This summer has been hot with lots of sun. My routine has changed in accordance with the season, for multiple reasons. My teacher husband is home, and my high school son (part of the time). I have a garden that calls out for early morning care. I have returned to working in the clay studio. And I am taking a drug that enables me to take on activities that were previously untenable due to Parkinson’s.
So my prayer, meditation and Qi Gong have slipped by the wayside being replaced by shifting daily activities. Only occasionally do I fit them in. As far as “energy work” I have continued in practicing Reiki. I used my studio table to do Reiki eight times with four different people. I also participated twice in an “energy share” with other Reiki and energy workers. During a share you practice on another person and they in turn practice on you, sharing experience and knowledge with each other. In the last share, Larry was my partner. He uses crystals and other stones in his work. Very interesting.
I had a suspicion I might drop away from some of my healing exercises when I started taking a drug. Instead I am doing things I love. Could that be healing, too? My husband and I took our bikes on the ferry to Block Island and stayed for a few nights - riding, hiking, and swimming. We hadn’t planned this trip. It became possible though with the Mirapex.
If I continued my routine would I have seen improvement? Would I have healed, become symptom-free if I’d only stuck with it longer? I still intend to change. I have begun a serious examination of my inner workings and my relationship with God that is not ended. There may well come a time when the drug is no longer necessary.
