I'm hoping somebody can come up with some suggestions to help with my children's asthma. We came back from holiday to a real change of weather which is often dificult for them and tends to catapult them into a cold followed quickly by wheezing. I only know about level 1 so I'm doing some sword fingers on the middle of their chests. I'm aiming it in from the side - that is I sit facing them but to one side and aim my fingers across to their mid chest at an angle of about 45 degrees. Actually I do aim at their lungs as well from this position. (Have I understood it right that it's dangerous to aim from directly in front of them because you shouldn't do this for the heart energy?)

I do the sword fingers for about a minute and then 'grabbing handfuls of extra energy' for 2/3 minutes, perhaps longer. Although Master Lin says I will know when to stop I notice that I don't really know when to - any advice on this?. Afterwards I put some energy back in 9 times as suggested. I have noticed that as I do this I have a cold sensation in my palm with my daughter Alice but not with my son Jack. Any thoughts about what this might mean - for example have I not grabbed enough extra energy.

I found asking them to relax and really concentrating on my love for them was useful.

I have a number of questions.

Am I doing it for long enough?

Would I see any benefits immediately or will it take time? (Not surprisingly when they get seriously wheezy it distresses me and I want to help as quickly as possible)

Is there anything else I can do? They already do some Buteyko brathing which does cetainly help and we have various homeopathic remedies that they take but this is a recurrent and unpleasant problem.

Is this perhaps a suitable time to ask for a telephone healing from Master Lin?

Perhaps one of my problems is feeling somewhat unsure of the effectiveness of what I can do for this particular problem. I can help with stomach aches for example but this is a differnt area of systemic problem it seems and maybe I just expect too much from my limited skills.

Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

Love
