grown in my Lightwork:

  • I had a huge crush on KP, and was making plans to meet him. I greatly admired his work, and hoped he would 'take me under his wing' and 'show me the ropes'.
  • Instead there was a major 'blow up' on his part. I think basically, he likes boys (and girls--he was interviewed by an internet radio), and even more, he likes to work alone.For his mission, there are to be no ties, no commitments, and complete and total freedom. KP will work for mochas!
  • I handled that 'dis-harmony' very well. On my trip to Hawaii, I never thought twice or looked back. I moved forward. I did a lot of energy work, went to a Halloween party (and someone asked me for my number!), and snorkeled on my 'mommy-moon', my first business trip away ever without the kid.
  • In November, I went to my first Cobra conference. I got Lady Isis to attune me to the Goddess Energies. It was my first time experiencing a 'healing chamber' and using Reiki and Tachyonized Crystals and a Quantum Goblet 'thingy' (I forget what it's called) to heal other conference attendees.
  • In December--actually in several months leading up to it--I opened Portals through synchronistic combined Light work with other Lightworkers in London, UK and Australia during certain Portal openings time windows, one a month. For the BIG one, we worked together again, and also did a great deal of blogging to share intel with others on 'what to expect'.
  • I took two trips to San Diego. In February I fed giraffes and rhinoceroses. In April, I went Sailing for the first time since med school, on the same waters where I learned to sail, Mission Bay. It was very good for my soul.
  • After a horrible OB call and having to work through the subsequent morning, I arrived totally depleted at the place which would become my new Spiritual Home--I take yoga, eat, and do Kirtan--as well as teach Reiki, provide an AED with training for the staff, and enjoy like-minded people. I also turned RAW vegan, as much as I could.  Please note how sometimes in Spirit when you are totally drained and at the end of your rope, a beautiful new chapter in your Life often follows...
  • I taught two Reiki Classes to my coworkers, a server I know, an owner of a sandwich shop, and my son's teacher. I also became more 'open' about who I am and what I do with my energy work among people close to me where I work who are interested. One day, a scrub tech asked me about my ability to see ghosts...
  • On many occasions this blog has been mentioned in Reiki News, Rod Lyman's Reiki AZ online paper, a food and porn online paper (I thought the porn part was a joke and never scrolled down all the way past my article. I sent it to my new 'crush' and was totally embarrassed! He said it was 'no biggie' and not to worry about it.). Just today the post was mentioned in Spirituality Daily. I've also been mentioned in Veggie Times.
  • In May was the second Cobra Conference. We opened the Alma Portal there. I could share more, but you might get overwhelmed with too many details, so I'll skip.
  • In June two islands in Hawaii, Swimming with Dolphins, and MUCH Lightwork!!! 
  • In August I left for three weeks in France. My French Family did so much to ease the stress and struggle on us from mother's illness and multiple hospitalizations between December and September. There was a tremendous amount of Lightwork--just look through the posts around then to see more.
  • We also made the 144,000 needed to Activate The Event online--thank you for your participation in the World Liberation Meditations!!!
  • In September there was travel to Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. It was a personally and metaphysically productive trip.
  • All the while I have been learning, growing, and clearing energies. Right now, I am in the process of major organizing of my home. A close friend and many workers are being coordinated for this long-overdue help to ease my busy life.
  • I have been published in a major publication by a colleague on Cancer--my real name is in it! With Reiki! and M.D. Page 80 is all mine, baby!!!
  • At this moment, I am in surrender to my feelings and in complete and total Trust with the Universe. I discovered one who says he is my Twin Flame, and now I've lost contact with him suddenly. Surprisingly enough, I am okay with it. How can one 'lose' a Twin Soul? On some level, that's not happening! He has his reasons, there is the timing, and frankly, I must give thanks for having 'tasted' that energy of someone's loving support on a Higher Vibration. If I had one last thing to say to him, it would be, the concept, 'The Lion bows to no one but his Lady' made no sense whatsoever here in California. It's either one way or the other out on the West Coast. I thought your kindness, much as it was appreciated and heartfelt, might have been making fun of me in front of your friends online; what posts I saw besides yours to me I found concerning because I am not like that, nor do I spend what precious free time I have, with people who curse (even if it's manly) and post music videos that make a sailor blush! I have ALL ETERNITY to figure this one out, if you really are my Twin. It's all good.
A big part of the year has been spent waiting for 'the other shoe to drop'. It's been a long hard year on all of us, waiting for The Event and the society changes to follow...

As my dad would say, 'it's time for the kick to finish well in the race'.

I know you're tired. So am I. But what can we do? Give up?

Today, I was overjoyed to see my dear friend and on-again, off-again crush. But then our mutual friend told me they were going to see the lawyer to negotiate a contract. It involved my Seraphim moving away to a very far drive for me. Tears flowed quietly as I was told the news. They were upset because a health violation delayed the opening for two months already...

I spoke heart to heart with the one I admire so much I let her think SHE's the only Big Spiritual Person between us...I surrendered to my Heart...I come here for the energy. I can tell if he's here or not. I can feel it. This is my only place I go for ME. I talk to angels every day. I am on projects to help coordinate something huge that is happening. Big changes. You'd never believe me if I explained what. But...the responsibility on my shoulders now is a LOT more than the responsibility I have with other people's lives like I do when I am at work. I don't know where else I would go without him...I want you to know I understand it is his dream, and he 'needs to go', but I am praying Twice As Hard for this project not to happen. The changes are going to be soon anyway...let him do what he wants to do...but Heaven is Coming To Earth...and this is the only place I have to go to take care of my spiritual needs/energy until it happens!

She looked at me, eyes opening wider and wider. Then she poked me in the arm, and said, 'That's what my sources tell me too. The same thing! Heaven is coming to Earth!' 

And she had to go.

I never could have said any of that one year ago...It's been a good year.

Happy Birthday Dr. Waters! Thank you for your guidance and Light.

Aloha and Mahalos,
Namaste,

Reiki Doc

Coach Carlos Mantis Wolf Plantar



O Newly Awakened Ones:

Does this title make any sense to you? It makes perfect sense to me! It has to do with my recent lessons from Spirit. They are right for me, and on my level of 'life lessons'. Each word has a story behind it, which later I will explain. 

One of the most challenging things about being A Newly Awakened One, is that the excitement at being Awakened makes one want to rush out and share this new awakening to the WORLD!

The world, perhaps, or even your significant other, is not at your level of consciousness.
They might not have eyes that see and ears that hear like you.

There is a quote that goes something like, 'The two reasons why you should not teach a pig to sing: 1) it isn't going to work and 2) it annoys the pig'. I wouldn't say, 'pearls before swine' because that indicates that the pig will forever be a pig and never appreciate the pearl's value. Your loved one simply is on a different time table than you, even if you are Soul Mates or Twin Flames.

What I can say is, your higher Vibration/Consciousness/Awareness is going to directly interact with their aura, which will bypass the brain/mind, and either help uplift them (if they are on Ascension course) or drive them away (leaving room for someone of new higher vibration in your life ).

Does this make  sense to you?

It is only logical that Spirit works through the Heart, and Logic works through the Mind, does it not? But having been Newly Awakened, your Heart is going to process it and RESONATE with what is right for you.

Long story short: if it feels good (resonates) do it. Follow your own Bliss. It is the only way to 'lift anyone up'. 

So stop trying to annoy that pig in your life! And DO seek companionship/friendship with like-minded others, such as you would find in Psychic Development Class at a reputable place near you.

Coach:
I was guided there to buy a business card holder today at the mall. It turns out that Coach is into 'energy' and 'what you bring to the workplace' has an effect on people and things. The energy there was marvelous, I made three friends who were delighted to discover that I am Reiki Doc. And like all good high-end merchandisers, they promised to be very discreet about my identity.

Carlos:
My next-door neighbor, the brother of the woman of the house. He came home physically exhausted, and energetically depleted. I saw a brown bag with takeout food in it. We waved as we drove in the driveway. I came out, and asked, 'How was your day?'. It was long, and hard. He works in the car wash. It is either too much work, or not enough because of the rain. 'Go and put your feet up!' I said, cheerfully. 'I had a long day, too. Would you like to see how I put my feet up? I smell my plumeria flowers as I go from the car to the kitchen. You haven't smelled this before? It is the scent of Hawaii, and when I sniff I take myself there. Here, take a whiff!' He leaned over, and a smile came across his face (he looks like a street person, all weathered and grizzled, and the smile was beautiful!). 'You know, this smells like banila' he said with his accented English. 'I know. I go from one job--work--to another--mom--and this is all the break I get. I really enjoy it. Feel free to smell them any time!'.

Mantis:
This has to do with some martial arts that is truly inspiring me at the moment. Focus is when your eyes are looking, your ears are listening and your mind is thinking!

Wolf:
I got this sign while taking the Reiki Master boy to the doctor yesterday. It was on  top of the x-ray light box, a brand label, but it had a 'sense' to it like it was a message for me. I looked it up: Teacher. That was secondary confirmation for the Ralph Waters blog post. Happy Birthday Ralph! (note--the blog calendar starts at 5 p.m. the day before it hits in California. Although today here is his birthday, when I posted it yesterday it was just in time for the international date line.)

Plantar:
What I thought was a big 'nothing' was plantar fascitis. I had it. It was crippling for my sister. Now one of my kids has it too. But the doc is amazing! Refused to take another x-ray due to concern for 'lifetime exposure'. Prescribed a topical ointment for pain relief that is from a compounding pharmacist. Recommended 'grounding', which is bare feet on earth/dirt to allow electrical equilibration of the person with ground. Also suggested I do 'energy work' on the foot. And cushions for both shoes, but one with a hole in it for the sore one. He said to go into salt water, the ocean, and take a wave to the back. I smiled and said, 'these are Ascension symptoms. People are having a lot of them in the feet. And sea salt added to a bath works just fine for clearing energy too. ' Now he wants my business cards, as Reiki Doc! I will get some to him... : )
I did the energy work tonight. It's not just 'on the foot'. Reiki touched in one place can go anywhere there is need for healing. The child's chakras were way out of whack, and I had just balanced them a week ago.  This is the nature of the learning experience! Pure Reiki by Usui, hands-on, does not recommend 'balancing chakras'. I find it helps people to link the energetic 'balance' with something that is visual (a pendulum swing). It shows how they get better right before their eyes. It works well to get people interested in the energetic healing arts. I highly recommend it. (Reiki III and above can do it).

Namaste,

Reiki Doc

Meeting My Anesthesia Guide



I have always 'known' what size endotracheal tube to pick, even before looking in the chart, or meeting my patient. As I set up, I get this 'inner knowing' what size tube will be correct. (A rough estimate is the size of the patient's pinkie finger, or for an LMA, the size of the palm of their hand.)

How I 'know' this, I am not certain, but I have appreciated it ever since I was a resident.

In Psychic Development classes, I learned that there is always a Medical Guide with me. I have never known, seen, or 'spoken' with him. My friends say he is a man, about middle age.

Today, after a short day at work, I came home early, and was especially tired. I parked the station wagon in the garage, made my trip to hang up the keys, and came back with a kefir. I just sat on the back of the station wagon with the hatch up, enjoying the sun, and wincing at the Persian lady who just moved in from New York screaming in anger out the windows of her house at the top of her lungs.

Just then I sensed a spirit of a man, very mild mannered, average height and weight. He had a humble bow of sorts, and glasses. He was balding, and very very plain like someone from the Midwest. His energy was one of quiet strength, of reserve, of vast experience in the specialty.

G: You don't have to worry about that...it will turn out all right.
C: (I had been thinking about my crush, and what was going to happen. It is a long distance thing, and first meeting is in two weeks. The gentleness of this voice caught me off guard. Compassionate and kind.) Are you my Medicine Guide?
G: I am.
C: What is your specialty?
G: Anesthesia, just like you.
C: Are you one of the people that invented anesthesia?
G: No...I was much later.
C: (in my mind I see a picture of before I was born, but in modern times, not antique ones--30's, perhaps) Do I know you?
G: No. We have not met.
C: Thank you for all of your help. I really appreciate it. May I ask you a question? At the end of your career, what was it like? When you got to Heaven, looking back, what did you think?
G: (smiles) I signed back up, didn't I? (as sponsor for me). I picked you because you are the best at what you are about to do. I am Ralph Waters.
C: OMG! You ARE someone famous! (there are talks in his name, lectures, at the conferences, but I couldn't place the name or the face or the role in our specialty).
G: Go ahead, look it up.

I did.
You can see him for yourself.
I am so blessed to have a pioneer of the teaching of anesthesia as my guide! It is amazing!
This is like Montague Keen for Anesthesiology!
Here he is:
the video! He started with 'teaching films' to show intubation. Scroll down, it is on this page, the movie.

I tried to lift a picture of him for up above. It didn't work. So I looked at this site:


1883 October 9: Ralph M. Waters is born. Dr. Waters' achievements during a long career at the University of Wisconsin make him the father of academic anesthesia in the United States . Dr. Waters died in 1979. For more information see Lucien E. Morris, Mark E. Schroeder, Mary E. Warner, eds. A Celebration of 75 Years Honoring Ralph Milton Waters, M.D., Mentor to a Profession. Wood Library-Museum of Anesthesiology, 2004 [Proceedings of the Ralph M. Waters Symposium on Professionalism in Anesthesiology, Madison ,Wisconsin , June 2002]

Ralph M. Waters, M.D. [1883-1979]

His Birthday is today, October 9, and he would have been 129 years old.

I have tears in my eyes at the generosity of this beautiful man.

It is my honor to serve you and my patients in whatever capacity I have.

Namaste, Namaste, Namaste,

Reiki Doc
