I have attended three DreamHealer workshops in the Northwest and have previously posted a few testimonials about my experiences. But there is one factor that I have noticed in my own experiences at these workshops that seemed minor -- and perhaps unique to me -- that I have not mentioned. But I now think it may be of value to other participants as well -- not only at the workshops but in their healing practices as well, so I would like to mention the matter now.

At two of the three workshops that my family and I attended, I easily saw Adam's aura as well as my own energy. At one of the workshops -- the second -- I did not have such an experience, saw no auras or energy and was disappointed because I did see the aura at my first workshop and again looked forward to tangible proof that "it was working." At my third workshop recently at Bastyr in Seattle, I felt like I saw Adam's aura from the moment he walked in and clearly saw it at various times throughout the workshop even when he wasn't drawing our attention to attempting to see it. I also saw much more of my own energy between my hands when we did that exercise as a group.

I have been wondering about why I had such very different experiences pertaining to seeing the energy at each of the workshops I attended and have come to some conclusions in my own mind about why. The lighting in the auditorium at Bastyr was probably the least conducive to seeing energy of the three locations where I experienced seeing auras because Bastyr's room was the brightest, so I think I've eliminated that as a factor.

But I did meditate and pray before the first and third workshops which I did not do prior to the second workshop where I did not experience seeing energy. I personally think that may be the difference and have come to believe that it is important enough to mention here because I wonder if the healing practice may be similarly affected by meditation and/or prayer as was being able to see energy, which is really exciting proof to an energy novice like me about energy because it is so tangible -- we can actually see it! But I only see auras in those group settings at this point. I do faintly see my own energy between my own hands in a dark room. Again, this seems easier after meditation, which I'm really not very good at. I'm still easily distracted, but it seems to make a difference.

Prior to the second workshop, where I did not see energy, I was running late, was frazzled and grumpy -- a lower vibe for sure than the two other workshops where I did see energy.

Hope that helps ...
