hi jm,
my name is hojun kim, and i will be taking level 4 with master chunyi lin in february
here is some of what i have learned
1) there are no rules when you get higher up , everything is in your mind, any "technique" you try will work if you believe and you have progressed enough
2) scan your animals body like they teach you in level two
3) in traditional chinese medicine, ( i will have my acupuncture/ herbal liscense in march) allergies often have something to do with the kidneys, also the lung controls the skin, and the liver is in charge of the cleaning of the blood, focus on these organs to begin with, if you pick up a blockage then remove it , it's that simple
4) when i treat animals i try to treat them like humans, meaning that i open up the du and ren meridians ( these are the energy channels in the back and front of the body)and try to treat them like humans, of course this is not always possible, therefore i have done everything from holding the animal in my arms to giving it energy from a distance by pointing to it ,etc.
5) try to heal your pet, it will work, review level two fully, work with confidence, feeling, visualization, and as always with love, kindness, and forgiveness
good luck , i hope your pet gets better
