Hello all who are reading this. I am new to this forum and QT. I haven't healed anybody of anything but I am working on myself....healing foot issues and more. My question is: has there ever been a topic of weight loss tossed around here? I would like to know what successes have there been with folks seeking to control their weight via QT........more specifically, the question might be IF YOU ARE SEEKING WEIGHT LOSS, DO YOU WORK ON THE METABOLISM OR ON THE EMOTIONS or other directions as a focus of intent and attention? Just curious.........and chubby! Thanks for any feed back or case histories you can share.

Hey Barbara, good to see your post.
I need some info on that issue,too.

I am glad to see this post too..... I have been 110 to 155 all my life. Now I am 75 y/o and weigh 210 and miserable. I went to Weight Watchers and gained wt. I went on a 3 day fast lately and that was the only way I could lose. I lost 12 lbs. I have Fibromyalgia and I went on the Guifenison (now Mucinex) diet and lost some of the "lumps and bumps" the book said I would lose. It effected my sinuses so bad I had to quit taking it. My knees were hurting so bad I could hardly walk or get up out of chair. The health doctor said as long as I have all the toxins in my system (stomach) it goes to my legs. He put me on something for my digestion and my colon and I can walk and sit without pain. I also had chronic fatigue and he put me on Adrenal Glands and now I clean my house and I don't want to sleep all day. I would like to have some help with QT group for any help for the wt. lose and Fibromyalgia. Ky. is my place and Faye L. is my name. 75 y/o After getting the book I have tried it and the only healing I seem to do is healing my son's headaches. I bought a green huge bear to use as a standin for distance healing. I thought that would be more life like for my hands to be touching something. If he starts walking I will know I healed the bear. LOL.....

Hi Reva

I'm new to this board as well - I have had two workshops and following the 2nd one got interested in the whole overweight/emotional/physical etc. problem and could it be helped by using QT? (I have been a 'yo-yo' with weight to say the least for most of my life..) Searching on the message board I came across your email. I did email Richard and asked him for info and his views and the underneath is what he emailed me back:

I'm very happy to hear about your success and enthusiasm around weight loss. There is a section in the QT SuperCharging workshop about weight loss, but it has not been a focus of QT overall. From my perspective issues of weight often have to do with malnutrition from the SAD (Standard American Diet) as well as emotional issues and habits. Energy can work miracles, but overall I'd rather see the diet and emotional issues addressed directly.'
< !--color-->
< !--color--> I'm in mind to set up a Healing circle with the aim to address overweightness (caused through a variety of circumstances) - and wondered if anyone here on the message board would be interested to join such a circle?

I await any replies with interest!!!

Love and Light
Herma

I WOULD LOVE TO BE IN THE HEALING CIRCLE, BUT DO YOU DO IT THROUGH DISTANT HEALING???

I would guess so..what with you being in Carolina and me in The Netherlands... Please know I'm new as this as well, so any input from more 'experienced' QT'ers is extremely welcome! Surely with QT we can work miracles? I'm sure we can!

You betcha!! I would like to join in a group on this subject and am happy for your reply in the meantime. MY personal weight issues have been up and down over many years. I relate my issues a lot more to the emotional then the nutritional.......although they do over lap. I medicate (worn out phrase) loneliness and weariness, hurt feelings or happy feelings. It doesn't much matter. But, food is not the enemy. The "sugar", for example, can be cleared out of my system and I still crave the activity and the sensory. I am, I believe, addicted to the food "fix".....not the food. And, THAT, is the hard part to beat. Therefore, I question healing, through whatever means......the base reasons for turning to food. I am not a smoker, a drinker, not even coffee and sodas, do not take any kind of drug...rarely an aspirin, don't gamble, or abuse anything else. Recognizing the pattern is first..........but not the only course to take. And, I don't just cram food. Mine is more selctive in the form of ice cream.......cool, creamy, sweet, sensory to the max! Maybe my question is "where do I find another source of sensory that could replace this one. Hummmm? Well, I do appreciate any feed back or chatting you would like to continue with. Barbara

Hey Herma,
Count me in, all of us, as I carry enought for many others.
I HAVE found that constant work as a healer is helping me drop weight, which very much surprised me...I have found the courage to once again ride my bike, not over hill and dale, but am building up again. I have added martial arts again, was terribly embarassed to find all the focus, speed and heavy bags quite dusy...
Oh, well, they wont be, as soon as my hands harden up again.
Count me in, I both want to lose and to help others lose, if I happen to get there...
Healing hugs with very long arms..........

Hi Dawn,
I so hope we can form a circle for addressing......in whatever way we figure it out.........the issue of weightloss. I think it is more complex then just addressing diet....or we would all be shouting success stories.......instead of looking for a new approach. Being so new to QT........I have to wonder how all of this will unfold. Maybe we can form a circle to meet via our intention and QT at a pre arranged time by all of those interested parties and then pair off by two's (like a buddy system) and send energy to each other. We could have a rotation system so that everybody can have the best and the not so best of healing via all our participants. Just the focus...just the pre arrangement by date and time should have a good positive effect don'tcha think? Let's all get this ball rolling and see ourselves thinner by summer!~ Yahoo!

Hi Herma,
What this forum needs is all we can find of the "I'm sure we can" attitude such as yours. I don't think any of us that are following this forum wants to let this drop from our grasp. We all want to heal and be healed. And this is such a fresh approach and sure beats those old Carbs and fats etc........that we all must have exhausted ourselves with by now. I would like to see us all get something concrete in the works to begin working with each other and untangling all our personal "weight" issues.......singularly and collectively. Feed us more of the "I'm sure we can"........

HI Gemini,
Listen........I would like to suggest something to you separate from the forum. Would you care to write to my email? cinnamon05@peoplepc.com Barbara

Hia, I'm still trying to work the messageboard out...difficult to see who has posted what when - but.. I'm getting there - I think? My 'positiveness' about miracles surely occuring with help of QT is due to reading all the postings here on this board... I'm quite in awe of all these people telling incredible tales of QT working in 'magical' ways. So - taking it that they can't be that different from good 'ole' me...it follows that this should work as well!
I've just finished work here in the Netherlands (am still sitting behind my PC typing this) but once I get home I will get back online and we'll see how well we can get this whole thing 'up and running' Come on - if QT can straighten legs, cure the most incredible things - than surely some 'fat' shouldn't stand in it's way?
Love and Light
Herma -

Hi Zen
Thanks for the positive feedback - with you being an 'addict' could you give us some help with getting this whole thing 'started' so to speak. For instance how is the best way to go about setting up a 'virtual' healing circle? Any experience with this? I think that Reva's suggestion to 'pair off' sounds great, but how can we 'create' more interest in this vast area of 'untapped' QT healing possibilities - I'm positive that great emotional/physical healing can be achieved if we would focus our (loving) attention to our intention to lose weight.

I�ve been your typical �yo-yo� and have varied greatly in weight all through my life, from when I first came into my teens right up till now. Even though I have not particularly �liked� being overweight, I have lived with the effects and accepted it as �one of those things�, and was therefore quite surprised to find myself thinking about this matter in these terms.

QT, the miracle worker, somehow got through to me that I should be sending the energy to myself with complete attention to the intention of �melting away the fat-cells where they are unwanted and not needed� I also have the phrase �Anything I eat or drink helps me melt away unwanted and not needed fat cells� running through my mind whilst I send the energy. I visualize myself at a target weight, and to reach this weight as soon as this is ok for my health.

I have looked through the message board to see if anyone has experience with using QT in this fashion, but except for the message from Reva there is nothing that jumped out at me. To be honest I am quite surprised at this, knowing the huge problems faced by numerous amounts of people and the concern of governments for the huge amount of problems we are creating in our overweight children and as such the foreseen stress which is going to be placed on our health care systems. I would have thought that also on the QT message board it would be a regular occurrence for people to at least enquire!

I have trust in QT and know that this will help me to deal with being overweight - that the energy will go where it needs to and help �solve� whatever the reason is behind being �overweight� (may that be emotional/addictive/physical) and as such I�m looking forward to becoming a healthier person (on both a physical and emotional level).

The setting up of a �healing circle� would be with the specific intent of �excess weight reduction� and with the intent to make this an�enjoyable� experience - where miracles (i.e. weight loss) are the norm of the day.
I look forward to making this the success it deserves to become... I've got big hopes and expectations!!

Hai all

I somehow got 'logged off' whilst posting the above message - the 'anonymous' mail is therefore from me!!
I don't know what I did wrong..sorry... Still it carries all the same sentiments!

To Herma........
I appreciate your "sentiment" and enthusiasm. And, I have the sense that you are grounded and very capable of causing the connections and commitment necessary to this group in its infancy.
Herma, are you well studied in Chakra? If so........where would you apply QT in order to balance a Chakra that might lend to emotional over eating. Am I making sense? Would a person look to just balancing all the chakras? I mean any emotion can be linked to any and all of the chakras. I just have this feeling that that would be a good place to think about when we begin to work as a group (in pairs or whatever). We could seek to find our own imbalance......ie ...I might ask myself what part of my system feels wounded (by others, myself, negative thinking etc.) and therefore is needing to be brought into balance. If I (we) research ourselves and discover places of Unwellness within.. then that is what/where we could ask our partners to send energy to. Thus...energy and intention would be sent to heal an emotionally based "snarl" and potentially could erace or mend the TENDENCY to medicate or even suffocate the distress within. I am rambling.........but does any of this ring bells for anybody else? Can anybody say this better then I just attempted to? Hellllllooo!
