So, I now am officially – a little drum roll please
– a Reiki practitioner. Reiki is an unusual healing technique involving laying
on of the hands. Bob had taken the beginning course way BJAS (Before Janet and
Stephanie) to help ease his uncle’s pain with cancer. While growing up,
Stephanie would call on Bob to use Reiki to help upset tummies, skinned knees
and stuffy noses. His hands heat up faster than a mug in a micro. Don’t ask me
how – they just do. So anyway, now we both have progressed to actually be
certified as practitioners. Pretty neat stuff! I tried using my new skills on
Teddy when he was in town. He quickly proclaimed that Nanny’s hands got too
hot. His congestion also got better.
You know I wouldn’t stop there. I am also working
on becoming a Meditation Instructor through the American Institute of Health
Care Professionals. It feels good to have a text, some papers and a yellow highlighter
in hand. I know that meditation has helped reduce the medication, so I have to
be on the right road. I’m not sure where I will go with all of this newfound
knowledge, but you can’t blame a girl from trying. I’ll do anything to help
reduce the pain that Bob and I have. (Well maybe almost anything.) Anyway, I am
just about finished with the first class. Don’t be alarmed if you hear a lot of
heavy breathing coming from this address.
It all comes down to me trying to heal. Bob and I
have to stop all this falling and crawling stuff. I’m not very photogenic down
there. At least, we are headed in the right direction and you never know what I
will do with all this added info. I know I need to work on Bob though. He keeps
falling asleep as soon as I try to get him to meditate.
Speaking of sleep, I probably better head upstairs.
I want to finish this one book. Slow down your breathing and take care.
God Uses My Chronic Pain to Prove that Life is
Good:

It’s a new togetherness for Bob and I as I slowly count and Bob snores
to the beat.
