Have You Ever Run Energy?Written by Jan Tincher
Have you ever run energy? Do you know what *running energy* means? (I know that this may be something foreign to many of you at first, but then that’s how you learn, right?)If you haven’t run energy before, you probably have questions. Your questions might be: What is *energy* specifically? Who runs energy? Why do they do it? How can I do it? What does it do? How can it help ME? First off, energy is like a tingling or a warmth in your hand, a feeling you get in your body that something is there that wasn’t a minute ago. You can direct that energy with your mind. For instance, watch your hand. Wait for tingle, warmth, or whatever, that may show up in your fingertips, your palm, or wherever, just from your concentration. Now when you feel that feeling, in your mind, take it from where it was, let’s say it’s in your fingertips, and move it down your finger. You have just run energy. Wasn’t that great? Now, on to your other questions. Who runs energy? Answer: Anyone can run energy. Why do they do it? Answer: Once you learn to run energy, you can direct healing energy to a place that has pain. Everyone is different, and therefore use it for different purposes, but that is one answer as to why people do it. Another might be for more warmth. What does energy do? Answer: It soothes pain. It can help with circulation, also. How can it help ME? Answer: Learning how to run energy can help you help yourself in times of need. Let’s say you have arthritis. You are just beginning to get it in your fingers. If you spend five minutes 3 times a day running energy through each of your fingers, you will feel a difference in your finger joints. Once you learn how to do that, you can run energy through other joints and help pain ease there also. Once you learn to instantaneously run energy, you will be able to lower or eliminate pain in many areas immediately.
| | Communicating With Your Doctor - A Guide to Doing It RightWritten by Becky J. Sisk
Have you ever come home from a visit to your doctor wondering if you really understood your medical problem or how to take your medications? In past, doctors were in charge of your care and you were to "follow orders." These days, patients and doctors have an equal responsibility for care. You have a right to information about your condition and treatment and doctor has a right to an accurate accounting of your history and symptoms.According to National Institute on Aging, here is what you can do to communicate better with your doctor: * Be completely honest about all of medications you take, including over-the-counter medications and herbal preparations. If you have more than one doctor, be sure each knows about all of your medications and other treatments, since dangerous interactions among medications are possible. * Also be honest about smoking and drinking. Doctors and nurses are accustomed to taking care of people who smoke or drink. They need to know if you have any habits that contribute to disease or interfere with treatment. * Your doctor may question you about a topic that you consider embarrassing, such as sexuality, memory loss, incontinence, or problems with your spouse or children. These problems often have an influence on diseases or may be caused by taking certain medications. Your doctor needs to know about them to accurately diagnosis and treat your condition. Also remember that doctor and staff members are professional people who will protect your privacy. * Make a list of your symptoms, special concerns, medical history, and current medications and give list to doctor. Doing this at home before your appointment keeps you from leaving out details. * Provide doctor with a brief, to-the-point description of your problem. What are your symptoms? How severe are they? When did they start? What brings them on? How long do they last and what relieves them? * If you are concerned about cooperating with doctor's treatment, say so. Are you worried about cost involved? Does treatment conflict with your beliefs and values? Do possible side effects of a medication bother you to extent that you are unlikely to take it?
