Nasty but valuable experience

[oath]

A friend of mine was recently very sick with something. After about 2 days I stepped in and attempted to heal. I first did the feeling, checking to see what the problem was so that I could have more emotion/passion involved (this greatly helps in most things for those of you that are inexperienced). I saw that there was something wrong with the jaw and a horribly upset stomach. I went about going on my intuition, trying to take the problem upon myself and channeling the energy around into, trying to stimulate and heal. After a short while, My intuition started to tell me that I should stop now. I heeded, but the more I thought about her, the more I felt need to keep going, so I did. I went to sleep afterwards, waking after only two hours to extreme digestive problems, the energy and heat coarsing through me was one of the most intense things I have yet encountered. Its important to not overdo ourselves. I was channeling energy in a serious way when I had previously been out of the practice for quite some time. I couldnt handle so much all at once and pushed myself too far. This however was worth the experience to me, though I cant say I'll do it again

Do you think that maybe doing some sort of self-protection would have kept the temporary negative energy, well- temporary?

I dont really know. But I dont see why not.

What I do know is that I went into that situation, full well knowing that I probably shouldnt be trying to channel that much energy or take any sickness upon myself as I wasnt in very good shape myself at that particular time. But, like I said, The experience was worth it. And even if I had to experience that pain as well so that the subject might get just a little bit better :wink:

The key words here are "trying to take the problem upon myself". No wonder you were sick. One has to be very careful to sheild and protect and have this personal "condom" (if you will) to protect yourself. I learned this the hard way also. It was awful but I learned to first cleanse my home and work area before a client/friend in need arrived. The I super charged it with good energy and placed a "veil type sheild" around it and me. Think harem lady and dont' smile! I sometimes get funny in the tummy when I work someone with cancer, or a serious illness, but I just stop, refocus, pul my condom a bit tighter (don't smile) and go on. I'm sure you learned the same thing....protection first..healing/helping second.
