I was invited to attend the phone session and did so this week.
The session is an hour later for me than gallen and so I did a half hour of small universe and then the moon meditation before calling in.
I also felt the opening and lengthening of the back very strongly. I however listen to the self-concentration or the euphoria version of self-concentration fairly often so the open, open, open, completely open and its variations is more recently planted in the memory patterns. It is neat that I only use completely open when I'm doing it.
Again things seem to line-up for me. Because in my schedule of reading I'm doing the level III manual. The day after the call-in I read the sections on distance healing and water charging. I read the qigong material in small pieces and digest it a day at a time. Anyways, I memtion this because of gallen's comment on the heat. I didn't have any experience of heat during the call-in, but have on other occassions, and I didn't very strongly when charging water at home for my family (a la taste testing).
I've also had a phone healing with Master Lin before, and the sessions group phone healing was different and a different experience. Partly because, this time I went straight to sleep instead of meditating afterwards.
Getting back to gallen's post, I usually go through the spine straightening, although not usually as Master Lin conducts it. It not something I consciously check off, it's just something that usually comes to mind and I work on as I prepare for the main part of the meditation,.... or even during the meditation 
Just had to pipe in, as usual.
You are perfection.
