Some inspiring healing stories

Quantum Touch is a very interesting and effective healing modality. Here are some inspiring stories from the latest newsletter:

4. Disappearing Cancer and the Use of QT

Wendy Slatters lives in Perth, Western Australia. She is 69 years of age and has had cancer for 8 years. Wendy was diagnosed with 4th stage breast cancer and after extensive treatment that was unsuccessful was given a very poor prognosis of 3 to 6 months maximum. Being a very determined person she embarked on a variety of natural therapies over the 8 year period but eventually was worn down by the pain and physical exhaustion and began to prepare herself for the inevitable.

The day Wendy came to see me she had difficulty walking from her car to my door, a distance of 25 feet. At that time I had been doing healing work for over 25 years with mixed results. As the universe would have it, I had just completed a second live QT workshop.

Wendy's condition was cancer in the pelvis, some ribs, both lungs, both upper arms, coccyx, thickening of the pleura, liver and in one shoulder ( humeroclavicular joint ) plus other minor lesions and a blood count of 1400. All of this was accompanied by severe pain which stopped her from sleeping, because of pelvic and shoulder pain. Her biggest dread was lying on the hard table having her CT scan every 8 weeks and crying in pain for the whole 1 hour.

Wendy has now had 10 sessions of QT and after the first 4 sessions most of the pain left her body. Her blood count started to drop and her appetite increased. The QT sessions were aimed at her endocrine glands to boost her immune system and then to the organs. Her blood count now is of no interest to the Oncologist as it is normal. The report she showed me today, 23rd August 2005, stated the following: “No new lesions to be found in her body. Cancer in her arms and one shoulder has gone. Her left lung shows no lesions. Left side pleura thickening
has decreased markedly. Her breathing has improved to where she walks for 40 minutes every morning without becoming breathless.”

Wendy is enjoying walking and shopping with her friends, having lunch and now seeing life is good. Thanks to Quantum touch and the energy of Richard Gordon spreading the word, Wendy has her life back.

All of the above can be verified by doctors’ reports and is given with Wendy's full permission.

5. A Birthday Gift of Healing

I must tell you about a client I saw today. It was her birthday and her friend gave her a full massage voucher as a present. When she arrived I asked her to lay face down on the couch and started on her legs. When I got to her lower back, I noticed that her hips appeared to be rather out of alignment. I said that at the end of the massage, I would like to have her stand at the end of the bed so that I could measure her hips and see the extent of the misalignment.

Well, I could not believe it; they were out by about three inches. Her right hip was much higher than her left. I thought to myself - this would be a challenge. Anyway I put my hands on her hips and started to run energy. Within a few seconds her right hip started to move down, I could see my hand moving but I was hardly touching her. She commented that she could indeed feel something moving on her right side and then said that there was a slight pain running down
her thigh. I started to chase the pain and it went from the thigh to the knee and eventually to her foot. The pain subsided and I went to measure her hips again and yes, they had aligned. Both hips were perfectly even. Wow this was amazing. I have had people who had hips out by about an inch at the most but this was well out and just leveled up so easily. I then looked at her occipital ridge and that was out a little on the right again, so just ran the energy and again within a few seconds it popped and was back in line. The client was most impressed.

6. An Engineer’s First Experience Using Quantum-Touch

I just want to share the story of my first experience with Quantum Touch.

I got the Quantum Touch book last fall. I had only had the book a few days and had read only the first few chapters when a co-worker came by my work station. It was obvious she was in great pain, moving very slowly, very stiffly, very unlike this athletic young woman. My hands went crazy, tingling so much I actually sat on them to try to get them to stop as I talked with her. Finally I could stand it no more and asked if she was in as much pain as she appeared to be
and what had happened.

Two days prior she had had a horse back riding accident and had wrenched her back and right shoulder. Her right shoulder was causing her the most pain. Taking a deep breath, I told her about QT and asked if she would like me to try to help. Keep in mind that we are both engineers, and engineers just don't do these kinds of things as a general rule. But it turned out her brother is a practitioner in a similar modality as well as a chiropractor, so she was willing to
give it a go. I explained that I had never done this, and only had 5 minutes before I had a meeting.

So there, in front of my very open cubicle, I placed my hands on the spot she identified on her right shoulder and started running energy. After only a minute or so, she reported that her right arm was feeling "weird", relaxed. A minute or so after that, the muscles under my hands started twitching and a few seconds later we heard crunching noises from her shoulder. She almost immediately pulled away, saying that she was going to let that settle in and asking if I
"heard that". I said yes, I heard it but that she wasn't done. She repeated that she was going to let that settle in but that the pain was gone, and with that she scurried back down the hall. I should point out that when she came to my desk she walked over slowly and stiffly.

We did not speak of it for several weeks. Both of us, being engineers, were probably a bit embarrassed about it. But I saw her right before Thanksgiving and asked about her shoulder. Rubbing her left shoulder, she said that it was still bothering her, and that she was planning on having her brother work on it over Thanksgiving. I responded that we had worked on her right shoulder and her face blossomed into a look of amazement as she exclaimed, "Oh, that's right!
You know I forgot all about that - it was my right shoulder wasn't it!!"

I guess the pain had not come back! Since then, I have noticed the tingling hands whenever I see anyone who looks to be in pain. Most have been complete strangers in very public places so I have not yet developed the confidence or the courage to ask them if I can help - but I will get to that!

7. Carpet Installer Gets a Double Dose of Healing Energy

I had been working with an adolescent in my counseling practice and he was very interested in Quantum Touch to the point of borrowing a QT book and taking it home to read. After our next session he asked if I would work on his dad because his dad had constant pain in his right shoulder from years of carrying rolls of carpet.

His father stated that he was willing to do anything to alleviate the pain in his shoulder, and nothing he had tried in the past couple of years gave him any relief except heavy duty pain killers and he did not like the side effects from that medication. About 15 minutes after running energy into his shoulder the father reported that the pain had lessened over 50 percent, but now his left leg was hurting in the thigh area.

I continued to work on the shoulder and explained to him that I would move to the leg area soon. After another 15 minutes of running energy on the shoulder the pain in both areas stopped completely!!! The father said that he realized that after 20 years of carrying carpet on his right shoulder, his left leg had been compensating for all that weight. He said that he had always felt pain in his leg, but that it was minor compared to the pain in his shoulder, but now
both pains were relieved in about a half hour.

8. Distance Healing with Quantum-Touch

The more that I practice Quantum-Touch, the more I am in awe that there seems to be very little difference in effectiveness whether I am treating a client in person or at a distance. A couple of months ago, you posted my story of treating a woman in person who had such severe sciatica that she was in tears with the pain and could barely walk. When I saw her, I asked her what the intensity of the pain was from 0 to 10, she said, "a thousand!" After I ran energy for an hour into the sciatic nerve and following the pain, she announced that the pain had gone to less than one on the S.U.D. scale. By the next morning she was completely pain free.

Well, shortly after you published that story in the Q-T newsletter, she called me on the telephone and asked if I could do anything for her adult daughter, who was experiencing sciatica down her right leg. The mother was living with her daughter thousands of miles away from where I was at the time, so I asked her to get her daughter's permission for me to run energy to her, and also to find out at what number her daughter would rate the pain. A couple of minutes later, I got a call back from the mother, who said, "She says to please do it, and the pain is at an 8, and it really hurts down her whole leg when she moves or stands!"

"Let her know I'll begin running energy in five minutes," I said ( I find that telling a client when I am going to work on them is very useful as they become conscious co-participants in the process). I did "distant" healing for 30 minutes, focusing running energy into her daughter's right buttock and leg. Then I called back the mother to see how her daughter was. "My daughter said that right after you started running energy, she got very, very relaxed, almost like a deep state of meditation. She says that all the pain is gone, and there is only the slightest soreness at the point that hurt the most. It was amazing!" (By the next morning, the soreness had completely cleared up).

One other aspect of my application of Quantum-Touch that really works is something that Richard pointed to in a recent article about how his teacher worked. While I put my hands on that part of the body where the client says they have a problem, I never work on the problem. I see the person as whole and perfect and hold that frequency of love as their body aligns with it.

It is very clear to me that Quantum-Touch is perfectly named. The effects clearly take place at the level where the illusion of distance doesn't apply, all is interconnected, and healing can be instantaneous! Thank you for providing the gift of Quantum-Touch, so that we can contribute it to others!

9. Client’s Dog Feels Quantum-Touch Energy

About 15 minutes after I had started to run energy during a remote session into Linda, a client of mine, she interrupted my breathing. She told me, that something completely unusual has happened. Linda had rescued her dog, Bobbie, about a year ago from a bad place. Bobbie is suffering from a severe trauma, which occurred when she was very young. She had been left alone in dramatic moment. She carries still a lot of fears, which she had not been able to overcome. She is frantic and crazy and always in motion.

Bobbie lay quietly for some time beside Linda and seemed to be very comfortable. Linda said, she has never experienced this before and she asked if I had any explanation for that. I told her, that the dog is feeling the healing energy and that she would like to be part of it. I could feel that the dog had still fears of being left alone. I run softy energy into the dog’s heart for a few
minutes, which calmed her down even more. Since then, the dog seems to be calmer and more balanced, happier and much more loving. Linda loves to be around her, because her energy is now soft and gentle. What a big change and a wonderful healing in just a few minutes. I am so grateful for this experience.

10. Quantum-Touch and Endometriosis

I just wanted to share my story about endometriosis. I was introduced to Quantum Touch in October 2004, and started working on my endometriosis. I had noticed a 70% improvement, and the medication I was taking had dropped in 1/2. This was a great improvement, as I had considered having a hysterectomy done and really wasn't wanting to.

A 70% improvement was good but I wanted to be free of it. I took the Core Transformation course that Alain taught in Toronto, and I am pleased to say that 3 months later I am pain free. I am also amazed by the amount of emotional issues that are attached to our physical conditions. We create many of these issues ourselves and healing the physical body really is intertwined with our emotional and spiritual bodies. I have my life back, thanks to QT.

12. Never Underestimate the Power of Quantum-Touch

I frequently tell my students never to underestimate the power of Quantum-Touch and that the only limits it has is that which you give it. Well, I recently had a client present himself with a multiplicity of symptoms, but I kept 'feeling' his right ankle. After inquiring, he told me that nothing could be done with that ankle. He had fractured it 25 years earlier and never had any rehab, and it had fused into its current position. I'm always up for a challenge and was
curious as to what might happen.

Understanding the anatomy of the ankle, I combined the slope breath with amplified resonance and had a bit of a talk with this ankle. Surprise, surprise....the ankle regained some flexion and rotation to our amazement. Every cell knows the perfection in which it was made, and its function. Sometimes it just needs a little jump start for it to remember. With each successive session, he has increased the range of motion to his "fused" ankle.

13. Helping Geese with Quantum-Touch

I just want to share a very interesting experience I am having with a Canadian goose juvenile. On our property we have two ponds and this year a goose and his two females (that is right two, not just one) nested here. We ended up with four babies that survived. They are now juveniles, almost as big as their parents with permanent feathers and all. I thought they had gotten large enough that there wouldn't be any more predation on them, but I was wrong.

A few days ago I was watching the geese eat in our backyard. They have become so comfortable that they come right up to the back door. When one of the smaller juveniles came into view he had a horrible injury to his neck. All the feathers were gone and when he ate food was falling out of a hole in the front. I was so sad, because I figured this guy was a goner. I called an animal rescue league with no success and then remembered that I could do Quantum-Touch on him. So, later in the afternoon, when my schedule had cleared up (I work out of the house), I sat down and did about an hour session on him.

The next day he was in the field with the other geese and seemed to be somewhat better. I didn't get a close look, as they were far out in the field. The following day I didn't see any of the geese all day. I feared the worse. However, yesterday morning when I was just about to sit down to meditate I heard a honk. Now this was very unusual because the geese have not honked once since they've had their babies. After several honks I decided I was being paged. When I got there I saw only six geese and my heart sank. I went outside and followed the
geese. They waddled down to the pond and began swimming. I didn't see the other goose, but felt I needed to go back to the house, get dressed as I was still in my nightgown, and really look for the goose. I thought maybe he needed my help. I went and changed and grabbed my camera and started on a trek around the property. I went over to the other side of the ponds, because I had seen them swim toward that area a number of times. I didn't see the geese at all, so I gave up the search and began taking a few pictures.

I was on my way back when I caught movement in the water. I looked out and there were the geese, all seven of them! The goose that had been injured looked so much better. The damaged feathers were molting off and new ones were growing in all along the area that had been stripped. I was elated.

I think the goose came up to get me to follow him so I wouldn't worry about the other goose, and in a way to thank me for the energy. Whenever I get close to them I run energy so that they know I am a safe person to be around, and where the energy came from.

I am continuing to do energy work on the goose every day and hope to see him back in the field with a totally healed neck within a few days. I'll let you know. I love to work on animals, because they can't lie. If they feel better you know it is real.

Peace & joy,

"The corrupt morality of altruism"

What do we think of this, then? It seems a very logically argued piece to me. From Op-Ed from the Ayn Rand institute.

The Perversity of U.S. Backing for the Gaza Retreat - America’s support for the Gaza withdrawal is morally corrupt.
By Elan Journo

In a step fraught with danger, Israel is uprooting its citizens and withdrawing its military from Gaza and parts of the West Bank. That Palestinian terrorists are rejoicing over this momentous pullout is hardly shocking. That the United States is also applauding is contemptible. Worse still, America is demanding more concessions of land: Secretary of State Rice has insisted, “It cannot be Gaza only.”
Why is America urging Israel to make such perilous concessions? The rationale is that the withdrawal will open an unobstructed path for the “downtrodden” Palestinians toward a self-governed ethnic state. Such a state, Washington hopes, will alleviate their suffering and establish peaceful co-existence between Israel and the Palestinians.
But such a state will intensify the misery of the few genuinely freedom-seeking Palestinians by entrenching a tyrannical regime. The Palestinian Authority, a provisional governing body, has drained the lifeblood out of its citizens, trampled on their rights and, despite receiving billions in foreign aid, kept them in devastating poverty. Under the PA’s anarchic reign, rival “security forces” arbitrarily seize property, arrest and jail people without charge, and summarily execute dissidents.
The actual victors of the withdrawal are terrorists and their vast legions of reverent supporters in the Palestinian population. The motto emblazoned on banners throughout Gaza expresses their belief, borne out in practice, that violence works: “Gaza Today. The West Bank and Jerusalem Tomorrow.” The withdrawal has strengthened their resolve, not to achieve peace, but to destroy Israel. “We’re going to keep our weapons,” one terrorist told reporters, “because the battle with the enemy is a long one.” A cleric allied to Hamas, which has carried out umpteen suicide bombings in Israel, observed that “when we offer up our children [as ‘martyrs’], it is much better than choosing the road of humiliation and negotiations.”
As some have observed, with a populace and leadership so hospitable to terrorists, in time the Palestinian territories may succeed Taliban-ruled Afghanistan as a training ground for jihadists, lusting to murder not only in the streets of Jerusalem and Baghdad, but also London and New York.
Israel’s retreat from Gaza--rightly celebrated by terrorists--is neither a means of fostering peace, nor a solution for the plight of innocent Palestinians. Why, then, does America support it?
Because Washington holds that Israel has no moral right to assert its interests, but the Palestinians do. Their quest for statehood enjoys Washington’s wholehearted support, encouragement and financing as an incontestable entitlement--even if they tyrannize themselves and terrorize Israel. But if Israel pursues its interests, by contrast, Washington considers that a moral transgression. Israel could, and for a time did, easily protect the lives and property of all individuals within its borders and the contested territories, by smashing aggressors and imposing its rule of law on Palestinians (which innocent Palestinians welcomed). But Washington refuses on principle to endorse such assertions of Israeli interests.
Why this double standard? Our leaders believe in altruism: the view that one’s highest moral duty is to selflessly serve the needy--and thus that the world’s “haves” must sacrifice for the sake of its “have-nots.” The productive, on this abhorrent view, have no moral right to pursue their own interests; their only justification for existing is to serve the needy. Because Israel is strong and prosperous, it is thereby forbidden from imposing its will on the destitute Palestinians--even though it is the innocent victim of Palestinian aggression. Because the Palestinians are weak and poor, they may demand anything they wish--including a state with which to terrorize Israel.
It might seem that President Bush is being hypocritical: forbidding an ally, Israel, from fighting terrorism effectively even as U.S. forces wage a “war on terror.” But observe that in fact he is being devastatingly consistent. For Bush, Iraqis are entitled to the sanctity of their Mosques--but our troops are forbidden from rooting out insurgents hiding and sniping from within; Iraqis are entitled to textbooks, hospitals, sewers, roads--but, in defending themselves, our troops must place the lives of Iraqi civilians (some of whom are or aid insurgents) above their own. Attesting to the cost of this sacrificial policy is the burgeoning U.S. death toll.
And Washington has refused to impose on Iraq a constitution that would make the new regime non-threatening--as we did in Japan after World War II. In the name of satisfying the poor Iraqis’ demand for “self-determination,” President Bush has pledged to recognize as sovereign whatever regime the Iraqis vote for--even a militantly hostile Islamic theocracy that, in unison with Iran’s mullahs, clamors for “Death to America.”
Neither Israel nor the United States can vanquish Islamist terrorism unless it repudiates the corrupt morality of altruism, which enjoins the sacrifice of the successful as an ideal. Victory can only be achieved if one is convinced of one’s moral right to live and to act consistently to achieve one’s goals. Every self-effacing step that Israel takes--in lockstep with America and with our blessing--encourages the terrorists with the belief that their success is achievable.

More about love

I recommend the article on love among the penguins (NY Times 26 Aug 2005) from which I took this extract. Professor Bernd Heidrich is talking:

"... Functionally, I suspect love is an often temporary chemical imbalance of the brain induced by sensory stimuli that causes us to maintain focus on something that carries an adaptive agenda. Love is an adaptive feeling or emotion - like hate, jealousy, hunger, thirst - necessary where rationality alone would not suffice to carry the day. Could rationality alone induce a penguin to trek 70 miles over the ice in order to mate and then balance an egg on his toes while fasting for four months in total darkness and enduring temperatures of minus-80 degrees Fahrenheit and gusts of up to 100 miles an hour? And bear in mind that this 5-year-old penguin has just returned to the place of its birth from the sea, and thus has never seen an egg in its life and could not possibly have any idea what it is or why it must be kept warm. Any rational penguin would eventually say, "To hell with this thing, I'm going back for a swim and to eat my fill of fish."..."

Evangelist tells 7m TV viewers: US should kill Venezuela's president

Julian Borger in Washington and Duncan Campbell
Wednesday August 24, 2005
The Guardian

America's leading televangelist appeared to take Christian fundamentalism into uncharted territory yesterday when he called for the assassination of Venezuela's president, Hugo Chávez.

Speaking on his own channel, the Christian Broadcasting Network, Pat Robertson said President Chávez should be targeted because he was a "terrific danger" whose country, a big supplier of oil to the US, was "a launching pad for communist infiltration and Islamic extremism all over the country".

Furthermore, killing the Venezuelan leader would be "a whole lot cheaper than starting a war ... We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability."

The Venezuelan government expressed outrage and said it was examining its legal options. Vice-president José Vicente Rangel said: "It's huge hypocrisy to maintain this discourse against terrorism and at the same time, in the heart of that country, there are entirely terrorist statements like those."

A state department spokesman, Sean McCormack, said: "Allegations that the US would take hostile action against the Venezuelan government are completely baseless and without fact."

The secretary of defence, Donald Rumsfeld, said: "Our department doesn't do that kind of thing. It's against the law."

President Chávez, who was visiting Fidel Castro in Cuba yesterday, claimed earlier this year the US was plotting to kill him and yesterday's assassination call, coming from an ardent supporter of the Bush administration with a television audience of 7 million, was unlikely to reassure him.

"As everybody knows, the Christian right is the muscle behind the Republican party and the current Bush administration," Alfredo Toro Hardy, the Venezuelan ambassador to the UK, told the Guardian.

"Televangelist Pat Robertson is, in turn, the undoubted patriarch of the Christian right. The fact that Pat Robertson is openly calling for the assassination of President Chávez, invoking ... the supposed rights of the US over its Latin American backyard, is extremely serious and worrisome."

In his remarks, Mr Robertson called Mr Chávez a "dangerous enemy to our south, controlling a huge pool of oil, that could hurt us very badly".

He added: "This is in our sphere of influence, so we can't let this happen. We don't need another $200bn war to get rid of one strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with."

His spokeswoman said he was not available for interview and would not elaborate.

Mr Robertson's remarks will embarrass the Bush administration, which has insisted that Mr Chávez's fears of a US assassination plot are groundless.

The White House denied Venezuelan claims it was behind an abortive coup attempt in 2002, although CIA documents suggested US officials had some prior knowledge.

Mr Chávez, a former army colonel who was first elected as president in 1999, has long been a thorn in the Bush administration's side, mainly due to his support for Castro. He pledged to send Venezuelan troops to defend Cuba if the US ever invaded.

He has also criticised the US decision to go to war with Iraq and has branded the US a "terrorist state". This week he accused the US of being the main destabilising force in Latin America and said: "The grand destroyer of the world and the greatest threat ... is represented by US imperialism."

In February, in a broadcast to the nation, Mr Chávez accused Mr Bush of plotting to assassinate him. "If I am assassinated, there is only one person responsible: the president of the United States."

Mr Robertson, 75, founder of the Christian Coalition and a former Republican presidential candidate, has become increasingly idiosyncratic with advancing age.

Two years ago, he joked about getting rid of the state department's Washington headquarters, long suspected by the right to be a den of liberals, saying: "Maybe we need a very small nuke thrown off on Foggy Bottom to shake things up."

Last year, he declared liberal judges were a worse long-term threat than al-Qaida, arguing: "I think the gradual erosion of the consensus that's held our country together is probably more serious than a few bearded terrorists who fly into buildings."

He also believes that feminism encourages women to "kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians".

The chairman of America's National Council of Churches, Bob Edgar, said Mr Robertson's declaration was "appalling to the point of disbelief.

"It defies logic that this so-called evangelist is using his media power not to win people to faith but to encourage them to support the murder of a foreign leader."

Smile please!

On my way into the town yesterday a couple of high school girls crossed my path. One of them turned towards me and gave me a most beautiful smile. This quite often happens in this country. It’s a place where a young girl may safely and happily smile at an old man, for no reason at all other than joie de vivre.

I’m nobody’s heart-throb, I think.. But that smile gave me a warm feeling all the way into the town and back. I don’t smile a lot. I don’t smile enough. I find it difficult to generate a smile when ever it seems to be called for, yet it would be very helpful both to me and to others if I was more liberal with smiles. Keeping a straight face is something a part of me values, while another part of me doesn’t want that. I shall have to work on this.

Anyone who hopes that the problems of Iraq can soon be solved by political, military or any other means, had better have a quick read of this informative article:
