Healing Stones

At least that's what I think they are.  I have either found or was given these stones.  The reason why I'm putting them on here is in the hopes that someone will know more about them than I do and what sort of things I'm supposed to do with them.  I've done some searches over the past few years and have come up with nothing.  I'll say what I know about them and leave the rest for someone else to tell me.

Round Rocks
I found all of these.  I just like round rocks and for a time I found these in quick succession.  The three smaller ones are perfectly round.  The small one has a small chip.  The largest isn't a perfect round stone but it the most natural of the stones.


Petrified Wood:
Another found stone that I've had since I was a kid.  It used to be in my parents' garage window for years and then I put it in my room.  It is very heavy for it's size.



Rock with a Partial Hole:
This was also found, but I haven't had it for that long.  What I do know about rocks with holes is very limited.  What I can say I learned from that great guy I met in university.  He said that rocks with holes are used during healing ceremonies.  They are placed on the patient and the illness is sucked out of the person through the hole in the rock.  You'll get some foul tasting stuff in your mouth, usually yellow, which you spit out and the person may be very drained after the procedure. 

Part of becoming a healer involves new healers to go on a vision quest.  Women don't have to because we can naturally already create life which gives us a bit of a "gimme" when it comes to becoming a healer.  Anyways, part of the vision quest is to drill a hole into a stone with nothing but sand and a stick.  Of course, it's very time consuming but your vision quest is complete when the rock is done.  This is mine.



Buffalo Effigy:
This stone was given to me by a cousin that was very close to me when I was a child.  She actually had two of them and kept one for herself while generously giving me this one.  I was told by her aunt that these are actually vertebra from a dinosaur.  These were found by American Natives and worked into what looks more like a buffalo.  These were used by the medicine men to draw buffalo to the hunters to ensure successful hunts.  This one intrigues me because it so obviously has been shaped to form a head and it also must be very old.  I say this because there a concretions of small stones stuck to it.  It would be, what I believe, is the second most important stone for my healing.



Stone with a Hole:
Yes, I have one of these.  I found this one but I don't know when.  I already explained about holes in rocks so I'm not going to state it again.  This stone is definitely the most important one I own.  It's made of sandstone and I found it exactly how it appears in the photos.  I've never done anything with it other than scrub the dirt off.


That's what I got.  If you know any more about what I should do with these or what they mean, by all means, let me know!  I'm putting these on here specifically to get some guidance and every little bit helps.  Thanks!

The First Day

Okay, so I had no official takers yet and to be honest, I suppose that's for the best.  What I decided to do is to focus on my mother-in-law.  She suffers from terribly swollen ankles on a regular basis and since yesterday I've been focused on healing her.  Not that I focus on what's wrong, just the general area.  I feel I'm focusing my energy on the part that needs healing but not the illness.  It's easier to work with a positive energy that fight a negative.  We'll see how that goes.  I will at least know if it does something which is a good way to approach this.  She doesn't know it's happening and I won't let her know I'm doing it.  This should eliminate a placebo effect.

I was also thinking that this would be a great place to write about any other coincidences and other odd phenomenon that occurs.  Ironically enough, today when I went into town with my husband, we went to the casino.  I was sitting there playing my game and I saw a lady who was on oxygen and wearing a hat. I couldn't see any hair and I got the impression that she may have cancer.  I'm not sure but that's the feeling and I'm following my gut. 

Anyhow, to make a long story short, I didn't realize until it hit me upside the head...this is my first "patient".  Like I said, I don't know who she is and I will never know if it works, but what a great way to start!  I can see her and can picture her in my mind...later 50's, blue shirt, glasses, a little heavier set.  I can see her in my mind's eye and I think that's enough.

So now I'm going to still give intent to my mother-in-law but focus more strongly on this lady.  I hope for both that this turns out to be the way to do this.  All I can do is try.

The Start...

I have wanted to become a healer for a very long time.  Well since I was in my early 20's for sure.  I met a great Native Healer when I was attending university, though he never said he was, you just knew.  I always wanted to reconnect with him but somehow that never seemed to turn out.  I've also been blessed to meet a number of other Medicine Men throughout my life and was always given positive feedback and connections with these fellows, though nothing ever happened with that either.

My only other option that I can see is to try something through the internet.  I'm very comfortable working in this format and it feels right to me.  I'm not looking for fame or cash or anything else, I just want to see if I can heal anyone. 

I've been looking into a number of different ways to do it and I would like to do it through distance healing.  I was inspired to try with an article I read by Dr. William F. Bengston.  You can read about his experiment at this website http://www.scientificexploration.org/edgescience/edgescience_02.pdf  It's entitled "Breakthrough:Clues to Healing with Intention" and is on page 5.  You'll find it fascinating. 
 
I'm going to take this one step further and attempt to heal with the power of intent.  I'm only trying to heal physical illness right now.  There are lots of other prayer groups out there that will handle your financial situation, legal issues, love dilemmas, etc.  I'm not interested in that because sometimes the hardship you want to avoid is exactly what you need to go through on your spiritual path to get to the place you really need (not necessarily want) to be.
 
Also with this, please note that I am not a physician of any sort and am making no claim that this will work or that you should stop or change any advice you've received from your doctor.  Anything that is prescribed to you by a qualified medical professional should still be taken as ordered.
 
What I need from you to start this project is something to focus on.  I just feel that I need it.  I need to know your first name and initial (you can just give me your initials if you like), your gender, what is physically wrong with you and where it is on or in your body.  A photo of yourself may also help but isn't necessary.  Send it to my email address I have specifically set up for this at: janisheals@hotmail.ca.
 
Let the experiment begin!

And just so you know...I am neither a kook or a whack-job or some weirdo you would find on the street.  I'm just going to give this a try and if someone finds me in the plethora of stuff on the web then it means this is what I should pursue because it's my calling.

Feel free to leave comments but try to be polite.  Don't ruin this for me and others.
