How I did it
How to sleep at least 7 hours a night
It took me
6 months
It made me
good!

How I did it: well, i stopped working a full-time job! that's a big one. now, i'm not in such drastic pain that i can't sleep - not being able to sleep after the car accident was the most hellish experience. now, i have to be aware of the time - try not to stay up so late that i get a second wind. if i try to sleep and it doesn't work, i get out of bed and perhaps take a shower, get a glass of water, read, write, lay on the floor.

How to learn reiki
It took me
2 years

blissed out

How I did it: took reiki one and two with my friend marion. http://www.spiritedgifts.net/ practiced on myself for 21 days in a row with reiki one before taking reiki two. had many friends who also took reiki, so we had reiki circles with each other every week. that was very cool. then, did advanced reiki with my friend geordie. again, attended a lot of reiki circles. that is a great way to keep reiki energy going. http://www.deerspiritreiki.com/home.html Read how I did it…
