Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ Spring Forest Qigong Autoimmune issues and energy work-qigong and healing

Hi All:
Since starting SFQ yrs back, quitting, restarting and trying healing sessions and having to quit those, I decided to do a bit of homework on autoimmune issues.
First, the reactions of my body to SFQ was usually the same...I would get severe reactions of nervous system...anxiety, panic, palpitations...within a short time I found the energy too strong and have to quit: Active exercises, small universe, healing sessions by remote. I've discussed this with many people and have answered varied to its all in your head, work through it, etc, etc.
Looking into Donna Eden's work on Energy Medicine I found that she addressed this issue: the Triple Warmer ( in her conception of that meridian) perceives any outside energy source as a threat due to emotional states in existence or psychological issues (both I imagine seen as blockages). For me this occurs in response to ANY kind of external energy ...chi. She offers techniques that are helpful in the short tern such as sedating triple warmer points and strengthening spleen but these are cosmetic and not long term results, although they can be useful if done over time.
The real issue to helping/shifting/healing consciousness accept chi by removing those blocks is still a mystery to me. I have and continue to lead my life very spiritually and use detachment from mind and witnessing to allow negative thinking to be extinguished over time.
I believe in this system-SFQ- and what it can offer but there are certain types of autoimmune issues that prevent tools such as SFQ exercises, meditations, and healings to be blocked.
And, strangely, because I am a psychologist, I realize something buried is preventing this...and believe me I've tried many things to get at it.
The difficulty is that with my condition, when you try something and it doesn't work its not as if you get no reaction, it actually can cause nervous system reactivity to carry on for at least a day and cause more physical debilitation.
I understand this is unconscious material I am trying to bring up to conscious light for release but I have yet to find the right methodology or resource.
I would really love to hear ideas from folks about this because I want to do all I can do to get well. Already I realize this is a process and maybe it is already breaking up as I learn more and write this.
thanks

Sam,

Please take this as a "this is what I would do, and have done".

Google EFT, Emotional Freedom technique (I think that it is technique, other possibilities may be therapy, treatment) by Gary Craig. I find it compatable with SFQ. Also everything that you need to do EFT is on line.

As I read your post I could not help but look at the word "autoimmune" from a different point of view. Instead of the word representing an attack on the body could this be protection by our body? Our perceptions create our reality. By creating an "us vs. them" mentality we are creating, and or preserving conflict. Whatever and why that conflict may be and at what ever level it may be in.

I know family members who do this to maintain their "victum status". Please note that I am not projecting this, this is what they themselves will say of themselves. Oh for a tape recorder because they deny saying it.

"I" have found SFQ to be wonderful energy work, and would not be without it. For me SFQ is the base and my others tools compliment it, like EFT, eating well, essential oils etc...

I know others will post so I will end my musings here.

To Life !!

Hi marrs:
thanks
Actually have done quite a bit of EFT and some of its derivatives...lots and lots and have addressed permutations of victimization and yes to the protection as well with EFT. Also with prayer and a process of self-talk that creates new neural pathways...Good insights and ideas. And I continue my awareness of/if they are present. thanks.
