Greetings!  

Donna and David teaching at Omega Institute earlier this month

Two-thirds of the people in the packed ballroom of the Albany Marriott had never before laid their eyes on us. New Yorkers tend to be a tough crowd to win over. But the standing ovation three hours later was enthusiastic, and we heard comments like, "I learned more about relationships tonight than I learned in my last marriage." 

The Albany Energies of Love evening was a sweet ending, with a great deal of personal sharing, after three wonderful classes at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY: another fun Belly Dance and the Five Elements weekend with Tanya and Dondi, a powerful 5-day Energy Psychology class with David, and finally an Energy Medicine weekend with all of us participating, including fabulous support from our EEM TAs. We are eternally grateful that we have the privilege to teach material we love.

Having numerous times seen Energy Medicine revive people from what appeared to be their final breaths, this month's case history is familiar yet still remarkable. Speaking of final breaths, the final years of life are meant to be a time of wisdom, not breakdown, and of taking one's place as an honored elder. The key is to keep your energies in a vital balance and flow throughout your body. Donna will be bringing everything she knows about "Aging Joyfully" next January to show you how. It will be her first presentation on a topic that is important for all of us who are drawn toward looking in the mirror (more below). Following that story, watch a one-minute video showing you a technique for keeping your chakra energies connected and vibrant.

Love and blessings!
Donna and David

ENERGY FIRST AID FOR ELDERLY NONRESPONSIVE LOVED ONE WHILE WAITING FOR THE PARAMEDICS  

by Gail Jett

 

My father has Parkinson's and lives across the street from me. Yesterday, his evening caregiver arrived, and he was nonresponsive. She was scared. She said he was breathing but absolutely nonresponsive. I'm a nurse and was there immediately. She was right. No response whatsoever, nor to noxious stimuli (sternal rub). I called 911. After calling, I did a vigorous "three thumps" on him. Then I took his arms and legs and moved him into a Cross Crawl pattern (seated). I could feel him start to come around.

 

Just as the paramedics got there, his eyes flew open, and he yelled, "Fire truck!" He was completely fine after that. He says he could hear all of us but couldn't move. I suspect he had a TIA, or mini-stroke. In addition to Parkinson's, he also has atrial fib. The paramedics were surprised to see him alert and asked if I had done anything. I told them I had done some Chinese medicine/Energy Medicine techniques. They looked bemused. Not sure what they thought -- you know how that goes -- but anyway, Dad came around. So, another success story.
