MI's Healing Seminar. YAY!

[MindlessInvalid]

Alright, I may not be as talented as Amaya, or as knowledgeable as Daimon, but i know my healing well enough to give a few pointers on psionic healing.

First things first, psionic healing is a supplement not a cure, it should not be used as a substitute for medical care from a qualified physician.

Secondly, a visualization technique will not do the job well enough for some of the more complicated procedures, so make yourselves familiar with biofeedback (manipulating psi using feeling or the just do it method).

Third an most important (From a practical standpoint) learn to scan quickly and effectively. as you will need to be able to in order to diagnose blockages and other maladies properly.

Now that all of the obvious stuff is out of the way. Let's get onto the fun info. Psionic healing begins with knowing what is wrong to the point that you know how things should be if things were not wrong. Then you A) in the case of psionic damages fix the problem or B) in the case of physical maladies reallocate resources and help along the more important functions.

an example of this is the basic blockage due to (minor) physical lacerations. The proper order of things would be disinfect, stem the bleeding, remove psi from affected area, stimulate cellular regrowth through DMILS to quicken healing time (just by a little bit).

Healing is not a matter of pumping energy into a system with white light in your head, all that does is give your patient energy constipation. What you want to do is figure out what is actually wrong, then devise a clever way to fix it after all that can be physically done has been done.

Remember that just because you read and understand a technique, doesn't mean that it's the right technique for the job or that the technique is safe (I'm looking at you, people who think they can get away with overlays without training for at least 3 years in psionics and not spending at least half a year on overlays alone). When in doubt, don't act, you may just screw things up.
Now go and practice before being a total jackass and trying to heal someone with out learning the basics because honestly, no one wants an untrained idiot poking them with a scalpel. That is exactly what you're doing and don't try to hide it. (I'm looking at you, psi seeker)

[WingedPower]

So, if I go and try, is it a scalpel or an axe? ;)

seriously, practice does make perfect... Or at least, more practiced. But... We use cadavers in the medical fields... Last time I checked, not that I go around checking, but corpses don't have much in the way of energy pathway repair.

Though I suppose pouring replicating constructs in might be likened to the old pouring molten lead into a wound in the old days... Or perhaps a more apt example would be the application of leeches or maggots. Actually, the maggot and leech is better. Actually still employed these days... And less screaming than the molten lead bit.

YAY, indeed. (energy constipation, lol)

Thank you for beginning a course. You mention energy blockages and physical healing. I would also be interested in emotional healing, if that is up your alley.

As to practicing, I would love to. Any guinea pigs? I find me to be a most difficult patient.

[WingedPower]

There's nothing wrong with the plumber's snake method of healing. Ie, pumping energy into one's energy system to flush/push out blockages. :) In many cases, that's all one really needs, just as that's all most people's backed up sinks/etc. really need.

Then, you have people with rusted pipes... or roots... or a busted water main... then the question becomes... HOW do you fix that?

Personally, when an energy pump/flush doesn't resolve the issue, ie... there's pain involved, that's when you start doing finer and finer sweeping scans. The intent of the scan should be to locate and encapsulate the affected region and foreign bits. Once tagged, the question becomes... how to remove or otherwise fix?

I'm paranoid, so I use constructs of a disposable nature. :) More to the point, I use the same viral replicating constructs I use in er... "sparring" to surgically remove the tagged masses and when links are discovered, I don't hesitate to send a few swarms off to discuss the matter with the point of origin.

I find that in 100% of the cases when I have an abnormal sensation, this will resolve it.

Repairing the affected region is a matter of forming a tiny/micro mesh/grid construct programmed to mend and reinforce the energy pattern of the region. Basically, feel for what has been gutted and ripped out, and or lack of a better word, "flow" energy at a point before the damage and let the good energy pattern in your body, guide you in how to form and shape the energy to rebuild. You essentially flow/heal from point to point until you are done mending the damage.

Once the major components are fixed/reflowed, I leave a few of my own constructs to finish the job for the minor bits.

Like with any injury/illness, prevention is much easier than cure. :/ Scan and shield!

Note, if/when your energy generation capability is impaired, this is significantly harder to do. At which point, you need someone else to help. Or, you could create backup reserves of your energy and backup patterns to speed the recovery, when you yourself are not able to do the work. ... Kind of like a blood bank... but for psionic energy.

Anyways, there are plenty of ways to conduct healing.

thais, for guinea pigs, I suggest that you use your patients, With the removal technique, you can soothe pain fairly easily. As for learning to scan, same deal, try to psionically diagnose a patient before a physical diagnostic. keep a log of your successes and failures. when you get diagnosis down, try to attempt to psionically treat your patient in addition to the physical treatment. The projected healing time is reduced considerably when you do it right.

[thais]

I can do that.

I diagnose correctly on a regular basis, but it will be fun to try on patients that are atypical in their clinical presentation. (soothing pain, however, may delay a correct diagnosis by the docs)

I am curious why you would want to remove psi from a shallow laceration. This seems counterintuitive. Are you suggesting that the psi around a wound is no longer organized? Can we use the terms energy and psi interchangeably?

I'll admit that I don't think I look at/sense psi at all when healing so this is a new concept to me. (I will practice assessing psi) When the flesh or bone or circulation is interrupted, the healing process is usually very organized. Isn't that the patient's psi energy at work?

[MindlessInvalid]

pain is nervous system activity, and it causes psi build up. The psi forms a blockage kinda like clotting, but not in a good way.

[thais]

Pain is also a diagnostic indicator of physical blockages, such as appendicitis... or heart attack, pulmonary embolism, kidney stone, name any body part-itis...
If I go about soothing patients with physical blockages, acute problems may be missed and they won't get appropriate physical treatment. Query: I don't know if it is even possible to remove pain, when there is a physical blockage. I would be trying to say, relax the ureters so the stone could pass and then look and see if the energy is still messed up. Am I looking at it bass-ackwards?

[MindlessInvalid]

you soothe the pain after the treatment, to aid in recovery, not post hoc and screw up the diagnosis. Taking your example of a kidney stone situation, that is more than possible if you know the exact functions behind it. If you can induce the first cause of a chain of events reliant upon that first cause, it would probably work very easily. Just two months back I was killing off staph bacteria in my toe until my antibiotics course could be filled at a pharmacy. The way you do it is to get the pattern of the natural endocrine chemical responsible for muscle relaxation under stress, then encourage the gland responsible to send it to the ureters so the stone can pass. You weren't looking at it "bassackwards" I just wasn't clear in my description of what needs to be done. Both systems of body, the physical and energy bodies, are dependent on each other. So healing one encourages the other to get its rear in gear and heal up too. So you treat the physical with physical means, then you treat the energy with energetic means, then the physical with energetic means.

whoa there, learn to walk before learning how to lift superheavy items

if you want to be an emotional healer, you're going to be targeted by every psion and non that has had a bad day... trust me on this, it is not worth the effort and 99% of the time, the person is just going to use you as an emotional dumpster rather than learning how to actually deal with their emotions. being the "shoulder to cry on" only goes so far before it develops into an exercise in sado-masochism.

i don't want to sound insensitive, but emotions are capricious things indeed and best tamed by the person holding them... not you.

[thais]

I understand what you are saying and I agree. I am not talking about emotional people, per se, but psych disorders... and I am more than happy to practice practice practice basics and get a handle on them before attempting anything complicated.

My question mainly is... is MI able to teach this comfortably, starting with the basics and taking baby steps? Perhaps it a moot question as psych disorder healing should only be taken on by advanced practitioners.

Eager to learn, and mostly ignorant still, but not a fool.

[MindlessInvalid]

empathy is still something i am getting to grips with, I have to hold in my aura or I feel everyone's emotions. All i can think of is putting a ward inside someone's head with the negative signature of their triggers and their major emotional problem. This would encourage the brain to think more normally.

I actually started a thread on this (http://psionguild.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3645) a while back since it's a major interest of mine. I don't think anyone gave step by step instructions or anything, but it was an interesting conversation... If you have ideas and/or experience with this, I'd love to talk more.

And thank you for the description, Mindless! I have a ways to go before I'd try it on anyone though :-\

[thais]

Thank you, ShadowRain. I did read through that thread earlier and it bears a re-read. I am content to deal with psi and/or physical healing on this thread, whatever MI has in mind.

We can discuss psych stuff on the other thread. And no, I don't try things I am not competent in and usually need pushing to try new stuff. I am more of a theory/understand it completely person.

aah, okay. misunderstood you there... if it's a chemical imbalance or something like that, i can see how something like this might help. the brain is... interesting to say the least.

i would gather that maybe a construct or overlay might work? dunno... i'll admit that i'm a n00b to psi (though i've been the emotional dumpster for way too long with some people i know. ;) )

[thais]

I feel you. My empathy would make this sort of work very difficult. Indeed, I have trouble with my patients and friends/family overwhelming me at times.

But it is still an area of interest. My dad is a psychologist and I have learned much from him. I wondered for a long time how he could stay in that career without losing his marbles, but I guessed he isn't cursed with empathy.

[Phoenix]

MI what would you recommend for something else tragic but just as important. Something broken that can be fixed, it just need something more and TLC. <<<heart>>>
hehe!

[MindlessInvalid]

for any empathic situation where a certain emotion or compulsion is to be prevented, i suggest a ward over the body that has the negative of the frequency of what you want ot get rid of. (redundant, i know.)

[thais]

Ward=?
Negative frequency? I dun get it.

[MindlessInvalid]

a ward is the broadcasting of a frequency that is negative to the one you want to protect against. So if you get the pattern for sadness or any other emotion you can broadcast the negative to reduce the impact of the positive. The closer the match and the stronger the broadcast the more effective it will be.

001101010111 is canceled by
110010101000 in equal or greater force.

Also wards can broadcast none protecting things, like booby-traps or scanning constructs or something.

[thais]

So wards=broadcasting?

And for emotional wards, fight incoming depression with euphoria;
anxiety with calm;
anger with what ever is the opposite of anger: agree-ability, peace, joy, contentment; frustration with equanimity?

[MindlessInvalid]

Bad shining *rolls up a newspaper* no infecting the term ward with unrelated verbal baggage!! *swats shiningwolf*
A ward is exactly what I said it is, other people may have different definitions but it all boils down to the particular denotation I chose when I used the term in the first place.

Thais: You're reading to far into the negative of the frequency thing...
the easiest way to change a frequency for me is *shudder* Visualization *shudder* because I don't have the experience with signatures and frequencies to conceptualize how to deal with those yet.
The ward process starts by scanning and progresses like this:

focus on and object or person that has the trait you want to protect against,
focus on the trait as it appears in your target,
then focus on just the trait itself... (those three step get you the signature, you find the signature of the person who has what you want, then on how they manifest what you want, then on what you want. There should a be a very palpable feeling right about now too)

Take that feeling and hold it in your mind, and visualize a heart monitor/ ocsillioscope monitor/ anything with hills and valleys.
What appears on that monitor is your sub-cs representation of the frequency you are holding in your head.

Now wherever the frequency is up make it go down, where ever it's down make it go up, until you have a frequency that is the mirror opposite of what you had. Now put that feeling in a construct that sends out waves of energy with that share that feeling.

[Shiningwolf]

*Rubs head* Ow. I'm just saying they can be used for a few things besides just canceling out frequencies as you put it >:(

Maybe i need to catch up my psionics terms.... >.>

[MindlessInvalid]

they aren't wards if you do them like that

[Amaya]

just in case no one's said it, mindless doesn't actually work for the guild in an official capacity, and the guild did not back this seminar.

[NoMad]

Perhaps a guild rep could possibly administer a test to MI, i myself have worked with him a bit, and he seems to have the fundamentals down enough to receive some advanced teaching, honestly i think he could ultimately be a great addition to your healing department Amaya.

[MindlessInvalid]

I'm not 18 yet, so I can't be staff, and I think I mentioned that this wasn't guild sanctioned up at the first post, if not, then it slipped my mind. I'm not trying to make anything sound guild sanctioned in the first place, In all honesty I am trying to avoid misrepresentation as much as possible. Please don't confuse my lack of care to be misrepresentation.

[WingedPower]

*wry grin* Please apply the same "not guild santioned" label to all of my posts, as I do not represent the guild either. Free agent status. :)

[TheUncom]

Amen, MI. This is the most common sense I've heard on this board since I got here.

[NoMad]

Might I add that there will be an upcoming Junior Staff Department? MI maybe you should look into that in the next month or so.

[jammer854]

I have a question is it possible to "cure" or help ADD or ADHD?
