The Healing of Margo the Dog
Something was wrong! It was Saturday night, Margo-Rita (Margo), my dog, wouldn’t or couldn’t jump up on the bed. I could hear her stomach growling from across the room, her breathing was heavy and labored. I sat on the floor with her for a bit, deciding to let her be and see how her natural ability to heal would proceed. The next morning she was still suffering great stomach distress and panting heavily. I decided it was time to do a Reiki session.
When doing a Reiki session, one must be a clear channel for the healing energy, without being attached to the outcome; leaving that to God-Divine. Having no agenda of what or how the healing would unfold was a challenge. Margo is not only a companion but a friend. She has taught me so much. Her joy for life, ever smiling, ever present and her unconditional love for everyone has been a shining example. As pet lovers out there know, our creatures are dear family members.
During the Reiki healing session I let go of my desire of outcome for my beloved pet, trusting God’s will be done. After a while Margo heaved a deep sigh. Her body began to relax and then she passed gas repeatedly (ugh-stinky), she was transforming. As I continued the Reiki, her breathing settled down, she gave several deep sighs and fell asleep, just like my clients!
Reiki is genuinely holistic and non-invasive. It promotes balance – in body, mind and spirit and is valuable in boosting the immune system. It is used in many prestigious hospitals in our country in conjunction with traditional therapies like Chemotherapy and Radiation. I recently worked with a client going through Chemo and Radiation with remarkable results. Overwhelming clinical research has proven, Reiki alleviates pain and accelerates healing time. Reiki promotes wellness in people and animals.
Later that day I did one more session on Margo, her breathing completely stabilized, she released more noxious odors and was back to her usual joyful self. “These things ye shall do and more.”
Researching Reiki’s use on animals, I discovered it is used worldwide by animal lovers and is growing rapidly in popularity. So for all the skeptics who think much of the healing and relief people experience is just the power of suggestion, animals may be the greatest proof positive. Just watching Margo lie there with the ability to just be and see the dramatic changes and healing occur was astonishing. Even to me it was an amazing testimonial.

I have a client with cancer who is undergoing chemo and radiation. We have been working together for about a month using Reiki and EFT. I’ll call her Emmy. When Emmy first came she was stressed about the holidays and not having the strength to take care of everyone else and her deep dislike of taking all the pills her medical doctors prescribed. Using EFT on the mental and emotional aspects of these issues, she quickly came to ease with both of these situations. Emy also reported that when she first came she was experiencing a good amount of pain from her surgery which the doctors had said would go away in 6 mos. to a year. This pain disappeared during our first session and has not returned.
Week before last Emmy arrived looking like she had lost some weight. She said the sores in her mouth were too painful to eat (these sores were the result of her cancer treatments). We did 4 rounds, about 10 minutes of EFT and all her pain was gone. This past week she reported little to no pain still in her mouth and had been tapping on herself. Yeah!
This past week Emmy said she was having severe gastro distress and the ‘runs” and was tired and only wanted the Reiki. After her session she reported all her stomach distress was gone and that she felt peaceful and well rested.
I can’t take credit for any of these wonderful affects for Emy, for the work is done through me, not by me.

What is Reiki?
Wanting to share more than my own personal experience as a Reiki Master Practitioner I researched studies on Reiki in preparing this article and found overwhelming amounts of clinical and scientific data, spiritual insights and even an entire website dedicated to Reiki for Christians (http://www.christianreiki.org/).
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is the “laying on of hands” for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is an ancient healing technique that uses the life force energy to heal. Reiki addresses physical, emotional, mental and spiritual imbalances and sessions are usually done on a massage table with the client fully clothed except for shoes. The practitioner becomes a conduit for the channeling of this healing life force energy. Reiki does not impose a set of beliefs and is used by people of all backgrounds and faiths.
Clinical research supports Reiki’s effectiveness in treatment for pain and side effects for such conditions as fibromyalgia, AIDS, chemotherapy, cancer support, reducing nerve pain and cardiovascular risk, progression and/or anxiety in people with prostate cancer and so on.
What does science say? An independent research by Dr. Robert Becker and Dr. John Zimmerman showed that during Reiki sessions, the biomagnetic field of the practitioners’ hands is at least 1000 times greater than normal. They discovered that the pulses are in the same frequencies as brain waves, and sweep up and down from 0.3 – 30 Hertz (Hz), focusing mostly in 7 – 8 Hz, alpha state. Independent medical research has shown that this range of frequencies will stimulate healing in the body. For example, 2 Hz encourages nerve regeneration, 7Hz bone growth, 10Hz ligament mending, and 15 Hz capillary formation.
Dr. Becker states that ‘brain waves’ also travel throughout the body via the perineural system, the sheaths of connective tissue surrounding all nerves. During Reiki treatment, these waves gather cumulative strength as they flow to the peripheral nerves of the body including the hands. It is this system, more than any other, that regulates injury repair and system rebalance. Dr. Becker carried out his study on a world-wide array of cross-cultural subjects, and no matter what their belief systems or customs, or how opposed to each other their customs were, all tested the same.
There are also many prestigious hospitals around the country that offer Reiki, such as Johns Hopkins, Yale School of Nursing, Temple University, George Washington University Hospital, Stanford Medical Center and Mercy Hospital, to name just a few.
What do clients say who come for Reiki sessions? “That was profoundly relaxing.” “I feel so much more in balance and in tune with my body and surroundings.” “I feel refreshed.” “My pain is gone.” “I no longer have those sinus headaches I’ve had for years.” “I no longer have the symptom of Reynaud’s disease.” “Colors seem much more vibrant.” “I feel great, like the weight of the world has been lifted.” “I am completely at peace.” “I feel so wonderfully alive.”
Clients report many different types of experiences during their Reiki sessions. Some feel as though they are floating, some see colors, or visions, almost all experience the radiant warmth of the Reiki energy. One woman described the experience as being as penetrating and comforting as a hot stone massage.
Delightful hugs,

What I see on my own path of healing and those who come to me for “energy healing” is that false beliefs about oneself and unresolved emotional traumas are the underlying cause of many of our diseases and unfortunate life patterns. Further, by resolving and/or correcting these issues the Son-Light of the Soul is no longer blocked and flows effortlessly through us. Hence the healings, which I consider true healings, are ones that occur on the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual levels.
EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) isn’t “the only way”, but it is “a way” that
is serving many people to live a life free from the emotional bondage of past events and false, self defeating beliefs, replacing them with acceptance and love. One needs only the courage to look within.
We can espouse a theory on healing all we want. To me, the proof is, does it work? That’s what attracted me so whole heartedly to EFT. EFT is a gentle tapping procedure which clears the body’s energy meridians. It was originally designed by and for the psychotherapy profession to clear emotional disturbances. It soon became evident that profound physical healings were also taking place.
EFT’s discovery statement is “The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system.” These disruptions can be caused by myriad experiences such as rape, abuse, traumas of all sorts: physical, emotional, mental. Something as seemingly small as being ridiculed in front of the class in grade school to war memories, can create energy disruptions which we carry with us and manifest in other areas of our life.
In Doctor George G. Ritchie’s book Ordered to Return, George quotes a Rhodes Scholar and Chairman of the Department of Pathology at the Medical College of Virginia “…you who would be doctors. Something happens to a human being from the time he is well until the time he becomes clinically sick which is not included in scientific medicine as we know it today. Human beings do not suddenly become sick. Did you ever stop to think the word disease comes from two words dis (without) and ease (bliss, well being, happiness)? Do not man’s thoughts and actions lead to disease?”
So our unfortunate life patterns and our physical symptoms seem to be neon signs, red flags, if you will, pointing the way to our deepest healings. When this happens my favorite prayer is “Thank you for the blessings before me which I cannot see.” Indeed, being given a message of dis-ease and looking within we are given an opportunity.
I plan on teaching EFT workshops this winter and spring. If you are interested in learning EFT for your personal use, as part of your healing service to others, or would like an appointment, please contact me.

Three Gifts That Changed My Life
For the longest time I thought that Reiki and Healing Touch were the end all of all end alls. (Don’t get me wrong, they are incredible tools for healing and personal growth.) Little did I know that my own health issues would bring me to my knees and ultimately to my healing, which I must add, continues to be an ongoing process. In the process I was forced to expand my healing horizon.
In 2003 I had an MRI which revealed stenosis in the neck. As I understand this, it means that the spinal column is closing in on the spinal cord, OUCH! Last year the headaches became a predominate factor in my life. It became a rare occasion not to have a headache and their severity was beyond bearing. Life became a living hell.
It was humbling to have to resort to the medical profession for help but that too was a part of my healing and opened my eyes to the imminent value in a multi-directional approach to health and healing.
During this time I received 3 gifts that would change my life. The first was a prayer from a friend, Cindi, “Thank you for the blessings before me which I cannot see.” This became my mantra, at first they were just words, more like wishful thinking. I vividly remember the day, sitting outside, under a tree, looking at the water when this prayer blossomed in my heart and I KNEW that everything was OK and the sense that I was truly safe swept through me. The course of my life changed at that moment. This prayer continues to be an eternally blossoming flower in my heart and being.
The second gift was also from Cindi who introduced me to EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). Cindi shared about a friend who suffered Post Traumatic Stress disorder from war. He had been forced to attend a workshop on EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) but thought it was a bunch of woo woo bunk. He was soon amazed and for the first time found relief from the debilitating pain of his horrific memories. EFT is a simple tapping procedure that gently realigns the body’s energy system. EFT incorporates an emotional element to the healing process addressing unresolved emotional issues as a likely cause of physical disease, psychological dysfunction, and personal performance limits. EFT heals by clearing energy disruptions in a decidedly remarkable way.
The third gift came from my sister Paulette, who offered to pay for my EFT training. I began studying EFT with a joyous passion and I was my first guinea pig, using it on those screaming unbearable headaches. The headaches were gone after about 20 minutes of tapping on my energy meridians. This was miraculous! Now I see these sorts of healings daily with such things as bladder problems, emotional/physical trauma, fears, phobias, pain, car accidents, life-long issues and so on. EFT isn’t perfect, of course. But it usually works well and the results are sometimes spectacular. It often works where nothing else will.
