Donna and David, 1984

Donna and David have been actively working on their relationship book, The Energies of Love, for the past three years. Actually, they've been working on it during all 36 years they have been with one another, figuring it out from the trenches. The book draws on both Energy Medicine and Energy Psychology in presenting a program to help couples thrive.

The last two chapters focus on the themes of "conscious partnering" and "your relationship is a shared spiritual journey." If all goes well, The Energies of Love will have its official release at IGEEM 2014. They have just completed the first draft and are sending it to the publisher this weekend.

In celebration of that milestone, we wanted to share with you one of the cases from the book. It shows how Energy Psychology was successfully applied when a man became insanely jealous about his wife's first husband:

Jeremy was 36 when he married Melissa. He was eager to help raise her 7- and 9-year-old sons. He had gotten to know them quite well during the year prior to the marriage, brought them to baseball games, zoos, parks, and other local attractions, and he had participated in their hobbies. The boys liked their stepdad and the attention he was giving them, and the new family was blossoming within an atmosphere of affection and promise.

Donna was peacefully working on our Energies of Love book last October when she received an urgent message: "Turn on Dr. Oz right now!" She did, and wow! A vibrant young woman was being featured who happens to be the Director of Neurology for Wellspring Health at Scripps Memorial Hospital. But what she was doing on The Dr. Oz Show was demonstrating how she works with the chakra system when treating her patients! That was a lot to take in.

One of the great things about being the ones who select the keynote speakers for IGEEM is that we (Donna and David) are always on the lookout for GREAT talents who are not well-known to our community. Dr. Kulreet Chaudhary is going to be a gem. When we finally reached her by phone, David listened as Donna and Dr. Chaudhary talked and laughed ... and talked and laughed ... and talked and laughed. It was a thrilling first meeting.

Wikipedia's censorship of energy healing techniques and other health care practices that step outside the box of conventional thinking was featured in last month's Energy e-Letter. A big thanks to the many of you who signed the petition urging Wikipedia to rethink their guidelines. The numbers spiked right after our e-Letter came out.

Along with ACEP, which spearheaded the drive, and our other sister organizations, more than 6,400 people have signed and more than 2,000 comments have been left by people telling exactly why they signed. This is fabulous! The petition is still open, and we'd love to top 10,000. Together we intend to have an impact! So if you haven't joined in yet, please click here to sign the petition. 

Meanwhile, we've been wondering how long it would be before the BBC carried a feature on energy healing. Well, good news there as well. A professor at Staffordshire University, Tony Stuart, was just interviewed on BBC about his success in bringing EFT into the British National Health Service. You can listen to the wonderful British accents and watch the video here.
