What's Meetup?

Maybe it's time for a little less face-to-screen and a little more face-to-face.

What's a Meetup Group?

Meetup Groups are today's support groups, parent playgroups, citizen groups, fitness groups, book clubs, professional groups, and other powerful local groups!

I have been reading everything I can for quite some time and feel that I have abilities I would like to use to help others heal themselves.  However, I am unsure how to proceed.

Why not come to the Houston Energy Healers Meetups? There you can practice healing, share experiences, and receive guidance from more experienced healers from a wide variety of energy healing backgrounds.

 I have no real qualifications in the sense that I am hold no degrees or certifications.

Healing is all about results. It doesn't matter what degrees or certifications you have if the person does not get better. If they do get better, then it doesn't matter either. <smile>

 What do I need to practice in the state of Texas?  How does it work?  Do I have to be LMT to touch people at all in this state?

You don't need a massage license to touch. Without a massage license, though, you may not rub or press on the person. Merely touching is OK.

However, it is not actually necessary to physically touch someone to do a healing. That's why remote healing works so well.

 I'm very confused at the moment.  Thanks so much in advance for any words you can offer.

My best advice is to come to a Meetup, participate, and talk to the healers there.

If you absolutely cannot come to our 3rd Monday night healing sessions or the new 3rd Saturday afternoon healing sessions (starting July 21), you should try to find another good healing group.

For example, you could take a Reiki class and/or attend Reiki shares (gatherings where people practice Reiki and other forms of healing). There are also Reiki meetups.

Reiki is just one energy healing method, but it is widely available. There are Reiki teachers everywhere these days. Some belong to this group.

Most of all, I must stress that however talented you may be, healing is experiential. You need to practice on as many different people as possible, and you need to experience healing by as many people as possible. It's all about the energy--and you need feedback.

One thing we stress is to protect yourself and the person you are working on from unwanted energy transfer during healing. You *never* want to take on their pain or illness (or other problems), and you want to be careful not to transfer any of your issues to them. Also, during a healing, both of you need protection from outside influences.

You *never* want to use your own life energy for healing. If you worked on a difficult case or on several people in a short time, that would quickly deplete your life force and leave you vulnerable to illness or accident.

You should always call upon Divine/Cosmic healing energy to flow through you to the person being healed. There is an infinite supply of healing energy in the Universe, and you receive a healing of sorts by allowing it to flow through you. That allows you to do more healings and help more people.

Maybe you already know those things. I don't know what you have read. One of the values of working in a group is to *feel* what works and what doesn't and to get unbiased feedback from other group members on how they experience what you do.

You can learn a lot during the sharing of experiences after each healing round. Our healers are from a variety of different background, and each has much to contribute to the knowledge and experience that we share.

Newcomers are always welcome. Lots of people have learned to do healing in the group. Others use it as a place to practice what they have learned in healing workshops or to meet like-minded people. And all healers need to receive healing themselves sometimes.

We have a great time, and often some people go out to eat afterward to continue talking.

I hope this helps.
