Everything sounds good.
It is perferrable if our friends 'ask' for help. This is one of the first things I learned relative to doing healing work. Offering help sometimes is good, and sometimes one can lose a bit of energy, offering it in the wrong scenerio. Trying to sell it to someone is not a good idea. The asking part was a good thing, as was everything that came together for you. Doing small universe for a bit is very good, and I'm sure you entering that zone was helped by your healing session with Master Lin. Doing a bit of self relaxing and meditative focus before you start is very calming , centering , helps clear the distraction of your surroundings or wherever you are coming from, and takes away any feeling of urgency entering the process. You are more neutral, less in reaction to anything or feeling time issues. Your connection with a master's energy is also something better realized if you take a minute to feel that, which in turn helps your confidence in the session. Sounds great Kev. Your experience sounds nicely familiar.
