Each day I ran energy into the tourmaline with great intensity and focus, and would go outside and study it. Soon I started to notice thousands of small specks of color. There were many colors and over time, they shifted and became glassy and eventually gemlike in appearance. This was unfortunately before I bought a digital camera, so I don’t have a "before" picture. Then again at that time, I never have imagined what would happen to that tourmaline. Over the course of about 9 months and lots of energy work, the tourmaline became extraordinary and gem like. Picture one is of that stone today. I could probably take 50 pictures of this crystal to show many of its interesting color features. (BTW, I read on a website, that tourmalines very rarely change color.)

I had some success on a second rough tourmaline. This one was smaller and also a very dark green, but this one had broken edges. Amazingly, the broken edges responded most profoundly to the “healing” as you can see in the bright green area in picture 2). Later I tried this on 3 black tourmalines that had smooth edges, and none of them responded in a way I could see. So far, only very dark green (almost black) tourmalines have shown change, and the broken areas shifted first.

Werner Heisenberg has said that the observer changes the observed. I like to believe concentrated observation has a concentrated effect. Turning an opaque stone to a gem makes it hard for me to doubt this.

I've done an experiment with wheat seeds. I picked out 25 for each tub, used one as the 'control' and left it to sprout unaided. In both tubs the seeds were covered with water, I rinsed them both once then left them. The tub on the right in the picture is the one I sent love to. I said loving and appreciative words as I focused on the seeds; I tried to feel as much love for them as I could. I only did that for about 15 to 20 seconds, once or twice a day.

After 24 hours both sets of seeds were starting to sprout, but then the ones I was ignoring carried on sprouting while the 'loved' seeds seemed to stop! I wasn't expecting that. I kept on loving them anyway, and after two days they started sprouting quicker than the others. It became more obvious as time went by, by about the fourth day the root system of the 'loved' seeds was much stronger and more vigorous-looking than the control group. They also seemed to be connecting with each other almost like the roots were reaching out to each other, but that may be because the way the seeds were more evenly spread round the tub. Also the loved seeds have 12 sprouts, the control group only 9. It's great to see them there in my kitchen,reminding me of the power of love each time I look at them! Now of course I really do love the loved seeds more, because they've responded to me... that's the wonderful cycle that builds up as you apply Love to your life! The response brings more love and it goes round and round, building all the time. Without the inspiration of my seeds, I don't think I'd have thought of using intention on my latest shopping trip with such great results, either!

It's such an easy thing to do, why not try sprouting some seeds and see it for yourself? I believe we need to see these things clearly in order to take in the reality of our power to affect the world by our feelings and intentions. I'll use my seeds next time I do a QT session as inspiration for the 'what you love most' technique!

My next experiment is with fenugreek seeds; they're soaking in the kitchen right now! That should be even better, I'm trying to get the clearest possible results so this time I'm going to use one tub, cover the bottom with seeds, then send only to the seeds on the right of an imaginary line through the centre.

Love is always the answer!
