Addressing Chronic Pain

Pain from Fibromyalgia and Fibroid Tumors

    Johrei never ceases to amaze me! I raise my hand and I just know something good is going to happen for someone. Several weeks ago we had a lovely family over for dinner. They have a teenage daughter and a son who is about two years old.

     No sooner had they arrived when I noticed the father was wincing and holding onto his arm. I asked him what was going on and he explained he had radiating pain from his neck down his arm; mostly on the right, but sometimes going down the left and all the way down both legs. He had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. When he sat down beside me on the couch I automatically raised my hand and started to give him Johrei. About fifteen minutes later he said the pain was gone and he was amazed. I knew that his condition would require more than one Johrei, but it was nice to have the pain alleviated for the moment.

     Then his wife mentioned that she isn't able to sleep well at night because she has fibroid tumors that press down on her spine and cause her pain. Again, this kind of chronic condition requires repeated Johreis, but I offered to see what could be done. I channeled to her back for about ten minutes before they left that evening. The next day she texted me that she had slept through the night and had no pain at all. What an incredible feeling to be of service to others in this way. As I said, no matter how many times healing happens right before my eyes, it never ceases to amaze me.

Johrei Handles the Flu

FLU SEASON 2017

     I came home last week to find my husband looking like death warmed over. He was pale and stretched out on the sofa with a fever. He said his whole body ached and he could barely move. He doesn't usually ask me for Johrei, being somewhat of a skeptic, but this time he did. So, after attending to the kids' homework and dinner, I sat down to give him some Light. 

   

     My husband is pretty tough and his body seems to be pretty resilient. As I gave him Johrei, his body began to relax, the color slowly came back into his face, and he was able to open his eyes without squinting in pain. I think I was there with him for about an hour, then I had to attend to the children again, so I sent him to bed. 

     He works in construction, so he wakes up well before the rest of us. Apparently, he felt so much better that he was able to go to work, because his car was gone the next morning. When he got home that evening he said, he felt so much better, not quite 100%, but well enough to go to work and function. From there his body's immune system took over and the following day, he was back to normal.

     Last night, my six-year-old daughter, who had been looking a little pale and been cranky all day, came in to tell me her throat hurt. She had started coughing and said she just wanted to crawl into bed. I finished up my lesson plans for the week and helped her get into her pajamas and brush her teeth; which she hates. 

     My husband came in and seeing that she wasn't well, offered to give her Johrei. Both of us channeled to her for about an hour and the first thing that happened was that she stopped coughing, so she could rest. Her fever rose a bit and she fell asleep.  

I had her in bed with me all night; giving her Johrei off and on and checking her fever. She didn't start coughing again until about 6am. I sat up and gave her more Johrei. She no longer had a fever. 

     Today she's been her usual self, drawing and painting and squabbling with her brother. She has coughed a few times, but other than that you'd never know that she had been sick all night. Johrei is such a wonderful thing for our family!

Cast Taken Off One Week Early

Car Accident Recovery Hastened

     My right had was crushed and I broke two ribs in a car crash. Following the accident, I received Johrei only three times and I felt much better after each session. The doctor was surprised how rapidly the had healed. He was able to remove my cast one week early.

Eliminating Her Fibroid Tumors

Fibroid Tumors

     A friend of mine came to see me after many years. She came for the express purpose of receiving Johrei, or as we at the MOA Wellness Center call it, OPT, Okada Purifying Therapy. She is a long-time member, but has moved out of Los Angeles, and is not near anyone who could attend to her on a regular basis. She had developed these fibroid tumors that got so big and so bad, that they were interfering with her ability to urinate and evacuate her bowels. Apparently many of the women in her family have developed these tumors, and all of them have had surgery to remove them. My friend wanted to try to get rid of them with Johrei before considering the surgery.

     

     She came for a week, and I had planned to give her Johrei three times a day, but we were having so much fun talking and eating the Japanese food I was cooking that it ended up being only an hour or an hour and a half every day. On day three, she started having a diarrhea elimination. It was strong and forceful and caused her to go to the bathroom a lot, even during the night. 

     I'm happy to report that after that, she could go to the bathroom with no trouble at all. She went home happy.

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.
