Aloha Claire,
I'm sorry you’re feeling disappointed.
This Forum is set up as a place that those studying SFQ can come to hear and share questions, stories, and experiences with SFQ. There are millions of different ways to help people heal available in the world. There is also a tendency in all of us to suggest any method we are familiar with to help a person’s specific situation. This is a wonderful act of kindness, and at the same time may not deepen the Forum members’ knowledge or experience with SFQ. In those cases our members do a good job sending a side-email suggestion or posting a URL out of respect for other members of the Forum. This has nothing to do with honesty or openness, but rather of focus.
I remove about 2 or 3 posts a year. Not a whole lot. Most are people trying to sell a chi machine on eBay, going off-subject into other modalities, artifacts, or promoting a new diet.
I don't remember the post you are referring to. I'll generally email the poster and suggest they email alternative suggestions to the person off-forum, or inform them the post was not appropriate. I apologize if I did not do it in this case.
Your posts all the way back to 2001 have asked good questions and generously shared your experiences with integrating SFQ into your busy life. I’m sure the one of which you speak was put out there with good intentions also. Thank you.
Much Love, Shawn
