Guest guest Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Good point, Lori. I am pretty sure I have heard Doc say something about energies running backwards. I don't remember the context. I'll bet it WAS related to meridians running backwards rather than homolateral, although homolateral could have been present as well.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Lori and Mary,We were testing spleen during one of our energy medicine study groups. I held a weight (arm straight - holding a 10 lb weight).Held the weight -- strong. Then I put a packet of Sweet & Low right on my spleen -- and I felt my energy actual reverse up my arm, like a wave!

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hey Lillie - How about doing the homolateral drill BEFORE you get out of bed in the morning? Works pretty well. Do this entire series while lying in bed, flat on back. While breathing deeply: SLOWLY touch left elbow to left knee. (breathe in) Touch right elbow to right knee. (breathe out) Repeat this same side pattern 12 times. Lie still - deep breath in and out. Begin cross crawl pattern: Breathe in. Slowly touch right elbow to left knee - move your head to the left, as well. Breathe out as you Touch left elbow to right knee -- move your head to the right as well. Repeat this pattern 12 times. Repeat this sequence two more times -- but finish with 20 Cross Crawls. Circle 8 pattern with your eyes a few times. _______________________ Next drill -- three thumps. (while laying in bed) Sit up on side on bed - do a quick but intentional " blow out " Hook-up Zip up. Fit in a happy dance somewhere (I know -- this is more a fire thing than a wood thing -- but a 'happy' dance or warrior dance will flow wood into fire ) Then go out and have a groovy day. See how that works Helen > How do > I know?

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Hi Helen, Thanks ...that sounds like a great drill and especially if you are so down you can't get out of bed. That's not usually my case, I've never had a problem making myself get up early. It's usually, I wake up and start stressing that I'm wasting time laying there because I have a lot to do... However... I already do all the drills because I know how to fix being homolateral... My original question is why should I wake up homolateral in the first place. When I go to bed, my intention is to finally be done with things for the day, turn off and know that everything will be much better in the morning. Sleep is usually an escape mechanism for me. (Which I guess answers the question of what's going on in dreamland) But...I want to go to bed and have everything reset to fresh start. I don't want to wake up and still have the hangers on from the day and night before. That's why I was thinking of ways to eliminate the homolateral altogether. Today was day 2 of the 21 day routine of massaging the central lymphatics and I am excited to think that will permanently reset the night time energy drain or whatever it is that's happening. I do like the happy fire dance thing. I love letting the fire element in me come out. It makes me happy when I'm really enjoying being around someone that's fire or I can focus on my fire element. Thanks for the good thoughts...I'll do the homolateral drill before I get out of bed tomorrow. I'll let you know how it works. Lillie P.S. Will I see you in 3 weeks?

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Hi Lillie, Perhaps you should look at the meridians that are at their high and low points during your sleep (checking the Meridian Flow Wheel which is in the book). Do you know if there is a pattern you have have with these meridians (for instance, undercharged, possibly a blockage or frozen energy) that may be affecting you waking up homolateral. Also look at what time you are getting to bed. I know that I'm a night owl and if I don't watch it, I'm up past 1am and not giving my Liver meridian the rest time it needs to do its job. Also Doc mentioned what's happening in dream time may be setting you homolateral.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Hi michelle, What was the purpose and benefit of the truth test? This may feel like semanitcs but homolateral can't "take over" the body. It is a pattern in which energy does not cross over very well - which doesn't mean that it ISN'T happening either. We all have cross over patterns throughout the body and beyond..... - Michelle Hughes Wednesday, May 30, 2007 6:31 PM RE: Re: Homolateral "lines"? Another thought after I sent my previous message. I have this issue so itcame to mind. Are you sure that when you "fix" homolateral that it is going all the waydown your body. I kept testing fine - strong on the X and weak on theparallel lines showing the crosscrawl had done it's job. My intuition kepttelling me, that's not right. So at CP1, the teachers tested me both withan X and ll on my legs and also with a truth test (looking at the X and llat regular height while saying "I am Michelle"). Guess what?! Yep, I washomolateral. The homolateral fix wasn't making it down my legs. So Ilearned the scissor kick which I do in bed after I do the 3 thumps andbefore getting up for the day.If you're homolateral on one part of your body, maybe when you sleep ittakes over the whole body and you wake up totally homolateral.Just a thought.Many blessings,MichelleH1st year Donna Eden Energy Medicine Certification Program________________________________My original question is why shouldI wake up homolateral in the first place. ---------Orange vous informe que cet e-mail a été contrôlé par l'anti-virus mail.Aucun virus connu à ce jour par nos services n'a été détecté.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Hi Cris, I kept testing strong when just looking at an X at eye level; and weak on parallel lines. But my intuition kept telling me I was still homolateral. So, the instructors had me look at the X and say " My name is Michelle " . The instructors said the truth test showed that I really was homolateral because I should test strong on a truth test. To demonstrate this, they tested placing an X mark on my leg and I also went weak on this and strong on ll on the legs. After doing the scissors exercise, I tested strong all ways on the X and weak on the ll: looking at X, looking at an X at eye level while saying " My name is Michelle " and having an X made on my legs. It makes sense to me that my legs held a homolateral pattern because I have had grounding issues for multiple reasons (physical, mental, spiritual). For instance, I have a coccyx injury that twists it to the left affecting the energy's ability to move up my legs from the earth (Barbara Brennan told me this - she saw the accident in a time line of me at 4yo falling from a swing. I didn't remember it but confirmed it later with my mother who remembers the accident and also with a chiropractor & X-rays). I'm going to an osteopath currently to help that. Also just last week, because I found some changes were not holding even though I was doing Donna's exercises (for example, polarity kept switching back even though I spoon my feet, etc.). I was tested for Vivaxin Syndrome and that turned out to be the case. I had work done on that and seed cells which was amazing as it's the first time in a long time I've felt at ease in my body.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Hey Lillie -- will see you in 3 weeks! It will be fun :)My first thought as to why you awake with your energies running homolateral -- is that triple warmer is activating while you're sleeping. But then, I figure triple warmer is responsible for most things!Those 'tag-ends' ...?Maybe do the homolateral drill in bed, BEFORE you go to sleep......... including circle 8's with your eyes.... You have such focused eyes -- maybe relaxing your eyes too....?See ya soon,Helen (triple warmer flips my polarities all the time. Pisses me off!) Hi Helen, Thanks ...that sounds like a great drill and especially if you are so down you can't get out of bed. That's not usually my case, I've never had a problem making myself get up early.
