Guest guest Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Lets see what we can come up with as a group maybe,for distance work,and perhaps wait till answers. I would have a couple of suggestions which may help. First tho where do you live? Don't answer if you need to keep that info to yourself. You have obviously tried everything and everyone,and don't need another aggravation. Depending on how this is managed here within the group, if you requested ''distance work'',i would offer and see what can be achieved. Igor. Of course you have no clue who Igor is.......but does and we have met each other. : ladyinsubstance: Thu, 17 May 2007 14:24:05 +0000Subject: Re: how to handle pain - addendum I forgot to mention that my symptoms started shortly after an ordeal Ihad as a teenager with a scoliosis (curvature of the spine), a massivespinal fusion and a near-death experience after the surgery.--- In , " Alexandria " <ladyinsubstance wrote:>> Hi group!> > My recent Kundalini re-awakening, as I call it, is (I think) involving> some very specific pain and discomfort and I wanted to see if anyone> had any ideas about what I can do about it.> > This is a little personal, but hey, you're all just little blips on my> computer monitor, so what the hell...> > I've got a bladder condition that I've had since my teenage years> called Interstitial Cystitis.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Hi there well i will explain a little on distance work. I forget and think everyone understands this term. Basically it means i sit down and run thro everything i have learned,using intuition about your condition. Then make corrections for you. This then changes how your health manifests. I do travel and lecture, and have my own private practise. (Complementary Health) People phone me all the time for distance work and it usually helps. In terms of Quantum Physics ''we are all one'', ie concepts of time and space may not be what we think. Let me give you the results of an experiment. Scientists took cells from a man who lived in Los Angeles. They put these in a dish.....they flew this fellow to New York. In New York they stressed him,the cells in the dish stressed at exactly the same time,every time.Even tho those cells were still in L.A. Therefore we are all interconnected.................. If you ask me to i will sit down and do some work from here. Lets see what changes we can achieve,then hand it over to the group as suggests. Now most of it i can do from here in Canada.............but it might need a phone call to get some of the scar tissue work done right. Its something i usually do hands on ...and i can say with confidence it works 99% of the time on the instant to get rid of adhesions /scars etc. Distance it may not be quite so effective,hence a phone call to tell you or your partner what to do ''hands on''. Other wise the rest i can do easily from here.
