Module 1

I just finished the first, introductory video and am feeling good about choosing this course.  I can affirm that when I gave massages, during my training as well as over the years to friends and family, I would end sessions feeling both serene and invigorated, as well.  My daughter, a chiropractor, and I have frequently discussed the power of healing energy between provider and client.  This energy transfer is something that was not discussed at any length during our initial training, but which we’ve both regularly experienced. 

I’m excited to practice and discuss this with my daughter who is coming for a short visit this week!

Module 2

Hello Shama,

I’m finally getting going with the course.  My daughter and grandson were here for a visit, followed by my son when he finished his semester.  Now, I have my house back 

I have been practicing on my husband, but am trying to anticipate positioning in nursing homes where I’d like to volunteer. (and possibly get paid!).  I may not have as much control as I’d like regarding positioning so I may have to adapt to a person in a sitting position or in a bed…which, hopefully can be lowered enough for proper body position!  I may be overthinking it presently, but am going to focus on using my whole body (rocking back and forth) rather than just using my arms.

I like the suggestions for opening up the chest for improved breathing and, of course, trying to tune in to the individual’s breathing pattern.  My favorite is the tapping with either fingertips or fist…I think that it may be good for stimulation when appropriate.

Well, on to the next module!
