2006 UPDATED PRACTITIONER AND INSTRUCTOR REQUIREMENTS
If you are a Certified Quantum-Touch Practitioner / Instructor or are
interested in becoming certified as a Practitioner or Instructor, please take
note of the newly revised requirements.

UPDATE FOR QUANTUM-TOUCH VIDEO WORKSHOP FACILITATORS
Quantum-Touch is pleased to announce that a simplified accounting method is now
available.
The Video Workshop Facilitator now has the option to have all Video Workshop
participants pay them directly. The facilitator may opt to send us only
the amount due to Quantum-Touch. For example, a facilitator may send only
$25.00 per participant for a "Certificate of Completion" and course
credit. Or, if a DVD package is purchased, the facilitator would send us
the remaining amount after deducting the $40.00 facilitator fee from the total
purchase order to QT.
If a workshop participant prefers to use his/her credit card for their
registration fee or QT product purchase, the facilitator of that workshop may
supply a personal credit card number for the reimbursement of the $40.00 per
person facilitator fee. This amount will be credited back to the
facilitator's credit card at the time the Video Workshop processing is completed.
This simpler accounting method is intended to eliminate waiting for a
reimbursement check. It also gives more flexibility to the facilitator.
If you have any questions, or would like more information, please contact Kathy
Curtis at Kathy@quantumtouch.com.

QUANTUM-TOUCH LANDMARKS
QT has crossed a few landmarks. We now have over 25,000 on our email
list. We are just now getting our 20,000th post on the message board, and
have just crossed over the 2500 member mark on the board as well. We have
classes and events in about 25 countries, and our instructor base is doubling
each year. We have so much gratitude for where Quantum-Touch is going. That
said, we are still in our infancy and plan on making a real difference in the
world.
2. The Day I Learned Distant Healing - by Richard Gordon
Back in 1978 I was invited to show a draft of my new book, "Your Healing
Hands: The Polarity Experience" to a publisher. This was great news.
The bad news was that my car had broken down and I needed a ride. My friend
Mark volunteered to take me over the winding highway from San
Jose to Santa Cruz,
CA.
On the way back, Mark asked me if I might be able to give a healing to his big
toe. He explained that it had become quite swollen and ugly, and that he had no
idea what was wrong with it. Without a second thought I volunteered to
give him a healing session while he was driving. Now I had never heard
about distant healing and had little reason to believe it would work, but then
again, I had no idea of what was possible or was not possible.
Back in those days, I would rapidly rub my hands together in order to stimulate
the flow of life-force energy since I did not yet know how to run energy as we
do now. Although I did not understand why the process worked, I did know
that was valuable. (I'll explain later) I speedily rubbed my hands
together and held them apart feeling the field between them and imagined his
big toe was between my hands. Since he was doing this great favor for me
it was natural to feel tremendous gratitude and happiness as I did this.
Within seconds he yelled out, "What the #$%^@ are you doing to my
toe?" When I asked him to explain, he said that it started throbbing like
crazy and it even felt painful for a moment. I saw Mark again about a week
later and he explained that his toe rapidly lost its inflammation and was
looking good again.
Observations:
**Healing is such a natural process; you don't have to study QT or any other
method to be able to start generating some wonderful healing. Of course
training can improve your ability and consistency of results.
**When you rub your hands together, you bring tremendous sensation and attention
to your hands. This is a mechanical way to run energy if you don't know
sweeping and breathing. It only lasts a short time before you need to do
it again, but it does work.
**Focused love and gratitude will always assist in any healing process.
Do play and experiment with your sessions. Quantum-Touch is a system that
is always learning and expanding in its understanding.
Much Love,
Richard
3. Practitioner Insights
(1) Self-Healing - Self-help for the practitioner: Focus on the area of
the body with the issue with intention and focus on the inhale to bring the
life force energy into the chakra of that area (instead of your hands). On the
exhale, imagine all the life force energy pushing outward through every cell,
organ and system in that area. The intention here is that all discordant
energies are being balanced. White light seems best, but allow for that
to shift and "go with the flow" if the color seems to shift. I
usually feel heat coming into that area of my body. I feel physical sensations
as the cells and organs soak up the healing light and remember their wholeness.

(2) I have energized water and had the person drink it before running the
healing energy directly and noticed a quicker response from the client.
Tammy Riopel

(3) I envision infinite hands "pancaking' while involved in a
session. These infinite hands are surrounding not only the area of
concern for the client, but also the whole body of the person as well.
These hands are chocked full of healing energy and with every breath I imagine
the hands "glow with good energy." I know that the client is
healing himself through the energy of many a helping hand.

(4) A tiny difference in the "downwards" sweeping: I have
noticed that if (instead of going down from the head to the shoulders, arms and
hands) I go down from head, neck, chest to the heart chakra, then across the
shoulders down the arms and to the hands, then I have an increased sensation in
my hands.

4. Could Your Pain Really Be Guidance from Your Intuition?
A few months ago, I got a question/concern from a student who had been running
energy for someone with a headache and afterward she got a headache. Then
a few weeks later, she worked on someone with back problems and she all of a
sudden developed an aching back. She was very fearful and thinking that
she was doing QT wrong and scared to continue her practice.
At the time, I suggested that she really concentrate on the sweeping techniques
to get herself very grounded because Richard Gordon, in the Interactive Video
Workshop, teaches that the sweeping technique automatically grounds us and
protects us from taking on the energy of others.
Today I had a different insight into the possible cause of those mysterious
pains.
Last year, I was working with a dog who had chewed a horrible sore into her
right paw. No one could figure out what was causing her to do it and
nothing was helping to make her stop. After running distance energy on
her for several days, I was pondering her problem and got the idea that she had
a painful nerve in the area, one that wouldn't show up on X-Rays or be apparent
in any way. I got very excited and decided to focus my thoughts on that
idea while running the energy.
Later that evening, as I was preparing to work on the dog, a nerve in my right
had started twitching and jumping for no reason. This had never happened
before and it only took a few minutes to understand that this might be what the
dog was feeling and I switched my attention to the idea and went to work.
The dog stopped chewing her paw and was totally healed up in a few weeks.
As this story came to mind today, I followed back to several times when I have
felt a pain in my body that seemed to reflect the pain of someone I was trying
to help. This new insight suggests that I might be receiving
"directions" from my intuition, because if I pay attention and run
energy based on the location and feel of these mystery pains, my energy feels
more successful and my clients heal more quickly.

5. A Creative Approach for Teaching Quantum-Touch to Children
Last month Linda Liefting and I, who are both Quantum-Touch Instructors and
Practitioners from the Netherlands,
organized a Quantum-Touch workshop for children. Because we believe that
Quantum-Touch is so effective and so easy to learn, we wanted to teach our own
children the technique. We invited our own kids and their best friends. The
ages ranged from 7 to 10 years. So we started with 6 kids.
In the Netherlands
there is a well known TV series for children called The Winx Club. It is about
fairies, witches, heroes and monsters. It has attracted admirers among
both girls and boys. The fairies have magical powers. To hold the
children's interest and to make it fun, we paired the Quantum-Touch techniques
with some of the more popular characters from the TV show. The children
always tell us which fairy or hero they want to be while the TV-show is
on. Each fairy has to do with a magical power like: fire, the sun and the
moon, love or music. The songs from the show fit perfectly with the
Quantum-Touch energy and the techniques. We created a two hour training
for the kids, with an instruction card and a magical Quantum-Touch certificate.
The kids loved to participate. Within a couple of minutes their hands were
glowing and some of them had tingling hands. We had to feel all their hands.
They practiced and treated each other for 2 hours, ending with the
treatment of a little friend from school with a problematic ankle. This boy was
happy that they stopped treating him because "his legs were on fire".
They could memorize all techniques very well, because we asked them which fairy
they wanted to try and what the power of the fairy was. We called the 4-4
breathing the fairy-breathing, the 2-6 breathing the heroes breathing, and the
fire breathing the Kikko breathing. They also used the art, music and colors
with no problem. In the 2 weeks after the workshop they treated each other,
themselves, a dog that was falling all the time in his house and they treated
their families.
Two of our goals for this training were to have children want to help each
other, as well as themselves. For instance, they could help someone at
school who has pain and can help themselves when they have a problem. Both
goals were reached. They don't step over somebody who falls, but they stop and
ask "where does it hurt"? They help and "chase the pain".
We have planned our next workshop with 12 kids. At the end of the workshop, the
kids will treat their own parents. We have plans to talk to the teacher in
their school so they understand what the children are doing. If they are
interested, we will teach more children to take care of each other. The local
newspaper interviewed us about this subject. This is a start of our vision for
the future with Quantum-Touch, all inspired by the vision of Richard
Gordon.

6. Quantum-Touch and the Blind Cat
In early October of 2004, my dog found a half-dead cat while we were hiking in
the forest not far from our home. I took it to an emergency Veterinarian
and was told that she had a fever, was underweight, dehydrated, and
lethargic. She also had signs of abuse and neglect. She had a band
of skin around her neck where the hair doesn't grow because it looks like she
had worn a collar that was too tight. She had a nasty scab at the end of
her one inch tail, and she was absolutely terrified of people.
When I got her home from the Vet, I quarantined her in the guest bedroom.
After about 24 hours, she started exploring the room and began bumping into
everything. She was blind! During follow up visits with our family
Vet, I was told that "Maggie", as I named her, would probably never
regain her sight.
During the first three months in our home, I ran energy on her every day using
Reiki techniques. She slowly regained her eyesight to where she could see
six to eight inches away.
After my first Quantum-Touch class at the end of January 2005, I started using
Quantum-Touch techniques on Maggie daily. Over the next three to four
months, her sight improved to about three feet.
During her first visit to the family Vet in October of 2004, she tried to bite
everyone who touched her. During her annual visit to the Vet in 2005, I
ran energy on her using Quantum-Touch. After about twenty minutes, she
became more like a beanie-baby than the terrified, wild kitty from last
year. She let the doctor and technicians do whatever was needed without
complaint.
Maggie is a wonderful teacher.

7. Sciatic and Hip Pain Relieved in Fifteen Minutes
My wife began to have mild discomfort in her left hip and hamstring. She
continued to work several long days as a Nurse and yesterday awoke with severe
sciatic pain traveling down to her left heel. She had to go to work so I gave
her a short treatment. Several hours later she called to report that she was
pain free and very happy.

8. Pain Relief for Ectopic Pregnancy
A friend of mine has a suspected ectopic pregnancy and is in the hospital while
they do tests and decide what to do.
I went to see her and we did about 40 minutes of EFT on her emotional state as
she is very scared and upset. The EFT made her feel much calmer and more
peaceful. She told me that she was in a lot of pain in her stomach and rated it
about a 7. She hadn't slept properly for days because it hurt so much and the
painkillers she had been given barely made a difference.
I did 25 minutes of Quantum-Touch on her stomach. I also asked her to put her
intention into the pain and allow it to soften. She needed to tell her body
that she had received the message that she needed from the pain and is acting
on it so it is ok to let it go.
The pain went from a 7 to what she called "discomfort" in 5 minutes.
I asked her to rate again and she said it was a 5.
After another 5 minutes, the pain went into her chest, so I moved there and
then back to her stomach again. After 10 minutes it was a 2 and at the end of
20 minutes it was ZERO! I did 5 more minutes to see if there was any more help
I could add and to make sure the pain had definitely gone.
When I left I noticed that her cheeks had their color back. When I arrived she
was very pale and drained, and as I left she looked so much better. She also
said she was looking forward to a good nights sleep.
I'm going back tomorrow to make sure she is ok. Hopefully she will have the
results of the tests back then so we will know how she is. I'm so impressed.
This is only the fifth person I have worked on and to get results like that and
to be able to help people is the best feeling in the world.

9. Distance Healing Success - Three Time Zones Away
A client called me about a swollen lymph node. It was very swollen and very
painful. This was after a month of treatments elsewhere without success. The
client asked me to try remote energy work.
This client was 3 time zones west of me. I did the energy work when I first
woke up in the morning. I figured the client would be in a pretty open state at
3am, their time.
Here's what I did:
First I would get my body physically buzzing with energy, with my hands
tingling strongly.
Next, I recalled a picture of the client.
Then, using the image of the client as an aid, I intended my buzzing
energy-hands to the physical body of my client, placing them on the affected
area.
I repeated this for three mornings and once on the first night, for about 15-30
minutes per session. However, one session went over an hour.
By the third day the client had to take off the wrappings because the energy
buzz was pulsing uncomfortably through the swollen area.
Also, by the end of the 3rd day, the affected area looked normal. I never saw
what it looked like swollen, but afterwards was told it was really nasty
looking.
On an interesting side note, the client had indications of the start of an
asthma attack the first day. My energy hands went intuitively to his upper
chest and throat that first evening. The attack never happened.
I just love how patients can heal themselves in the presence of an energy
catalyst!

10. Self Healed Knee and a Surprising Delay
Yesterday, my right knee hurt so badly that I could not climb the stairs to my
office. I had to take a chance on the elevator (It has stuck in the past
between floors).
Today, I ran energy for 3 minutes on my right knee just after my morning meditation
at 5:30am. This is my 2nd week knowing Quantum-Touch. When I got to work in the
morning I still could not walk up the stairs.
After my afternoon meditation at 2:30pm I was able to go up and down the stairs
3 times without any pain. I am so grateful for Quantum-Touch.

11. Asthma Attack Prevented
At my daughter's wedding on 3rd December 2005, our young cousin who is 21 years
old approached me and said that he was worried because he left his puffer at
the hotel and feared he was heading for an asthma attack.
We approached the reception staff that immediately made plans to get him a
puffer from the nearest chemist. In the meantime, I asked if he was open to me
giving him Quantum Touch healing. I explained quickly what that would entail.
He happily agreed and I asked him to tell me as the pain moved about his body
so I could 'chase' it. I also told him to visualize the pain leaving his
body as he breathed out, and that he would hear me breathing heavily at the
same time.
The pain and tightness started in his abdomen, moved to his chest, then to his
throat and finally to the side of his neck. This took all of about 5-7 minutes
and he told me that he felt 100% better. In fact he said he believed he would
not need the puffer that night. I advised him to keep it handy and to use it as
a spare for when he goes out.
He was most grateful and I was amazed at how quickly he got relief from it. I
think some of it has to do with the person receiving the healing being open to
it.
Bless you for sharing this wonderful gift with so many people.

12. Helping a Person Sleep with Quantum-Touch
My (25 weeks pregnant) spouse had trouble sleeping due to anxiety from stress.
Symptoms included rapid heartbeat, thoughts recurring to and revolving around
the problematic issue, as well as a feeling of pressure in the center of the
chest. Being a skeptic, she accepted me doing Quantum-Touch on her after three
virtually sleepless nights.
After a 20 minute treatment (forehead and heart chakra) in the middle of the
4th night, she got the first slice of sleep since the start of the problem, and
a after 45 minute treatment (forehead, temples, heart chakra, and occipital
ridge) before the 5th night she was able to get a full night's sleep. She has
slept well since (nights 6 and 7).
