Have you assumed energy healers are specially gifted people, perhaps born with unique psychic sight, specially charged hands, or privileged connections to the spirit realm? That’s what I thought for decades, but the truth is, most anyone can learn to offer healing energy to themselves and others, including animals.

How easy is it to learn?

As a certified practitioner and instructor of Quantum Touch® energy healing, I’ve joyfully watched students learn techniques in a matter of hours, enabling them to help themselves and classmates achieve relief from ailments such as lower back discomfort, aching feet, and wounded heart chakras. It’s exhilarating to see students master techniques during a weekend workshop, which lasts just 12 hours.

What’s Quantum-Touch®?

Quantum-Touch® is a five-level program founded by Richard Gordon in the 1970s. The particular modality of Quantum-Touch® that students first study is "Level 1, Becoming Energized," which covers fundamentals used throughout the program. All Quantum-Touch® techniques are remarkably easy to learn and accessible to most everyone, even children can learn them. And they are extremely powerful, even capable of helping people align their own hips and spine, for instance.

Is energy healing new?

Energy healing is an ancient art that’s been part of human experience since the beginning of time. Shamans and spiritualists of all cultures have practiced forms of it over the centuries. It’s something of a lost art that’s now being rediscovered with gusto. Energy healing encompasses many techniques and approaches, but generally, it involves directing Life Force Energy, recognized throughout the world (for example, it’s called chi in Chinese, prana in Hindi), with loving intention.

How does it work?

The basic principle of all energy healing is that the recipient is the true healer. The practitioner offering energy is merely a conduit for Life Force Energy and love. This principle is especially wonderful because practitioners always remain humble, knowing it isn’t us who do the healing, but rather the magnificent Inner Healer of the recipient, which is connected to the vast intelligence of the universe.

A person or animal’s Inner Healer brilliantly uses the received energy in the utmost beneficial ways possible. Results can be miraculous, as well as surprising, when areas other than those of main concern also attain well-being. For example, I might offer energy to your aching shoulder, but if your Inner Healer deems your lungs need energy, you’ll receive beneficial results there too.

Well-being is achieved through resonance and entrainment. As the practitioner steadily breathes, cultivates Life Force Energy, and focuses with loving intention on the area of concern, cells and quantum-level particles within the recipient’s body resonate with this positive energy, entraining to higher vibrational patterns. This results in the raising of the vibration of ailing areas, bringing greater overall harmony to the body, mind, and spirit of the recipient. With increased vibrational levels and harmony, the recipient’s body can better self-heal.

What about remote healing?

One of the most amazing aspects of Quantum-Touch® is the ability to offer energy remotely, or from a distance. Because this energy healing modality works at a quantum level, practitioners can offer healing energy to people or animals as far away as the other side of the globe with as much effectiveness as in-person, with hands-on healing. It’s inspiring for both practitioners and recipients to discover this possibility, signifying the magnificence of our universe and our connectedness as beings. Both practitioners and receivers come to realize our universe abounds with limitless, friendly, healing energies.

Is energy healing safe for practitioners?

When practicing Quantum-Touch®, practitioners don’t lose energy or pick up ailments. The techniques boost the practitioner’s vibration; so, instead of being drained when offering healing energy, we feel more energized and even receive healing ourselves. What’s more, the breathing patterns we use help increase our lung capacity the longer we practice energy healing.

Does energy healing work with Western medicine?

Quantum-Touch® complements the work of Western doctors and other healers. We frequently help people and animals preparing for or recovering from surgery, those on western medicine regimens, and those receiving acupuncture or taking herbs. Quantum-Touch techniques enhance other healing approaches because they serve to harmonize the body and raise the vibrational frequency of areas suffering from discomfort or illness.

Is energy healing for real?

If all this sounds too good to be true, you’ll have to try it out for yourself! When you do so, you’ll find most anyone can become an energy healer. If you have a desire to help yourself and others attain greater well-being, I recommend taking a Quantum-Touch® “Level 1” workshop so you can experience the ease and fun of using these simple and powerful techniques. I welcome you to find a workshop with me and get started.

Energy healing might seem like magic, but it’s really just part of what it is to be human in this vast, loving universe.
