Touch of Tao

Well in all my years of tossing coins to consult the I-Ching I've never had this before. Strange mornings are fun!

Very interesting book I've been listening to on Audible, by Eric Wargo. One working concept I find fascinating: "The unconscious (aka subconscious) mind may be consciousness displaced in or that spans across Time." This relates to our current language being a linear format, and also accessing past and future information, including 'other life' details. I have a feeling our understanding of Time is going to change dramatically over the next few years.
PS: Is there a past or future version of you that has already experienced healing of some kind you're wishing for now?

With all the crazy in the world right now, THIS is what we've trained for in Tai Chi and QiGong. How to be surrounded in stress, chaos, noise, and GROUND.

We are the healers. We are in it, but not of it. We meditate and allow our nervous systems to regulate into the frequency of Harmonic Coherence.

Only then can we SEE with the eyes of our Heart, hear from the silence in Truth, and act from the Will, the Zhi, of our Spirit to serve others as we came here to do.

THIS is power. To have a clear HeartMind with a knowingness and faith in Life that all is ok. Exactly what needs to happen is happening. Something old is dying and something new is being birthed.

PEACE 🙏

"Delivering packets of energetic signals like small amounts of current through the skin for healing is a very old practice and once considered woo-woo, pseudoscience, or [insert other dismissive language]...
Yet from a first-principles perspective, any complete understanding of health must account for how energetic signals, historically framed as Qi and now measurable as bioelectricity, move through living systems." ~ Nirosha J. Murugan

This study specifically refers to electro-acupuncture (EA), which uses electrical pulses attached to the needles and applied to specific acupoints.

OF INTEREST is that Qi Emission (QiGong Energy Healing) by trained practitioners is thought to have a similar effect due to the way Qi affects the BioField.
Preliminary research suggests overlaps in mechanisms, such as modulating cellular processes through low-level energy fields that could theoretically activate similar pathways to EA's Sympathetic Nervous System stimulation.

This is probably my favorite technique to shift intense negative emotions, no matter how bad they are.

In taking people through the Breath Of Wonder, one of the most impacting things I hear is little stories of the most wonderous sights and experiences people have had in their lives. I mean, WOW, people are so amazing!

Hearing these leaves me incredibly inspired and in awe of what touches people in this life.

So, I ask you - if you care to share briefly - What is one of the most beautiful, tremendously heart-touching things you have ever seen or experienced?

This is probably my favorite technique for shifting energy out of an intense emotional state, no matter how bad it seems. The method I use evolved from an excellent book I read, published in 2017, called “Energy Healing and the Art of Awakening Through Wonder” by Alain and Jody Herriott, which I...

WALK FOR PEACE. I love this energy and the gentle reminder touching the hearts of so many people, growing along the way. Their message is simple and powerful:
🌎There are no sides, only us.
🌍Forgive everyone, just get over your emotions and forgive.
🌎Then forgive yourself.
🌎The only way to have Peace in the world is to first have Peace within yourself.
🌎Say right now "Today is my day of living in Kindness."

When the Buddhist Monks take action like this, it is time to help bring the world back into balance. Become more aware, remember our humanity,

Starts This Sunday 1/11. Our environment affects us physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Does your space charge you and lift you up, or drain you and bring you down?

What if you did energy healing to your space (home, treatment room, business) and aligned yourself with it in a way to enhance each other?

We'll be working with the Spirit of the Space as a palpable way to be more IN the life we know we want and deserve.

I'm sharing a very fun practice I started last year - enjoy if you want a mind-bending experiment!

I’m sharing one of my favorite practices I started in early 2025, which plays with a concept in Quantum Mechanics called Retrocausality – very simply, using the future to change the past. I’ve long been fascinated with non-linear time, time loops, and related theories that can make your brain ...

I made myself a special Elixir for my recent birthday. The intention was to honor myself and the beautiful gift of life I received.

I love to feeze my elixirs and see what kind of messages they contain, via style.

On pic #2 right side in the middle, if you enlarge it there a perfect letter 'A'. This is so interesting! I kept looking at it and all of a sudden I saw my name, Cynthia. Pic #3

Can you see it? I'd love to know what else you see.

I tinctured the Elixir so I can enjoy it over the next 30 days.

Larimar, Apophyllite, Azurite, Celestite, and one Garnet for my birthstone.
