Ovarian Cyst Dissolves

         "Some conditions take longer to dissolve than others," I was told my Johrei members. I was new to Johrei and had recently been diagnosed with an ovarian cyst. I had decided to give Johrei a try for a month and if it didn't work to go ahead with the operation that I really did not want to have. 

        I was working six days a week at the time, but since this was something very serious, I decided that if I was going to do this, I was going to have to make a sacrifice. So, I started spending my one day off at the Johrei Center. At first it was easy. People were so pleasant and the Johrei felt so good. I gave and received all day long. Sometimes I was able to get as many as six Johreis in a day. When there was no one there to receive, I kept myself busy doing odd jobs around the Center. I used the practice to imagine that the external cleaning I was doing was a metaphor for the internal cleaning of my ovaries.

       After several weeks had passed and I hadn't seen any results I began to get despondent. As the weeks went by, it became increasingly more difficult to have a positive attitude. 

       

       One day, I came home after spending all day at the Center and plopped down on the couch. I sat there aimlessly flipping through the channels trying to distract myself from my thoughts. "Am I crazy?" "What was I thinking?" "I can't believe I thought this would work."

       Suddenly, I felt something inside of me explode. Terrified, I went running to the bathroom. I felt a lot of warm, sticky liquid pass from inside of me. It looked like yellow puss and I was completely disgusted. 

       After the episode was over, I decided I would make another appointment with my doctor and follow through with the operation. "Enough of this craziness!" I told myself.

       When I went for my appointment and they checked me out, to my surprise the doctor announced that there was no more cyst! I couldn't believe it and neither could he. It turns out that elimination I had was the cyst dissolving.

       I've never had a recurrence since then. I've been free and clear all these years thanks to Johrei.

ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE/DEMENTIA

Easing Alzheimer's

     My husband and I have been together for a very long time. Our children have all grown up and we are alone together again, only now things are different, because Tommy has Alzheimer's. It's been eight years now and while I've been coping pretty well with it, I still go to a support group once a month. That's where I am able to hear other people's stories and count my blessings that I have Johrei in my life. 

     I was an in-home caregiver for years, and the reason I always had work was because I could handle the patients who were hard to manage. I was given the cases where the people would be up all night rummaging through drawers and refusing to change their clothes or their bedding. They were the belligerent ones that no one else wanted.I was able to calm them down with Johrei.

     Now I do the same with Tommy. If he is refusing care, I just sit myself down on the edge of his bed and give him Johrei. Half an hour later, he let's me change his clothes or his wet sheets without a fuss. He also sleeps right through the night because I give him Johrei every day, sometimes twice a day. 

     I count my lucky stars, because there are others in the support group who had to put their loved ones in a home after only six months. It's Johrei that's allowed him to stay home with me.

Post-dialysis Pain Relieved

Quick Relief

   
     We were having our usual Thursday evening Johrei gathering at the club house when, Adela, a woman in her late sixties came bursting in through the door crying and begging for help. She had just finished 5 hours of dialysis, which she receives three times a week, and she was in extreme pain all over her body. We sat her down and two of us immediately raised our hands and began channeling Johrei to her. She calmed down as the pain began to subside. Gradually, her desperate sobbing slowed and then stopped completely. Twenty minutes later, she was a completely different person. She was laughing and joking with all of us as if nothing had ever happened.

A Common Cold

My Cold Evaporated

       After so many years of giving and receiving Johrei, one would think that I would no longer be impressed by its effects; but that's no the case. I continue to be amazed that by the simple raising of a hand and the transmission of energy, the physical body heals. 

       Two weeks ago I had a cold. My nose was running and I kept sneezing. I blew it so many times that it became irritated and red. I had planned to volunteer at the MOA Healing Center in Culver City that day, but given my condition, I decided to become a recipient instead. 

           As I received the Johrei, which they call OPT, Okada Purifying Therapy, I gradually began to feel relief. My head felt lighter and I had more energy. During the second session, I literally felt my cold evaporate. My nasal passages dried up and I had no more need for a tissue, because my nose was no longer running. 

Anxiety & Depression

                                     My Anxiety and Depression Vanished

         I was the type of person who only believed in what I could see, touch, smell, and feel. Only things that were scientifically proven were valid in my world. When my boyfriend talked about Johrei and how healing it was, I laughed at him. 

         When I had my first panic attack, I was petrified. Suddenly, I didn't recognize myself. As the panic attacks got worse and more frequent, I found myself disassociating from my body. One day it happened at work. When I came to, I was about to give some medication to the wrong client! I immediately dropped what I was doing and ran to the bathroom crying. I stayed in there so long, that they called the night supervisor to intervene. She found me in a rattled and anxious state and suggested I go see a psychiatrist and get some medication to help me. 

        I didn't take her advice and things got worse. I couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, drive or function at all. I just laid in bed crying all the time. When I didn't go to work, my coworker got worried about me. One of them eventually came looking for me and convinced me to go see a doctor. I made an appointment the next day, got my diagnosis, and was put on Prozac. I took the pills for one month, but they left me feeling like a zombie. I couldn't stand it, so I went back to the doctor and told him I wasn't going to take anymore anti-depressants. He told me how wrong I was and that I would be back in no time to get a refill.

       I walked out of his office scared to death; wondering what in the world I was going to do. That's when I remembered the Johrei Center that my old boyfriend used to talk about. At that point I figured I had nothing to lose. I have no idea how, but somehow I got myself there. I met the Center Head and after we spent some time talking about my situation, he offered me Johrei. 

        I was skeptical, but desperate, so I agreed. He began on the front and the only thing I felt was my head getting heavier and heavier. Finally, it felt so heavy that it felt like I was never going to be able to get up again. When he asked me to turn around, I snapped out of it for a second, and turned around. That's when I realized that I felt better! I felt like myself again. All the anxiety and depression was gone. It was unbelievable! I didn't know what it was or how it worked, but believe me, from that day onward, I was sold. That was over 20 years ago. My depression never returned and since then I have been able to help many others with Johrei. I am so very grateful.

Angry at the World

          In my opinion, my childhood and family life were above average. Although I was privileged, I was angry.  I dreamed of escaping from everything.  I always thought it was the real world that I hated.  From the time I started pre-school as a child I was rebellious. I was defiant. I simply couldn’t be controlled. I always felt that there was something wrong with the system.

          At nineteen, I left my small town and drove to the big city of Los Angeles.  I immediately hated the place. Then a friend introduced me to Johrei. As I received Johrei, my life improved.  I was happier; I felt peace like I had never known before.  My hatred and anger towards many things had faded away.  For example:  I had always had a strained relationship with my father.  Suddenly, he started calling me and talking to me without any conflict.  We’ve been good ever since. But it’s odd right?  I mean my behavior towards him hasn’t changed. I don’t want to jinx it so I don’t mention it to him.

          I get Johrei whenever I can. I always feel good when I get home.  My mind is always clear and calm after Johrei and my quality of life improves. I also now have a sense of compassion towards so many people I wouldn’t have noticed before.

Thyroid

No More Thyroid Medicine Required

          I took medicine for my thyroid for over 15 years. I was put on it when I was a teenager and continued taking it on a daily basis. When I discovered Johrei, I was having all kinds of other problems. My shoulders were stiff and sore all the time, my kidneys were beginning to show warning signs according to my lab reports, and I was beginning to hunch over like an old woman!

          The Johrei people recommended I get a lot of Johrei on my kidneys, explaining that the kidneys were key to maintaining a pure and clean body as they are responsible for removing the uric toxins.

            I began getting Johrei regularly. I went as often as I could, even though I was working full-time. It was worth it to me to give it a try. Slowly but surely, I began to feel more relaxed. My shoulders would feel lighter after Johrei, I slept soundly and awoke refreshed in the morning.

            The next time I had lab work done, the doctor was pleased to tell me that my kidney function was looking more normal. He was also surprised, because my thyroid seemed to be improving. He reduced my dosage and that’s how it went, bit by bit, until I weaned myself off the medicine all together.

            

           Now I’m in my 70s and the only thing I have is a little bit of high blood pressure. Johrei is good for that too, so I continue to give and receive Johrei as often as I can. I’m active and full of energy and I have Johrei to thank for that.
